Chapter
Fourteen

Bentley

 

I
LOVE SURPRISING Ceci any chance I can get, but this’ll be the surprise of a lifetime. And I can’t fucking wait, especially since it’s her twenty-fourth birthday.

I
’ve worked with my travel agent for years now. So when I decided we both needed out of here, she was the first one I called to make arrangements. She’s always been good at getting last minute flights for me. Everything she has helped me plan is going to be beyond amazing.

The flight has one layover and overall
, will take twenty-one hours before we arrive at St. George, Grenada in the Caribbean’s. Although it’s a long and grueling flight, it’s one of the most beautiful places on Earth. I booked with one of the best resorts that I know will give Ceci everything she deserves.


I hope I remembered to pack everything,” she says, going through her mental checklist as she always does.


Sweetheart,” I interrupt her pretending to make checkmarks in the air. “If there’s anything we forgot the staff will be more than accommodating.”

She latches onto my arm, snuggling her body against mine as we sit in first class of the last plane.

“When do I get to know what we’re doing?”


When we arrive,” I say flatly. She knows we’re headed to the Caribbean now, but she has no idea exactly where or why.


Just maybe a small hint?” She tilts her head up to look at me with pleading eyes. I let out a soft chuckle at the way she continues to be persistent.


Okay, fine.” I clear my throat. “We’ll be doing something we’ve never done before.”


Hmm…” she thinks it over a moment. “Are we swimming with sharks? Please tell me we aren’t. Ooh! Maybe dolphins? I’d love to swim with dolphins once.” I raise my brows at her, trying to keep a straight face. “Am I warm?”


Not even close.” I laugh.


You love this, don’t you? You could be kidnapping me for all I know. My family and friends would have no idea where to even start looking for me.” She huffs in a pretend pout. She hates not getting her way, and it’s just too damn funny seeing her get all worked up.

I lean in, bringing my lips directly to her ear and whisper,
“I promise you it’s going to be incredible. Just enjoy yourself.” I lightly kiss just below her ear, her body shivers in response.

She grins, looking back up at me.
“All right, fine. I trust you.” She leans her head against my shoulder and proceeds to sleep the rest of the way.

My body is all jacked up as we land and grab a cab to the resort that is only a few miles away. I’m beyond excited to see her reaction as she sees where we’ll be staying the next week.

When I viewed the pictures online, I knew it was just right for her. The ocean is clear blue, the sand is white; the entire view bright and sunny and unlike anything I
’ve ever seen. Once I saw the photos—that’s when I knew—this was the perfect place to elope.


Are you ready?” I whisper against her ear, my hands covering her eyes. I made sure she kept them closed as a driver brought us to the resort. Once we arrived, he unloaded our luggage as I helped Ceci out of the cab, her eyes remaining closed.


Yes, I’m dying!” She giggles. “Please let me look.”

With the time difference, it
’s only eleven pm here, making it still her birthday.

I kiss her neck lightly before whispering,
“Happy Birthday, sweetheart,” and uncover her eyes. My hands land on her hips as she lets out an audible gasp, her hands covering her mouth as she takes in the full view of where we are.

“Oh, my god! Are you serious? Oh, my god, it’s gorgeous!” She spins around and waits for me to confirm it. “Holy crap,” she shrieks. Her arms lock around my neck, pulling me into her. “It’s stunning.”


I’m glad you like it.”


I-I fucking love it. I can’t believe this is where we’re staying! This is like where A-celebs would stay or something,” she continues rambling.

I narrow my brows at her, hiding the laughter that
’s eager to burst out. “Are you saying I’m not A-level type?” I pretend to sound offended, but it’s ruined by the laughter that escapes her throat.


Of course, you are, babe. Definitely.” She gives a final nod before she can no longer conceal her laughter.

I grab her neck and pull her mouth on mine. I stroke her tongue with mine, filling her in a way that only I can do. She moans in my mouth, her hands flat against my chest as we give the other guests
a show.


I think we need to move this to the room,” I suggest seductively.


Twenty-one hours hasn’t done anything to kill your drive,” she teases as we lock hands and make our way through the entrance. I hadn’t even noticed our driver had put our luggage on a cart and already hauled it into the hotel lobby.


Nothing could ever kill it when I’m around you, sweetheart. Get ready.” I smirk in her direction although I’m one-hundred percent serious.


I can’t wait for you to see the room. Took a lot of convincing to book this room. Apparently, it books months in advance.”

I pull her against my chest before slamming us into a wall.
“You always have a way of getting what you want, don’t you?”

I dip my face into the nape of her neck, kissing a trail up to her jawline.
“That’s how I got you, isn’t it? A little persuasion and sweet talk.”

She bursts out in laughter, nodding in agreement.
“I guess so.”

We finally make it to our suite. I booked the South Seas Grande Butler Suite with
a private pool. It allows us our privacy but is close enough to enjoy everything else the resort has to offer. It’s like a beachside house that comes with room service and housekeeping.


All right, gorgeous. Get ready.” I open the door and guide her into the suite. The entire thing is stunning and even I’m in awe at the replica of the pictures.

“Ohh, my god, Bentley…” She starts spinning around, taking everything in as we walk through the open-floor concept. The bedroom is a part of the living space with TV and bar area and to the left of the bed is a dinette kitchen table. There are windows all around with long drapes to open or cover them.

I watch as she walks around, touching everything and taking it all in. She walks behind the wall that the bed is against and into the bathroom.

“Holy shit!” she shrieks. I follow in after her and notice that this is not a bathroom. No, this is a suite all on its own with a hot tub set in the middle and a huge walk-in shower and a countertop that goes for days. “I’m not sure I’ll be leaving this bathroom.”

I laugh, taking her hand and guiding her to the patio doors that are wide open, the perfect amount of breeze blowing in.

The doors lead right into the pool. There aren’t any stairs or anything. You literally go from the house to the pool. It’s incredible.


Wow…this... oh, my god, this is perfect.” She wraps her arms around me and secures herself to my chest.


I wanted it to be perfect for you, sweetheart. The perfect getaway.”

She leans back, wiping back a tear that
’s escaped. “It is. I can’t believe you planned this in only a couple hours. You’re insane.” She lets out a half-throaty laugh. “In a good way, of course.” She leans up on her tiptoes and crushes her lips to mine. “Thank you,” she says softly. “Thank you for taking us somewhere safe and new and somewhere we can reconnect without all the added drama. I love you.”

I pull her closer, wrapping my hands under her ass and grasping her thighs so they lock around my hips. Our lips find each other eagerly as we fight the need to have each other, but I
’m not fighting. I’m giving into everything we want.

I walk back toward the bed, laying her gently on top. I crawl over her, keeping her mouth on mine as I wrestle with the button on her jeans.

“Did you super glue these or something?” I pout, too eager to give a damn. I sit up, straddling a leg on each side of her. I grip each side of the button and pull, popping the button and yanking the zipper down all at the same time. I smirk at her. “That’s better.”


You could’ve just asked for help,” she says, amused by my eagerness to get them off.


Well, it’s not like you’ll need them anytime soon.” I crawl off her body, freeing the jeans off her legs.


Those were my favorite pair,” she says seriously, as I toss them to the floor.


I’ll buy you ten more.” I kneel in between her legs and spread them wide. “Now, stop talking.” I grin slyly as I push her panties aside and immediately stroke a finger against her slit. I feel how wet she is for me, making my cock instantly aroused. I nuzzle my nose and lips against her pussy, inhaling her perfect scent.

She moans and
fists both hands in my hair as I begin licking up her pussy, lapping my tongue in and out of her. Her body arches, tensing every time I drive my tongue in harder. I insert a finger as I suck on her clit, making her body shiver against me.


Mm…god. Yes…” she pants hard as I continue eating her. Fuck, I can’t control myself as I insert a second finger and begin sucking against her harder and faster. “Oh, shit. My god…” she moans out, her body trembling harder now against me. Her body tenses as she releases against my tongue, her delicious flavor filling my mouth.


Good girl,” I praise. I lick up her slit once more before pulling my fingers out. I crawl up the bed and lean in to kiss her. She surprises me by grabbing my hand and breaking the kiss.

She brings my hand to her mouth, closes her eyes, and devours my fingers. She wraps her lips around them as she sucks her juices off them.

“Jesus Christ,” I growl. My cock is rock hard, but the sight of what she does about brings me over the edge.


Mm…” she moans as she thoroughly sucks my fingers. “I can see why you spend so much time down there,” she mocks.

I laugh at the way she
’s taunting me. “You’re going to fucking kill me.”

She releases my hand and scoots herself up, so we
’re both sitting up. She lowers both hands down to her shirt, pulling it up and over her head. I watch mesmerized as she unhooks her bra and dangles it off her finger before slowly releasing it to the floor.

My body is in overdrive now
as heat and passion fueling my actions. I grip her jaw, pulling her toward me as I crush our mouths together. I pull her on top of me, her legs straddling my waist. I’m in full clothing and she’s only in her panties. I’m ready to combust out of my jeans at any moment.

I lean up on one elbow and grip her body to me, her legs wrapping around my waist. I stand up and walk us to the bathroom. I set her down on the countertop as I back up and strip all my clothes off.

“That’s better,” she says amused.


Almost.” I grin. I hook my fingers in her panties and pull them down her legs, letting them pool to the floor. “Now
that’s
better.”

She
’s expecting me to take her right then and there—which I’m eager as fuck to do—but I know we are both sore and exhausted from the long flight.

I turn around and head toward the Jacuzzi that
’s at the center of the bathroom. I turn the hot water on and turn the timer on.


Why must you torture me?” she asks as I walk back toward her. She links her arms around my neck and pulls me into her legs. My cock is right at her opening—just one more step and I’d be balls deep inside her.


Sweetheart, right now you’re the one torturing me.” I smirk. “Stop.” I try to take a step back, but she holds her grasp. She arches her body, letting her legs dangle off more. She pulls me once more, making the tip rub against her.


Baby…I need it,” she pleads. Her fingers claw at my shoulders. I try to hide the smirk of amusement as she whines. “Just a little bit…” she grins.

I laugh, holding her hips in place.
“There’s no such thing as just a little bit.”


Fine, go turn off the water and fuck me right here on this
very
expensive counter. I want it rough and hard, and I’m not taking no for an answer.”


So bossy,” I mock, loosening my grip on her and walking backward to the tub. As requested, I turn the water off but continue standing there. I cross my arms over my chest and look directly into her desperate, greedy eyes. “Bend over,” I demand.

I watch as she hesitates a moment, but soon
, hops off and bends over the counter as I asked.


Spread your legs and arch your back,” I say, walking back toward the bedroom. “Don’t move.” I walk over to our luggage and grab a bottle of lube.
