“Uhh … Okay, fine.”

“Great.”

I picked up my jacket as she went to get her bag. On our way out, I called Jake to inform the captain about my arrival.

The sun glistened off the calm waters as we cruised along the coastline. My yacht cut through the waves effortlessly, as she stood at the edge of the deck, her silhouette outlined by the fading sunlight, her hair catching the breeze. She was breathtaking, and the sight of her stirred something deep within me that I could no longer deny.

I walked up behind her, the heat of the day still lingering in the air, but it was nothing compared to the fire that burned between us. Without thinking, I reached out and placed my hands on her shoulders. She tensed for a moment, but then relaxed into my touch, leaning back slightly against me.

"You’re quiet," I murmured, my voice low as I leaned closer, my lips brushing against her ear. "What's on your mind, Luna?"

She turned her head slightly, her eyes meeting mine. There was a softness in her gaze, but also something deeper—something that mirrored the same longing I felt.

"I’ve been thinking about us," she admitted, her voice barely above a whisper. "About how complicated this is. How it shouldn’t be happening, but …" Her voice trailed off, and she sighed.

"But you can’t stop feeling it either," I finished for her, stepping closer, until my chest was against her back. My arms wrapped around her waist, pulling her closer. She didn’t resist, and the warmth of her body against mine made me yearn for her more.

"No," she whispered, her voice trembling with emotion. "I can’t."

I turned her gently to face me, my hands sliding down to rest on her hips. Her breath caught as she looked up at me, her eyes filled with both desire and uncertainty. I leaned in slowly, giving her the chance to pull away if she wanted to—but she didn’t. Instead, she tilted her head up, closing the small distance between us.

Our lips met in a slow, deliberate kiss. It started slowly, almost hesitant, like we were both trying to navigate unfamiliar territory. But the moment our mouths touched, something ignited between us—a fire that we couldn’t control. The kiss deepened, becoming more urgent, more desperate. I pulled her closer, needing to feel every inch of her against me. Her hands tangled in my hair, pulling me even closer, as if she couldn’t get enough either.

We broke apart, both of us breathing heavily, but neither of us moved away. "Orion …" she whispered, her voice shaky with emotion. "This … this is wrong."

"Maybe," I murmured against her lips, "but it doesn’t feel wrong. Not when I’m with you."

She looked up at me, her eyes searching mine for something—answers, reassurance, I wasn’t sure. But all I could give her was the truth.

"I want you, Luna. I’ve wanted you ever since I laid eyes on you. I can’t fight it anymore."

Her eyes softened, and with a tender touch, she lifted her hand to gently cradle my face.

"I want you too, Orion. But what about …"

"Shh …" I silenced her with another kiss, not wanting to talk anymore, not wanting to think about the consequences. All that mattered was this moment, this connection between us that neither of us could ignore.

I swept her up in my arms, carrying her below deck to the private cabin. The door closed behind us with a soft click, and the world outside faded away. It was just us, alone in this small, intimate space. I set her down on the edge of the bed, my hands lingering on her hips as I looked down at her.

She reached for me, pulling me down with her, as she lay back against the soft sheets. Our lips met again, and this time, there was no hesitation. No doubt. Only the need to feel closer, to be closer. My hands roamed over her body, exploring every curve, every soft dip of her skin. She responded to my touch with quiet gasps and soft moans, her fingers digging into my back, as if she couldn’t get enough.

Clothes were shed, and soon we were wrapped around each other, lost in the heat of the moment.

My fingers slowly navigated their way into her wet pussy.

“Mmmm …” she moaned.

“I’m about to cum.” I stopped because I wanted her to reach her peak only when I permitted her to.

Moving Luna around, I bent her back, her body arching beautifully as I grasped both her hands with one of mine, pulling her hair gently with the other. She gasped, her moans already escaping her lips, raw and unrestrained. I slid into her, and her voice caught in her throat before spilling out in breathless, urgent sounds that only drove me further.

"Orion ..." she moaned, her voice trembling, breathless.

"You feel incredible, Luna," I groaned, thrusting deeper. Her moans only fueled the fire, making each movement more desperate, more intense. I could feel her body responding to mine, every shudder, every gasp, pushing us both closer to the edge.

"Don't stop ... please ... don't stop," she begged, her head tilting back, eyes half-closed in bliss. Her body trembled, her legs starting to shake as I gripped her tighter, the intensity between us building with every second.

"You like that, don’t you?" I whispered roughly into her ear, tugging her hair just enough to make her arch even more into me.
