Barely able to breathe from wanting him, she pulled him on top of her on the queen sized berth. “I really thought I had more self-restraint, but I don't. Make love to me, Sebastian."
"A quickie before we leave?"
"Whatever you want to call it, I need you."
He rose and unzipped his shorts.
Her eyes followed each movement, fascinated by the sight of his body being revealed a little at a time. When he was naked, he reached for her beach shorts and tugged them off, exposing her almost bare pussy. His fingertip followed the thin line of pubic hair to her erect clit.
"Are you wet?” His voice was husky, his gaze intense.
"See for yourself.” She parted her legs.
When he turned toward the door, she propped on her elbows, surprised. “Where are you going?"
The door shut with a simple click of a lock. “I hate interruptions."
Alexa's loved the metallic sound of guaranteed privacy.
Turning back toward her, his cock jutted from his body, hard and ready. He reached into the drawer and pulled out a condom. “Are we wasting time on foreplay or getting down to business?” He held the foil wrapped package up for her.
Spreading her legs again, she laid down. “No need for warm up. I'm there."
With the condom in place, Sebi rejoined her on the bed. His fingers slipped through her dripping wet folds. He hoisted her hips against his so her legs wrapped his waist. Desire pooled in his dark eyes.
"Ready?"
Drawing his strong arms toward her, she nodded.
The tip of his cock rested against her entry.
"Stop messing around. I want you."
He thrust into her, settling into a rapid-fire rhythm meant to ignite an intense orgasm.
Alexa wouldn't have it any other way at the moment. She put her feet on his shoulders, changing the angle of penetration. “Don't slow down. I love being fucked hard and furious."
Sebi's washboard stomach glistened as he rocked his hips. “You must be close. You're clenching on me. I can hardly move."
"I am and it feels fantastic.” She gripped his corded forearms, digging her nails into his skin. “Fuck me, Sebi. Here I come. Don't stop. Hard!” Her body became rigid, poised on the precipice of orgasm, then bucked several times.
He held her hips, thrusting through the pleasure, making her feel every second of it a thousand times stronger than if he'd stopped.
Her head thrashed from side to side, and she shrieked unidentifiable words and sounds. A long moment later, her body calmed, her eyes regained focus. A wicked smile lifted the corners of her mouth. “Finish it. You feel amazing."
"Flip over, let me see your wet pussy before I fuck it some more."
Alexa got on her hands and knees. Glancing over her shoulder at him, she couldn't resist a tease. “I'm waiting."
Sebi kissed her butt cheeks while running his fingers through her crease. “Later I'm going to have a taste of your delicious ass."
She wiggled her hips. “Count on it."
He pushed his cock back inside her and sighed. “Okay, babe, let's make me come."
She rocked backward, meeting his thrusts until his grunting breaths indicated he was there.
He shouted and slapped her ass hard. “Alexa! God, yes!” With one final push forward, his body stilled and his cock pulsed with release.
She lay in his arms afterward, wondering what had gotten into her. She'd been horny, but Sebi's touch ignited a firestorm of lust unlike any previous lover had. Her fingers traced aimless patterns on his stomach while she attempted to sort out her uncharacteristic behavior.
"We might not pull away from the dock at this rate.” His voice sounded distant, dreamy. Utterly relaxed.
"This is nice, just being here with you this way."
He raised her chin with a knuckle and then kissed her. “It is. It's been so long since I've unwound with a woman."
"Really? I wouldn't think you'd have trouble getting dates.” Her fingers found the tight little curls that dotted his chest.
His arm tightened around her shoulder. “Finding women to date isn't usually a problem. You know I'm only at Greggerson until the new reporting system is fully functional."
Her heart sank. “No, actually I didn't know that. We'd seen each other around and I knew you were a consultant, but Greggerson has them coming out its ears.” Bracing on her hand, she looked at his face. Eyes closed, he seemed completely at ease. A breath of sadness washed over Alexa. She really wanted to get to know Sebi; something special was happening between them.
"How long will you be here?"
He peeked at her with one eye. “A few months—maybe until Thanksgiving.” A frown creased his brow when he opened both eyes. “What?"
She couldn't verbalize the cacophony of emotions running through her. It was too soon to say she was falling for Sebastian. She had never been one to sleep around, despite her lusty fantasies and what happened at the office earlier in the week. But she did like being in his arms. His strength, his passion, his intelligence.
"Are you going to answer?” His gaze became more intent.
"You're always moving so you don't date often?” She lay down again so he wouldn't see her expression. Dreading the answer, she waited.
"I don't date often because I'm picky. I like intelligent, attractive women. Adventurous spirits make me happy. Self-reliant women, who have goals and don't need me to take care of them, except where it matters, appeal to me. You know? I'm looking for a woman to love and support emotionally and do things for her because it makes her happy. Not because I have to. I don't like needy women. I want a partner in life, not a financial responsibility."
Her heart thumped with joy. She was looking for the same qualities in a man.
"And I do move around quite a bit so I'm careful not to get involved in relationships that may end because it's time to leave."
"Wouldn't you work things out, find a job in the same city, if you fell in love?"
He kissed her forehead. “I would, in a heartbeat, if I found the right woman."
"For the record ... I hate needy men."
His body shook her when he laughed. “I'm not too needy."
He rolled her onto her back, the beauty of his smile making her heart skip a beat.
"But I have needs.” He nibbled her lips. “Sometimes insatiable needs."
Her treacherous body was already turning to butter. “Those are needs I appreciate."
He kissed her gently. “You're really something, you know? Very exciting."
"Every woman wants to hear that. But I'm a little embarrassed about how attracted I am to you.” Her temperature crept higher, covering her skin in a rosy blush. “I can't seem to keep my hands off you.” He gave her another one of his brilliant smiles that started a pleasant throb in her chest.
"I don't mind in the least.” He kissed her cheek. “And it doesn't take rocket science to notice you're a wonderful person.” He broke into a soft chuckle.
"Pick on the aerospace engineer. Go ahead, you're a geek too."
His eyebrow raised in mock anger. “Geek? I'm the God of Geeks. I love technology and all things electronic and complex. I live to discuss data modeling systems and ways to improve their efficiencies. Maybe that's why I don't date often. I get off on my work so much, I don't need a woman to satisfy me."
Alexa broke into hysterical laughter. “Yeah, like I believe that."
He nuzzled her neck, sending shivers of delight coursing through her. “Would you like to take the boat out or spend the day right here? Either is fine with me."
"I'd really like to go for a ride, spend the day on the water.” She giggled again. “Or at least spend what's left of it."
Sebi glanced at the clock. “There's plenty of daylight left and like I said, lots of action after the sun goes down.” He winked.
The after dark activities intrigued her, but she didn't want to spoil the surprise by asking for details. “Then let's get this show on the roa
d."
He stopped her from getting up. “One thing."
"Yes?"
"I hope you brought your bikini or something suitably skimpy to wear."
She shrugged. “I thought you were kidding. I brought long pants and a sweater."
He looked crestfallen. “Seriously? Haven't you ever been boating?"
"Kidding! I brought my ittiest, bittiest bikini.” She laughed at his relieved expression.
"Good. Get changed while I get us underway.” Sebi leaned in for a quick kiss. After a light slap on her derriere, he left the stateroom.

CHAPTER FOUR
Like a proud parent, Sebi took Alexa on a grand tour of Rockford Lake. He pointed out all the big money homes and talked about their owners. He slowed through the narrows and pointed out great fishing spots. With the wind gently caressing her skin, Alexa enjoyed every second of his enthusiasm and skill as a captain. She hadn't been this relaxed in ages.
After swinging to the leeward side of an island, Sebastian dropped anchor and turned off the engines.
"I thought we'd swim for awhile. This is a favorite hangout for partying. Once one of us shows up, the rest will come."
"Kind of like seagulls on a pizza?"
He laughed. “Yeah, but friendlier. Do you want to swim? I guess I didn't even ask if you like to."
"I love swimming, and I'm ready to cool off.” She twined her fingers behind her head and reached up to stretch. “The sun is making me sleepy."
"Can't have that! Come on. Let's get our towels and go for a dip."
Sebi peeled off his clothes and handed her a towel.
"Sexy swim pants, Sebi.” She ran her fingers over the formfitting Diesel trunks that accentuated his butt and did little to conceal his manhood. The square-cut, short legs showcased his muscular thighs. “I like this suit a lot better than those bulky ones that hang to your knees and look like sweatpants."
Sebi released a hearty laugh. “Do I look like the kind of man who'd wear something like that?"
"Not exactly, but you never know."
"I'd swim naked before I wore a suit like that."
A smirk lifted the corner of her mouth. “I like the sound of that."
"Skinny dipping?"
She nodded. “Maybe when the sun goes down?"
"We won't need to wait that long. Trust me.” Taking her hand, he helped her onto the swim platform. “Ready?"
She nodded. Holding hands, they jumped into the lake. The water grew cooler as they sank deeper and she swam back to the surface before touching bottom. After breaking the water's surface again, she floated onto her back.
He treaded water next to her.
"This feels so good. The lake is perfect. The day is perfect.” She swished the water with her hands to keep afloat.
"It's a little cold in the lower depths, but the first few feet are like bathwater. Come on, let's swim to the island. I have something to show you."
Sebi helped her scramble over the rocky shoreline and onto solid ground. “This used to be my favorite haunt when I was younger. I'd take my father's fishing boat and come over here for the weekend.” He led her to a flatter area, shaded on one side by trees, and exposed to the eastern side of the lake on the other. A campfire ring still contained ash and charred wood.
"I'd pitch my tent here. The pine trees would keep the heat off my tent and protect me from the wind.” He pointed toward the far eastern shoreline. “I watched the sun come up over there a lot of summer mornings."
"You don't strike me as the camping type."
"I enjoy it every now and then. My bed is a lot more comfortable, but it's good to put everything out of your mind and relax."
The sound of boat motors caught their attention. Sebi craned his neck. “Looks like the party is arriving."
"So ... how does this party thing work? Everyone comes onto the island? Hangs out one boat or another?"
"We'll anchor near each other but no one usually comes aboard. Later you'll see why."
Anxiety pricked her. “Wait. Tell me now. You've mentioned this a couple times and now I want to know what to expect. It's only fair."
He held both her hands and looked into her eyes. “Lots of times, after we have a few drinks and the sun sets, the suits come off. People get really friendly with each other."
Panic struck her. “Like they'd come over and get friendly with us ... me?"
He shook his head. “No. But lots of times people will start making love on their boats. Watching some of them is pretty damn hot. It's completely up to you. If you are uncomfortable with the idea, we'll leave now. There're plenty of places we can swim and spend the evening.” He cupped her cheek. “Alone."
Making love while others watched was a secret fantasy of hers. Faced with the opportunity to make it a reality, Alexa wondered if she'd have the courage. “You promise we can leave if things get out of hand?"
"You have my word. I'd never want to upset you or make you feel like I don't respect you.” He searched her eyes with his. “What? I sense there's something you want to say."
She didn't want to tell him about her fantasy. A girl has to have a few secrets. “I'll race you back to Deepest Pleasure."
His familiarity with the shoreline made it impossible for Alexa to win the race. She slipped and picked her way over the rocks, ouching and wincing when her tender feet landed on the wrong spots.
Sebi returned to help her get safely in the water and then swam toward the boat.
Alexa tried keeping up, but was no match for his strength and experience as a swimmer.
He treaded in the depths until she reached him. He wore a hungry expression as he pulled her against him, encircling her waist with one arm while treading water with the other. Water splashed around them while they sought to stay afloat while their mouths remained joined in a lusty kiss.
The cool water provided a sharp contrast to her warm body. Goose flesh pebbled her skin. His erection brushed against her hip. Even in the cold water, the heat built in the cleft between her thighs. God, how he turned her on.
"Let's get back to the boat.” She was almost out of breath.
He swam off ahead of her and waited at the platform.
When she was within arm's reach, he grabbed her, drawing her to his body once more. He kissed her open mouthed and hungry, like she was the most delicious thing he'd ever tasted.
She enjoyed the way their tongues played together, sometimes in his mouth, sometimes hers, sometimes in the space between. She nibbled his lips, teasing him back into another deep kiss, and swallowed his throaty moan.
His fingers worked the tie of her bikini top and seconds later it floated free.
A new sensation of cold rushed over her breasts. Her nipples rose, becoming daggers. She bit her lip, wondering to do next. The other boats weren't directly in her view. A naughty thought snuck into her mind.
"Just a minute.” She ducked below the water's surface, slipped out of her bikini bottoms, and came up grinning.
His eyes, dark pools of curiosity, watched her move to the ladder.
She emerged naked.
His lips rose in a lazy smile.
She sat on the rung lowest to the water and gripped the rails with both hands. Smiling like a seductress, Alexa thrust her pelvis forward. Her pussy waited a few inches from his face.
Sebi needed no verbal instruction. “Feeling bold after all?"
"Do you mind?"
"Not at all.” Hoisting himself out of the water, Sebi fastened his lips on her clit. The coolness of his flesh sent shivers through her. She inched forward, giving him better access. Well, actually, she wanted to feel more of his mouth on her. She really wanted to press his head tighter, too, but then she'd fall in the water and funny wasn't the mood she was in at all.
"Oh, that feels good.” She stretched out the last word like a rubber band.
His lips popped off her slick skin. “I can't do this too much longer. My arms are going to g
ive out."
She couldn't resist a half-serious tease. “Then stop talking and keep eating."
His eyes gleamed with mirth when he went back to his late afternoon snack.
A boat approached. Alexa's gaze darted in its direction. The erotic nature of what they were doing increased ten-fold. “Another boat is coming. Hurry, babe."
He flicked her erect nub, coaxing it between his lips and then suckling it. A tremor ran through his biceps, illustrating the strain his body was under to eat her in this position.
The boat came nearer, its engines slowing.
Oh, god, they must be coming to join the party. “Use my thighs to support yourself. I'm so close."
"And so is that boat. Do you have any idea how hot you look with my face buried in your pussy right out here for them to see?"
She whimpered from the sensation of his hot mouth against her and the angst of the boat idling only fifty feet away. A sudden urge to dive into the lake ripped through her. She and Sebastian were clearly in view. Shoring up her courage, Alexa kicked modesty to the curb. After all, Sebi said this happens out here all the time. Biting her lip, she let her head rest against the railing behind her. She closed her eyes, focusing only on what he was doing to her, how good it felt—and the show the newcomers were getting.
Waves lapped against their boat, rocking them. Soft whistles of approval and applause came from aboard the newly-arrived vessel.
The word showoff flickered through her brain, making her smile for a second, but she stayed focused on the delicious sensations Sebi was creating. It was physically exhausting for him to hold himself up this way, and she had no idea how much longer he could endure the strain.
His muscles quivered more with each passing second.
She wished she could touch him without falling into the lake.
"That's it, that's it. I'm there. Come on."
Sebi released her tender flesh and spanked her clit.
Pleasure whip-corded through her body. Her hips bucked spontaneously as her orgasm claimed her.
Sebastian slid into the water, and floated on his back, his erection standing at full mast.
More applause and cat-calls came from the neighboring boat. Alexa couldn't have cared less. Her body rippled with sexual release, not one hundred-percent satisfied, but content for the time being.
