Valeria

“Iam thinking of stripping you naked and ravishing you in the desert.”

I swallowed the lump in my throat after hearing Khalid’s words. He certainly had a way with them. Even though I had reached my peak a few moments ago, my body wanted him again.

It was crazy how much he affected me.

It was even crazier that I was about to ask him to strip me naked and ravish me in the desert.

But my words died in my throat when I heard the rustling of water. We were close to the lake he wanted to take me to.

Khalid helped me down the horse, and I felt embarrassed to look in his direction, remembering how he had told me to ride his hand or wait for his…argh, so so arrogant. Even though a small part of me enjoyed when he demanded me to do it.

“Is it safe to swim here?” I asked, the scent of fresh water and cool air kissing my bare skin.

Khalid pressed his hand on my lower back as he led me to the lake. “Very safe. Even the local kids come here to swim now and then. Why?” His hot lips pressed against my ear, making me shiver when he purred, “Are you thinking of skinny dipping in the lake, Valeria?”

My body zinged with excitement at the thought of swimming naked in a lake, alone with Khalid.Maybe I can repay him with some teasing, or try to tease him for before.

I walked out of his reach and grinned at him. “Yes, Prince Khalid, I am going to skinny dip.”

Feeling brave, I crossed my arms, and holding the hem of my top, I removed it. Cool air brushed across my bare breasts, making my nipples hard. I shivered and removed my pants along with the underwear. I took a deep breath and straightened up, standing naked in front of Khalid.

I heard him taking slow steps towards me and held my breath. My body scorched under his heated gaze as I tried not to take a step back. I was very aware of how alone I felt with his looming presence in the desert. There was on one around. Just both of us.

But I didn’t feel scared, I felt excited. Turned on. I wanted to know what he would do.

“You are a terrible tease, Valeria,” he said, his voice heavy as his fingers ran through my hair. I licked my lips, waiting and wanting. His warm lips pressed against my forehead. “Go on then, take a swim. I will wait here.”

Huh?

I tried not to frown as I asked, “You won’t join me?”

“Sadly, no, love.” Khalid took a step back. “I will watch over you. Just don’t swim too far.”

I understood his decision not to swim with me, but I still felt disappointed that he didn’t want to join me.

“Okay,” I muttered and walked towards the lake, my bare feet sinking in the wet mud. I let out the breath I was holding and relaxed as the cold water surrounded my body.

If Khalid wanted to be a party-pooper, I didn’t care. I would still have fun in the lake. It had been a long time since I swam.

Khalid

I sighed sadly as I watched Valeria’s pale body swim in the lake. I wanted to join her… but my back. I knew if I went to skinny dip with her, which I really wanted to, we would end up making out and touching each other. That meant her hands touching all over my body. Especially my back.

I didn’t want to make her freak out if she touched me. There was a reason I never removed my shirt in front of anyone. Even in private. I didn’t want anyone, including my family and especially Valeria, to see my back.

None of them needed to know about that.

So I watched her, kept an eye on her as she teased me while she backstroked. Her nipples flushed and pointed as she swam lazily, her wet hair clung to her body. Such a fucking tease.

I closed my eyes and forced myself to stay calm. Taking a deep breath, I opened my eyes and—

“Valeria?” I said, quickly standing up from the sand. “Valeria,” I called out to her once more when I couldn’t see her swimming in the lake.

Where the fuck did she go?

My heartbeat pounded in my ears as I quickly removed my shoes and walked inside the lake. Clothes be damned.
