“Oh, no. No further. If you’re going to teach me to swim, then we can do it right here,” she claimed.

Smiling, he agreed. “Now just remember, I got you. And I promise not to let you go.”

She looked at him, wondering if his words held a double meaning. Licking her lips, she looked at theother swimmers nervously. One had just exited the pool and the other was still doing laps. Sucking in a huge breath, she said, “So what do I do now?”

For the next several minutes, he had her float on her back with one of his hands under her back and the other at the bottom of her ass. He walked around giving her a chance to feel what it was like to have the water support her and not have her feet on the pool bottom.

She opened her eyes and saw him smiling down at her. She leaned up, losing the balance of floating and her head went under the water as Vinny’s arms immediately plucked her up. Sputtering, she clawed her hands toward him.

He moved them closer to the edge as he felt her panicked grasp. “I got you, babe. You’re fine,” he reassured. “You were doing great floating along.”

She clung to the edge and, realizing that her feet would not touch, began scooting her way toward the shallower end again.

“Hold on,” he said, halting her progress. “Hang on the side and practice kicking your legs.” He showed her several different kicks and she began to relax again, feeling comfortable holding on to the side of the pool.

Admiring the way her ass wiggled back and forth as she practiced her kicking, he once again had to force his dick to behave.

She smiled at him and then noticed his strained expression. “Are you alright?” she asked hesitantly.

He moved behind her, stilling her legs, and caging her in with his massive arms on either side of her.Slowly floating inward, he pressed his front against her back until there was no mistaking the evidence of his desire.

“Oh,” she said with a giggle.

He moved away and growled, “Let’s finish up the lesson for tonight and get upstairs, baby. Seeing you looking all sexy as hell in this bathing suit is killing me.”

Twisting around, she looked confused. “This? Vinny, I look like I’m a kid in this old thing.”

With her now facing him, he pressed in again, this time his swollen dick nestled against her core. “You don’t look like a kid, Annalissa. You’re fucking hot in this and all I can think about is peeling it off of your delicious body.” Moving in for a kiss, he captured her lips as he plunged his tongue inside. The kiss had taken on a life-force of its own before he pulled back.

Her wet hair hanging about her shoulders, the ends floating all around. Her eyes still closed. Her lips kiss-swollen.I’ve never seen anything so beautiful.Knowing he needed to stop before he took her in the pool, he moved away keeping her hands firmly in his, pulling her along.

Her eyes popped open as he gently ordered, “Kick your legs, babe. Just like if you were still hanging on the side.”

She kicked along,feeling the force keeping her lower body high in the water as he pulled her along from the front. His hands were firm and strong. Moving all over the pool, even in the deep end, she knew he would never let go.Safe. Secure. Cared for. Loved?

Slowly they made their way to the shallow end of the pool where he assisted her out. Taking the towelfrom her hands, he dried her off before wrapping her in a large, dry one.

She lifted her face toward his, smiling. “I was kind of swimming, wasn’t I?” she said proudly.

“Absolutely, babe. We keep doing this and you’ll be swimming laps before you know it.” He met her lips, taking the kiss deeper. Pulling back, he tagged her hand as they headed toward the back elevator.Quickly entering his apartment, he hustled her into the warm shower.

And then he did exactly what he’d been wanting to do for an hour. He peeled the bathing suit slowly off of her body, exposing all of her beauty to his eyes.

Then he worshiped her long into the night.

The next morning found Vinny and Annalissa arriving at the Alvarez Security building. Moving into the large work area, they found everyone gathered. The others greeted her warmly and Tony motioned for them to sit down.

“I’ve got a friend that was able to pull up the security camera feed from the airport in LA. I want you to watch them as carefully as you can to see if you recognize anyone.”

She sat for the next hour, carefully watching everything on the screen, but came up empty. She looked at the men, saying, “I’m sorry. I just don’t see anyone I know.”

Tony nodded and then moved to the file in front ofhim. “Don’t be sorry, Annalissa. It’s not your job to have to identify anyone. We just want as much input from you as we can get.”

She visibly relaxed, sinking back into her chair. Vinny’s hand slid from the edge of her chair to her shoulders, noting how tense they were. His eyes cut over to the others and silently signaled for a break.

“We’ll take a break, get some food in here and then we’ll resume checking into your contacts, all right?” Tony inquired politely.

“I’m fine, really.” Cutting her eyes over to Vinny, she said, “You don’t have to coddle me, you know. I’m not going to fall apart.”
