  We walked over to the end of the dock where a large triple decked boat was majestically resting upon the waves. It’s three levels contributed to a size that made a strong presence as it eclipsed the nearby yachts. A large sun deck was located in the front. In the back I saw another one filled with lounging couches and a huge hot tub. On the second deck I could see the captains cabin. I couldn’t see what was on the third level but from experience I guessed it was an observation deck. On the back of the boat I saw her name, Bella Fortuna.

  “This is us.” Jace nodded ahead.

  “Holy wow. She’s beautiful Jace. I’ve never even seen a yacht that big.” I said as my eyes got big.

  “Yeah she is a powerful girl, comes in handy in high seas. I wouldn’t trust another boat with my life when I go trans Atlantic.”

  “I’ve always dreamed of doing that!” I exclaimed. “How long does it take to cross?”

  “From the east coast to Europe? Two weeks. That’s if the pirates don’t get ya.” He winked at me.

  “Pirates, seriously?” My eyebrows shot up.

  “Happens, that’s why we carry guns on board.” He squeezed my butt. “No worries, you are not surrendering this booty to anyone but me.”

  I rolled my eyes. “Come on, that’s like the oldest joke ever.”

  “What joke?” he licked his lips and grinned at me, his eyes sparking with fire. I looked down caught by the attraction. Damn he was handsome and bold. Sometime he’d turn it on just for a second, showing me the inferno inside, before retreating within himself. When I looked up again it was gone, a carefully constructed mask covered his emotions.

  I looked past the yacht into the blue that stretched as far as eye could see. “Does the lake get choppy once you are out far enough?”

  “Not really, most of the time it’s smooth as silk. A few rare times in the summer you will get those days with the waves.” He held my hand and helped me from the pier to the beautiful teak deck. “For the bigger challenge I usually ship her to the Bahamas or New York.”

  Inside, Bella Fortuna was even more impressive. Dripped in modern luxury, the red wood complimented the light beige theme in taste. Two large pearl couches with dozens of throw pillows accented the main room. A huge flat screen TV was opposite, mounted on the wall with the top shelf booze cabinet below. An antique African theme wooden table sat atop the soft shaggy carpet. Upon it a bronze model of an airplane midflight. The custom ceiling lights above were switched on creating the night sky effect with hundreds of lights randomly glistening throughout. I’ve heard about this night sky feature in Rolls Royce cars but this was a first time I’ve seen it done anywhere else.

  While Jace was setting up for the cruise I walked to the kitchen and opened up a box of strawberries to compliment a bottle of rose champaign he picked out for us. He told me that once we get out a few miles out of the harbor there won’t be many boats around so a little celebration and drinking will be quite alright for our summer fun.

  “Come on up here, I need my first mate.” His voice radiated through the boat’s speakers.

  Drinks in hand, I made my way up the steps to the captains bridge where Jace was sitting behind the controls. His shirt was off and his beautiful body was getting kissed by the sun. His broad muscular back had started to get tan, a few drops of moisture appearing between his shoulder blades.

  “Kate, you are my first in command so you gonna need to listen up. This is the throttle, you push it forward and she starts to go… forward” he paused and looked at me.

  I playfully punched his arm. “Jace I know what a throttle is.”

  “Very good.” He said. “I guess we can skip the orientation on the occasion of you being a gifted young lady.”

  “Aye captain.” I saluted and leaned over the control board. “Just one question, which one is the brake?”

  His eyes smiled as he got it. “Boat was expensive as it is, had to cut some features. Gives it more personality.”

  I laughed, “Is this one of those owners and boats are alike things?”

  “We are only a few dozen miles of lake away from you finding out, aren’t we?” Damn, check mate. He was good and so self assured. I thought I’d been doing a good job of keeping up but it was as if he wanted me to react, to show him where my boundaries were. A thought hit me like a ton of bricks, was it possible that he didn’t understand that I was already adjusting them because of my attraction to him. Did he really need to see how far I’d take it? I pushed the thought out of my head choosing to concentrate on the present.

  “A drink?” I looked over to the champaign.

  “A toast!” He raised his glass, “To the open waters and a beautiful company! I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else in the world.”

  My cheeks blushed a little as I looked at his sincere face.

  He reached over to the controls. “Crew, take your seats we are ready for takeoff!” He switched the ignition on with a press of a button. Bella Fortuna came purring alive, kicking water by the propellers.

  “Here we go!” he thrust the throttle forward and the boat started gliding across the waves leaving white foamy trails in our wake.

  “I am going to take us along the coast. It is a very nice view of downtown from the water.” Jace shouted over the wind. He kept the boat cruising steadily through the channel as he pointed out different buildings and shared their history. We played the ‘name your favorite building’ game, agreeing that Chicago’s skyline rivals some of the best in the world. He turned the boat and pointed it’s nose away from the city. Looking at his glistening muscles bulge as he worked the wheel it occurred to me that Jace must have taken a day off work.

  “Yeah, I called in today,” He said. “Well, you know, just said I’ll be out of the office. It’s been a while since I took a day off but sometimes you need a good reason to change it up.” His lips curled up. “And this one is a good one. What would you be doing today?” he asked.

  I twisted my mouth to the side forming a small bow as I thought about it, “I probably would be worrying about my application.” I said.

  “So you’ve decided on Kellogg?”

  “I think so. I mean I didn’t want to be too far from home and since it’s one of the best schools it just made sense. I guess I have some of that parental pressure but I always wanted to live up to my potential, you know?”

  “You’re talking to the guy who was trying to do it his whole life, Kate. For me now that is the way to live. I guess I can’t complain, look at where I am right now.” He said speaking more to himself. “Kellogg is a great school, in due time you’ll be taking me out on your boat.”

  “I’ll drink to that!” I toasted his glass, excited by his approval.

  “By the way, how do you feel about taking her for a spin?” he pointed to the wheel.

  “Oh Jace, I’d love to but I want to be very careful.”

  “No worries, let’s just point her to the other side of the lake and launch. Come over here.”

  He took my hand and pulled me closer to him. I sat down on his lap and grabbed the wheel. His muscular chest so close against my back I felt perfectly secure, completely safe.

  He placed his hands on my waist. “We shouldn’t run across too many boats as we hit the open water. Punch it!”

  “Aye Captain!” I shouted and gunned the throttle. Bella Fortuna’s nose lifted in the air pressing me harder against Jace’s hard body. The boat launched forward like a tigress leaping after her pray. We skipped over waves leaving a wake of long white trails behind us.

  “I love a girl who isn’t afraid to push it!” Jace was excited.

  This is so exhilarating! I love it!” I shouted over the wind.

  “Freedom, baby. That’s what we talked about and now we are doing it!” You could see happiness light his face.

  After half an hour we were far away from the city and could only make out the overall skyline, now just tiny little skyscrapers in the distance. The water was calm and we found ourselves hidden away
from the sailboats breezing far away.

  Jace brought up another bottle of champaign and we raised our glasses for all the people in the world to find their own freedoms.

  We made our way onto the sun deck and laid down to enjoy the created peace and solitude. It was just us and the deep blue. our little island of peace away from the buzz of the city.

  “So I have to ask, have you taken many girls out here?” I said knowing full well curiosity killed many cats.

  “Just the important ones.”

  It was smooth but I wanted to dig deeper, “Ha, really though, this is a hell of a way to sweep a girl off her feet. I guess most fall for it.”

  I thought he’d give me something but he just brushed it off, “Well, that’s one guess.”

  I hit his arm, “Come on, you know what I mean.”

  “We are here now, isn’t that what’s important?” he looked at me with a sudden vulnerability in his eyes.

  “Of course, but you know, women want to know things.” I studied the deep olive eyes as they looked away. What was he hiding?

  “Women want a lot of things, period.” There was a slight chill in his tone. I wasn’t trying to give up that easy.

  “May be you’ve met a lot of the high maintenance ones.”

  “May be.” He took off his shirt and stretched out on the deck.

  Shit, this wasn’t going anywhere. I wondered what it could be that made him so cool. I saw the fire inside, I knew that it was there so why would he hide it away? Frustrated I poured myself another glass and watched waves rock the yacht up and down.

  Time lazily passed by in the sun as I studied Jace’s sculpted chest and his hard abs as they rolled up and down with each breath. His gorgeous body laid on top of his multi million dollar yacht in total comfort. I felt the lust amplified by alcohol build up inside me.

  “So, this what haven is like.” I stated to no one in particular.

  “Hmm?” his voice came from under the cap on his face. Adonis impersonated right in front of me.

  “Just enjoying the view.” I said looking over him.

  “Don’t stare too hard, the boat might catch on fire in this sun.” He chuckled as if he read my mind.

  “Very funny.” I shot back. “Admit it, this is nice. Just the two of us here, alone.”

  “Yes, yes it is.” He lifted the cap and fixated on me with his amethyst eyes. “Now why don’t you come here.”

  I should know better. His voice is commanding, and I want to play by my rules. I want to resist but the pure animal lust, the sexual energy resonating from him is driving me wild with excitement. This incredible yacht in the middle of the blue water the total freedom, the gorgeous guy, his perfectly toned body… shit, who was I kidding, I knew I was done. I felt the alcohol open the flood gates of excitement within me. Feeling it rush through me I took a step towards him. I wanted his body now. At the same time a wave rocked the boat and, taken back and tipsy, I misstepped and toppled over a champaign flute sending it rolling towards the edge of the boat. I lunged after it and sprung across Jace, spreading myself in the air and just missing the flute as it plopped into the deep blue watter below. Misjudging my balance I tipped forward too much and landed right into Jace’s strong arms that caught me just as I was heading over the edge myself.

  “I’ve got you, beautiful.” He said as he held me tight. His warm body finally against mine.

  Still partially in shock, I looked at him with my eyes open wide. “I…almost… You saved me.”

  His mouth showed off the perfect pearls, “We don’t need more treasures disappearing in the sea.”

  I melted as he looked right into my eyes. His calm relaxed face was radiating with confidence as I watched the fire ignite again within.

  Darn it, he knew how to play on the edge. A moment ago I wanted to throw something at him, now I wanted to throw myself too.

  Still in a slight shock of almost disappearing into the unknown, I placed my hands on his broad chest and tucked my head below his chin. I felt him rubbing slowly over my back, his strong hands calming me. It felt so good to be here with him, to be so protected and secure. I really wanted this moment to last forever. Now relaxed, I looked up and saw him gazing back at me. He slowly moved his eyes down from mine to my lips and then back up. I just wanted him to take me.

  He pulled me closer, our faces now inches apart. His full lips so close to mine, I could feel his breath.

  “I am glad you are with me right now.” He whispered softly. I could hear the sincerity in his voice.

  “Really?” i said quietly. “That makes two of us.”

  I leaned in for a kiss and drank from his lips as we joined into a unison of lust. Our mouths were hungry for each other. Jace caressed the back of my neck pulling me closer to him as I felt his heart beating next to mine. He moved his other hand down my back, his nails softly scratching me just a little in a way that sent a wake of ecstasy to my core. He moved lower to my butt and gripped it firmly. Our tongues continued to play, slowly and passionately twisting in synchronized dance of love. Excited by his mastery I felt myself getting wet.

  Jace untied my top and lowered the straps. My freed breasts, excited and hungry for attention found themselves in his hot mouth a second later. He called my name as he sucked and flicked my nipples with his tongue. He was masterful, circling the nipples with his warm tongue then blowing cool air on them, to only a second later engulf them again with his hot breath to build my anticipation. I let out a moan and felt the passion flood through me.

  I reached down and found his throbbing flesh fully erected under the swimsuit. I undid the buttons and pulled his rock hard shaft out, freeing it at last. It was so nice and big. I felt excited stroking it up and down, grasping it and massaging it, feeling that size around my fingers. Moving my hand slowly up and down I heard him groan with pleasure. His hands were gripping my ass as he continued to pleasure me with his mouth. I felt my panties flood as he propped me on top of his hot throbbing cock. I started to ride him through my panties, exciting myself more and more as my wet moved up and down his shaft.

  He embraced me, lifted both of us in one strong move, turned and laid me down on my back.

  “Not so fast baby.” he let out a smile as he pulled the bottom part of my flooded panties to the side, exposing my wet pussy lips. He began to massage my clit as I felt the fire rush over me. Slowly getting close, he started kissing me again, moving his tongue in the same direction as the fingers below. The doubled sensation overtook my senses and I knew I needed him with all my being. I wanted him inside me now.

  “I want you.” I whispered in his ear.

  “What’s that?” he looked into my eyes, reflecting me in his olive soul.

  “Jace, I want you now.” I wanted him more than anything.

  “I am yours.” He kissed me softly as he lowered himself. I was begging for his body to enter mine.

  “Kate…” He let out a groan as he went deeper, filling me with his hot flesh I lasted for so badly.

  I moaned as he plunged deep inside me. Slower and faster, thrusting in and out he was working the strokes in a rhythm. His big cock was stretching me to the max, making me quiver with ecstasy. He increased the tempo and filled me to the brim with each stroke. The passion burned through my inner most core as I felt the orgasm build up.

  “More, more” I begged as he thrust again and again into my wet loins.
