‘Now we have a reason to take our clothes off.’ Zach’s smile was sheepish on his way-too handsome face. His beard scratched my skin as he planted kisses along my jaw, and I knew he wanted to get under my clothes to my naked skin. He grabbed my legs, pulled them up and wrapped them around his waist. I could feel him, his hardness pushed up against my sex as he carried me out of the water.

This time Zach didn’t dump me down onto the sand; this time he was gentle as he placed me on the blanket. A chill ran through me, maybe it was the water, maybe it was the man that hovered above me.

His hands roamed my slightly less-milky coloured flesh after he’d torn off my tee-shirt, and his touch left goosebumps on my skin from my neck to the waistband of my pants. I loved how this felt a little too much. My pants were next. He slowly peeled them down my legs and wrung out the water. All that was left was my underwear.

Zach stood in front of me and peeled out of his own clothes, quicker than I thought humanly possible. He stood butt naked on the edge of the blanket, and I had to admit I liked the view. Zach kneeled down and leaned in, reaching around me and unclasping my bra then it was gone, added to the pile of wet clothes. He stared, enjoying the view of my naked body. I will still curvy, but I now had a little more muscle. I couldn’t help but smile. I liked that Zach liked looking at me.

The moment his hands landed on my hips, I felt the electricity run through my veins. It made me move my hands over my breasts, not to cover them and hide them away, but to massage them, to show Zach I liked to play. It felt good to touch myself, and I know that he liked it too. When I looked up into his eyes, I saw his hunger for me, and before I knew it my panties were gone.

Zach moved closer to me, lowering his lips to mine as his body covered me in the most delicious way. I would always want this man and only this man.

‘Tell me again the words you told me earlier?’

I wondered what words from earlier Zach questioned me now about. Of course, I would be stupid if I didn’t know. But I wanted to take this moment to toy with him.

‘What words were they, Zach?’ I pretended to think about the words Zach wanted.

‘Don’t be coy with me, Harley.’ Zach reached for my ribs to give them a squeeze.

‘It wasn’t how I wanted to tell you for the first time,’ I admitted to Zach, but I wasn’t at all sorry that I had said them.

‘Would now be a better time to say them?’ Zach wasted no time and pressed his sex into mine. I gasped out loud at how good this man felt against me.

‘Now would be a better time,’ I whispered in agreeance.

‘I love you,’ Zach whispered into my ear as he lined himself up between my legs and pushed his way inside me.

I moaned, unable to say anything as I wrapped my arms around Zach’s neck. I just wanted to enjoy this. Enjoy this moment. Enjoy and not worry that Zach was bare inside me. He pulled out and slammed back in. He did it again, and my body started to tingle. Another moan left my lips, the same way it left his. The tingle built each time Zach repeated his movements, in and out. More moans left our lips until we were close enough to fall off the edge and into our own bliss.

‘Say it again,’ I whispered as I wrapped my legs around Zach’s hips. I wanted to hold him close while he said those words again.

‘I love you, baby.’ Zach stilled and leaned in to whisper his words into my ear.

‘I love you. I love you,’ I whispered back to Zach. ‘Please make me come.’

They were the only words that Zach needed to hear to start his movements again to make me come. His hips pumped into mine and I knew by the way I felt inside that I was close to my climax. My muscles tightened around him. My legs squeezed around his hips. My body shook underneath him, and I always wanted our sex to feel this way: incredible.

‘Come for me,’ Zach said softly against my skin, and in that moment, I knew we could both feel my release. ‘Again,’ Zach murmured near my ear. ‘Come for me again.’

Zach’s forearms surrounded my head and stopped any movement I wanted to make. He took my hands from around his neck and pushed them over my head, where they landed in the sand. I felt the stretch in my body as my back arched off the blanket and into Zach’s torso.

Zach’s body skimmed against mine, and his hips moved out then in. He pulsed inside me. My sex muscles that were still clenched against his length started to spasm again. Orgasm number two rocked me just as much as the first, and that was when I felt Zach come inside me and fill me up.

He wasn’t prepared for my bite to his bottom lip that started out gentle and ended up clamping down hard when he became more aware. And he reacted. Boy did he react, with a pinch to my nipple, the sting of which my body enjoyed way too much. It sent a current of fire through me that reached my fingers at one end and my toes at the other. My pussy felt it too, my muscles crushing Zach one last time.

He took control, manoeuvring his lips over mine and pushing my head back down on to the blanket. He devoured my mouth, slowly at first then harder the longer the kiss went on, and I thought I had gone to heaven. There was no way I ever wanted to push this man out of my life again. This moment was pure ecstasy.

‘Damn, woman.’ Zach pecked my lips then let me go and withdrew from my body. ‘You make me feel so good.’ His words made me feel gooey inside.

‘So good.’ I pressed my lips into Zach’s skin. He still hovered over me so I kissed his chest.

After a moment’s silence, I looked into his eyes. ‘I want to know about your tattoo, Zach.’ I said as I reached for Zach to wrap my arms around him.

‘And I want to know about your last four weeks, Harley,’ Zach responded as he too put his arms around me.

‘You first.’ I pointed at his chest then danced my fingers over his tattoo.

‘Okay, my tattoo. The armour is to guard my heart.’
