“Yes,” I hissed, surprised by how true it was.
“Fuck, yeah. I need to feel your tight little pussy clench against me as I make you come. Can you give that to me, Zoe?”
His hips picked up the pace, slamming into me, and then I was there—splintering apart with him inside me.
“Landon!” I screamed.
“So fucking perfect,” he groaned, thrusting deep and bucking against me. His entire body tensed as he came right along with me.
We stayed like that, locked together intimately, for a minute or so before Landon relaxed and rolled to the side, keeping me next to him. We were both sweaty and panting for breath. Closing my eyes, the intense highs and lows of the day caught up with me and I drifted off to sleep in Landon’s arms.
“C’mon, baby. You need to wake up. I want you to take a nice, hot bath before we hit the road.”
“Mmm,” I hummed sleepily. I didn’t want to wake up, but... “A bath sounds good.”
“If I hadn’t been so damn rough with you, it could wait until we got to Jeremy’s house in Malibu and you could use the hot tub there instead,” he grumbled as he lifted me into his arms to carry me into the bathroom. “But I don’t want you in any pain during the drive.”
The mention of Malibu woke me up all the way, sparking my curiosity since he’d never gotten around to explaining it to me the day before.
“Malibu?”
“Yeah, baby. For our honeymoon.”
Then I realized I was naked in Landon’s arms. I’d spent the night sleeping next to him, after we’d had sex. Holy crap, this was not how I thought we’d start off our temporary marriage.
Chapter 6
Landon
I opened the passenger door of the rental car and squatted down beside Zoe. We’d been driving for almost six hours and she was fast asleep. Leaning in, I brushed my lips over hers.
Her eyes fluttered and I smiled, stroking a finger down her soft cheek. “We’re here, baby.” I unbuckled her while she rubbed the sleep from her eyes and yawned.
After getting to my feet, I helped Zoe out of the car. It was going on eight at night, but the summer days were long, so the sun was just beginning to set. There was a glow to everything around us.
Her eyes were wide as she took it all in. She was too cute. I couldn’t resist pulling her to me and kissing her deeply before stepping back and taking her hand. Moving towards the large, white beach house, we followed a stone path to the front door.
Once the door was unlocked, I let her enter first and enjoyed the sight of her hips swaying as she walked towards the back of the house. My cock hardened painfully, reminding me that it had been too fucking long since I’d been inside her. After her bath in the morning, I’d wanted her again, but I was sure she was incredibly sore and we didn’t have the time for me to go slow. I was forced to endure the torture of the long drive, constantly entertaining the option of finding a hotel for a couple of hours. Only the thought of her comfort had me pushing on so we could get to our destination and relax.
Zoe’s gasp drew me from my fantasies of fucking her with that sweet little ass nestled up to my groin. She was sliding open one of the three sets of glass doors that looked out over a deck with steps leading right down to a private beach. She ran outside and into the sand, then twisted from side to side so her feet became buried.
She laughed. “This feels so strange and kind of amazing at the same time.”
I knew she’d never been to the beach and experiencing this first along with her was exhilarating. Grinning, I plodded over to her and lifted her into my arms. “It feels even better in the water.” I began making my way to the gently rolling waves.
“I can walk,” she insisted, bucking a little in my arms to get me to put her down. I chuckled and gripped her more firmly. Her eyes narrowed and she poked me in the chest. “Don’t you dare get me wet.”
My head fell back as I roared with laughter. When it died down, I looked at her seriously. “I don’t need to drop you in the ocean to get you wet, Blondie.”
Zoe’s cheeks flushed and her wiggling turned to squirming. I almost turned right around and took her back to the house, but I was eager to see her reaction to the ocean.
Finally reaching the water, I lowered her down my body, loving the way her breathing sped up as she rubbed against me.
“Shit! It’s so cold!” she yelped as soon as her feet were submerged. Immediately, she tried to climb me like a fucking tree. I had no objection to her being wrapped around me, so I grabbed her ass and held her close. Suddenly, everything faded away and it was just us surrounded by the sound of the tide. I would never classify myself as a romantic, but right then, I felt like we were in one of those perfect movie moments. I was holding my whole world in my arms and I would do whatever it took to make sure she stayed there.
