His Summer Curves Page 2


  I made reservations at a nice seafood restaurant and my plan is to take her for a walk on the beach after dinner. I want to take things slow and get to know her better. She must be something special if I’m so obsessed with her.

  I go downstairs, and the receptionist helps me find her office. Her door is open, so I stand in the doorway and watch her work. She’s typing at her laptop, and she looks every inch the businesswoman she is. It’s sexy as hell, and I wouldn’t mind bending her over that desk and making her mine.

  She’s so cute perched on her chair, typing away at her laptop, biting her lower lip in concentration.

  I knock on her door, and she smiles when she sees me. “Hey,” she says shyly. “I need one more minute to finish this. Would you mind waiting?” she asks and gives me an apologetic smile.

  “Not at all. Does this mean I’m allowed to enter your office?”

  “Of course,” she says and gestures toward the couch. You can find out a lot about someone by looking at their office, and I like what I see. She has a lot of pictures, so that means she’s close to her family, and a lot of books, so she must read a lot.

  “Ready to go?” she asks, pulling me from my daydreaming.

  Now that she’s standing, I can see that she’s wearing a deep green dress that accentuates her gorgeous curves.

  “You’re so beautiful Kali,” I tell her, and she smiles her shy smile.

  “You’re not so bad,” she says, and I chuckle.

  Her dress has a low-cut back, and I feel myself getting hot when I lightly touch it while guiding her toward the restaurant.

  She must have had the same reaction because she turns to me, her eyes wide and her pupils dilated. It’s going to be a long night.

  I send a quick prayer to all the gods to give me strength because I want to take her home and make love to her all night. That’s not possible, of course.

  We quickly order drinks and food and make small talk while waiting for our meal to arrive. She tells me that she used to live in Seattle but moved back to Emerald Isle when she inherited the hotel from her aunt.

  “Are you close to your family?” I ask her, remembering all those family photos in her office.

  “Yes, I love them so much. And I’m glad Lexi moved back from New York! What about you?”

  I shrug. “Yes, I love my family. My sister is a doctor and ordered me to take a month-long vacation or she’s going to tell Mom and Dad.” I laugh. “She’s my baby sister and I love her, but she’s so bossy, always trying to order me around.”

  “Does it work?” she asks, flashing me a smile.

  “Yes, she has had me wrapped around her finger ever since Mom and Dad brought her home from the hospital. She was such a cute baby.”

  “Do you want to have kids?” she asks me, and I sense this is an important question. I look into her eyes, and she stops breathing. Our mutual attraction is so powerful that all it takes is a look to light the fire between us.

  I clear my throat and look away. “I want to have kids someday, but I want to get married and show my bride the world before having kids. Traveling with kids is complicated no matter how much money you have.”

  The waiter brings us our food, and she gives Kali a knowing look. I guess they know each other.

  We eat and talk for a few more hours. I don’t want our date to end, so I ask her if she wants to take that walk on the beach.

  We leave our shoes in my car, and I take her hand while we walk on the sandy shore.

  “Can I ask you something?” she says, and I can sense she’s a little embarrassed, but it only piques my interest.

  “Kali, you can ask me anything,” I reply, and I see her face lights up in the moonlight.

  “Why don’t you eat your breakfast?” she asks, and I start laughing. “I mean, I saw you eat tonight, and you have a hearty appetite. My staff is puzzled because you never touch the food they bring you every morning.”

  I’m shaking with laughter, and she glares at me. “It’s not funny,” she protests.

  “If I tell you, then you have to tell me if you go skinny dipping every night.”

  I can see her narrowing her eyes in the light coming from the streetlamp. “How do you know about that?” she asks, laughing.

  “My lips are sealed,” I joke. “Do we have a deal?”

  “You’re a blackmailer,” she scoffs.

  I shrug. “A man has his secrets. I can’t divulge them without getting something in return,” I protest.

  “Fine, but you go first,” she says, and her eyes drift to the sea. “And you have to tell me how you stay so in shape. I want to lose a few pounds.”

  I groan. “Baby, I love your curves,” I tell her, and she stops breathing when she realizes I’ve called her that. “I practice intermittent fasting and go to the gym a few times a week. It works for me,” I quickly add. “Basically, I skip breakfast. That’s all, baby.”

  She nods and our eyes meet. I can clearly see the desire there, and when she licks her lips, I slip my hand around her waist and pull her into my arms.

  Her lips taste incredibly sweet from the lava cake we ate at dinner, and her womanly scent intoxicates me. A little moan escapes her lips, and I groan in response, interrupting the kiss.

  I reach out and grab her chin with my fingers, claiming her lips again. One kiss is not enough, and I realize I’ll never get enough of this woman.

  Wide-eyed, she stares at me and pulls me close and threads her fingers through my hair. Heat is radiating from her skin, and I grab her buttocks, pressing her body against my length.

  “Ford,” she moans against my lips, and what little self-control I had slips away. My hungry lips find hers again, and I touch her breast while nibbling on her bottom lip.

  My hands travel up her body, touching her everywhere, and I’m rewarded with her soft moans of arousal.

  We kneel on the beach, never parting our lips, and she lies down on the sand. I climb on top of her, my hand traveling to her pussy. I find her wet and ready and touch her clit until she cries out in ecstasy.

  She sits up, tossing her curls. “I never had so much sand in my private parts,” she jokes. “You didn’t...” she says but stops. “You gave me an orgasm, so it’s only fair I return the favor,” she says.

  “That’s not necessary, baby,” I tell her. “I want our first time to be on those Egyptian sheets you ordered. Besides, we’re not ready yet.”

  She takes a deep breath and nods. “Thank you for being so understanding. You’re right. I think we should wait; we got a little carried away. To answer your earlier question, yes, I try to swim every night.”

  I nod and help her to her feet, guiding her back toward my car to take her home. She lives in a little cottage near the hotel, and I give her another good night kiss before I go back to my suite to jerk off to the memory of her sweet moans of pleasure.

  Chapter 5

  Kali

  The next morning, I’m a little disappointed when I get a big bouquet of flowers from Ford but he doesn’t call me or stop by my office.

  Lexi stops by at lunch. “So, how was it?” she asks. “That man is so fine! I can see why you like him so much.”

  I frown. “How do you know I like him?”

  She shakes her head and grabs a piece a chicken from her plate. “Sweetie, it’s written all over your face. Besides, you’ve checked your phone twenty times since I arrived.”

  I shrug. “Last night was amazing.” I blush and look away.

  Lexi frowns. “So, what’s the problem if he’s amazing?”

  I play with my food, trying to gather my thoughts. “I don’t know him very well, but he didn’t call me this morning. He sent me that huge bouquet,” I say, gesturing toward the flowers sitting on my desk. “He was a gentleman last night and he gave me a great orgasm.” I shrug. “I don’t know. He’s rich and powerful, and I’m afraid he’s just playing with me. That I’m just a vacation fling.”

  She nods. “I understand your concern, but I stil
l think you should give him a chance. People are not always what they seem. But I’m glad to hear he’s good in bed,” she teases me.

  I shake my head. “We didn’t hook up. We just fooled around a little on the beach. We both agreed we want to wait. I like him so much, Lexi. I was blinded by his body when we met, but he’s really funny and easy to talk to.”

  Lexi takes a sip of water and looks at me funny. “Kali you sound like you have a crush on him.”

  “Yeah, I know. I think I do. Everything is complicated because he’s also a guest, and I don’t want people to think I’m sleeping with my clients.”

  I am working in my office when I hear a knock on my door. I look up to find Ford standing in my doorway.

  “Hi, Kali, can I come in?” he asks.

  “Sure,” I say, my voice a little cold.

  He frowns and plops down on my couch. “What’s wrong, baby?” he asks and stares at me in bewilderment.

  “Nothing,” I say and try to calm down. I’m freaking out a little and don’t want to act crazy in front of him. “Thank you for the flowers,” I say, trying to be polite.

  “I’m glad you liked the flowers, but I get the impression I did something wrong. So just tell me what I did,” he says, giving me a confused look.

  I take a deep breath. “You didn’t call and I freaked out a little, that’s all.”

  He laughs and I glare at him. “I’m such a dumbass, baby. I wanted to hear your voice first thing in the morning, but I wanted to give you space. I promise I’ll give you a call every morning from now on.”

  “You mean you want us to keep seeing each other?” I ask, my voice doubtful. “You’re only here for a few weeks. How are things going to work out when you go back to New York? Or is this only a vacation thing for you?”

  He looks at me like I have two heads. “I don’t have all the answers yet, Kali. All I know is that I want to keep seeing you, okay?”

  I nod. “Okay. I would like that.”

  “Can I give you a kiss now? That’s why I came, to ask you out again. What do you say we take a picnic basket and spend the afternoon at the beach? I’ll ask the concierge to pack me a hearty breakfast since I never get the chance to eat it.”

  I laugh. “Sounds good, Ford.” A lusty feeling of warmth steals over me when he leans over and gives me brief kiss. Too brief. My pulse quickens, and a delicious shudder shoots through me when he gives me another kiss. This one is more intimate, sensual. His tongue probes my lips and pleasure pulses in my veins.

  He ends the kiss and leaves my office, leaving me breathless and aroused.

  We spend all our free time together during the next two weeks, and I’m sure I’m in love with him. He is everything I never knew I wanted in a man and so much more.

  We take a walk on the beach every night, and it’s increasingly hard to say goodbye to him at night. I know he wants me, and I’m ready to have sex with him, so I’m going to ask him to come to my house for dinner tomorrow night.

  I spend my day working and thinking about him. I ordered a sexy baby doll from an online lingerie store, but I don’t know if I’m going to have the guts to wear it in front of him.

  I avoid him the next day because I’m so nervous about that night. We usually see each other a few times a day since we’re both working in the same building. I know he has to go back to New York soon, and I dread the moment that will happen.

  Chapter 6

  Ford

  Dating the woman of your dreams for a few weeks but not making love to her is pure torture. I have never jerked off so much in my entire life. Every goodnight kiss is pure torture, and I want so much to claim her as mine, to sink my cock into her sweet pussy over and over again until we are both satisfied.

  She asked me to dinner at her house again, and I don’t know how I’m going to survive this night.

  I grab a bottle of wine from the store and a pack of condoms, just in case I get lucky enough to end my dry spell.

  I know Kali is the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with because I would rather spend my time with her than have sex with somebody else.

  I knock on her door, and I’m surprised when she answers in a sexy negligee. I get impossibly hard looking at her sexy curves. I hope she doesn’t try to feed me food, because I don’t think I can eat.

  “Hey, babe!” I lean and give her a quick peck on her lips, and she grabs the bottle of wine and takes it to the kitchen. I sense that tonight I’m finally going to taste that sweet pussy of hers.

  “Here is your drink,” she says, and her cheeks are flushed when she hands me the glass of wine.

  I think I’m going to explode if I don’t put my hands on her, so I grab her hand and pull her into my arms for a kiss. Color spreads across her cheeks when we pull apart, and her expression turns needful.

  “Where is your bedroom, Kali?” I ask her. It’s clear to me that this is what she wants, and by God, I’m going to give it to her. I’ve waited too long to make her mine, and I’m desperate to do so.

  My cock floods with heat when she kisses my neck as I take her into my arms and carry her toward the bedroom. She unbuttons my shirt, and her soft, sexy lips are teasing my skin with light kisses. I feel her round breasts against my chest through the thin fabric of her negligee. I put her down on the bed in her bedroom and help her out of her silky clothes. I pinch her nipples, and she moans, making my cock twitch. I lean in to claim one nipple, making the little nub into a hard bud.

  I want her badly, so I take my clothes off and place the condoms on the nightstand. I climb on top of her and gasp when I see her playing with her clit. It drives me wild with need, and I plunge my tongue into her mouth. I grab a condom from the nightstand and rip the wrapper with trembling hands. She’s making me wild with need, and I whisper sweet things in her ear about her tight pussy before thrusting my cock inside her scalding hotness in one swift move.

  She climaxes the moment I start moving inside of her. “Oh, God, Ford it feels so good,” she says, her cheeks flushed, her breathing erratic.

  “That’s right baby, give it to me. You’re so fucking beautiful Kali, and you’re all mine. Do you hear it, baby? Say it,” I demand of her.

  “Yes, I’m all yours,” she says, and I’m ridiculously happy to hear those words escape her lips.

  She arches her hips, meeting me thrust for thrust, and I count at least two more orgasms until I clasp her hips, pulling her hard into my final thrust, and I come with a low growl. I don’t think I have ever had an orgasm as powerful as the one I’m having right now.

  She relaxes into a state of warm bliss and closes her eyes like a satisfied cat. “That was incredible, baby,” I say and kiss her temples.

  She peers at me from under her lashes. “I don’t think I can move. What the hell did you do to me, Ford? I’ve never had multiple orgasms while having sex. If this is how you fuck every time, I’m never letting you leave my bed,” she says.

  I frown. I have never in my life used the term ’fucking’ to describe sex, and it bothers me to hear her say it. “Umm, I think we can describe what we did as making love,” I say, and I don’t feel like a dumbass for saying it because it’s how I feel.

  She gapes at me, blushing a little. “Isn’t that supposed to be my line?” she asks me, and I laugh.

  “I guess it is, but I don’t care. I have never felt like this before.”

  She looks at me funny and then kisses me deeply, pulling me back into bed.

  Two days later, I’m meeting with the real estate agent. I still want to buy that land, but I want to give it as a wedding gift to Kali. I want to ask her to marry me, but I’m afraid she’s going to think I’m crazy. We only met a month ago, and me popping the question so soon might make her break up with me, but I’m willing to take that chance. The ring arrived this morning from New York, and it’s safely tucked in my jacket.

  I’m shocked to see Kali in the realtor’s office when I walk in, and she frowns when she sees me. “Baby, what are you doing
here?” I ask her.

  “Tim asked me to come and meet the prospective buyer of a piece of land my aunt left me.” Understanding suddenly dawns on her because her eyes go cloudy. “You’re the buyer, aren’t you? You want to build a resort here and put me out of business, don’t you?” she says, and her voice breaks in pain.

  “Baby, it’s not like that. Please, hear me out,” I plead, but she’s already at the door.

  “I don’t believe you,” she tells me, looking over her shoulder to glare at me coldly.

  I take a deep breath, frustrated. I’m such an asshole. I should have told her about the land because now I might lose her if she decides she doesn’t believe me.

  “Was this all just a sham to make me sell you my land? Please, answer me,” she says, and I’m horrified when I see tears running down her cheek.

  “Baby, I love you. It’s true, I wanted to buy the land to build a hotel, but I didn’t know you owned it. I swear.”

  It breaks my heart to see so much rejection and distrust on her face. “You don’t know what love is, Ford. Tell me you didn’t wanted to build a huge resort here.”

  “Of course, I did. It’s what I do, and that is why I came here. But I fell in love with you the first night I saw you on that beach. I wanted to buy the land as a wedding present for you. You told me about your dream of building a resort here, so I wanted to help you achieve that.”

  “Wedding?” she whispers. “What have you been smoking, Ford?”

  I sigh and pull out the velvet red box from my jacket pocket. I kneel in front of her and open the box, showing her the huge blue diamond I bought for her. “Kali, I love you. Would you do me the honor of being my wife? I swear I didn’t intend to deceive you and only wanted to buy the land as a wedding present.”
