“Dylan,” I manage, my voice breathy. “We can’t… not here.”
He pulls back slightly, searching my face. The raw desire in his eyes nearly undoes me. “You’re right,” he says, taking a deep breath. “Not here.”
I nod, a surprising surge of disappointment flooding through me. “Back to the cabin?”
Dylan’s grip on my waist tightens. “If that’s what you want. But I warn you, Caress, once we’re back in the cabin… I’m not sure I’ll be able to control myself.”
His words send another wave of heat through me. I meet his gaze, seeing my own desire reflected back at me. “Maybe I don’t want you to control yourself,” I whisper, surprising myself with my boldness.
Dylan groans, pressing his forehead against mine. “You’re playing with fire, Cari.”
I lick my lips. “Perhaps I want to get burned.”
Dylan’s eyes darken as he slips his hand to the small of my back without another word, and all but runs as he leads me through the ship.
Chapter Eight
Dylan
I can barely keep my hands off Caress as we make our way back to my cabin. The sway of her hips in that Navy dress is hypnotic. Our eyes meet, and electricity crackles between us.
“Someone’s eager,” Caress teases, a coy smile playing on her lips.
“You have no idea,” I growl softly. My gaze catches on Infinity’s signature ice cream shop up ahead. Perfect. “Hey, why don’t you go on to my cabin? I’ll grab us a little something extra.”
Caress arches an eyebrow. “Oh? What did you have in mind?”
I lean in close, my lips brushing her ear. “Trust me, it’ll be worth the wait.”
A shiver runs through her body. I press the cabin key into her palm, my fingers lingering. “Five minutes. Be ready for me.”
Caress pouts playfully. “And if I’m not?”
Unable to resist, I run my tongue along the shell of her ear. She whimpers softly, the sound shooting straight to my groin. “Oh, you will be,” I murmur. “Naked. Legs spread. Don’t make me wait.”
With a swift smack to her ass that makes her gasp, I turn and stride toward the ice cream shop. My mind races with possibilities. After years of dancing around each other, tiptoeingthe line between boss and employee, friend and lover, I can finally show Caress exactly how I feel. No more holding back.
Six minutes later, I enter my cabin, Perhaps in hand. The sight before me stops me in my tracks. Caress lies on the bed, the sheet barely covering her curves. As our eyes lock, she slowly pushes it aside and spreads her legs, giving me a tantalizing view.
“Took you long enough,” she purrs.
I drink her in hungrily, hardly believing this moment is real. “Damn, you’re gorgeous,” I breathe as I move to set the Perhaps in the mini-freezer, grateful that I was able to get a few in individual wrappers.
I start stripping, never taking my eyes off her. Caress watches intently, biting her lower lip as I reveal more skin. When I finally slide off my boxers, her gaze fixates on my erect cock.
“Like what you see?” I ask, voice husky with desire.
Caress nods, a blush coloring her cheeks. “God, yes.”
I climb onto the bed, hovering over her. “Good. Because I plan on savoring every inch of you.”
I can’t help the smile that spreads across my face as I retrieve one of the cherry-flavored Perhaps, and my coffee mug before returning to the bed. Her eyes are dark with desire, a look I’ve dreamed about for far too long.
“I’ve been thinking about this moment for a while now,” I admit, my voice low and husky as I return to the bed. “And I intend to make every second count.”
I unwrap the Popsicle, the plastic crinkling in the charged silence between us. Slowly, I remove it from the wrapper, draining melted liquid into my mouth before lowering the rest of the ice pop to Caress’s right nipple. She whimpers at the contact, her back arching slightly.
“Too cold?” I ask, immediately pulling back.
