I groaned, rubbing my nose against the side of Kyle’s throat.
I’d missed this neck, the scent of her skin. I couldn’t live without either of them now. And I’d missed how she always had a part of her touching a part of me.
She stirred as I climbed into bed, and when she tried to roll over, I pushed my chest into her back, so she couldn’t.
“I hope that’s you, and I’m not dreaming this,” she said.
It made me smile whenever she brought up the dream. She never told me many details about it, but I wished she would.
I kissed her shoulder all the way up to her ear. She was so warm, her skin so fucking soft. I loved that she slept naked, so I could touch her without having to rip any unnecessary clothes away.
“Oh!” She ground her ass over my cock that had been hard since I walked through her front door. “Now, I know I’m definitely not dreaming.”
I smiled again.
This girl.
“Should I get up and shower, so we can go to your plane, or do you want me right where I am?”
I growled into the back of her neck. So willing. So submissive. We’d spent so much time in this bed during my last visit here.
But before I slid inside that pussy again, I had somewhere I wanted to bring her.
“I was thinking we could stay here one more night and go to Vegas in the morning.”
She rolled over as I lightened my grip. There was worry in her eyes, and her hand immediately went to my face. I kissed the side of it.
“Are you having second thoughts about me coming with you?”
“Oh, no, baby. You’re coming to Vegas with me, but there’s one thing my town doesn’t have, and that’s an ocean.”
“I don’t get it.”
“I want to take you to the beach, Kyle. Like when we were kids.” I watched her face as she realized what I was saying, and then I kissed her when she leaned forward.
“My favorite place…you know that.” She bit her bottom lip as she grinned. She knew that drove me fucking crazy. The only teeth allowed to bite that lip were mine. “But none of my suits have holes in them. It won’t be the same.”
“I bought you a new one. See? Some things never change.”
“You didn’t.”
I nodded. “It’s in your bathroom. Go put it on for me.”
Knowing I was going to push Vegas off for one more day, I’d had Mario’s assistant go buy some suits for Kyle and me. I knew it would bring back a good memory for her. The only ones I wanted her to remember were the good ones.
She gave me another kiss. This time, it lasted a little longer. “You’re too much,” she said. And then she disappeared into the bathroom.
I got out of bed and went into the kitchen, grabbing a bottle of water out of the fridge. Since I’d asked her to move in with me just last night, that hadn’t given her much time to pack. But there wasn’t a single box anywhere in here. I hadn’t even seen a suitcase in her room.
“What do you think?”
I turned toward the entrance of the hallway where she was standing in just the bikini. “I prefer you naked.” I walked over to her, hoping I could ease the scowl off her face. “That’s only because your body is too fucking gorgeous to be covered.”
“Garin…”
“You look incredible. Every guy on that beach is going to be jealous of what I have.” I wrapped my hand around her throat, smelling the toothpaste on her lips. “Are you ready to go?”
“Yes.”
“I noticed you forgot to pack. Does that mean you’re having second thoughts?”
She pulled away from my mouth and licked her lips. “I don’t want to take anything with me.”
“Nothing?”
“Just a small bag for some of my clothes, cosmetics, and jewelry. But I’m leaving the rest. I need a fresh start, and I need to leave my old life here, behind me, where it belongs.”
“Are you going to rent out the house?”
“I want to sell it.” She took the bottle of water out of my hand and drank quite a few sips. “The deed is in my name, and there’s no mortgage. I don’t have any debt to pay off, so I came up with an idea.”
“I’ll introduce you to my financial advisor. He’s great. He’ll—”
“I don’t want the money.”
I took the bottle out of her hand and pulled her into my arms. “What are you going
