Ash looked back around and didn’t see Kallie anywhere in sight. So he confirmed where the meal needed to be charged, then went in search of her. He found her settled on the couch with the curtains drawn back and the television on.
“What did that fun little meal amount to?” she asked with a grin.
“Easily five thousand dollars,” Ash said.
“What?” she asked.
He chuckled as he sat down beside her, taking her feet and sliding them into his lap.
“Trust me, it’ll be worth it,” he said.
“Five thousand dollars for one meal. I could’ve had the chef come in and prepare us something.”
“Ah, so the ex added a chef to the deal. Smart man. Keeping you cooped up here all to himself. I’d do the same thing if you were mine.”
“I think you’re technically doing that now.”
“Hey, I’m not the one who invited me in,” he said.
Kallie giggled again and the sound was music to his ears.
Room service was delivered an hour later and Ash was starving. The two of them sat naked at the table and indulged the luscious foods, and there was something innately intimate about it. Ash fed Kallie buttered oysters and wiped away the buttery trail when it leaked down her chin. They clinked wineglasses and toasted to new adventures on the island before digging into their steaks. Kallie hummed over dinner and frequently rolled her eyes, all of which sent electric jolts to Ash’s groin.
Fuck, she was beautiful.
Even when she ate.
“Enjoying the food?” Ash asked.
“You’ll have to roll me out of here once I’m done,” Kallie said.
“How about I pick you up and carry you to the bed? How does that sound?”
“Like you had this planned,” she said with a grin.
“They come to me as the opportunity presents itself. I can’t be held accountable for the way certain situations unfold.”
“Uh-huh. So tell me, why is this cupcake so expensive?” she asked. “I take it that’s what’s underneath these two silver domes?”
“You ready to see them?” Ash asked.
“Oh yes. Very much so.”
He wiped his mouth off with his napkin before tossing the rest of his wine back. He refilled both of the glasses before standing up, then walked around behind the rolling food tray. His eyes flickered over toward Kallie and he gave her a cheeky grin, then quickly removed the domes and watched her eyes widen.
“Is that...?”
“It is,” Ash said.
“And it’s coated in...?”
“Yep.”
“The entire thing’s encased in gold!”
It was Ash’s turn to throw his head back and laugh.
“See why it’s so expensive now?” he asked.
“It’s a golden cupcake. With gold-covered strawberries.”
“And it comes with a golden spoon to eat it with,” he said.
“Is the golden spoon edible?”
“No, and you can’t keep it either. You’ll be charged a great deal if it goes missing.”
“I would assume so,” she said breathlessly.
“Ready to see what two thousand dollars tastes like?”
“Two thousand dollars?”
Ash laughed again as he set her dessert down in front of her.
“So, do you have any other plans while you’re on the island?” he asked.
“What do you mean?”
“Did you schedule yourself for anything? A spa day? A day out on the ocean? A dinner cruise?”
“I have no idea what you’re talking about,” she said.
“Wow. Okay. So there are these things called ‘attractions.’”
Ash was hit square in the forehead with a golden-covered strawberry.
“How does it feel to be hit with five hundred dollars?” Kallie asked.
Ash chuckled as he launched the strawberry back at her.
“Hey!”
“You started it,” Ash said.
“Oh, it’s on.”
Kallie picked up her cupcake and ran at Ash. She smeared it all over his face as he tried to wrangle her wrists. She threw her head back and laughed as Ash lunged for her, wiping the very expensive dessert all over her face and neck. Kallie picked up the shrimp cocktail and dumped it over Ash’s head, and he stood there as he dripped with cocktail juice.
Then he picked up the rest of the bottle of wine and poured it over Kallie’s head.
The two of them stood there, laughing and panting, and covered in the island’s most expensive meal. He watched Kallie’s cheeks flush, her hand sliding through her hair.
“That was good wine you just wasted,” she said.
“Really? Because you just slathered me in fifteen hundred dollars’ worth of edible gold,” Ash said.
“I need a shower now.”
“So do I.”
Then, a thought occurred to Ash.
“Follow me,” he said.
He held out his hand for Kallie and the meal they were eating was soon forgotten about. He led her into her bedroom and headed straight for the bathroom. Toward the jetted tub that was temperature controlled. He sat her down on the edge of the bathroom counter before he drew them a hot bath. The steam filled the room, immediately relaxing his body. He adjusted the temperature and waited until the water got high enough, then he kicked on the jet and turned to Kallie.
“Fancy a bath?” he asked as he held out his hand.
Kallie slid from the counter, and he helped her into the tub. The two of them snuggled in together, his arms wrapped around her form. He grabbed a cup and slowly poured the warm water over her hair, watching as the wine slipped down her body. Droplets of water-infused alcohol sliding between the valley of her breasts. The jets kicked up bubbles that shook her body against his. She leaned into him. Moaned with every cup of hot water he poured over her body.
He washed himself off, his eyes watching as the edible gold tinted the water around Kallie’s body.
“Feel better?” he asked.
“Mmm, much,” she said.
Ash put the cup away and wrapped his arms tightly around Kallie.
“How often do you venture to St. Barts?” she asked.
“What do you mean?”
“In your travels. Is St. Barts a place you frequent?”
“Ah. Yes, it is. I’m here for maybe four months out of the year?”
“So you really enjoy it here,” she said.
“I do. The sunsets are beautiful. The sand is soft. The drinks are good.”
“The women are beautiful?”
He craned his neck to look down at the top of her head.
“Very beautiful,” he said.
Kallie settled her head into the crook of his neck and sighed. Her lips reached out for his skin, pressing lightly against him. His cock began to grow against her back and his hands started to wander, and soon he found his fingers tugging at her begging nipples.
“Oh, Ash,” she said breathlessly.
“Tell me if you want me to stop,” he said.
Her eyes flew open and connected with his, a heated gaze flooding her green orbs.
“Never,” she said.
His hand cupped her breast as the other slid between her thighs. He bent down to capture her lips in a sweet kiss as her gasps filled his throat. He massaged the insides of her thighs as his fingers tweaked her tits, forcing her to arch deeper into the palms of his hands.
The kiss slowly deepened, and soon he could feel the whole of her mouth. His fingers parted her swollen pussy folds and dipped into her entrance. She moaned into his lips, causing him to grin against her. He slowly crooked his fingers and felt her press down into his hand.
Her body begged for him, and that pleased Ash.
His tongue battled hers as his hands grabbed onto her tits. Her legs parted as the jets raged around them, the water automatically cutting off after the water got too high. Her heels were propped up onto the edges of the bath. Sh
e was no longer shy. No longer hiding the sexual force that drove her body. His fingers slid deeper into her as his other hand slid from her breast to her clit, and together his hands began to drive her wild.
Pumping her full. Circling her clit. The water rolled and thrashed as she bucked wildly against his hands. He pulled patches of skin between his teeth and nibbled on her like a snack. Taking his fill of her as her head lolled to the side. His name fell from her lips in a breathless whisper as her pussy clamped down around his fingers. Slowly—gently—his fingers circled her clit. Until she was downright begging him for more.
“Please, Ash. I’ll do anything. Just go faster. Please. I love it fast. Ash. Ash, please.”
He picked up the pace as water splashed over the edge of the tub. Her legs shook, and his cock throbbed as he thrust against her back. Felt the softness of her skin rub against him as she ground into his body. Pressed deeper into him as his hands sank into her pussy. She thrust into his palms, leaking into the bathtub and tainting it with her smell. His cock was engorged. Throbbing. Ready to burst at a moment’s notice.
The things this woman did to him.
He had no idea how he was going to cope once she went home.
Her head fell back, and he crashed his lips into hers. His cock thrust against her back one last time and he released his load into the bath water. The jets were rumbling and her legs were shaking. Kallie was moaning into his lips and her pussy was pulling his fingers deeper into her body. He pressed himself into her clit. Cupped her throbbing pussy as she shook against him. He groaned with every spurt of cum that left his dick, simultaneously embarrassed and breathless at the sensation.
Kallie settled against him, their juices floating around them in the tub, and he held her close. His foot managed to find the drain and he hit it, unplugging the water and allowing it to guzzle down their sex-tainted water. His shaking hand toggled with the controls until the water came back on, filling the tub up with fresh, hot water they could soak in until they pruned.
Ash wanted to hold her a little while longer.
Chapter 18
Kallie
Kallie woke up the next morning tangled up in Ash’s arms. She rolled over and took in his beautiful features as he lay there next to her. She thought about their bath. About how wanton he had been for her. She traced her fingertips along his jawline, inching him awake as a yawn peeled his lips apart.
“Morning,” she said.
“Morning,” Ash said breathlessly.
“Did you sleep well?”
“Mhm. You?”
“Eh, it was okay,” she said with a grin.
Ash peeked out from one eye and it caused her to roll over and laugh.
“I need a shower,” she said.
“You took a bath last night.”
“Someone going to miss me already?”
“Just saying you’re technically clean.”
“I’m never clean when I’m with you,” she said with a smile.
Kallie glided from the bed and swayed her hips before disappearing into the bathroom.
She slid back the glass door of the walk-in shower and listened as Ash scurried out of bed. Her plan had worked. He’d taken her by surprise in the shower the night before and she wanted to turn the tables. Make him feel as trapped and helpless and blissful as she had felt bucking wildly against his hands. She fiddled with the nozzles until the water temperature was right, then slipped in just as Ash bounded in behind her.
“Did you think it was that easy to get away from me?” he asked.
“Who said anything about getting away from you?” Kallie asked.
He pinned her hips to the wall and Kallie smiled against his lips. She enjoyed his kisses. Soft, but commanding. And always full of want. She’d never been wanted by a man like this before. Never felt this beautiful in his arms. She threaded her arms around his neck as the hot water beat down against their bodies, and she started sinking to her knees.
But Ash held her by her waist and kept her from falling to her knees.
“Oh no you don’t,” he said.
“What?” Kallie asked innocently.
“I know what you’re about to do. And that’s not happening?”
She pouted, jutting her lower lip out as she fluttered her eyelashes.
“You don’t want to feel my lips against...?”
She cupped his cock and felt it lurch against her hand.
“While it sounds like a wonderful offer, I have something better in mind,” he said.
“Oh?” she asked. “And what’s that?”
And without a word, she watched Ash reach for the showerhead.
She furrowed her brow as his hands fiddled with the spout. It switched between different pressures, then finally settled onto a singular stream. Kallie’s eyes widened as Ash pressed deeply into her body, then sank down and tossed her leg over his shoulder.
“No. No, no, no. That’s going to be too—”
But the second that hot water bashed against her clit she cried out.
“Holy shit!”
“Oh yes,” Ash said. “This was what I missed. Watching that beautiful face of yours last night.”
“Shit. Ash. Shit. Yes. Fuck. Move it around. Oh my gosh.”
“That’s it. Give into it,” he said. “Let it wash over you.”
Her hands slammed into the tiles of the shower wall as her legs jittered. Never in her life had she felt anything like this. But then again, that seemed to be a common occurrence with Ash around. She felt her knees growing weak as the water battered her sensitive clit, and she found herself breathless as he moved the stream around.
“You should see your face, Kallie. Scrunched up. Red. Let those sounds go. Let me hear you.”
She felt Ash’s fingers pry her pussy folds open and she melted into his body.
“Holy fuck, Ash. What the fuck? It’s so good. So hot. So ... so ... Ash! Yes!”
Her head fell back into the shower wall as her pussy began to flutter. Her orgasm crashed over her in a surprise wave that took her knees out from underneath her. She plummeted to the floor and Ash caught her in his arms, but not before he snatched the showerhead back up and pressed it all the way into her clit.
“Oh my hell,” she said with a whimper.
Kallie ground into the showerhead, riding the spout through her endless orgasm. She felt Ash watching her. Watching every movement she made. She wanted to open her eyes and see him. Take in the way his eyes were devouring her. But she couldn't. It was like the water had sealed them shut and she didn’t want it to stop.
Ash moved the spout around and it crashed her into another orgasm as her legs began to quiver.
“So beautiful. My Pretty Kallie. This is how I want you,” Ash said.
She panted. Gasped. Heaved for air. She clamored away from the stream and heard the showerhead drop to the floor. It was too much. So good, and yet oh so very much. Her entire body was shaking as she felt a pair of arms wrap around her, and soon her cheek was pressed against something strong.
Something warm.
Something sturdy.
And then? She felt his fingers stroking her hair.
“Holy fuck,” she said, wheezing.
“Take your time,” Ash said. “I’m not going anywhere.”
The showerhead was dancing around the floor as she lay there in his arms. Her mind was spinning with electricity. Her body was numb as it floated in the air. She couldn't move. Couldn't speak. Part of her wanted to go back to sleep in his arms and the other part of her wanted to ride his cock off into the sunset.
She finally got her wits about her and stood on her wobbling feet. She and Ash took a shower together, washing each other down with soaps and suds. The two of them sat out on the private balcony wrapped in towels, allowing the sun to dry them as they sagged against each other.
“Would you like to venture out into town today?” Ash asked.
Kallie looked up into his eyes as she furrowed her brow.
; “Don’t you have to work at some point in time?”
“I have a few days off that I’ve saved up. I’d like to take them with you, if that’s all right.”
“I’m not complaining one bit,” she said. “I just don’t want you getting into trouble.”
“Only the good kind, right?” he asked.
She smiled up at him before Ash stood and offered his hand. She took it and followed him back into the villa where the two of them got dressed. Kallie slipped on a bikini and one of her sundresses, just in case they decided to take a dip in the ocean, then she grabbed her hat and slinked into her flip-flops. The worries of her life were quickly fading into the background, and as she grabbed her purse and headed for the door she found herself excited.
For the first time in years, she was truly excited about something.
Kallie spent the entire day with him. They walked around and got lunch at a burger joint at the edge of the island. They swam together in the ocean, wrapped in his arms as she bobbed with the waves. They did a little more surfing and Ash showed her a few more techniques, and she got to ride four waves into the shoreline. She enjoyed spending time with him. Being in his company. The two of them took a nap in the hammocks again after surfing the waves, and when she woke up, she planted a sweet kiss into Ash’s bare chest.
“Care for some dinner?” Kallie asked.
“I think I could use a bite after all that surfing,” he said.
“Is there anywhere on the island that serves a good pasta dish?”
“I thought you’d never ask.”
Kallie walked hand in hand with Ash into a restaurant tucked down an alleyway. There was live music and smoke fluttering around in the air, and Kallie had no idea what she’d gotten herself into. Ash led her to a table next to the band that was playing, and a waitress approached them, taking their drink orders before Ash ordered for her.
“The two of us are going to split your family fettuccine seafood pasta dish,” he said.
“Want any cheesy garlic bread with that?” the waitress asked.
“Oh yes, please,” Kallie said.
“That’s a lot of food. You sure you can handle all of it?”
Kallie grinned as she leaned back in her seat.
“Bring it,” she said.
The pasta dish was massive. Easily three pounds of it. The decadent butter and cheese sauce coated the noodles and it was piled high with all kinds of seafood. Shrimp and clams. Oysters and scallops. There were chunks of lobster and a few crab claws they could dig into. And the cheesy garlic bread?
