“What?” she asked. “Lemme see.”

“‘Daddy’s been good to li’l baby. He ’bout to clap these cheeks. #baecation #mymanmymanmyman #summerlovin’,’” I read.

“It did not say that,” Abril disputed, wiggling her fingers for her phone.

I handed it to her and watched in amusement as her face reddened and fell.

“Told you.”

“Damn. But that doesn’t count. Yams always act out. She probably saw someone in his comments and wanted to make the girl jealous.”

“A bet is a bet, baby doll.”

“Come on, Juju. Pulleeez.” She pouted with puppy-dog eyes.

“One more chance. If either of them does the same thing, that’s ya ass.”

“Okay,” she replied.

While she scrolled through her phone, I searched Nick’s and then Thad’s pages on my phone. I found both my guys tagged in a similar post as Yamika had posted about Evyn. Abril’s shoulders sagged, and she sighed in resignation.

I took pride in reading their comments. “Nina says, ‘No longer in the market. I found the one my heart desires.’”

“Ugghh! I hate my friends. Nina always gotta be a romance girlie.”

“Oh, let’s not forget Miss Kam. ‘Y’all better pray we’re not about to make this couple a threesome. And I’m not talking about another woman or nigga. My baby don’t believe in pullout, and I didn’t bring a Plan B on our #baecation. #Masterofmyheart #Icallhim sir #FutureMrsMasters.’”

“Okay. I get it. Dang.”

“Only thing you ’bout to get, Ms. Severs, is this dick in them guts. Get in that water, baby girl. Daddy ’bout to clap them cheeks.”

She jumped off my lap and ran. It was only a matter of seconds before I scooped her up, squealing, and ran into the ocean with her in my arms.

“They’re gon’see us, Juju,” I moaned.

July tugged my bottom lip down with his. “No they won’t, baby.”

He sucked on my lips before he claimed my tongue with his. I loved the connection that we had, but the physical chemistry was off the charts. This man always set my body on fire with a touch of his hand, the cocky smirk he wore, or the way his bedroom eyes grew sultry and heavy when he wanted me.

I tried to back out of the bet, but he wasn’t having it. My thighs were wrapped around his body, and his muscular arms held me aloft. From the beach, anyone looking at us might assume that we were standing in the ocean, making out. Ourkisses were tawdry and hot, and I was thankful that our resort was adults-only.

The truth was, my black thong swimsuit was tugged aside, and July was deep in my guts. My belly was filled with nothing but him as he pumped inside of me.

“Oh damn, Juju.” I moaned, coming up from the kiss as he thrust harder and deeper.

“Give me them lips, baby.”

“Oh, baby. It feels so good. I need to scream.”

“That’s why I need them lips. Let me swallow that shit, same as you do this nut.”

I pressed into him and brushed my lips against his.

“Nah, you gotta kiss me full on. Otherwise, everybody gon’ know I’m digging in these guts.”

His fingers spread my ass cheeks apart and slid into my hole. All I had to say was, thank God our bodies were covered by the ocean water from the waist down. I opened my mouth for him, and he sucked on my tongue again before kissing me down. Our mouths were hot and salty, and the kiss was passionate and deep, punctuated by a series of moans and sighs.

I didn’t want this moment to end, because it felt so good. Out here in the ocean, on this small island, I was hundreds of miles away from home, and I had never been more at peace and more at ease than now.
