She shakes her head then looks at me with wide eyes. “Um, uh, oh my I guess…”
“There’s that stammering I love so much,” I say and turn away to grab the platter of steaks and walk away from her. Just as I get to the glass patio door I turn around and catch her with her head tilted and her face goes red.
She was checking out my ass!
Alexis
I pace back and forth in the kitchen and try my best to calm my crazy libido. Max has me hot and flustered. He hasn’t touched me not once since he got here. Not a hello hug or anything. It’s driving me crazy.
I see Max and Marcos talking and grab us three more beers from the fridge and head out. A long drink of mine I take to steady myself. I set their drinks down and Max gives me a smile. “Hey, babe, can you find me something I can turn the steaks with?”
I turn around and go right back inside and catch the men laughing and have no idea why. I go back outside with a large fork and they abruptly stop laughing. “What’s so funny?” I ask.
“Your man is,” Marcos says.
I frown. “You know better than to call him that, Marcos.” I take a seat and give him a glare.
“I don’t mind being called that,” Max says. “I rather like it.”
Marcos’s phone rings and he looks at the screen. “It’s our boss. I’ll take this inside.”
I watch him walk away then I look at Max. He turns and comes to sit next to me. “So, anyway, Marcos will take you to your shoot tomorrow, so give me your keys and find the title to that thing. I’ll take it tomorrow and you’ll have a new car by the time you get back home.”
“I can only spend about five thousand, so don’t go crazy. Get whatever you can for the van and tell the man I have five thousand in cash and see what you can come up with.”
“Will do, princess.” Max sits back and looks out as the sun sets. “I watched the sun set three times when I was lost. Each time I thought of you. I thought how I had to hang on, so I could watch at least one more of them with you. It kept me going through the long nights.”
Tears automatically fill my eyes and I take his hand in mine and hold it to my heart. A few spill over my cheeks and I let them as I remember the pain I felt when I thought him dead. To be sitting here with him is a miracle. “I know I don’t tell you often enough, but I do love you, Max.”
His eyes glisten with tears. “I know you do, Lexi. I love you so much.”
I draw his hand up to my lips and kiss the palm of his hand. He takes in a sharp breath and I say without thinking, “Tell you you’ll spend the night with me.”
“I’ll do whatever it is you want, you should know that by now,” he says and pulls our hands to his lips and leaves a kiss on top of mine.
What have I started?
Max
I’m shaking, I’m so happy. Lexi asked me to stay the night with her and told me she loved me. She keeps those words to herself more often than not. I have no idea if she’ll let me make love to her, but I don’t care if all I get to do is hold her through the night.
To maintain my composure I excused myself and went to the bathroom so she wouldn’t see just how affected I am by her. She gets so freaked out with emotion and passion. A few deep breaths and I go back out to find Marcos back out on the patio with her. His eyes light up as I walk out. “So, Lexi tells me we’re having you as an overnight guest, Max.”
I smile. “You cool with that?”
He nods. “She’s paying half the rent, she can have guests if she wants.”
Lexi smiles shyly at me. “Our boss saw a picture of you and would like to talk to you about doing some modeling. She’d like to do a spread with all three of us in it for some yacht company. The shoot will be in three days. No shirts required.”
I sit and pick up my beer and take a long drink.
A model?
“The three of us?” I ask. Trying to wrap my head around this.
Marcos nods. “It’s easy money, man.”
“I’m not in need of money,” I say and look at Lexi. “I’ll do it if you want me to though.”
“No, don’t do it for me,” she says as she shakes her head. “Do it because you want to or don’t do it at all.”
“You know what, I will do it, and the money I make from it, I’ll donate to the children’s home. Plus I’ll get to be around you all day. Win, win, right?”
A smile lights up her face. “Okay, go call her back and tell her the good news.”
Marcos jumps up and squeals. “This is going to be so much fun, and more money!”
I sit next to her and put my hand on her thigh. “So I get to take pictures with you all scantily clad, huh?”
“I’m afraid so,” she frowns. “I need a tan too, so I’ll have to lay out some before then.”
“My pool is always available, so we can get our tans on there, if you like.” I run my hand down her leg and sparks shoot through me.
“Max, this doesn’t mean we’re together, okay?”
“Sure, I mean whatever, babe. I enjoy being around you, who says we have to make a big deal about it, right?”
She nods. “Okay, so are the steaks done? Can we eat now?”
I nod and find myself jumping for joy on the inside and it’s hard to maintain a calm exterior, but I know I have to or she’ll run again.
Alexis
My bedroom is awesome. Marcos has the best taste in absolutely everything. I’ve put on Max’s T-shirt I haven’t slept in since I went to Logan’s. He’s in the bathroom and I’m so nervous I’m shaking and trying so hard to stop. I'm not sure about this at all, but I blurted out the invitation and it seemed rude to take it back, so here I am stuck with the hottest guy I’ve ever seen.
Even I know that didn’t make any sense!
“Hey, baby,” Max says as he comes into my bedroom, wearing only his tight, black briefs. He looks like a Greek God. Although I doubt they wore those things. “You ready to snuggle?”
Snuggle? That’s it?
“If you are,” I say and finally get my body to stop shaking. I take in a deep breath as he climbs under the blanket and his arm goes over me as I lay on my side, looking at him. “Max?”
“Yes, princess?”
“Maybe we can take things slow, huh?”
“Whatever you want.” His hand runs over my arm, leaving a tingle in its path.
“Last time was crazy. I don’t suppose you brought any protection?” I say and realize I just asked him to make love to me without even thinking about it.
He shakes his head. “I got rid of it all. I’m not thinking about being with anyone but you, and with you I don’t need it.”
“But,” I say then his finger touches my lips.
“Shh, Lexi, it’s all going to be alright. I promise you,” he says then his soft lips touch mine and my arms wrap around him, pulling him closer to me. Warmth flows through me as he slips his tongue through my lips. He tastes like mint and my tongue dances around his.
Tiny currents run on my skin where he caresses my back. I run my fingers through his shoulder length waves and groan at how silky they are. My groan makes him groan and he gently pushes me to my back and slides his hand under the T-shirt. He trails it slowly up my stomach, making it clench up. He goes until he finds a breast and kneads it softly.
Hi kiss is sending me to that place it always does, and I think only about him and how good he makes me feel. Only Max can take me to this place, so close to Heaven. I run my hands up and down his muscled back. His leg runs between mine, barely touching the place in between them that’s beginning to ache for him.
Pulling his mouth from mine, he trails his tongue down my neck until he settles just behind my ear and kisses, then nips at my skin. Goose pimples cover me in an instant. “Oh, Max, I love you.”
Hot lips touch my ear and warm breath flows over it. “I love you too, Lexi.”
His hands slide under my shirt and he pulls it over my head and looks down at my breasts, running his hands over them. H
is dark green eyes twinkle in the dim light. He is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. And he wants to be mine and mine alone.
I trail my fingers along the deep lines of his chiseled stomach. It quivers with my touch and I look up to find him biting his lip. This man wants me so badly and I find it hard to think of spending another night without him. I wiggle my finger at him as I want his lips on mine again and am growing impatient to have him inside where I’m aching to feel him.
He complies and kisses me again as he grinds his massive erection against me. Heat fills me and I kiss him hard. Then pull away from him. “Turn over, I want to do something to you,” I say.
With a smile he moves off me and lies back on the large bed. “I’m yours to do with as you like, princess.”
Sliding my hands over his stomach, I hook my thumbs on the sides of his underwear, taking them completely off. Then I push his legs further apart and run my tongue up the inside of one of his legs. His dick is long and hard and I want to know what it tastes like. My eyes meet his and his are dark with desire. “You don’t have to do this, Lexi.”
“I want to,” I say and look at him as I slide his cock into my mouth. His eyes close and he groans as his fists clutch the sheet.
I move my mouth up the crazily soft skin and back down until the tip hits the back of my throat. I stifle a gag then pull up again. The hardness along with the silky smoothness is an irresistible combination. I find I want more and more of it. With a gentle suck I pull at it and run my hand along it as I pull it in and out of my mouth. “God damn it, Lexi, you’re so fucking good at this!”
His praise makes me happy and I move faster and suck harder as I pull it into my mouth then let it slide nearly out before I suck at it again. With my free hand I touch his balls and find them to be equally as enticing. As I move my hand up and down his rock hard dick, I release it from my mouth to suck on his huge balls which are filled, making them tight.
His hands wrap in my hair and he pulls me up and slides his dick back in my mouth where I go crazy on it, trying my best to get him to come. He moves my head to the rhythm he likes as I suck at it and make sure it’s wet. He stiffens and I lick the tip, making him explode in my mouth. I surprise myself by drinking it down and find it tastes good. He moans loudly. “Fuck me, Lexi that was so fucking good!”
I smile and wipe my mouth with the back of my hand. “Not bad for my first time.”
“So much better than not bad, girl.” He sits up and makes me lie back. “Your turn.”
I giggle with excitement. My panties he takes off and then his eyes meet mine as he puts his lips on the magic spot only he can manage to find so well. I suck in my breath and close my eyes as he taps his hot, wet tongue against my very swollen clit. “Max!” I say as I exhale and arch up to him.
He grabs both my butt cheeks and kisses me deep, running his tongue up and down my folds and then into my vagina and I am about to come undone. My body is shaking and my hands tangle in his hair, holding him to me. “Fuck that feels good.”
He moans and that does it. I shatter and moan as I pulse inside. He pulls his mouth away and climbs my body. His mouth lands on my neck and he bites down hard as he thrusts his miraculously re-hardened dick into me, and I’m still throbbing as he sends me into another orgasm.
I scream as I come hard and my legs shake. “Oh, God!”
He pounds me into the bed and I keep coming. I’m wet as I’ve ever been and he slides in and out as I writhe beneath him. My stomach can’t stop clenching and I can barely breathe. Tears flow down my cheeks with how fantastic this feels. I never want it to end.
Slowly the pulsing begins to fade and my tears dry up. Max pulls out and grabs me, turning me over. He pulls me to my knees then pushes my shoulders until only my ass is in the air, then he pounds into me again and I find I’m coming again. I scream into the mattress with every slam of his monster hard dick into me. Each one sends my body into a fit of quivers and he’s in so deep I feel he’s a part of me. “Come for me, baby, come hard for me,” he says through gritted teeth.
I can’t figure how I could come any harder, then he slaps my ass hard with the next five strokes and I break into another full on orgasm and it’s harder than the others. “Fuck me!” I scream into the mattress.
Max stops and stiffens then he screams, “Oh, God!” His body shudders and I feel heat flowing into me. My walls pulse around him, pulling every drop from him. Finally I feel no more pulses from me or him and he pulls out and rubs my ass gently, making me drop to the bed.
I lie on my stomach physically exhausted. He lies next to me and kisses my head as he puts his arm around me. “Sleep, princess, I love you.”
“I love you,” I mumble then pass out.
Max
I lie awake and gaze at Lexi as she sleeps like a woman who’s just been well fucked should. She’s completely out and makes these tiny snores every so often. I find it adorable and hope she decides we can spend many more nights together.
I hold her in my arms, so hopefully if she does do something crazy like try to run off on me again, I’ll feel her and as long as I can kiss her, I can change her mind. I pray her fleeing days are over, because there’s just no way she’d never want to do what we just did again. That was even more mind blowing than at the basketball game. It just keeps getting better with this girl.
My head is spinning with how long I’ve waited to hold her all night long. Tomorrow I’m going to buy her the best car I can find. I don’t care what she says, I’m doing it and she can get used to getting spoiled. With her roomie on my side, maybe between the two of us, she’ll stop her nonsense of how dangerous we are for each other.

The photo shoot went well and Marcos went cuckoo over how much money he made. Max and I have spent every night together either at his mansion or my apartment. He bought me an amazing Mercedes, even though I protested highly. I do love the ding dang thing though so I forgave him for buying it for me.
Although I have no desire to run from Max, I still feel like what we have is too much. Like it’s all too good to be true, and something has to go wrong. Life just isn’t this good. There’s no way we get a happy ending when no one else does. We’re on our way to give Max’s modeling money to the children’s home he grew up in down in South Texas. It’s desolate out here.
He holds my hand as we drive along for miles into the country. I turn my head and look at him with his expensive sunglasses on and looking so damn sexy it’s almost inhuman. “How much farther?”
“Really, Lexi?” he asks as he looks at me and frowns. “Just like a little kid.”
“Well, I have to pee and I haven’t seen a town in hours,” I whine.
“We just went through one,” he says. “But if you were blinking then you may have missed it.”
“I do tend to blink,” I say and look out the window at more nothingness. “What a horrible place to grow up.”
“It wasn’t so bad. It could’ve been much worse if my mother had kept me with her.”
Pain stabs my heart at Max’s poor childhood. I run my thumb over his knuckles. “You’re right. I’ll shut up and quit complaining.”
“Anyway you can pee soon, princess. We’re here,” he says as we pull into a well-hidden community in the middle of nowhere.
He pulls up to a large home and gets out and comes to open my door. I have been instructed never and I mean never to open my own door. So I wait like a good little girl for him. As he opens it I say, “So this is it, the boyhood home, of Max Lane?”
“No, this is the boyhood home of, Randy Lawton.” He takes my hand and leads me up a walk towards a green painted front door. “This was the house I grew up in.”
He’s never told me his real name. I put my arm around his waist and hug him. “You had a cute name.”
“It was okay, but she could’ve found me and I didn’t want that. A change was necessary.”
An older woman opens the door and has a baby in her arms. “Oh, R
andy, how nice it is to see you again.”
Max gestures to me. “This is Lexi, the love of my life and Lexi this is my mom, Lois.”
“It’s nice to meet you, Lois,” I say.
“You too, darlin’ hey how about you hold this little girl for me so I can hug my son?” she asks as she places the baby in my arms and wraps her arms around Max’s neck.
A bit flabbergasted as I’ve never held a baby before that I can remember, I hold the small thing tightly and she looks up at me and grabs my chin. “Well, hello,” I say and she coos at me and it’s the most adorable sound I’ve ever heard. “Coo to you too, you precious thing.”
Her tiny eyes are bright blue and her thin hair is blonde and I wonder who would give this beautiful baby up. I look up at Max’s foster mom and see she has tears in her eyes as Max has handed her the check for a massive amount of money. “Oh, I can’t believe this. You do so much for this place already, Randy.”
“And I’ll keep doing it until all the money runs out, which if my investments are as good as I think they are, will be never,” Max says with a laugh. He looks at me and holds out his hands. “May I, Lex?”
In an awkward way I hold the baby out to him and he frowns at me as he takes her the right way. “Sorry, I’ve never handled a baby before.”
Max and Lois stare at me like I’ve said something completely crazy. “Well, that’s just nuts,” Lois says. “Come on in here and let’s visit a spell and you can learn how to handle a baby, dear girl.”
Max looks at the baby and holds her up, making her giggle like crazy at him. “Who’s the pretty girl?” he says and she laughs. “You’re the pretty girl.” He pulls her into a sweet hug and kisses the top of her tiny head and I get all melty inside.
