Kai turns off the stove, scoops me into his arms, and carries me to our room, where sunlight filters through the open French doors. He lays me on the bed, hands roaming my body, and warmth spreads through my belly.

After all this time, our passion is still blazing. Being with Kai is like standing too close to an open flame - intoxicating, irresistible, and dangerously addictive.

I tug at his boxers, wanting nothing between us, and Kai kicks them away. He leans into me, eyes dark with desire, and whispers the three words sure to ignite my soul.

“I love you.”

Then he kisses me again, and we get lost in paradise.

When we finally emerge from the bedroom, the pancakes are ruined, but neither of us cares. We lounge on the balcony, basking in our afterglow.

“What do you want to do today, sweetheart?” Kai asks, trailing a finger down my arm.

I smile up at the clear blue sky. Not a care in the world. “Not much. Just enjoy the day.”

“Perfect.” Kai kisses my forehead and pulls me into his arms.

I snuggle against his chest, listening to the steady beat of his heart.

Later, the white sand is soft under my feet as we walk on the beach, hand in hand, turquoise waves lapping at the shore.

The warm sun kisses my skin as Kai and I splash in the surf, laughing and playing like kids. We chase each other through the shallow waves, Kai catching me around the waist and pulling me in for a deep, passionate kiss.

“Mmm,” I murmur against his lips. “You taste like the ocean.”

“So do you,” he whispers, desire darkening his eyes. “Delicious.”

Heat gathers low in my belly at the hunger in his gaze. “We should get back to the house.”

Kai brushes his mouth over my neck, sending a shiver down my spine. “I’m not done kissing you yet.”

I laugh, tilting my head to give him better access.

We trade lazy kisses in the surf, the sun glittering on the surrounding water, seagulls calling overhead. The rest of the world fades away. There’s only Kai, his hands roaming over my body, his tongue teasing mine.

Kai scoops me into his arms, carrying me out of the water.

He lays me down on the soft sand, and I gaze up at him, this stunning man who steals my breath away.

Our picnic basket lies forgotten as Kai claims my lips in a searing kiss.

He lifts me in his arms again, carrying me back to our secluded beachfront estate. By the time we stumble through the front door, desire burns hot in my veins.

I fist my hands in his hair, pulling him in for a deep, hungry kiss.

Inside, Kai sets me down on the massage table set in a dedicated room of the house. His hands glide over my body, coating me in warm, scented oil, kneading my muscles until I’m putty in his hands.

“So fucking hot,” he rumbles, leaning to press an open-mouth kiss to my neck. “So perfect.”

His praise makes me shiver, fire burning in my belly. By the time his hands reach my inner thighs, I’m panting, squirming against the table.

“Please,” I gasp. “I need you, baby.”

Kai chuckles, a low rumble against my skin. “Patience, love.” His thumbs trace slow, maddening circles, inching closer and closer to where I ache for his touch. “We have all night.”

I whimper, torn between pleasure and frustration. Kai takes his time exploring my body, his hands and mouth unlocking desires I never knew I possessed.

When at last he sinks into me, I cry out, back arching. Our rhythm is slow and deep, each thrust pushing me higher. I cling to Kai as my orgasm crashes over me in strong waves, his name on my lips.
