  I grabbed for something to cover what I considered my shame. I turned to see that it wasn’t who I thought it was. It wasn’t Jackson or Drake. It was Pina and he wasn’t doing it in a lecherous way.

  “Mr. Sumner requested that I come here and give you a drink. This is my own concoction. I saw something beautiful and I had to admire it. You have a beautiful body and there’s no reason for you to hide it. Feel comfortable walking around naked. Don’t tell Mr. Sumner, but I do it all the time at the crack of dawn. It makes me feel in touch with nature,” Pina said as he came forward with a drink of choice on a tray. He was balancing it like it was second nature.

  Chapter 10

  I took one sip and I smiled knowing that this drink had the ability to transport me to a different way of thinking. This was island time. It was slow almost a snail-like pace that I found to my liking. I couldn’t say anything to Pina. I was trying to gather my thoughts. I didn’t want to be defensive. He was oblivious to how westerners had a unique understanding of private space.

  “I have to say that your effort has gone past any of my expectations. This drink is delicious, but I can already feel it going to my head. I’m a little lightheaded and I’m sure that there is a bit more than just a small amount of liquor in this. If I’m not careful, I could be swinging from the chandelier doing something that is unbecoming of a lady,” I said not even bothering to worry about the perception that I was going to put across.

  “This is island living at its best. Don’t let the trappings of society hold you back from enjoying this. This place is an oasis and one that you should indulge in every conceivable way. Give yourself license to let go. Once you do that, then you’ll realize that you’ve been missing out all of this time. This place should not be used just to get away from it all. It should be a way of living. I work very hard for Mr. Sumner, but I always leave enough time at the first of the day and at the last of the day to give thanks for everything that I have,” Pina said obviously in touch with his roots and not willing to let a moment go by.

  “If you’re not careful, you’re going to convince me that running away from life is a good idea. This could be my new reality if only I give it a chance. I get this feeling like I would get bored of being pampered. It’s also possible that I could get quite comfortable and never want to leave,” I said with my head swimming and my body getting more comfortable.

  “If you would excuse me, I would like to get back to the kitchen to see what Mr. Sumner has put his finger into. He’s a bit of a kid underneath it all. He likes to taste test just about everything that I make. I sometimes find it obtrusive that he’s leaning over my shoulder, but it also makes me feel like what I’m doing is the right thing. I send most of my money to my family. They think that I work exceptionally hard to earn that, but what they don’t know doesn’t hurt them. I count myself as one of the lucky ones. I could be on a fishing boat or working in a factory. My brother and I are grateful for Mr. Sumner, I wonder how much he knows of our gratitude,” Pina said.

  “You make me proud for giving you employment, Pina. You and your brother are a packaged deal and I wouldn’t have it any other way. The both of you continually outdo yourself. That kind of work ethic is something that is missing from society. It’s obvious that you both love what you do and it shows in how you take your time to make everything just right. I don’t need your gratitude. Your friendship and the hard work that you put out is more than enough. You have given me as much as I have given you. I find myself lucky that I have the both of you to take care of this place in my absence. I have plans to come here more often, but sometimes life gets in the way. I know what you are going to say and you’re speaking to the choir,” Drake said as he stood there wearing a towel around his waist.

  “I see that you have been snooping around again. I was hoping that I could surprise you. You have never been very good at accepting surprises. I think that I can come up with something that you don’t know about on the fly. Enjoy yourselves and the feast will be ready at midnight. We’re going to have a fire and my brother and I are going to put on a show like you have never seen before. We pride ourselves on learning different things and we strive to be a two-man show. Hold your applause until we finish. It’s possible that we will make a mistake and I hope that you don’t judge us harshly for that. The kitchen calls my name,” Pina said as he walked past and had a brief exchange without words with Drake.

  “Give me a few minutes and I promise that the wait will be worth it. I saw this in the store and I thought that it was wishful thinking that it was going to fit. It not only fit, but it looked like it was made for my body. There’s not much to it, but I think that you’ll be pleasantly taken off your game. I could change in front of you. I’m not going to do that. Let me change in peace or I might have to reconsider my selection,” I said letting him know that his patience would not go unrewarded.

  “I was going to show you my little secret, but I think that we can wait to do that together. I’ll go down to the beach and make sure that everything is set up. This is what I call paradise. There isn’t the unnecessary feeling of people trampling over each other. Those that go to resorts have to contend with other people. I don’t know about you, but I have always believed that people suck in general. There are exceptions to that rule and you are definitely one of them. You are who you are and you don’t pretend to be anything other than that. That is the reason why I have been drawn to you. There is nothing to make me believe that you can be duplicitous,” Drake said as he stood there and waited to see if I was going to let him get a brief peak.

  “You may seem pompous and insincere, but to me, the vulnerability that you’ve shown by talking about your family gives me insight into you. You’re probably afraid that if you show too much that I will run and never look back. You’re human and we all have flaws that we are not particularly proud of. Nobody is perfect. If somebody says that they are then they are probably lying to you or themselves or maybe both. Now, give me some room and don’t loiter like one of those guys that sit at a booth and push quarters into the slot like a jukebox to watch a girl get naked,” I said looking at him. I was being quite serious and also poking fun at the same time.

  “It’s interesting that you would go there of all places. You don’t take me for the kind of girl that would frequent those kinds of places. I guess you never know about anybody until you walk a few miles in their shoes. It would appear that we have a lot more to talk about than I thought we did. You have definitely given me a lot more than mundane everyday topics to consider. This is where we expose ourselves in more ways than one,” Drake said as he turned and dropped the towel so that I could see his ass cheeks. The way that floss like material disappeared between them was something that had me staring.

  He had given me a rear view, but I was more interested in what was going on up front. He disappeared down the path. I went to the doorway to look back the way that I came to make sure that I wasn’t going to have any more unwanted visitors. I dropped my blouse. Standing in the nude and not caring who saw me.

  I put both hands on my waist and I looked at myself from every angle. I reached into my bag to pull out this tiny white bikini. It was sheer and getting it wet was only going to make Jackson and the rest of the guys stand at attention. I was a willful child. My parents were determined to keep me from doing anything that was going to bring an end to my future. I had not experienced my first kiss until I was 20. After that, I made up for lost time and soon there was no man that was immune to my seductive charms.

  The investment of buying this bikini had maximized my appeal to the opposite sex. Any fear that I had vanished and with it an increased heart rate that had me wondering if I was courageous enough to step outside this room.

  I tentatively took a few steps toward the door and then I walked out to hear the birds singing. The first thing that met my attention was the smell of something delicious assaulting my nostrils. There was another drink of the same kind that I had just had sitting on the rail
ing. The wood was teak and had a glistening shine like somebody had purposely put a coat of something to give it that luster.

  I decided that it was left for me. With each sip, my feeling of exposure began to become less of a problem. I felt like I was shedding my skin. I stood with my back arched, closing my eyes and letting the sun remind me that I was in paradise for a reason. There was no point in letting it go to waste. This was the perfect disguise to hide the fact that I was shy. I’d been through a lot and it felt good to step outside and do something that was going to make me happy.

  I followed the aroma. I passed by the kitchen only to have Pina close the door in my face to prevent me from learning what was going to be on the menu tonight. I turned and I could still smell something delicious coming from the beach. I followed that scent until I saw Drake lying there in that banana hammock.

  He had those same glasses on. There was a part of me that wanted to snatch it off his face and run around as he chased me playfully to get it back. I needed to feel his touch and I wasn’t sure how long it would take before I cast aside any of my doubts. He was filling out that thong in just the right way. It would’ve been so damn easy to put my hand out. My fingers were literally shaking and then I spied the food on the table. There were all sorts of little appetizers including what looked like pigs in a blanket, but it tasted far better than that. There were spices that had come from the Philippine culture. I didn’t want to make a pig out of myself, but I needed to try just about everything to say that I did.

  “I told him not to go to any trouble, but he never listens. I haven’t seen Jackson or Rowan. I do wonder where they have gotten off to. I didn’t mean anything by that. It doesn’t matter to me if they are talking or doing something more than that. I don’t dictate the brother’s love lives. They are free to come and go whenever they want. This is their home. I have seen a few bevy of beauties come here at their request. Some are men and some are women, but they always leave here feeling refreshed and learning something new about themselves,” Drake said as he had lowered his glasses and was staring at me.

  “Why don’t you take a picture it will last longer?” I purposely ran into the water and came back out with that material showing off more of my body than I probably would’ve been comfortable doing in other circumstances.

  “You keep teasing me like that and I won’t be responsible for how I conduct myself. I brought you here because I wanted to give you a reason to trust me. I’m sure on some level you believe that I only want the money. I’m not going to lie and say that the money hasn’t been on my mind. I have a certain lifestyle and I don’t want that to go away. I’ve already told you that I can make it worth your while. You have agreed, but I still feel that you are reluctant. It pains me to think that you think so little of me,” Drake said as I went and got another drink from the open bar.

  “We’ve known each other for quite some time, but I really don’t have any intimate knowledge about you. We have challenged each other and that has been an interesting respite from my day. You’ve been that shining beacon of hope the leaves me with a smile on my face,” I said as I wanted to extend the intimacy between the two of us.

  Chapter 11

  He didn’t say much after that and it seemed that he had a lot of thinking to do. I wanted to reach out to him, but it felt that it was too soon to make that kind of overture. We had been playing a game and now that game had turned into something more serious. His siblings would never accept me. It didn’t matter if I came with a pedigree or royal bloodline. They would still want to discredit me so that they could get that kind of fortune.

  It was nice to get away from the pressure of the day. I had a feeling that he was about to put me into a position where I wasn’t going to feel comfortable. It was all weighing heavily on my mind and paradise had slowly disengaged me from those thoughts. They were still there lingering in the corners of my mind, but I had far better things to occupy my time.

  I turned slightly and no more than a few inches away was Drake’s body. I couldn’t stop staring. There was a shift in that very revealing thong. It started to fill out and I heard a telltale moan escape his lips. His hips jumpstarted my heart with a thrust that gave me a better insight into what it would be like to be with him. Tearing down those walls of mistrust had become a necessity to make this work between the two of us.

  He had fallen asleep and whatever was going on inside his mind was more x-rated than PG. There was something of a giddy thrill to witness him lose his inhibitions if only in his dreams. He was not shy and what we had done already had pushed the envelope. I knew that I was risking falling into his bed. Going to his family estate was going to put me underneath the microscope where his siblings would tear apart everything I said.

  I knew that there were other reasons for him to take us to paradise. This was the time to get ready for the battle ahead. It was as if we were warriors practicing the art of combat but in an entirely different way than what you would see back in the Victorian days. There was no necessity for slapping a man across the face to challenge him to a duel. Laws had changed and a more civilized approach became normal. There were still those that considered violence the answer. His siblings were a mystery. I really didn’t know them to understand how far they would go to exact their piece of the pie.

  “Michelle… I love how you do that,” Drake said not really surprising me by his outburst. I saw that the effect of having me at his mercy in his dreams. Thoughts of me had made that piece of his anatomy become strong and virile.

  I moved a little closer touching his bare flesh and knowing that I was in the perfect positioned to play with his mind a little. Piercing that membrane between reality and fantasy took a careful study and a patience that I wasn’t really known for. I trailed my fingers down over his bronzed body. I purposely kept away from the object of my fascination. It was like I was frozen in time. I was afraid that I would break the spell that he was under by going too far.

  I carefully straddled his waist with both of my knees on either side of him. I put pressure on my hands on his chest and still, he did not rouse from his slumber. I found myself looking at him and then concentrating on the growing dilemma between his legs. I could easily rectify the problem and alleviate him of that fantasy.

  “I want you to sit on me. I want you to take it all. I want you to make me a recipient of your sweet loving. Please, I don’t want to wait any longer and we have come too far to turn back now. I am your prisoner. I’m at your mercy. I hope that you take that into consideration,” Drake said as I slid the material of his thong down over the bulging presence.

  It had swelled to a huge proportion inside the skimpy underwear. How it was able to contain such girth and length was beyond me. It tried in vain to rip free of the confines, but the material stayed resilient.

  I looked around to see if what I was doing was being witnessed by others. I was worried that somebody would take offense. I remembered that the only people that were here were his two charges and Jackson. It gave me this sense of freedom to explore to my heart’s content. I wasn’t sure how far I was going to go, but this was an opportunity that I just couldn’t let slip away.

  I moved to get a closer look at the bulbous frame of his manhood. The outline of it was this magnificent idea of what a man should possess. Most would say that it was not about the size, but sometimes more was better. That’s the reason why I was so close to jumping Jackson’s bones and he knew it. I had to first contend with the notion that I was using Drake as a substitute for the one that I really wanted. I sat there and pondered that for a moment. It came to me that Drake was in a league all of his own. There was nobody quite like him. It was that unique combination of rough and sophistication that had me hanging on his every word.

  I reached with shaky fingers to touch the material to see it jerk in response. I pulled away like my finger was on fire. I returned to what I was doing, grasping onto the waistband and pulling it down slowly to reveal the present that was hidden within. It wa
s already showing its excitement by drooling a small offering of what was to come. I touched it and pulled it back in a long string that stretched until it finally broke. It was that close to touching my lips.

  I felt like our breathing was synchronized. I counted the beads of sweat that covered his body and then traced them with my fingers like I was perfecting the art of finger painting. I saw him stir from his slumber, but he did not open his eyes. Having him come into my life had turned my world upside down in a good way. I wondered if he felt the same way that I felt. Was this a prelude for a declaration of love or was I just deluding myself into thinking that was possible?

  I pulled the material of my bikini to the side to show the soaking wet slit waiting for his projectile of love. I knew that eventually, I would be holding him in my iron walls. I wasn’t sure if that day was going to be today.

  I had half of him uncovered and I could still see the heavy formation of his balls looking like the size of grapefruits. They were a plum size and completely full to overflowing with the sticky texture of his cream. I moved forward a little at a time and left an imprint of my juices collecting in a sheen along his length. I circled my clit with the head. I was tempted to drop my weight and let him slide along those slippery walls.

  I thought that I could get away with just the tip, but I knew that was only tempting fate a little bit too far. I was using whatever willpower that I had and still it didn’t seem like it was going to be enough. I felt the enveloping hunger for something to take up that empty space between my legs.
