Three Alpha Romeo

ANDREA

We kissed for forever, or at least it sure seemed that way. Our lips churning hungrily, dreamily, as we rolled around in the hypnotic near-darkness.

Eventually we were under the sheets and blankets. Kicking our clothes off not so much for sex, but so our warm bodies could slide deliciously against one another without any barriers.

The things Marcus had tol

d me had touched my heart. I wasn’t the least bit angry, or even judgmental. After all, I’d loved my father more than any man in the world. And though I was ignorant of most of his misdeeds, I’d forgiven him long ago for anything he’d ever done.

We bonded, Marcus and I. On levels that could only be reached through heartfelt loss and shared experience. But there was a heat between us, too. A intense fire that burned every time he touched me, from the moment I’d placed his hands on my ass in that bedchamber on Rhodes, until the unspeakably hot things we’d done last night…

… and were doing right now.

Last night, we’d fucked. He and I and Randall. It had been wonderful, hot, crazy. Totally amazing. This time though…

This time we made love.

We never stopped kissing as Marcus rolled me on top of him, guiding me down with two strong hands onto his rock-hard member. My pussy throbbed around him as he pushed all the way inside me. And at the exact moment of our total connection, I swore I could feel some sort of ‘click’, somewhere deep in my belly.

It was the click of familiarity. A click of belonging.

Our tongues continued exploring each other’s mouths as I rode up and down on him. Marcus’s hands slid up to my breasts, his palms dragging across my areola in slow, gentle circles, until my nipples were stiff and hard. He stopped kissing me just long enough to take them in his mouth, one after the other. He nibbled and bit on them playfully, as I clenched his head to my chest and continued working his cock as far into my body as possible.

We were still kissing when we erupted together, in glorious, simultaneous release. The added excitement of having to moan my orgasm into his beautiful mouth only made me come even harder, grinding myself downward against the exquisite feeling of his wet, gooey explosion, which happened so achingly deep, at my very core.

He stayed inside me a long time after that. Touching me. Caressing me. Feeling every inch of my skin beneath his broad, calloused fingertips. Then he pulled me back on top of him, to kiss some more…

And we fell asleep for the rest of the afternoon, wrapped comfortingly in each other’s arms.

It was almost dark outside when the phone finally went off. Marcus and I were elbow-deep in room service by then, having ordered one of just about everything. I had to lick my fingers before answering the phone.

“They’re ready,” I announced, after a brief conversation with Holden. “They’ll be downstairs in ten.”

“Time for us to shower?” Marcus grunted, reaching out for me.

I dodged his slow, clumsy grab by bouncing off the bed. Naked and giggling, I shook my ass on the way to the bathroom.

“If we shower shower, yes.”

I hit the spigot, and water began to spray. Somewhere behind me, I heard the big Ranger groan in protest.

“Where the hell’s the fun in that?”

Thirty-Four

ANDREA

The flight was all clear skies and smooth air, like floating on glass. High above us, the sky was flecked with a billion shimmering stars. Down below, the Ionian Sea was a pool of unending darkness, streaked only by the thin light of the moon.

“What’d you fly while you were still in, anyway?” Marcus was asking Randall.

“Whatever I could get my hands on,” the tattooed SEAL replied. “Trainers, mostly. A few utility transports. Once I even started up a helicopter…”

Holden sat behind them both, in the seat beside me. I saw him grin as he laughed into the mic. “He did more than just start it up,” he said. “Go ahead. Tell him the best part.”

“What part?”

“The part about your license.”
