King pointed out a new set of waves, and East nodded as he turned his back on it and waited.
Bodysurfing was an entirely new concept to me. I didn’t even know you could surf without a board, but watching them both swim out and catch waves with their incredible bodies was my new favorite sport.
To watch, anyway. No way in hell would you catch me setting foot in there.
East swung his arms in front of him as he launched himself into the wave, keeping his lean body straight as he glided across like he’d been doing it his whole life. Apparently he’d tried it before, but with King’s instruction, he looked like a pro. They were both insane. Sexy, but insane.
I let out a piercing whistle as East popped out of the water near where King was clapping. He heard me and grinned before standing and brushing his hair back off his face. King approached, the two of them falling into an animated conversation that was so interesting to watch. They’d never had a friendly type of relationship, so seeing them together and watching the easy way they got along over a common interest had me wondering how long this would all last.
One week only, right? Just sex and a good time. King was definitely fulfilling his end of the bargain there. He’d never promised answers about his private life, but the small glimpses we’d gotten had me dying to know more.
His words from yesterday still echoed through my mind.
I stayed because I saw Zac’s potential…
A surge of emotion ran through me yet again, because holy shit. He’d held me in such high esteem that he rearranged his life…to helpme? I couldn’t comprehend that. No one had ever done anything like that for me, and King had never even mentioned it. I’d known nothing about his real life, but he was trying to help me make my way in mine?
East jogged out of the water, catching my attention as his swim trunks rode low on his hips. His skin glistened under the sun as he walked my way, his long strides not at all deterred by the mounds of sand between us.
Okay, he’s fuckin’ hot. Ridiculously so.
“Now this is one hell of a sexy personal cheering section,” he said, standing over me.
“Don’t do it,” I warned.
He gave me an innocent look. “Do what?”
Before I could move, he leaned down and ran his fingers through his hair, shaking the water onto my heated skin.
I tried to dodge the droplets, but it was no use. The cool water hit my sun-kissed skin and actually felt nice. Not that I was about to tellhimthat.
“Looked like you needed cooling off,” East said as he grabbed up a towel and dried himself off. “Not that I could blame you. Who wouldn’t watching us out there?”
“Feeling yourself a little bit, are you?”
“You’re the one who couldn’t tear your eyes off me.”
I had no comeback for that because he was right. I’d been practically drooling over the two of them. Why should I hide it? “YouandKing.”
“Well, yeah, that guy’s body should be on magazine covers—and I amnottalking aboutMen’s Health. Although he’d probably sell a shit-ton of those.”
He spread his towel out beside mine and lay back so he was propped up on his arms. Just as he got settled, King stretched his arms out in front of himself in a perfect arc and caught a rolling wave nearly all the way to shore.
“Fucking hell. Look at his form,” East said.
“Yeah, he’s really good.”
“I’m not talking about hisstyle. Those arms? The power there is insane, and—” East’s words fell off as King got to his feet and looked up the beach at us, water running down that sculpted chest to where it was lapping around his thick thighs. Then he wiped a hand over his face and turned back to the incoming waves. “How is that man single?”
“Luck,” I said. “He hasn’t always been.”
“Single?”
“Hmm?” I turned to see East looking over his sunglasses at me.
“You said he hasn’t always been. I’m assuming you mean single. How do you know that? There’s no mention anywhere about him and a significant other—I looked before we decided to make a play.”
My lips twitched as I remembered the colossal failure of our “play.”
