some of the buildings. There was nothing quite like the view from the penthouse suite.
The cool night breeze brushed against my skin but the alcohol in my blood kept me warm. Rafael ran his hands alo ng my arms as he stood just behind me. I sighed a deep breath as he leaned his head into my neck and kissed me softly. Goose bumps covered my body as I closed my eyes for just a moment to try and take everything in.
“ Are you sure your friend will be all right?” he asked me.
“ She’ll be just fine. She knows how to take care of herself. Besides, you gave her a suite in this hotel. I’m sure she’ll take full advantage of it.”
“ And what about the friend she invited with her? How do you think she did?”
“ She picked a fine lobster. He should be able to satisfy her appetite. At least, until she gets hungry again.”
We both laughed as we considered what Danica might be doing at this very moment. Rafael held me tight in his embrace. His body pressed up against my back. I reached down and held his hands in mine as I enjoyed the view of the city. The peace and serenity of the moment forced another sigh out of me.
“ Did you enjoy yourself tonight?” he asked me.
“ Of course, I did. I’m with you.”
He kept his arms wrap ped around me as I turned around to face him. I kissed him softly then smiled. I lost myself in his deep brown eyes. The feeling he gave me in my stomach hadn’t changed ever since we became official. He took one of my hands and kissed my fingers.
“ Six months,” I said. “I can’t believe it’s been that long.”
“ Why? Are you already sick of me?”
“ No,” I said with a smile. “The exact opposite, actually. You always figure out how to surprise me.”
“ How exactly did I surprise you?”
“ Danica. I talked to her. She said you were quite the catch.”
“ Is that so?”
“ Yes, it is. She knew who you were but all she talked about was the money. But after tonight, she saw something else. She saw your kindness, your generosity, your charm…”
“ And what about you, Alice?”
“ What do you see?”
“ I see… a man that I care about. A man that I’m falling for more and more with every passing day. I mean, you don’t actually have a problem, do you? You weren’t just being nice to her because she’s my best friend.”
“ There’s no cause for alarm. She has good taste in friends. I’m sure I can trust your judgment in the people you spend your time with. Were you expecting her to think that I was an asshole?”
“ It’s happened before.”
Rafael smirked at me and kissed me again.
“Let’s not worry about before,” he whispered. “Let’s just enjoy right now.”
“ Indeed.”
I turned back around to enjoy the view from the penthouse. Rafael held me in his powerful embrace as I leaned back up against him. He pressed his body to me, slowly grinding his hips toward me. I sighed as I felt his length thicken against my ass.
“ Ooh, what’s that?” I said coyly.
“ You know what it is, Alice,” he said he kissed me along my neck. “It’s exactly what you do to me. Every… single… time.”
I exhaled slow and controlled breaths as he pushed himself up against me. His body was hard but in his pants, he was even harder. His rigid cock bulged through his trousers and teased me. He moved it between my ass cheeks and slowly moved it up and down. Just the sensations of him grinding against me was enough to push me past my limit. The desire I always had inside of me that burned for him began to grow.
He reached his hands around my waist. He massaged the bare skin of my midriff. His palms pressed against my flesh, working just past my belly button, and up to ward my breasts. He cupped them in his hands and forced another gasp from my mouth. I exhaled a deep sigh as I writhed up against him, his lips still nibbling on my neck.
“ Out here,” I groaned. “I want you to take me here… on the balcony.”
The fire inside of me was
