Madeline's POV
"You're late,"
John sat in a booth, a glass of brandy or some other dour alcohol sloshing around it, sat on the table. He had a stern look on his face as if he were training a bunch of soldiers. The jackass probably felt like he could talk to me however he wanted because I had allowed him to be part of the plan.
Dumbass.
He had better have a valid reason for calling me out here. I was here running around, trying to make sure things worked out as we wanted it to. As I wanted it to. This was my dream anyways and John was just privileged to be a part of it.
He had nothing to go to if one thought about it. He had nothing to do but join me anyway. If he hadn't joined me, what would he have done? Make a living?
Without this deal, he had no hope of being set for life. Without me he was nothing. He had to
Madeline's POV "That sounds like a great idea, John!" I told him, pulling away to see the smug look on his face. He leaned back into his seat and grabbed the glass of brandy. "Good right? No one loves a pity party more than rich folks I tell you," he said, raising the glass at me. "Especially the women," Oh he was not wrong. Isabella Stone could be the female dragon the business world knew her to be. She was crazy, fierce and had single handedly held back sharks from eating up her husband's Business. Smart woman. Adam's father had left them with almost nothing but a run down foundation and loans to pay. But there was the fame of the Stone Foundation and the authenticity. At least that was how some magazine had described it. Adam's father wasn't much of a good
Eve's POVI needed to escape. And this was Hawaii! It was the perfect place to escape from reality, if I chose to see it that way. This was a vacation. The point was to get away from bad memories. Dwelling on them, the good and bad ones, wasn't getting me anywhere.The view from the window was already marvelous, I wonder what it would feel like to be in the view itself.To be in the cool open air, to smell the sea, to hear the waves crashing against the shores, gently. I only got to see these things in movies. I might as well experience it all for myself."No more moping around then," I mumbled, launching to my feet. Tom had gone to have his fun. I could bet his entire house that he had found a woman to prey on tonight and while I was wasting away on the bed, losing my mind slowly, my husband got to have the time of his life with as many women as he wan
Adam's POVShe was here.I had caught sight of her standing on the banister that led to the third floor just before I'd finished speaking to the security guard. I hadn't seen her since I settled them in their room and it had taken everything in me not to go to their suite just so I could see her.Not only was that plain foolish, it was terribly risky. What if Tom found out? What if I slipped up and he noticed something was going on between me and his wife?Just turning those thoughts over and over in my head made me feel awful. They had in fact been the reason why I couldn't stay in my suite and had gone for a walk round the resort.I was lusting after another man's wife. After a woman that could not be mine. Yet I desperately desired, desperately that I would have her."... Would that be fine sir?"
Eve's POVHeat.His heat. It coated my face, made the hair on my skin tingle and drove me crazy with desire. He was so close, I could feel his breath on my face, hot and harsh, demanding to be felt."Golden," it slipped past my lips and I closed my eyes in longing, eagerly waiting for his kisses. Eager for those firm lips to plunder mine, for this tongue to invade every corner. Every part of me.But the kisses never came. He slipped away from my grasp and for a minute I just stared into space like a fool."I'm sorry," He said, plummeting down from the high he had taken me to in the first place. "That should never have happened,"My head snapped up to look at him. The man who had responded eagerly to my touch, the man who had driven me dizzy with desire was gone. His face was shuttered off and he hid
Adam's POVMore. More. I needed more.My hands slipped into her hair, tangling with the strands gripping a handful to hold her head in place. Fuck me, she had the softest pair of lips I had ever known.And that mouth? That mouth, fuck. The taste. Her taste. I teased her tongue with mine. Each stroke like velvet, each touch like burning fire.Not enough. Fuck it was never enough.I wrapped another hand around her neck and pressed on it, tilting her head up so I could access that sweet tart mouth. And of course, my Eve was so fucking responsive, I was sure it would drive me mad eventually.Those sounds she made were otherworldly. Those mewls. Those soft quivers and purrs. The way she arched against me, begging for more drove me crazy. Ah fuck yes.I wanted her. I wanted her s
Tom's POV"Bass!" Some drunkard yelled behind me and I laughed at how dumbass he sounded. What the hell was Bass?Oh who gave a fuck about that? Not me, that was certain. I was down to enjoy my time here in Hawaii and hell yes I could say I was already.I had started off with a drink at the open bar in the resort. The first few drinks were free because Stone was a rich son of a bitch and he had the money to give margaritas for free. I had to be rich like that in the next few years or I'd be a total screw up.And of course I would be. I planned to be. Once the deal with Adam starts pouring in profits and Barlow brings bugger deals once he got my gift to him, then it was only a matter of a few years. That was it.After a few drinks, I'd head out of resort with a hired car. All I had on was my Hawaiian shirt and shorts and my debit card beca
Eve's POVAfter walking for what seemed like forever, even though I was pretty sure it was only five minutes, we'd reached Adam's suite. Anticipation fluttered in my lower belly like butterflies and I tried to calm my nerves.Total surrender, he had said.I had no idea what that meant. But I trusted Adam. He wouldn't hurt me. I knew that, somewhere deep down in my bones. I didn't think I had any reasons to be afraid of what he meant by total surrender. Instead I was thrilled. What would he do? What did he want?He swiped his key card against the door and it popped open. Without hesitation, he yanked me into his suite and slammed the door behind me, bolting it shut.For a long minute we stood by the door. I waited, waited for him to touch me.But none of that came. Instead he stepped away from me and walked deeper
Adam's POVAh hell!I watched, hard as fucking titanium, taut like a coiled spring as Eve squirted her juices all over my bed. Fuck yes. I had made the right call bringing her to my room. My tongue darted out to taste the ones that had splashed on my face and I groaned.How long did I have to hold back?I wanted nothing much than to bury my face right between her legs. I wanted it all around me. Her scent, her taste, her essence. I wanted to hear those soft sounds she made because of me. With her eyes closed as she climaxed and shuddered.But I couldn't touch her. I would not. Her thighs quivered, her pussy lips clenched and unclenched and a memory of that vice grip around my cock made me cuss in frustration. Ah hell, this was madness. Madness that I had signed up for the minute I told her the words total surrender.
