Page 68 of Broken Deal

“Oh, God,” I groan. “I can’t anymore, Lorenzo. Please. I’m wiped.”

With a soft laugh, he scoops me up, and I cling to him, burying my face in the crook of his neck. “Let’s get you cleaned up and we’ll go to bed, no funny business, I promise.”

He carries me to the bathroom, setting me gently on the sink countertop, then starts to run a bubble bath. The soothing scent of lavender fills the air as he adds soap to the water. He tests the temperature, making sure it’s just right, and once the tub is ready, he looks back at me with a smile that makes my chest tighten, holding out his hand.

I take it, letting him help me down from the counter. He slides into the bath first, and I follow, easing into the warmth of the water with his steady hands guiding me. I settle back against his chest, the water and his body cocooning me in warmth. His arms wrap around me, pulling me closer, and I tilt my head back, resting it on his shoulder as I close my eyes and let myself melt into the comfort of his embrace.

He kisses the side of my head and mumbles, “You okay?”

I let out a content sigh. “Yes. This is perfect.” I open my eyes and look up at him. “Thank you.”

His lips find mine, giving me a soft peck. “No need to thank me.”

My cheeks heat with a blush. “Why are you always so thoughtful?”

A small smirk plays on his lips. “Only with you, Blue. Just you.”

I don’t understand how I got this lucky and entered the deal of the lifetime with someone as thoughtful as him, but I’ll soak up every second of it, and more.

Light, peppering kisses from my cheek to my neck and the heat of a body pressed against me start to slowly wake me up. If this is what heaven feels like, I’d rather stay asleep forever.

“Wake up, sleepy head,” Lorenzo whispers against my neck, his warm breath creating goosebumps all over my body.

“Can’t. You fucked me to death last night,” I groan, turning around and wrapping my leg on top of his and hiding my face in the crook of his neck.

His laugh is low and gravelly. “You had no complaints last night.”

No, I didn’t. I am thoroughly fucked and satisfied now, and all I want to do is stay in bed all day.

Sex with Lorenzo was…electric. Wild.Fun. In such a short period, I’ve grown so comfortable around him, it makes the chemistry between us a thousand times better. Can’t say I’m regretting this deal, because if this is how it’s going to be, I’m more than ready to have the summer of my life.

“Leave me here to die.” I sigh.

“I have to go walk the staff through the restaurant today and talk to them. Are you coming?”

I scratch my eyes with my knuckles, yawning and getting out of the comfiest bed against my will. “Yeah. It’s why I’m here, after all.”

He follows after me, swatting my ass playfully before he wraps his arms around my waist and drops a kiss on the side of my head. “You go get ready, and I’ll make us some breakfast. Yeah?”

I look at him with a soft smile and nod.

I walk back to my room and grab my phone from the nightstand, checking for any new text messages.
