‘It was.’
‘I wished they’d come a bit later so we’d had time to dry off. Wearing clothes when you’re dripping wet is super uncomfortable. Especially after experiencing the pleasure of swimming in the buff!’
‘If they arrived a few minutes later and I was doing my job, you would still be very wet…’ My mouth lifted into a cheeky smile.
‘See! Told you that you were a dirty dog! You’re not wrong though. You have a habit of doing that…’
‘That is good to hear.’
As we slid our damp bodies onto the car seat, a wave of disappointment hit me. I was not ready for the evening to end, but I had an early start in the morning. I wished that we could spend the night together. It did not have to involve sex. I would be happy to just hold Sammie.
‘I wish we could spend the night together,’ Sammie said and my eyes widened.
‘I was just thinking the same.’
‘I spotted a baseball cap in your boot. Could you not just wear that and sneak into the villa? I mean will they even check if I have guests? I would’ve thought the cameras are just for surveillance – to make sure that no unauthorised people are on the resort. But say if I was to leave via the back of the villa and return with someone, would they really question it? Especially given that I don’t have a match.’
‘Hmmm.’ I rested my finger on my chin. ‘Maybe. That could work.’
‘It’s worth a try. Then we’d get to spend the whole night together.’
It was risky, but I knew where the cameras were, so I could keep my head low when I passed them.
‘Okay,’ I smiled, excitement rushing through my veins.
‘Great! Let’s do it!’

SAMMIE
‘We did it!’ I squealed as Romeo slid through the door, removed his cap, then leant forward and kissed me, causing goosebumps to erupt over my skin.
‘Si. It was good that we came in together so that security would not think I was a stranger coming to your villa to attack you.’
‘Yep.’
Once we’d both showered, Romeo went to get some water, whilst I climbed into bed.
I let out a loud yawn. All the swimming tonight and over the past few days, combined with the heat and the marathon sex sessions, had caught up with me.
When Romeo stepped into the bedroom with his towel still wrapped around his waist, I swallowed hard. I didn’t think I’d ever get tired of looking at his body.
After dropping the towel, he climbed into the bed beside me.
‘Come here.’ He patted his chest.
I shuffled over and rested my head on him, inhaling his scent.
‘This is heaven,’ I sighed with happiness, as he wrapped his arms around me. Another yawn shot from my mouth. ‘I wanted to have some sexy time, but…’
‘I am tired too.’ He stroked my hair. ‘And when I said I wanted to spend the night together, I did not mean I wanted sex. I just wanted to be with you.’
‘Awww.’ My heart melted. This man was adorable. ‘Thanks for understanding.’
‘You do not need to thank me,’ he chuckled and I loved feeling the vibration from his chest. He was right, but I was so used to men only being interested in one thing, that somehow I felt I needed to apologise for not giving up the goods.
But then I remembered that this was Romeo. And like he’d repeatedly shown me, he wasn’t like other men.
