His gaze snapped to her, shocked thatshe, of all people, would be the one to suggest breaking the rules. “That’s not something you’re allowed to bet, remember?”

“Avril’s out of the game,” Victoria said. “It’s just you, me, and Tess. We can make a rule change or two.”

“Are you going to get Tess’s vote for this change?”

“If you agree, there’ll be a majority.”

Liam kept his eyes locked with Victoria’s. “I didn’t realize you were so devious.”

“Says the young man who put handprints on my colleague’s butt. Two professors, Liam? One wasn’t enough?”

He couldn’t really defend himself from that accusation, not after Victoria had seen the marks on Tess’s butt. So, instead, he went on the attack.

“Not when one of those professors is you.”

Victoria liked his reply. He saw it in the subtle shift in her posture, the slightly slower blink that followed his proclamation. Hewasgetting better at detecting her subtle responses. He was also beginning to think that, rather than hurting his chances, it might be better that she knew about him and Tess. If he’d provenworthy of the affection of a woman she respected, maybe she was interested in the how.

“Do we have a deal?” Victoria asked.

“Only if you take off your top right now, acting like you wouldn’t accept whatever I offered. And if I win against you again before you have a chance to knock me out, we’re going to make out in front of everyone.”

“Deal,” the thawing queen of ice whispered. Almost immediately, in fact.

Hefinallygot to see Victoria’s breasts. Not just most of them. Not with a hint of her nipple visible between two intentionally separated fingers. All of them. It was enough to make him tremble deliriously.

She didn’t play around, either. Standing up, she began to remove her sports bra while still next to him. Her breasts, heavenly large, so fuckable, so suckable, so in need of his hands all over them tomorrow morning, spilled out. Not even Anna’s could compare in size. They were utterly magnificent. Every centimeter—and there werea lotof centimeters—needed to be explored. From their edges to her pert nipples, which he hoped would be sensitive enough for them both to enjoy when his mouth eventually covered one, his fingers playing with the other in perfect tandem.

Victoria returned to her area, but not before leaving her bra behind. Liam jolted as she dropped it into his lap, then gaped at it as she headed back to her area. Weirdly, it almost felt too taboo for him to touch it, even though he’d made out with her colleague just a few minutes ago. However, he would overcome that feeling and place it directly beside him.

“The Four Horsewomen of Buxomness,” Avril commented from the peanut gallery. “Big, Bouncy, Beautiful, and… Busty.”

“Those are slightly redundant,” Tess noted.

The redhead shrugged. “We’ll workshop it later.”

Upon finishing shuffling, Liam dealt another honest hand. Perhaps he should have cheated here, too, to help Victoria win, but that felt like going too far. If Tess naturally lost in a round, then, once it was just the two of them left, he’d throw the game for Victoria. But only then.

However, someone else had a chance to knock him out first. Rocking up with a pair of fours, somehow Tess won the next round, even with him and Victoria both swapping to their mystery hands. Her high card of nine trumped his seven, which brought him under Tess’s mercy.

“Are my breasts still worth a little attention?” the gorgeous woman asked teasingly as he shifted into whispering range.

“I love them as much as I love you,” he instantly replied.

“Enough that you’d suck on them in front of the other apparent members of my apocalyptic group?”

“Without any hesitation at all.”

Tess smiled warmly, approving of his vigor. However, he learned she'd been formulating her own plan since it’d become just the three of them. One that aligned quite nicely with Victoria’s. Great minds thought alike, apparently.

“Now, if I were to exit the game and let you keep playing with Victoria in the finals the next time I lose a round, what would that earn me for the other days of our trip?”

Am I the only one still playing an honest game?Liam wondered.

“What exactly could I offer that you already couldn’t get from me with just a curl of your finger?” he said.

Tess’s smile grew. “The resort offers a private beach experience for couples. We’ll be isolated, we can dress up, enjoy some fine dining…”

“And then I can fuck you in the ass?” Liam asked humorously.
