“Zach… holy crap…” Lost in ecstasy, I threw my head back… “Zach!”
It startled me when he suddenly gripped my chin and forced my gaze to his. “Look at me and remember who made you come like this.” Angling his hips, he thrust forward and hit an even deeper spot. “I’m the only one who can give you this.” Another thrust. “Just fucking me.”
A few more of those hard thrusts was all it took for him to fall over the edge, and much to my shock, I fell with him. A second orgasm claimed me out of nowhere, this one just as intense as the one before.
I wanted to close my eyes and revel in the sensation, but I couldn’t take my gaze off Zach. His beautiful face masked in pleasure, he was looking at me with an intensity I could feel all the way to my soul.
“Ahora eres mia.”
It wasn’t the words as much as the way he said them that had the tiny wings of butterflies fluttering against my heart. Even more so when he lowered his head and kissed me with a tenderness I hadn’t experienced with him before.
He kissed me like I was precious. Like he never wanted to let me go.
Or maybe that was just wishful thinking.

“Dowereallyhaveto leave?”
Zach chuckled and put his arm around my shoulders. “I would love to stay for another two weeks but I’ve neglected my responsibilities long enough. I think if we don’t leave today, Sophie might send out a search party.”
We took a few more steps closer to the plane, and my stomach almost bottomed out.
Wiping my hands on my dress, I licked my lips and tried to keep my voice even. “I’m sorry I made you miss so much work.”
The words had barely left my mouth when Zach stopped walking and turned to face me. “I took a vacation for the first time in my life. You don’t need to apologize for that. Especially not when you’ve made it so damnenjoyable.”
Images of how we’d spent the past two weeks popped into my head, and I couldn’t keep the heat from rising into my cheeks. Which was pretty ridiculous, considering all the places we’d been and the things we’d done.
Smiling despite myself, I beamed up at him. “Yeah, it’s been nice.”
“Nice?” His gaze darkened dangerously, and he moved closer, obliterating my personal space. Those long fingers that were capable of wicked, wicked things slid up my neck and circled my nape. “Maybe I should drag you back to the car and show you how much better thanniceI can be.”
Pulling my mouth to his, he whispered against my lips, “Seems like you’ve already forgotten how hard you screamed my name just a few hours ago?”
“I haven’t.” The words came out in a stuttering breath. And just like that, I was back in the bathroom, perched on the counter with Zach’s face buried between my legs and his tongue driving me wild with pleasure.
This time when my skin heated, it had nothing to do with embarrassment.
And because I needed him about as much as I needed my next breath, I couldn’t resist stealing a quick kiss. One that was over far too soon but still left me floating on a cloud of happiness.
Unfortunately for me, that happy feeling instantly vanished the moment we set foot on the plane. My stomach churned, and my body couldn’t decide if it wanted to be hot or cold. And when the flight attendant greeted us, I heard her voice from inside a bubble.
Unaware of my panicked state, Zach led me to the plush seats at the back of the plane. As grateful as I was for sitting down, it didn’t do a thing to calm my nerves. My mind kept running in these ridiculous circles.
What if the pilot is drunk?
What if there’s a storm?
What if we make it home and my father punishes me for disobeying him?
What if he takes his anger out on the people I care about?
What if, what if, what if… It wouldn’t freaking stop.
A warm touch registered on top of my hand, and fingers gently stroked my skin. “Natalie, what’s wrong?”
