I kneaded her butt cheek, and just like that, I was hard for her. My breath came in pants as I pulled on the string and her whole dress unraveled. I yanked it over her shoulders and let the sleeves tangle with her wrists. “Turn around and stay there.”
Desire swam in her eyes as she met my gaze with pursed lips. My chest rose and fell while I waited for her to decide what to do next—keep fighting or surrender to me. She braced a hand on the back of the sofa, cheeks bright red.
“We’re not done here.” Closing her eyes, she did as I asked and gave me a spectacular view of her backside.
“Yes, we are.” I buried my face in her neck while I fished a condom from the back pocket of my pants and fumbled with my belt to free my cock. Pumping my erection with one hand, I tugged down her underwear. Her sweet pussy was wet with her arousal. She was mine. “I could ask you for anything right now, and you’d say yes.”
“Wes.” Her words were strained.
Truth was, if she asked for anything, I wouldn’t deny her either. I took fistfuls of her round ass and entered her.

I rolled over onto my side expecting to see Wesley, but he was gone. After our fight last night, we ended up having sex pretty much until dawn. I could only assume that was Wesley’s way of making sure I didn’t bring up Teak again. Our conversation was far from over. As soon as I figured out how to say no to sex with Wesley, I was going to make him swear that no matter what, he’d take me to Venezuela with him.
If everything went according to plan, we would leave tomorrow morning. I kicked the covers off and winced at the soreness between my legs. Next time if Wesley suggested I’d take it slow, I should probably listen. I let my hand slide down and rubbed myself the way he’d done it. It felt good, but it wasn’t the same with his mouth and hands all over me.
A soft knock on the door brought me back to reality. “Hello?” Valentina poked her head in. “Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t realize you’d still be in bed.” She halted in the middle of the suite.
“Yeah. Late night.” I brought the sheet up to my chest and sat up.
She furrowed her brows, then pointed to the bathroom where water running could be heard behind the closed door. “Wait.”
I glanced up at her, biting my lip, and waited for her to piece it all together. She covered her mouth and laughed. “Omigod, Anabelle. Who? No way.” Her brain was all over the place, then she finally mouthed, “Wesley?”
I nodded with tears burning my eyes. She ambled toward me and pulled me into an embrace so tight I almost lost hold of my cover.
“I know. I still can’t believe it either.”
“You’re glowing.” She pressed both hands to her cheeks, then turned a little red. “Oh gosh, I’m so sorry. I can’t believe I barged in on you like this.” She pointed at the makeshift dress I’d wrapped around myself.
“Don’t worry about it. It’s okay. Now we’re even from when I walked in on you and Derek.”
She giggled. “I forgot about that.”
Only a few weeks ago, I’d been running down the hallway to avoid Wesley. Unknowingly, I’d stormed into a room where Valentina and Derek were in the middle of a heated make-out session. I’d been a little jealous that day because I never thought I’d find someone to love me as much as Derek loved Valentina. I was wrong.
“I’ll wait for you downstairs.”
“Okay. I’ll be there in a minute.”
As soon as Valentina left, Wesley opened the door to the bathroom. “Was that Valentina?”
“Yeah. Do you mind if I go downstairs and talk to her?”
“You’re asking for my permission?” He stalked over to me and wrapped his hands around my waist. “I like that.”
“No. I just don’t want to be rude and leave you here all alone.”
He kissed my forehead. “Go. I have a few calls to make. We leave in the morning.”
“I know.” I placed my hand on his chest. “Promise me you won’t leave me behind.”
“I won’t. I promise. I was an idiot for giving Teak’s suggestion a second thought.”
