heat distributed itself from the hanging candles.
Adding the immaculate sunset that washed over the vast snow-covered mountains, this view was a dream come true. I was tempted to take a picture because it was just beyond words.
Jax stood next to the hot tub in just his swimming trunks. His hair was left down, just how he liked it, but I was caught up in the slight change in his overall demeanor.
Had we all gone through a metamorphosis of some sort, or was my body just yearning for some sort of change and was playing games? I couldn't be sure, but the way Jax stood there with those dancing orbs of golden fire made me want to wrap him up in my arms and make love to him.
How do you describe your beyond sexy boyfriend who looks like he'd take you on a date without your parent's permission and bring you home whenever he felt like?
Whatever term that best described that lump of confidence was what Jax was displaying. He looked like the ultimate bad boy that was going to seduce me out of this bikini with just a smile.
Goodness...I wouldn't mind that at all.
"This is me trying to be creative so my girlfriend and I can enjoy the miraculous sunset while soaking in warm water with some finger foods and beer," Jax offered and gave me that perfect seductive grin that already had my stomach doing cartwheels and my core tightening up in pure need.
May the gods help me resist the goodness of this man or we won't even last five minutes in the tub before I'm naked and writhing beneath him. Oh goodness, I can't believe I just thought that!
Delicious.
I was so tempted to question what Marianna even meant by that, but I decided to distract myself by walking to where Jax was waiting for me.
"This is amazing, Jax," I practically purred as I reached where he stood. He immediately lifted his arms in an open gesture, and the two of us hugged tightly before he kissed my temple.
"Up for some relaxation?"
"Definitely," I whispered. "I miss you."
"I've been by your side the majority of the time," he teased but kissed me before I could say more. I moaned into his mouth as I pressed myself against him. My worries, anxieties, and hidden fears were beginning to fade away.
Jax always had that effect on me. His flaming heat did its duty to hug me in its burning protection and push away the threat of my own insecurities. I loved how our relationship was so natural now.
Not much thinking or second-guessing, it was just going with the flow and giving my body exactly what it wanted.
"Hungry?" he inquired as he wrapped those large hands of his around me and tugged me over to the finger foods table.
"I have to admit, I'm really hungry," I confessed. "Guess I should try eating more."
"You have lost a bit of weight,” Jax admitted as he picked up a slice of marble cheese and offered it to me. I was going to take it from his grasp, but he moved it to my very lips with that intense look of admiration in his hooded eyes.
I decided to continue going with the flow, my mouth inching closer to take a large bite of the cheese and enjoy the rich dairy flavor goodness.
He watched every move of my mouth as I chewed, and oddly enough, I relished his attention. I ate slowly as if to entice him further and when I swallowed, it was as though the food was taking its damn time going down my throat.
He observed it all before his arm glided along my waist and brought me closer to him, our lips barely brushing. "Want another?"
"Ya," I replied with a breathy voice. He reached for another, only this time he put half in his mouth and leaned in until I met him halfway. The two of us kissed first before we took our bitten shares of cheese.
When we finished, we kissed again, and after a few more rotations of eating-then-kissing moments, we grabbed some beers to start drinking.
Something caught my attention as the scent of pasta and freshly made bread wafted over to me. It was only questionable because we didn't have any neighbors on the vast private property.
"Someone's cooking," I mumbled. I currently sat on Jax's lap on the bench that easily had enough space for me to sit next to my lover.
"Hmm." Jax took a moment to sniff the air. "Pasta...and bread?"
"Ya." I
