“No.”

“Then what’s the issue?” I asked beginning to lose my
patience.

She simply stared at me for a moment before saying, “Where
do I begin?  You’ve been acting weird all day.  You’re suddenly
vegetarian, you took several phone calls during our afternoon meeting, Tim
showed up in a new limo, took us to a heliport on the west end instead of
downtown, and now you suddenly have a new plane.  What the hell is going
on, Jack?”

“I just sold my company for a couple hundred million more
than I expected and I like new things.”

“Bullshit, Jack.  There’s more to it than that.  I
overheard the conversation you were having in the hallway at noon.”

“At noon…” I had to think for a moment, as there had been
several conversations.

“Yeah, the one where you put out a hit on someone,” she said
a little too loudly.

“A hit?  What the hell are you talking about?”

“I heard you loud and clear telling someone to use their
skills to get rid of some people,” she whispered as her hands began to shake.

“That was Anthony.  Settle down hun.  He’s not
going to kill anyone.  He was special ops reconnaissance in the
Marines.  He’s going to use his skills to get some dirt on the Ricci
brothers.”

“Who?”

“The Ricci brothers have been harassing me for months, ever
since we announced the merger.  That stunt with the paparazzi was the last
straw.  You actually think that I would have someone killed?”

“Well, no, but that’s sure what it sounded like.”

“That’s hilarious, Kate.  God no.  The brothers
have gone chin deep into money laundering and other white-collar crimes. 
I hired Anthony to investigate them until he can get enough dirt on them to
shut them down.”

“Oh, so it’s blackmail instead of murder.”

“Call it what you want.  When Anthony is done, we will
simply send them a copy of all the evidence against them and tell them to leave
me alone.  If they don’t, it will all wind up on the DA’s desk.  I
win either way.”

For the next 45 minutes, I explained the situation that had
occurred between the Ricci brother’s father and me.  How they had blamed
me for the failure of their father’s business and had increasingly become
involved in organized crime throughout New York City, as well as Jersey. 
They weren’t some innocent choir boys.

“Thank you for the explanation, Jack,” Kate said in the
end.  “I was really hoping there was a good explanation for
everything.  You still haven’t told me why we took a different car, used a
different helipad, and are flying in a different plane, though.”

“Okay, Nancy Drew…”

“I loved that movie.  Emma Roberts was awesome,” she
said as her eyes lit up.

“It was a book series when I was young… but anyway. 
Anthony thought we should leave the city abruptly, take an alternate route, and
use different vehicles.  This new plane really is a test flight.  I’m
also changing the call sign on the yacht and upgrading the communication and
GPS system.  Once it’s all complete, we will have a fresh identity.”

“So that’s why you kept leaving our meeting,” she replied as
everything suddenly made sense.

“Yes.  I didn’t want to alarm any of you,” I told her,
pausing for a moment.  “Jayne and Brandon are used to me mixing things
up.  You were the only one who jumped to the conclusion I was a murderer.”

“Hey, I’m the only one who heard that conversation in the
hallway…”

“Alright.  I’ll let it slide this time.”

As we reached our cruising altitude, I couldn’t help
laughing to myself about Kate’s overreaction. 
Putting a hit on the
Ricci brother…. that’s hilarious.  Although… if those boys continue to
cause problems, Anthony could easily take them out for good.  They would
be anchored to the bottom of the East river before anyone even missed them.
 
After that pleasant thought floated through my mind, I reclined my chair and
closed my eyes.  It had been another long-ass day.

Chapter 9 – The Open Sea

Friday Feb 3

Kate

This bed is amazing,
was my first thought of the
day. 
Where’s Jack,
was my second thought.  After lounging for
a few more minutes, my curiosity got the best of me.  I slipped on my robe
and made my way to the door of his study.  I could hear a woman’s voice,
so I stopped at the doorway and peeked inside. 
Oh, my god… he’s doing
yoga… 
There he was in the downward dog position, following a workout
video that he had found on YouTube.

“Are you getting a good stretch?” I asked, as I reached out
and ran my fingers along the back of his leg.

“God!  You scared the shit out of me,” he said jumping
out of the position.  “You aren’t supposed to do that to people with heart
conditions.”

“Sorry, I couldn’t resist.  I can’t believe you’re
doing yoga.  Have you tried it before?”

“No, but I’ve watched you enough to get the hang of
it.  I kind of like it.”

“Good.  It would be fun to do together.”  I ran my
hand along the back of his leg again.

“Keep that up and we’ll be skipping yoga for something more
physical,” he replied with a sly smile.

I knew he was only bluffing.  With Jayne next door and
Brandon across the hall, there was little chance that Jack would risk anyone
hearing any fooling around. 
It’s probably best after the scare we had
the other night.  It’s good to see him changing some habits, though. 
Hopefully, some healthy changes- combined with stem cell therapy - will
strengthen his heart.  There’s nothing I want more than to have him
healthy again.  I love the way he makes love to me.  Life wouldn’t be
the same without it.

“What are you thinking about?” Jack asked as he got up off
the floor.

“I was just thinking about the changes you’re making. 
I’m proud of you.”

“Thanks.  There are bigger changes to come.”

“Really?  What next?”

“When I start stem cell therapy, I’m going to add high
intensity interval training to the mix.  I’ve been planning on starting
all of this once I got the business sold.”

“I thought maybe you were doing it for me.”

“Actually, I give you full credit.  I hadn’t even
considered intense cardio until that day you almost killed me in the shower,”
he said with laugh.  “If you and I are going to be together, I have to get
in better shape.”

I slipped my arms around him and pulled him close.  “I
love you.  I’m glad you want to take better care of your body.  I
would like to see the world with you.”

Instead of replying, Jack just squeezed me tight.  If
it hadn’t been for our nine o’clock business meeting, it would’ve been nice to
go back to bed and play around for a while.  Instead, we had to get ready
for the day, and went to meet the others on the Promenade deck for a breakfast
meeting.
 Everyone was gathered at the forward-most table in order
to take advantage of the beautiful views.  The entire front of the room
was glass from floor to ceiling, so it provided plenty of light, in addition to
the panoramic view of the ocean.

“This is amazing Jack,” Brenda said as she sat down to join
us.  “I’ve never seen anything like it.”

Jayne and Brandon’s first impression was similar to
mine.  “This thing puts most 5 star hotels to shame,” Brandon said while
looking around the formal dining area.

“It’s definitely more comfortable than the conference room,”
Jack said as he asked everyone to help themselves to breakfast and take a
seat. 

Chef Jameson had laid out a nice breakfast buffet for
us.  It would be interesting to see how long Jack could stick to his new
diet with all of this good food constantly tempting him.

“We will go through the majority of the marketing details
today, and by the time we are done, we should be approaching Turks and Caicos,”
he added.

“Oh, that will be beautiful,” Brenda chimed in.

“Tonight we will be dining at Anacaona, which is outdoors,
has gourmet cuisine, as well as the best lobster menu I’ve ever seen. 
Make sure you’re hungry for it,” he added before sitting down to another
specially made egg white omelet and black coffee. 

It didn’t seem to bother him a bit that he was eating
healthy while the rest of us enjoyed French toast, waffles, crepes, and the
most delicious glazed bacon ever. 
I’m impressed, Jack.
  I
remembered that he had always eaten very little during the day, but more than
made up for it at dinnertime. 
I know how much he loves steak and
lobster, so maybe he’s just saving himself for later.

The morning flew by and after our noon break, we moved our
meeting to the Lido deck. 
This is the only way to work.
  The
blue and turquoise waters in the background were in sharp contrast to the grimy
winter streets of New York City.  Just when I thought the view couldn’t
get any more picturesque, a pod of bottlenose dolphins joined us.  
It was amazing to watch them swim along with us - jumping and having fun. 
They look so happy and free.  I see why Jack wants to spend some time
out here.

Jack

By mid-afternoon, we had covered most of my agenda and it
was obvious that everyone was becoming distracted by the beautiful day. 
We all agreed that it would be better to finish our business the following
morning, even though it was a Saturday.   I was in the mood to take
out the mini-sub, but we had to keep moving at full speed in order to make our
dinner reservations. 

The kids and Brenda went down to the bar to introduce
themselves to Lewis.  It was a great day for cocktails next to the pool.

“Lewis will make you anything you like.  He’s amazing,”
Kate told them.

Kate and I slipped into our swimsuits and headed back up to
the Lido deck to hit the hot tub.  Even though it was almost 80 degrees
out, the breeze was cool, so the hot tub felt great.  Seeing Kate in her
little bikini again heated things up as well.

“You’re going to have to get a less skimpy swimsuit,” I
suggested.  “You give me a hard-on every time you wear that thing.”

“Oh yeah, maybe you should back off on the T-juice a little
if you can’t handle it,” she fired back.

“I love your spunk.  It turns me on when you let me
have it right back.”

“You definitely need to dial back on the testosterone if
that turns you on, too.”

Maybe she’s right…. I really want to have sex with her
right here.  It’s not right for someone my age to have raging hormones
like this.  I should maybe cut back now that I’m going to start having
stem cell treatments...  I love the feeling of her warm, wet skin. 
The smell of her hair is sexy as hell, too.

I raised her onto the bench where I was sitting.  She
straddled my legs facing me and gave me that naughty look of hers. 
I
know she’s thinking the same thing as me.  She just doesn’t like to admit
it for some reason. 
I gave her a subtle kiss and squirmed just a bit
to reposition myself.  Instantly knowing the reason for my discomfort,
Kate kissed me hard and ran her hand down my abdomen.  Reaching inside my
trunks, she pulled the drawstring and grabbed a hold of my rock hard cock.

“For someone with a weak heart, you certainly don’t have any
problem getting hard,” she whispered as she began nibbling on my ear and
stroking me.  Taking a quick look around, I realized the hot tub had been
positioned perfectly in a secluded corner.  It provided the perfect
combination of sunshine and fantastic ocean views while maintaining an amazing
level of privacy. 

I sat back and closed my eyes while Kate continued to
massage my balls and dick.  I tried to relax and maintain control in order
to keep my heart rhythm steady.  Kate seemed to understand what I was
doing, so she took it easy on me this time.  She reached down and tugged
at the bottom of my shorts.  I lifted up just enough to let them slide
down my thighs.  She pushed her bikini bottom to the side and positioned
herself perfectly above my throbbing head.

“I’m going to be gentle this time,” she said as she pushed
down just hard enough to penetrate her folds.  I felt her warmth envelop
me as she slowly lowered herself the remainder of the way.  She held that
position and moaned softly as she began to probe my lips with her tongue. 
What a fucking turn-on… 
The thought that we could be caught at any
moment was in the back of my mind, but it actually made me even harder. 
Not that I wanted to get caught, but just the idea of it was freakishly
exciting.

I had never felt closer to Kate as she slowly began to move
her hips up and down in the most gentle and tender way.  I could honestly
feel how much she cared and how careful she was being with each loving
stroke.  I knew she intended for this to be calming for me, but her slow
smooth motions were incredibly steamy.  I could feel my heart pumping in
my chest as I tilted my hips just a bit to give her the best possible
angle.  Our lips crashed together as she expressed her appreciation.

Once Jack shifted his position and his head began to hit
that special spot, it took all of my resolve to keep my slow and gentle
pace. 
Slow…. Slow…  Slow…
was the sole thought that kept on
going through my head.  Jack groaned and leaned his head back as if he was
having a hard time maintaining control as well.  I placed my hands on his
chest and slowly continued to glide up and down his thick shaft.  My arms
began to tremble as the pleasure began to radiate out from my core and engulfed
the rest of my body.  The tension had reached the point where I wanted to
shift gears to put myself over the edge.  Oh, shit… I saw a shadow pass by
out of the corner of my eye.  I casually turned my head to the side but
didn’t see anything obvious. 
There’s a flag flapping in the breeze,
maybe that’s what I saw.

That scare brought me back to the reality of where we were,
so I went back to slow, subtle movements.  Jack groaned softly at the
resumption of the slow and steady pace.  The next few minutes were when I
discovered the true beauty of tantric sex.  Jack had introduced me to it
the prior week in the hot tub, but now I was in full control, and it required
every ounce of restraint within me.  It became obvious after a few more
moments that I was stimulating Jack just enough to be pleasurable, but not
enough to put him over the edge.  It seemed as if we were both caught up
in that same endless state of bliss that had blown my mind a week
earlier.  Jack kept his eyes closed and continued to arch his back in an
apparent search for relief. 

“Just relax baby,” I whispered wanting to bring him to
fruition gently, without any heart issues.

I placed my hands against the edge of the tub and gave him a
series of firm thrusts, which led to our mutual release of sexual
tension.  He remained buried deep within me as I began kissing him hard
once again.  Even though I was glad that we had made passionate love
without any problems, I really didn’t want the moment to end. 
I would
love to be stuck in this beautiful moment in time.

The sound of someone clearing their throat followed by,
“Excuse me, sir,” jolted both of us back to the present moment.  Jack
grabbed hold of my hips in order to keep me from jumping off his lap and
leaving him exposed. 

“Yes,” he said calmly.  I was impressed by the casual
expression on his face.

“Excuse me, sir.  We just passed Cockburn, sir, and the
Captain is wondering if you have a preference on which side of the island he
docks the ship,” he explained obviously flustered.

Cockburn, that’s ironic.

“I assume he would prefer to stay to the south and cut some
travel time, correct?” Jack countered.

“Yes, sir, that’s the preferred route, if it’s alright with
you.”

“That’s fine.  We’ll be taking the helicopter tonight anyway,
so it doesn’t make a difference.”

“Thank you, sir.  I’ll let him know.  Sorry again
to disturb you.”

“Not a problem.  What’s your name again?”

“Haviar, sir.”

“Alright, thank you, Haviar.  Tell the Captain that we
will be departing at about 6:30 for dinner.”

“Yes, sir.  I will let him know.”

We both snickered and began to collect ourselves as Haviar
headed back down the stairway.  “That was a little too close,” Jack said,
as he pulled up his swimsuit.

“Hmmm, I thought I might have seen a shadow earlier. 
Hopefully that wasn’t him.”

“You should know by now not to tell me things like that.”

“Sorry, I thought maybe you were becoming a bit more
voyeuristic.  The crew has probably seen our pictures on the internet
anyway.”

“Alright.  Stop.  I’m still trying to convince
myself that none of that actually happened…  Look at how beautiful the
islands are from here.”

“They are beautiful…” I laughed at how abruptly he changed
the topic.

As we headed back to the Master Cabin to get ready for
dinner, I couldn’t wipe the perma-smile off my face.  It was incredible to
be back on Jack’s yacht, working on the business together, and putting Jack in
sexual situations that were still well outside of his comfort zone. 
This
is exactly how I imagined it would be when we first started putting the concept
together.  I’m beginning to believe that dreams really can come true.
