More Than Enough (Enough #2) (21 page)

I rethink all the times I’ve been jealous of the three of them and their close ties. Even my parent’s apathy is better than this full on hostile environment.

Keller quickly pulls me out of my depressing thoughts as he pulls me up and into him and slams the door to what I guess is our room shut. I wrap my legs around him, and he pulls my head back gently and just starts kissing my neck. It makes my insides start to pulse, and all thoughts turn to how fast he can be inside me.

I start to yank his shirt off him, and he
resists my efforts. I look at him confused, and he shakes his head adamantly at me. He takes some deep breaths and seems to try to get himself under control. Finally, he says, “Babe, you have no idea how much I want to just continue what we’re doing right now. But as much as I want to make love to you, I want to show you the ocean here and explore it with you even more. Besides the fact, that I don’t want Riviera or my dad to try to walk in while we’re having some private time. This isn’t like at the condo where we’ve got no adults wandering around. They don’t really respect our privacy when we’re in their homes.”

I nod and think that’s good to know. I really don’t want Keller’s parent to walk in on us in a private moment. That’s definitely something that could scar me and make it hard for me to look them in the eyes again.

“So that means that you want me to change into a bikini, right?” Keller nods decisively at that and confesses, “One of the things that got me through finals was picturing you in a yellow bikini on the beach. I kept studying just thinking that soon I’d be with you vacationing in paradise.” This confession is so unlike him, and I just love it that he can open up like this with me.

I quickly grab my bag and head to the bathroom. I can’t believe my luck. Carter had picked us up new swimsuits this week for the trip, and she got me a neon yellow one. I thought it was too loud for me to wear, but now that Keller’s confessed that was his inspiration during exam week. I
bravely put on the bikini and admire how it looks with my red hair. It’s way skimpier than I’d normally wear, but so was everything that Carter picked up for me. I think it was her way to make me stretch myself.

I don’t even bother with a cover up but just strut out to Keller in my bikini in the sexiest walk I can manage. It seems to work because Keller’s intense gaze has not wavered from my body since I opened the door t
o the bathroom. He’s only wearing board shorts, and it has the exact same effect on me. I can’t resist stroking his chest when I reach him. He gives me a cocky grin and says, “Hey, can I return the favor.” I flirt back, “Only if you don’t want to leave the room.”

He laughs and leads me out the door while cupping my ass with one of his hands. “I’m not going to promise that I’ll keep my hands to myself later, babe. Your ass and
tits in this bikini already have me hard and ready to go. I don’t even know if I can last an hour out here without taking you back to the room.” I lean into him as we walk back down the stairs and say, “Who said you had to.” He gives me a look of such longing and desire that I try to memorize it. I love that he wants me just as much as I want him. Now, if I could only get him to love me with the same intensity.

We don’t run into anybody as we walk through the house and outside. We pass a pool with a waterfall and different cabana areas. It looks so inviting and beautiful that I give Keller a pout. He urges me, “Just wait and see how beautiful the beach is here. This place doesn’t hold a candle to it.” I give him a doubtful look but continue on past the pool to the trail that goes directly to the beach.

When we step out finally and can see the clear blue water with the mountains in the background, I understand why Keller was in such a hurry to just get me out here. It’s like all the most beautiful things in nature all combined together in one picture. I look around and nobody else is anywhere to be seen. I ask Keller, “Are we all alone out here?” He nods and informs me, “Yes, this beach is private. Unless Brayden and Carter wander out here, we’re completely on our own. And that area over there is completely private, and you can hear anyone that’s coming up to it.”

He points to an area of the water that is surrounded
by trees and is shaded so that you can’t see it clearly from the beach. I tease him, “I don’t know if I should just go to such a secluded spot with you. I mean you could try anything over there.” With that I started to run away from him, Kell immediately starts chasing me. I laugh as I try my best to keep out of his grasp. He catches me quickly and throws me over his shoulder as he runs with me to the secluded water spot.

He gently tosses me in, and I say
, “You’ve got me here now so what are you going to do with me?” He smiles evilly at me and growls, “I don’t know. What do you think I should do with you?” I decide to try to be brave and shock him a little. I pulled on my bikini strings while I watched him. “Maybe you could do something with me if I had fewer clothes on.” I pull the bikini top completely off, and with a shakier voice, he states, “Yes, I definitely think we both need less clothes on.” He didn’t even reach down but I could see him just shake his board shorts off and come towards me.

The sight of him striding towards me naked and hard fires
my blood with excitement as I think about him taking me out here in the water. It is so private, but it still feels naughty and different than in his room at the condo. He reaches me, and I feel how hard he is as he presses against me. I was already ready for him just from kissing in his room and playing around with him on the beach. But he isn’t in the mood to takes things fast because he just starts slowly kissing me as he strokes me gently with his hands. He touches everywhere as he kisses me softly and sweetly and then more forcefully. He starts touching my upper thigh until he eases his hand up until it’s stroking my core. When he slides a finger inside and starts a gentle rhythm, I beg him to just take me.

He kisses my lips as I beg and tells
me, “Red, I just want to make sure you’re completely ready for me, and I want to make you feel so good.” I force out, “I’m ready, Kell, promise, please.” He pulls back to look in my eyes and gives me a glimpse of all the desire he’s holding back while he brought me to this point.

As I look into his eyes, I know that this isn’t
going to be a slow sweet type of lovemaking. This was going to be hard and desperate, and I was ready for all of it. Still keeping eye contact, he slides my bottoms down and just pushes himself up and into me. The shock of being filled up so quickly makes me moan loudly, and he growls, “Yes, Red, let me hear you.” And I don’t hold back myself back. I let him know how good it feels with my moans, and at the end, he groans out his pleasure as I scream when we climax together.

Afterwards, he
just holds me to him and strokes my hair. I let myself enjoy his touch for a few minutes, and then finally speak, “Okay, Keller, you’d better let me down.” He pulls me off of him, and I stand on shaky legs. He puts a hand on my shoulder until I am steady and gives me a cocky smile. “I rocked you a little bit, huh?” My orgasm was just too good to be annoyed with his cockiness, and I just agree with him without a fight. “Yeah, you did, but we’d better get back to the house and check in with Carter and Brayden. She came to support us, and I don’t want to just leave her to the wolves while we have sex on the beach.”

Keller chuckled and added, “Well, I think it might be a little too late for that. We already did everything you said.”
I shot him a dirty look and tell him, “I meant we needed to get back to them now. I know we already had sex on the beach.” He just takes my hand in his and leads me back up to the house. We walk through the house and go up the opposite stairs to Brayden and Carter’s room.

The door was opened
, and we just walk inside. Carter has on a bright red swimsuit and looks fantastic, but I can see that her eyes are red from crying. But as soon as she sees us, she puts on a huge smile and asks, “Athena, did you get to see the beach? Isn’t it beautiful?” I pull my hand from Keller’s and walk to her and just give her a hug.

She leans
into me for support for a minute and gives me a tight squeeze. “Yes, the beach here is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. Keller gave me the full tour.” She looks suspiciously at me and must have caught the inflection in my voice because she laughs and says, “I’m sure he did.” I shot Keller a look at that, and he shrugs at me as if to say it’s not my fault.

I shook off any feeling
s of embarrassment and announce, “We were wondering if you and Brayden wanted to go swimming with us before dinner.” “Of course, we would. Bray just went to talk to his father for a minute, but he should be back in no time.” I didn’t even have to ask what Bray went to talk to Sloan about. As soon as he saw Carter’s tears, he’d want to fix it. He’s so protective of her that I can’t imagine him ever watching her cry without doing something about it.

He walks
in right after that, and Carter tries to give him a bright smile. But I can tell it was a strain for her. His face was rigid with tension, and I could tell he isn’t fooled by the fake smile either. Brayden pulls Carter onto his lap and nuzzles her neck with his face. She asks him, “Hey, you want to go swimming with Keller and Athena, Bray?” He looks at Keller and they exchange tense glances while Carter isn’t looking. I’m interpreting that to mean that the talk he’d had with their dad didn’t go well.

Brayden answers Carter, “Whatever you want to do is good with me, baby, you know that.” Carter jumps up and says with forced enthusiasm, “Great, let’s go swimming then. When I looked out the window, the water looked unbelievable
.” I elbowed Carter as she started walking towards the door. “I’ll go swimming with you, but no playing chicken period. You knocking me off Keller once was enough for me, kay.” She protested, “Hey, I took it easy on you that night cause I liked you and wanted to be friends. You should’ve seen how rough I was with the other girls that night, especially the ones that were checking Brayden out.”

“Oh don’t worry, I got to see it all. Keller and I watched from the sidelines, but he couldn’t convince me to get back in
the pool again.” Keller laughs at this and adds, “Carter, you do have to admit that you can get a little scary and intense for people that aren’t prepared for how competitive you are.” We all laugh at that, and Carter agrees, “Okay, maybe I can go a bit over the top with needing to win. Maybe I’ll try to work on that.” Brayden speaks up at that, “Baby, don’t you dare change a thing. I love you exactly the way you are. You’re perfect to me.” I can tell he’s trying to reassure her about everything since her mom’s attack earlier.

We mak
e it all the way through the house without running into their parents, and I can tell that we’re all relieved. As soon as the boys see the beach, they pick Carter and me up and run with us to the water and throw us in. I come up sputtering and gasping for air with the boys nowhere in sight. Carter is right beside me and says, “Athena, let’s get them. Paybacks a bitch.”

Carter trying to be tough makes me laugh, but I agree that we need to get them back. “Carter what are we going to do to them once we get them?” She laughs evilly as she searches for any sign of where they swam off to and tells me, “We’re going to pretend that we just want to kiss them, and then we are going to slide their shorts off them and steal them. We’ll take them out of the water with us until they apologize for dunking us and promise to be our slaves
for the week.” She came up with this plan so quick that I’m really impressed, but I guess that’s the benefit of having stepbrothers for four years.

We finally spot them by the rocks and trees quite a distance from us so we start swimming towards them and try not to look suspicious. They seem to watch us carefully at first but relax as they can see we’re not mad or coming at them quickly. As we reach them, Brayden asks, “So did you girls enjoy that gentle dip in the water?” Carter gives him a sultry smile and says, “I did, baby, thank you.” Keller looks suspicious at her for that, but Bray is already distracted by her breast in his face and her stroking his chest.

I know that I’ve got to do my part with Keller too so I swim all the way over to him and just wrap my legs tightly around him in the water. He puts his hands on my ass as he holds me to him and tells me, “Life really couldn’t get any better right now, Red. I’ve got my girls gorgeous legs around me in one of the most beautiful place on the planet.” I smile up at him, and he leans in for a kiss. I manage to keep kissing him while I get my feet back on the ground. I grab his ass, and he lets out a surprised groan. Well, I was just trying to get a good position with my hands to take his shorts, but good to know that he enjoys me touching him like that too. I glance at Carter through the corner of my eye, and she gives me a slight nod of encouragement.

I enjoy one more stroke of his tongue against mine and pull his shorts down and off as quick as I can. I start trying to swim as fast as I can toward the shore, and I’m almost there. But at the last second, I feel a hand wrap itself around my foot and tug hard. I’m pulled into Keller’s arms in the next second, and he grabs his shorts from m
y grip. He mockingly says, “Red, if you wanted to skinny dip, you should’ve just told me. You know I’m always accommodating like that.”

Then he just stares
at me and blurts out, “I love you.” I look at him stunned, and then hug him to me and confess quietly, “I love you too.” He pulls my head back, and we just stare at each other until he finally takes my mouth in a passionate kiss. It goes on and on, and I never want to stop kissing him now. The euphoric feeling of knowing that someone loves me is just something I don’t think I’ll ever take for granted.
