had been married for about seven years now and spent much of the

cruise saying how they were the palest thing out on the water with the

exception of the yacht. Brian had been discharged for an injury the

previous year but still carried himself like a proud military man. His

wife was a child development psychologist.

The second couple was Devón and Jakobie Grant. Devón, an

African-American, had met his wife during a Temporary Assigned

Duty, TAD, in her native Germany. He was currently out of the service,

choosing instead to be a civilian contractor and his wife was the stay-at-

home mother of their four children.

The rest were single men, all of them pilots, all of them the po-

tential next poster boy for the Navy…or any branch of the armed

services, for that matter. There was Mario Archer, a stocky man who

had a great smile; Antwon Hulton, who had rich, chocolate eyes and a

dimple in his right cheek; and finally Tag Walker, the biggest flirt of

them all. His green eyes were constantly full of mischief and he’d gotten

himself tossed overboard more than once after they’d dropped anchor

where they were eventually going to dive.

Laughing with the two women beside her, Alexis made her way

back aft. She had finally removed her shirt and pants, leaving her clad

in her Wedgewood-blue bikini and pale, creamy-white magnolia sarong

that barely covered her firm ass. And all the men were drooling over

her. Oblivious to the attention, she walked with the women and stood

at the railing drinking a beer, totally enjoying the day.

Scott’s eyes narrowed, especially after he noticed how much the

three pilots were enjoying her body. He felt a stirring in his loins as he

moved towards her, wearing nothing except his swim trunks. “Ladies,”

he said, slipping an arm around Lex.

They nodded at him and smiled as his large body blocked the

view of the other men. The other women left them alone. “Hey,” Alexis

said with a smile. “This is wonderful, thank you.”

One finger tipped her chin up so he could kiss her. She tasted

like Lex and beer and the combination was amazing. “You are absolute-

ly stunning,” he whispered into her ear. “What are you trying to do to

me? Kill me?” His tongue licked along her ear. “Or are you just wanting

to make me jealous? It is killing me that they are staring at you.”

“They’re your friends. I doubt they are staring at me,” she said

with a shake of her head.

“Oh, trust me, they are staring. Especially Tag. I think you be-

witched him,” he grumbled, taking her beer from her and stealing a

swig.

“Help yourself,” came her sarcastic reply. “What do you care if

they are staring?” One blond eyebrow shot way up and she continued

before he could start his tirade. “I am going home with you. Unless

you’ve changed your mind.”

And she calms the savage beast.
He grinned a predatory grin. “Not

on your life, you are definitely coming home with me. Then you will

just be coming.” Still holding her beer in one of his hands he kissed her

again, bending her backwards as the kiss deepened.

“There is a bed downstairs if you two need to use it,” Terry’s

deep voice broke in.

Hot and bothered, they drew apart. With a wink Scott gave her

back her beer and swaggered off, leaving her sagging against the rail of

the ship. “Maybe later,” he said as he headed over to where the men

were still staring at her. “Y’all need to quit lookin’ at my woman,” Scott

growled.

They spent the afternoon swimming, diving, and just having

tons of all-around fun. Alexis was down in the main cabin attempting to

fix the side tie of her bikini bottom. Dropping the skimpy sarong over

the back of a chair, she froze as she heard the lock engage on the door.

Turning around, she came face to face with one very handsome man

named Scott. Her body prickled as his eyes moved over her nearly bare

body.

“Took you long enough to come down here,” he murmured as

his large body flowed effortlessly towards hers.

“What are you doing in here?” Alexis asked, her gaze taking in

his tanned muscular physique that was clothed solely in a pair of black

swimming trunks.

“Waiting for you,” he stated bluntly.

Her hands fell to the knot at the side of her bikini and she began

to retie it as she spoke. “Why were you waiting for me?”
Who cares? He

was waiting for you. YOU!

Suddenly his hands were there brushing hers away. “I’ll do it.”

He began to tie a knot for her. “I wanted to have you to myself for a

while. I’m tired of sharing you.”

Eyebrows raised, Alexis waited as he finished fixing her suit.

“Well, here I am.”

Hands settled around her ribcage, turning her body completely

towards his. “Yes, here you are.” He moved his gaze up and down her

toasted skin. “This suit is killing me. I’m walking around up there with

a hard-on because of this suit of yours.” His lower body showed her he

spoke the truth as he pressed it against her bare belly.

“Oh, so it’s my fault?” Her eyes sparkled as her fingers danced

across the skin on his arms.

“No one else on this boat can get this reaction from me.” His

hips bucked lightly against her.

“So, perhaps you were thinking of whoever can.” Alexis’ stone

grew sharp while her fingers stilled.

Scott shook his head. “Don’t overanalyze what I say, my sexy

healer. You are the only woman I can’t control myself around.” His

fingers brought her face around towards his from where she had been

glancing across the room.

“Does that include Stacey?” Her eyes were direct as they stared

into his.

He grinned. “Are you jealous of her?” His hands slid around the

back of her neck, untying the knot that kept up the material that cov-

ered, however barely, her full breasts.

“Yes,” she answered candidly.

The strings fell from her neck, exposing her naked torso to the

blond man before her. “Don’t be.” His callused hands cupped her

breasts, his thumbs moving over already tight nipples. “You are the

woman I want.” He lightly pinched her nipples. “The
only
woman I

want.”

Alexis’s back arched, pressing her breasts further into his wait-

ing hands, as a purr emerged from her mouth. “She’s in love.” Eyes

darkened by desire met Scott’s.

Without missing a beat he responded. “Too bad for her. I am

too. My heart has already been claimed by another.” His firm lips

latched onto one taut nipple, drawing it into the heat of his mouth.

Knees trembled at the contact. Alexis bit back a moan as her

hands pressed his head even tighter to her breast. “Does she know

that?” She fought to stay focused on her questions.

His captivating mouth moved from one breast to the other with

his tongue tracing the path between them. Dropping one hand, Scott

cupped her ass as his fingers slipped beneath the skimpy material to

caress her silken skin. “I don’t know and I will tell her, but later. I have

something else in mind right now.” His words vibrated her whole

nipple, sending wave after wave of electrical impulses through her

body.

Alexis didn’t care about anything else anymore. The man mak-

ing love to her with his mouth could make her forget everything. And

she did. Forgotten was the fact everyone knew where they were and

what they were doing, the fact she was destroying the dream of a young

woman. Everything except Scott and his magical touch on her licentious

body.

A young woman wiped away tears from her dark face as she left

her private room. By the time she reached the upstairs deck, there was

no evidence that she’d just been devastated by the man she had always

wanted to marry. That her lifelong fantasy had been shattered. Her

smiles were forced as she rejoined her father’s friends.

Scott laid them both down on the thick carpet, his mouth still

drawing heavily on her breast. The hand that had been on her firm butt

slid around to rest over the small, neatly trimmed patch of hair between

her legs.

Alexis couldn’t stay silent any longer and a seductive groan

filled the room. Her body ached for him. “Please,” she begged.

“What do you want, Lex?” His fingers parted the lips between

her legs as his mouth moved up her body to nibble at the corner of hers.

“Who does your body cry for?”

Lex. It makes me melt even more to hear him call me that.
“I want

you.” She panted as her body rose, trying to encourage his fingers to

penetrate. “I want to feel you inside me, Commander,” she babbled,

unable to think straight as his fingers moved over her mons with

feather-like touches. “I want you. Please, Scott.”

He drove two fingers home deep within her, capturing the

scream of passion she released in his own mouth. “I want you too, Lex.”

Scott rose up so he was on his knees, bringing her with him. His thick

fingers were still buried up to the knuckles within her.

The second she could, Alexis slid her hands into his pants,

wrapping her fingers around his hard penis. Her action garnered a

groan from Scott and his hips bucked, moving his erection through her

tight grip.

Their lips met as they knelt on the floor of the yacht, the motion

of the ocean adding its own push to their touches. Each rock of the boat

caused them both to shudder from the position of the other’s hand.

Alexis shifted her weight, causing them to fall backwards onto

the floor. She was on top and she ground down hard on his fingers,

enjoying the feel of him inside her to the fullest. Biting her lip, she rose

off his chest and removed his fingers from her body. Her dark hair

shook as she wordlessly told him no as he reached for her.

Grasping his shorts at the waist, Alexis slid off his body, bring-

ing them with her. Her hand tossed them aside to land away from

them. The hair on his legs brushed tantalizingly against her painfully

tight nipples as she moved up his legs to place her mouth over his

rampant erection.

Her tongue swirled over the swollen head, cleaning off the

drops of moisture that were present before she drew the whole thing

into her wet mouth. “Jesus, Lex!” he hissed to the room as his hips

jumped up off the carpet, driving more of his substantial length into her

waiting mouth.

Strong fingers circled around the base of his penis as her tongue

coated his manhood with her saliva. As she stroked him, her mouth

drew him into the warmth that sent him spiraling off towards an abyss.

His hands clenched into fists as he tried to control the desire flowing

freely in his blood.

Faster and harder she stroked, her mouth sucking unyieldingly

on the stiff erection. Scott moaned aloud to the room, letting his hands

sank into her thick hair, holding her in place as his hips began to buck

harder. “Lex, stop,” he begged.

Tiger eyes, heavy and sultry, drifted languidly up to meet his

gaze. Her hand stopped moving as she waited for him to speak, run-

ning her tongue all over the head of his cock. Alexis shook her head

slightly before sucking hard on the head without dropping his gaze. His

lower body jerked while her mouth slid back down on his erection,

taking more and more of it in.

Scott let go of her hair and sat up, looking down at the beautiful

woman dressed only in Wedgewood-blue bikini bottoms who was

giving him the blowjob of her life. His eyes kept fluttering closed as she

alternated her strokes and sucks just enough to keep him on the edge of

ejaculating but never allowing him to get there.

Without missing a beat, her free hand pushed on his chest, send-

ing him back to the floor. That free hand found and flicked against one

of his tight nipples, causing another tremor through his body.

Alexis kept him on the edge for a while longer. Scott seemed to

have long since lost the ability to think straight or clearly. His eyes were

squeezed closed as his hands had once again found their way into her

hair, holding her where she was quite content to be.

“Please let me come, Lex,” he groaned as she again drew him

away from the edge of fulfillment.

So she did. Her hand around the shaft of his cock tightened and

stroked him harder as her tongue teased the head. Finally, that hand fell

away and Alexis slid her mouth and throat down over his entire erec-

tion and lightly ran her nails across his scrotum. Scott came with a fury

and a shout.

Alexis moved back up his manhood and cleaned up any last re-

maining trace of his come with her tongue. Content with her job, she

crawled up his body and settled herself over his still hard penis, slip-

ping down until he was fully inside of her dripping wet body.

He rolled them over so she was on the bottom and he could
