"I think you should find out, too." I moved out into the water and grabbed Vivian's narrow wrist, pulling her with me. "Come get in the water with me, and I'll let you pet my eel if you promise to be gentle."
"Oh my God. You did not just..." she glanced back as Casey moved up behind us. "He did not.”
"He did. Wicked hot. I wanna pet it." Casey clapped her hands and laughed before wading out into the deeper part of the water with us. I stopped as it covered the top of my trunks and turned to face Viv as Casey moved past us. "I want the results on my desk by ten in the morning!"
"Stop it," Vivian grumbled at her friend before turning a hard stare onto me. There was no way she was bending beneath our combined pressure. She was too much woman for that.
"All yours, Viv. Come test out the theory." I lifted my hands to the side as if inviting her to do what she wanted to me. "Just don't get upset when I say that I told you so."
"There is no way in hell I'm sticking my hand down your shorts." She moved up to almost press her chest to mine. "You're just pulling my chain. If I reached for your cock you would jerk back and run like a girl to the shoreline."
My breath caught in my chest as I lowered my arms, wrapping them around her instead. "Never. I'd groan a little and maybe moan a lot, but that would depend on your skill set."
"It's not happening, handsome." Her eyes moved around my face as her breathing got a little off kilter.
"But you want to. I can see it written all over your face." I chuckled low in my chest, enjoying the expression on her face far more than I should have. She was mortified that I'd called her out.
"I want to!" Casey yelled from just behind us, and we broke up into laughter. I started to push the subject a little more with Vivian, but a scream ripped from her friend, which stole my attention.
Turning, I rushed toward Casey and reached for her. "What's the matter?"
"Something bit me." She jumped toward me, and I caught her, turning and nodding to Viv. "Probably a jellyfish, but let's make sure. We'll get someone to check it out. There's a minute clinic right beside the showers over there."
Casey's eyes filled with tears as she clung to me. "It hurts like a bitch. Check it and make sure my ankle isn't torn open."
Vivian moved up beside us and ran her hand down Casey's leg. "It's red but–”
"Ouch! That fucking hurts!" Casey screamed as Vivian jerked her hand back.
"It's okay. We'll get it fixed up. Just grind your teeth together and try and relax." I jogged toward the minute clinic and moved back as Vivian opened the door. Casey couldn't have weighed more than a hundred pounds, which was appreciated seeing that I was jogging through sand with wet feet.
We got Casey checked in and situated in the back before making our way back to the tiny waiting room. I sat down and let out a long sigh, realizing that our towels, clothes and room keys were still on the beach. My pretty cohort sat down beside me and ran her fingers through her hair.
"She's okay, right?" Vivian looked a little shaken.
"Yeah, just a jelly sting. They'll get the stinger out and give her a little bit of ointment. No big deal. Come here." I wrapped my arm around her shoulder and tugged her closer on the cold bench seat. "You didn't get stung, did you?"
"No. I was too concerned with testing out your sock theory." She gave me a saucy smile.
"You wanted to. I knew it." I licked my lips playfully.
Her laughter warmed me, but her persona drove me to reach up and touched the side of her face.
"You have no idea how beautiful you are." I brushed my thumb over her lip as my entire body lit on fire.
"Easton. Please." She glanced down, but returned her gaze to mine. I could see a hint of the desire that pumped through me pumping through her as well. It was all I needed.
"Hush." I leaned in and pulled her face toward mine, pressing my lips to hers as our noses brushed by each other. She opened her mouth and moaned softly, inviting me in as her tongue slid past mine.
I wanted to dominate her completely, but I forced my desires back and returned her soft exploring kiss. Not wanting it to end, I moved closer and continued to kiss and lick at her pretty mouth until she pulled back. Her eyes were glossy, lips wet, and the soft pants that left her almost sent me over the edge of desire.
"Don't do that again," she whispered.
I pulled her back toward me, kissing her again for good measure. I cupped her face in both of my hands and worked my tongue in and out of her mouth, wanting her to suck on it so damn bad. As if she could hear my inner thoughts, she began to suck softly, and then harder. We emulated the sex that it seemed we both wanted, and the room grew faint as I gave myself over to her. I wasn't one to put on a public display of affection, but something about this girl had me breaking all my rules.
I pulled back as the room started to spin and I got a little light-headed.
"Fuck," I grumbled and brushed my fingers over my lips. "Don't you know that telling a dominant male not
