“I’ll be waiting,” he said in a gruff voice, and when she glanced down, she saw the outline of his erection through his cargo shorts.
“Asher?”
“Yes?”
She drew a deep breath. “What are we doing?”
He blew out a rough sigh. “Enjoying each other while we’re on the island. Can you do that?”
She nodded, ignoring the drop in her stomach. She might not agree with his reasons why they couldn’t have more but neither would she miss out on what he was offering. And if a part of her hoped he’d come around when their time here ended? She’d just have to get over the disappointment when that didn’t happen.
Knowing he expected an answer, she looked into his handsome face and nodded. “Yeah. I can do that.”
Relief washed over his tense facial muscles and he actually smiled. “Good. Now hurry up and come to my bed.”
His need inspired her own, and she rushed up the stairs to take care of the dog and shower so she could get back to Asher. Before he had too much time to think and changed his mind.
Chapter Seven
While Nikki was handling the dog, Asher went to his room. He walked to the bed, turned down the sheet and comforter, and settled on top to wait.
He had no intention of overthinking things, deciding his usual MO wouldn’t work when it came to Nikki. He was done waffling. He was all in. For now. As all in as he could be with a woman whose time on the island had an end date, even if he didn’t know how soon that day would come. He’d deal with the repercussions of diving into a relationship with her later, both with her and with her brother.
Luckily, he didn’t have to wait long for her to arrive. One light knock and Nikki entered his room, stepping inside and shutting the double doors behind her. Her long tee shirt hit mid-thigh, leaving her tanned legs bare. That same thin cotton made her hardened nipples show through the sheer fabric, and his mouth watered at the thought of taking each one into his mouth.
She walked toward him but stopped halfway across the room and studied him, eyes wide, as if she expected him to change his mind and ask her to leave. He’d certainly sent enough mixed messages since they’d met for her concern to be valid.
He crooked a finger. “Get over here,” he said, leaving no doubt about his intentions.
She stepped over to the bed, her gaze darkening as she looked at his erect cock threatening to burst through his boxer briefs. He had no intention of hiding what she did to him. Instead, he pushed his underwear down his legs and kicked them off. Naked now, he gripped his erection in his hand and squeezed, gliding his palm up and down, stoking his desire.
Nikki stared at the display. She licked her lips, then reached for the hem of her shirt and pulled it over her head, revealing her bra-less breasts and, when she removed her silk shorts, her lack of underwear beneath.
The sight made his own mouth water. He’d already tasted her pussy and licked her through her climax, yet the sight of her beautiful curves and neatly trimmed sex set him on fire.
“You better not have run into anyone on your way here.” Normally, nobody wandered the house at night, but he didn’t want Corey getting a glimpse of what belonged to Asher. Jesus fuck. That was taking things too far. He was better off focusing on having her now.
She shook her head, her hair flowing over her shoulders. “Nope. I didn’t see a soul.”
“Good. Now get up here.”
Naked, she put one knee on the mattress and pushed herself up. He grasped her beneath her arms and pulled her on top of him, her warm body covering his. He gave himself a second to enjoy the feel of her curves fitting perfectly against his harder muscles and to focus on the light kisses she pressed along his jaw.
Though he’d planned to be the one tasting, her tongue traced a path along his neck, then collarbone before moving lower. She nuzzled his chest with her nose and lips before she licked and circled first one of his nipples, bringing it to a hard peak, before starting on the other.
Pleasure took hold and his hips jerked, desire coiling inside him. He wrapped her hair in his fist and tugged. “Come on up, Nikki. I have plans for you.”
Instead of complying, she placed a hand on his chest and held him in place. “Nope. It’s my turn,” she said, eyes glittering, the enjoyment she took in her actions obvious. She went back to her torment, wrapping her tongue around his nipple once more.
His body throbbed, the need to bury himself inside her clawing at him. “Payback’s a bitch,” he warned her, treating her to another hard tug on her hair until she let out a strangled moan.
