Sweat sheened my skin, and my body was on fire. I could feel everything tighten inside. Just a little more and I’d go over. My damp palms slipped against the stone I held.

Jax used his other arm to brace me up, but I kept my hands where they were.

“Let go. I’ve got you. Come for me.”

As if my body was waiting for him to give permission, the small spasms in my core turned into contractions, and my body detonated.

“Ja—” Jax covered my lips and drank in my cry of release.

He held me against him and kept me from collapsing on my unsteady legs. My pussy clenched around his pistoning fingers as wave after wave of ecstasy washed over me.

He kissed me, eating at my mouth, until the spasms stopped in my core and I slumped against him.

Chapter Nine

Jax

I held Kai against me, loving the sound of her shallow gasp and the feel of the tiny spasms of her cunt around my fingers. There truly was nothing on earth that could compare to Kai orgasming. Well, maybe coming around my cock versus my fingers.

I was hard as stone and could swear my dick had a permanent imprint of my zipper on it.

If only I could take her toward the passageway leading to the sleeping cabins and lose myself in her. But this wasn’t about me. Kai’s skittishness about me was something I’d have to navigate carefully. I wanted forever and had to do everything possible to make her want it to.

I knew it wasn’t going to be as easy as seducing her. Getting into her bed was the easiest part of this whole plan. I had no doubt she still loved me, and after last night, I realized how deeply my family had interfered in my relationship with Kai. I was the idiot who thought separating her from the toxicity I’d grown up with and managed on a daily basis was the right thing to do, but I’d isolated her. And it had given fuel to my mother’s need to control everything in my life.

I’d tried to do the perfect-son thing, letting my parents groom me to take over their company. Letting them go as far as choosing the right women to date. Not one of those women made me crave them to the depths Kai could with one smile.

I’d been a goner from the moment I took my spot at the weekly poker game Pierce Lykaios held with his brothers and I saw Kailani Alexander sitting at the table. She’d come from work and wore a custom-tailored designer outfit in fire-engine red. Her hair was pulled up in a knot atop her head. When I’d taken my seat across from her and she’d looked my way with a smile, it was as if my heart stopped. There was no doubt in my mind she was my future. It had taken time to convince her, but she’d eventually given me a chance and we’d been together ever since. Well, until that day I’d come home to an empty apartment.

Kai stirred as her breath leveled out.

“Wow,” she whispered and pressed her cheek against my chest.

“I completely agree.” I slid out of her wet heat and brought my fingers to my lips, sucking in her essence.

Her taste was better than any fine wine.

Kai shook her head at me without pulling out of my hold. “You’re incorrigible.”

“What? I’d lay you out on this counter and gorge on your pussy juices if I didn’t fear for my life with your father and brother.”

“Speaking of. We have to get upstairs or someone will come looking for us.”

“We’re not going anywhere until this matter is settled.” I steadied her on her feet as she moved to stand on her own and then threaded my fingers through the soft hair at the nape of her neck. “I meant what I said. You’re mine until I leave French Polynesia.”

“It’s only three weeks.”

“Are you asking me to stay longer?”

She rolled her eyes. “You’d be bored out of your mind before you knew it. Life in Bora Bora runs on its own time.”

“I can handle a change of pace.”

She frowned. “Vegas is more your speed than here.”

“Try me.” I leaned in until our faces were a mere inch apart. “Give me a real chance and see what I’d do for you.”

“Are you saying you’d move to Bora Bora for me?”
