Page 89 of Hawaii Can Suck It

The kiss. It wasn’t about me. It wasn’t some earth-shattering moment of passion where he couldn’t resist me anymore.

It was pent-up, sex-starved frustration. Exactly like mine.

I narrow my eyes. “Then I propose we do something about it.”

Reece goes completely still.

The only sound is the fierce storm outside, wind battering the windows, rain pounding against the glass as if Mother Nature herself is a co-conspirator screaming,Just fuck already!

His voice is tight, careful. “Together?”

“Well, Gordon made it pretty damn clear we can’t do it with anyone else.”

For the first time, I see his internal battle—logic battling animalistic need.

“I don’t think it’s a good idea,” he finally mutters, voice gruff, but there’s a crack in his restraint now. I can feel it.

“Why not? How long has it been since you’ve had sex, Dare?”

He says nothing. That hesitation? Dead giveaway.

“You already know my sad story,” I say. “Six months. You said ‘a while.’ Fess up. How long?”

“… A year.”

“¡Mierda! No wonder you kissed me.”

He starts to apologize, but I cut him off. “You can’t take it back. That kiss happened. And now my poor, deprived, pathetically touch-starved body has officially reached its tipping point.” I step forward, tilting my chin up, locking eyes with him. “So either you have sex with me, or I’m going to fuck myself.”

And then something happens I’ve never seen in my entire life.

Reece’s dick jumps.

Not a twitch.

Not a flinch.

A full-on, fucking leap—right under his robe.

I deliberately drag my gaze down. “Huh. That’s interesting.”

“I should go.”

“Go. Stay. I don’t care.”

I fiddle with the buttons on the device, finally managing to turn it on. The V-shaped gadget buzzes to life, one end spinning while the other vibrates intensely.

“God, what the hell does that do?”

“Simultaneous clit and G-spot stimulation.” I grin, turning it over in my hand, admiring it like a fine wine. “It’ll get the job done. And then some.”

His eyes turn molten.

I step closer. “We’ve established we don’t like each other, yeah?”

He hesitates. “Uh huh.”

“So I’ll give you the option. Stay, and if you decide to join me, great. I get some extra orgasms.”
