Mateo moves my arms up and places them around his neck. “You like me, hey?” he asks, giving me a cheeky smile.

“Yes. I’m pretty sure last night proved that.” I feel my cheeks turn red, remembering what we did.

“And do you think it is something you would like to do again?” he asks, walking me backward. My back hits the island. Mateo cages me in, pushing his large body against mine. I can already feel his length hardening against my thigh.

“Of course, I’m only human.”

Mateo then picks me up and places me on the island’s edge, the robe slipping open and exposing my nakedness. He looks down and licks his lips when he sees my pussy exposed in front of him.

“You’re so beautiful, Zoe,” he whispers as his hand slides up my exposed thigh.

My hand reaches out and stops him from going any further which pulls a frown across his brows.

“Tomas isn’t here. I’m not going to do anything behind his back,” I explain to him.

Mateo pouts. “Fine, but this conversation isn’t over. When Tomas comes back, I think we might have a lot to talk about.”

I think we might.

“Go get cleaned up and let us feed you breakfast,” he says as he picks me up off the island and places me back on the floor. He then sends me on my way not before giving my ass a hard slap in the process.

A hot shower does amazing things for sore muscles. I may have stood under the high-pressure showerhead for way too long, but it felt good. I quickly pull on a cute white dress, dry my hair, and throw it up into a bun before returning to the kitchen.

The boys aren’t there, but I see they are outside setting up in the pool cabana. I walk through the glass doors and out toward where they are fussing about. My steps slow as I take in these two handsome men. How did I get so lucky? Mateo’s changed into yellow board shorts and a white t-shirt. While Tomas is dressed in navy shorts and a white polo. Both look like they have stepped out of the pages of GQ magazine.

Mateo smiles when he notices me lingering behind them. He walks over and greets me with kisses on both cheeks. “Don’t you look fresh?”

“Morning, Zoe,” Tomas calls out from behind Mateo and flashes me a warm smile.

Mateo ushers me toward the pool cabana where Tomas greets me with a kiss.

“We wanted to do something nice for you for breakfast this morning,” Tomas explains as he pulls back the curtain on the cabana to reveal a large bouquet of flowers in the center of the table. A chilled bottle of champagne in an ice bucket and a selection of breakfast tapas.

I’m taken aback by the spread. It’s set up like it’s a date. Is this a date? I’m not sure what’s going on?

“Please sit,” Mateo asks, pushing me toward the cabana booth.

I step in and take a seat on the edge.

“Move into the middle, angel,” Mateo asks.

I scoot over into the middle, then Mateo and Tomas each take a seat on either side of me.

“This looks amazing.” I stare down at the rainbow-filled platters of food just as my stomach decides to make itself known.

“Eat, you’re starving.” Tomas chuckles as he offers up a platter of food to me.

I can’t believe they did all of this for me.

“You’re going to need your strength for later,” Mateo whispers, giving me chills.

“Ouch.” Mateo winces, rubbing his shin.

“I asked you to dial back the flirting. We don’t want to scare her off,” Tomas tells Mateo.

I turn to Tomas. “I’m not going anywhere.”

“I know, but …” Tomas thinks about his words for a moment. “We have a proposition for you.”
