the cycle.”

Jake studied Cassie. Really studied. Like the way her top lip was thicker and fuller than her bottom one. The way her lashes curled so much on their own that they brushed her cheeks. How her left eye was ever so slightly darker blue than her right.

Perhaps it’s the end of the cycle.

A whisper of warning filtered through the words, as if she was talking about the two of them and not the distillery.

He couldn’t think of that. Not now when she was practically naked next to him. Not when a bird hooted in the distance and the sky was a riot of purples and oranges. Not when his body ached for her.

“I love you, Cass.” Unable to help showing her how much, he placed his mouth over hers, their lips meeting, their tongues colliding. She moved against him and he lifted her across his lap.

“I love you too, Jake.”

He smiled against her lips, knowing it had taken much for her to say that to him. The ties of her bikini were loose, and one swift tug had the purple fabric of her top dropping to reveal the highly responsive nipples he loved to play with.

Cassie groaned as he sucked one into his mouth, swirling his tongue across the tip as she moved against him. She grabbed his wrist and placed his hand on her other breast. There was no way she could know how much it turned him on. He’d much rather have an active partner, someone in tune with the need to give and take, than someone he needed to give stage directions to.

“I missed you today,” Cassie gasped.

“Yeah.” He sucked on her nipple then released it. “What did you miss?”

“You. This. Everything.” Cassie rose up on her knees and pressed against his dick, the thin fabric of her swimsuit between them. She rocked back and forth against him, and he gripped her ass firmly.

“You want foreplay and making love, or do you want to fuck?” he asked, giving in to the baser feeling he felt for her.

Her eyes went wide, but her smile was filled with all kinds of promise. “Fuck now, make love later.”

Jake stood with Cassie in his arms, water sloshing off both of them, and reached for the condom. “For the record, fucking lasts minutes, making love lasts a lot longer. You ready for me, love?”

Cassie grinned. “I might have been thinking about this very thing while I was sitting here alone. I’m ready.”

Jake put her down. “Knees, then. You can hold on to the edge of the tub.”

He ripped the condom open as he watched her shimmy out of her bikini briefs and place them on the edge of the tub. As he tugged the condom on, she clambered onto the seat, her ass just above the level of the water, and looked back at him over her shoulder.

“Fuck me, Jake.”

He gripped her ass, opening her to him, and nudged his cock inside her. He edged out a little and pushed in more firmly, almost seating himself fully.

She hadn’t been lying about being ready. She was wet for him. Soft and warm. The thought sent him wild. This time when he pulled out, he slammed back into her, hard.

“Cass,” he groaned. Water splashed around his thighs as he thrust into her, a rapid back and forth taking him to the heady edge of orgasm in record time.

He reached around for Cassie’s clit and circled it with his finger, back and forth as she bucked against him. He grabbed her around her middle, pulling her flush against him, his hands gripping her breasts, her hands over his, as he fucked her in furious strokes.

“Play with yourself,” he growled, relieved when she did as he asked. He didn’t want to let go of her, didn’t want her to fall forward away from him. She felt too fucking good exactly where she was.

“Love, I can’t wait. I need you to come soon. Come on me. Let me feel you milking my cock dry.”

“I’m so close, Jake. So . . .”

He squeezed her breasts hard, tugged on her nipples, rammed himself into her over and over until he couldn’t wait.

A wave of energy hammered down his spine, through his balls. “Cass,” he groaned as he pulsed deep inside her. He wanted more, wanted to be deeper, and pressed so hard into her as everything he felt for her flooded through him.

“Jake,” Cassie cried, her movement jerky as she fell forward, taking her weight on her arms
