The Billionaire’s Runaway Bride(16)

Grace had enjoyed the rest of the evening, the party not ending until after two in the morning, Alexos leading her to her room, this time only lifting her hand to kiss it as he had wished her a good night, she surprised at how disappointed she had felt, falling asleep that night with thoughts of the handsome Greek filling her dreams.

While they had had a late night, it did not stop the two getting up early, Grace chuckling as they had boarded the cruiser that had been leant to him by his friends, she laughing telling him that her friends only ever leant her pens as he had laughed back telling her that she needed new friends.

The dive site had not been far from where they had moored the cruiser. The size of the ship bigger than any she had previously been on, its six suites and crew’s quarters for the four crew members who had managed the ship so ably. A rib boat had taken them the rest of the way Grace once more not realising how she shone with the anticipation of the upcoming dive.

In the water the two had seemed to almost naturally fall in behind the other, giving each other just enough space, the waters not quite as clear as it had been in Greece, but Grace enjoying every moment. As the hour long dive had come to an end, the two had returned to the ship, both talking animatedly about what they had seen.

For the rest of the day they had enjoyed cruising along the coastline, both relaxing in the sun as she had laughed “This is so decadent” Alexos returning her smile.

“Well, given the fact that I am pulling 12 to 14 hour shifts … I feel that this is just what the doctor ordered”.

Peering at him through her sunglasses, he had indeed looked more relaxed, knowing that even during one of the days he had taken as a holiday he had spent working, Grace had realised that perhaps he was not as much of a playboy as she had initially thought.

As the sun had started to sink the ship had once more moved back to dock. Taking her hand, this small act seeming so natural now, his face had been full of fun.

“OK…We can go back to the hotel and change into evening wear and attend another party….or….we could blow it off and find a nice place down by the water”

Looking up at him she had scrunched up her nose, eyes shining with laughter “Oh I think that another party would be …bad”

Alexos giving her an approving smile “I applaud your decision”#p#分页标题#e#

The two had found a quant waterside restaurant, enjoying the authentic local cuisine and house wine. Sitting outside with the sound of the cicadas and the light from the candles throwing shadows around them Grace had looked at Alexos, once more finding her heartbeat thumping so loud in her own ears as she had tried not to stare at the way his handsome mouth had lifted in the corner, his eyes holding hers with real warmth.

“What are you thinking of Grace Leotta?”

His soft question had thrown her, as with a small flush she had given a contented smile back.

“I was thinking….that this had been nice”

Alexos reached over and entwining his fingers into hers he had given a small throaty chuckle.

“This has been……..very nice” the two just looking at each other before the waiter had once more moved to their table breaking the moment.

That night as he had once more moved to her suite he had again taken her hand dropping another kiss onto her velvety skin. This time however, she had moved closer to him bringing their bodies together her face upturned to look at his. As the flecks in her eyes had grown so green they had dropped to flick so sensually to his lips, Alexos groaned as his hands had moved to hold her shoulders. As their eyes had once more locked on each other he had given a small sigh, his mouth falling to kiss hers, not gently or tenderly, but full of fire, her hands moving around his waist hauling her in harder to him as she had risen on tiptoes to deepen the kiss further.

She had felt his fingers slide through her hair, her own hand moving against him as though belonging to someone else, someone less shy, sliding along the waistband of his jeans enjoying the way he had jumped, pulling her in even harder, whispering soft words against her mouth. Taking her key card from her hand and still kissing her he had deftly opened the door, she had moved backwards into the room with him, their hands all over each other, before the bed against the back of her legs had sent her falling onto the softness, Alexos falling with her.

His weight over her had sent a shock of desire through her as her hands had slipped under his shirt, nails scraping his back as she had quivered under him, wanting more, wanting him, the heat of need burning so low in her stomach, Grace writhing under him as he had given a low growl. Raising his head the look of lust on his face had sent a raw satisfaction through her, his head dropping to kiss along her throat, his tongue licking the small pulse beating so fast there.
