I jogged the steps to the rooftop deck with a bottle of champagne and two glasses. I wasn't sure what we were toasting to, except another amazing night together.

I got there just in time to see Scarlett standing by the pool, her bare toes curled around the edge, and her fingers playing with the bottom of her dress. With a challenging look in my direction, she lifted her dress up and off. She was naked underneath. I got a quick glimpse of the bare skin before she executed a graceful dive into the water.

I wanted to join her. I threw my suit jacket over a chair, unbuttoned my cuffs, then the buttons down the front of myshirt. I shrugged it off, toed off my shoes, and shoved down my pants.

Scarlett shot to the surface with her eyes closed. She smoothed her hair back, opened her eyes, and curled a finger in my direction. "Come here."

I didn't want to appear too eager, but I was. I dove in, pursuing her like a shark searching for its prey.

She shrieked when I snagged her ankle. She kicked, but I was able to move up her body and pull her against me.

When I came up for air, her cheeks were flush.

"You feel good. You drove me crazy on that dance floor."

"Yeah?" she asked with a sultry smile.

"You know how you affect me."

She looped her wrists around my neck. "I dance for me, not anyone else."

I growled. That made it hotter somehow. A woman who was comfortable in her own skin was attractive. She didn't need to tease me.

"I wasn't aware that you were naked under that dress, or I would have taken you to a dark corner and had my way with you."

She gave me a look. "While my brother was there?"

"Maybe not then. But when he left." The head of my dick nudged her entrance, and we both stilled. With one move, I could be inside her, filling her up, making her mine.

Scarlett raised a brow. "Do we need a condom?"

"I'm clean." And more than okay with going bare inside of her. I trusted Scarlett.

"I am too. I'm on birth control."

That was all the encouragement I needed to slide inside her.

Her breath hitched.

"I've never experienced anything hotter than feeling you from the inside."

Scarlett let her head fall back, her hair trailing in the water.With her floating on her back, I watched the spot where we were joined as one. "Please fuck me," Eli."

Nothing compared to fucking her in the pool with her spread out before me. I kept a tight grip on her ass as I thrust inside her. I was barely able to hold onto any control.

We moved together as one. Her hips meeting mine. The tingle began in my spine, and when it threatened to take over, I reached down and pressed on Charlotte's clit. She bit her lip, arching into me as she went over, her walls spasming.

I couldn't resist the pull and let go, following her over. When our breathing slowed, I pulled her into my lap and carried her to the hot tub. I barely noticed the flash of cold air on the walk.

Scarlett giggled, then sighed as we sank into the warm water. "This is heaven."

"I like to think so."

We sat like that, her in my lap for a long while, until our fingers wrinkled.

"Mac mentioned me building a house on the property. Not now. But eventually. He's going to draw up the plans."

"You don't like the penthouse or our rooftop deck?" Scarlett asked softly.
