“Then let’s have sex. Give into me just once, Winter. One night.”

She shakes her head. “I can’t tonight.”

“I didn’t mean tonight.”

She exhales. “I don’t particularly want to plan it, Declan. I don’t want to feel like it’s on schedule. It takes the passion out of it.”

I laugh. “Beautiful, with you, it’ll be passionate no matter how or when we do it. I can wait, but don’t keep me waiting too long.”

“I’ll try. For now, I need to get back to my friends.”

“One more kiss.” I throw her my best pouty face.

She obliges me, and I lower her to the floor.

Sex shouldn’t be at the forefront of my mind right now, but I can’t think about anything else with Winter around. While my body screams at me to mate, my head tells me to bed her once, and she’ll be out of my mind for good.

One night of passion should do it. I’ll make her come over and over again until she can’t move. She’ll be so completely satisfied and ruined for any other man. I’m pretty sure she wants things the same way.

“One more thing?” I say.

She looks at me and sighs. “I can’t spend all night kissing you.”

I laugh. “While I want to keep kissing you, we both know where it will lead. In hopes of setting something up with us, I want your number, Winter.” She looks at me and shakes her head. “If you don’t give it to me now, I’ll ask Liliana for it.”

“She’d give it to you too, the bitch!”

“Why? Because she wants to see us together?” I ask, handing her my phone.

“She does,” she replies as she types a few buttons and hands it back.

“This is legit, right? No funny business.”

“Test it out.”

I will. Later.

“Now, about that wine, what did you want to drink?” I ask.

“Surprise me. CE Estates is my favourite,” she replies as I open my office door and slide my hand into hers. I’ve never been a guy for public displays of affection, especially with a woman I’ve only just met, but with this woman, I want the world to know she belongs to me, so no other man gets any ideas.

We make our way back out to the main vineyard. Winter walks over to her friends, but not before throwing me a sexy look over her shoulder and blowing me a kiss. I grin like an idiot at her.

Damn, I wish she would just give in to me.I vow that when we finally get together, I’ll give her a night of passion she’ll never forget.

WINTER

“I want to forget last night even happened. Not the part about Declan and I kissing, just the bits afterwards. I’m pretty sure Pietra not only did a sex toy party, but she also hired a stripper who gave me a lap dance,” I groan to Liliana, who is sitting on my couch drinking a coffee with me.

I feel miserable. My stomach is a mess, and I know I became friends with the porcelain bowl in the bathroom of my hotel room at some unGodly hour this morning.

“You kissed Declan? When? Where? Was it good?” Liliana asks.

I roll my eyes. “Of course, that’s the bit you focus on. We’ve kissed twice now. The first was outside his place, and the second was at the winery in his office. Best fucking kisses of my life. I almost begged him to strip me naked and fuck me right on his desk, but I held back.”

“I knew I was right when I told you there was something between you two. You two could get married someday. Oh! I could help with the planning!”
