Chapter 33: After the Storm I wake up next morning without him by my side. Yet there’s a delicious smell of fresh brewed coffee and French Toast coming from the kitchen. I immediately get out of bed and head towards the kitchen.

Eason is standing in the kitchen, pouring coffee into the mug. There’s already two plates of ready French Toast on the counter with some fresh berries by the side and wiped cream on top.

“Oh my god.” I fake a shocking expression walking up towards him. “Did you make this? Maybe I was wrong about you being a useless rich brat.” His eyes light up immediately when he sees me, and he drags me into his arms. A soft kiss lands on my forehead. “It’s not too late to change your mind.” I giggle and tiptoe to kiss him back. He holds the back of my head with one hand, fingers threading into my hairs deepening the kiss, while he brings the other hand down past my waist and gently squeezes my ass. I immediately feel a familiar heat building between my thighs. He has the magic to turn me on so easily. “Hey,” he whispers in a hoarse and desire-filled tone. “What do you say we do something else before breakfast Suddenly, a voice comes from the back of us and makes us jerk apart: “Mr. Ramirez. Is there something else you need?”

I snap my head around and find a middle-age, very kind-looking woman standing beside the door, smiling at us. My cheeks instantly burn with embarrassment. I thought there’s only the two of us here! I’m only wearing his shirt and my bottom is naked.

Eason puts his fist besides his lips and clears his throat, “No we are good. Thank you, Brenda.”

“OK, let me know if you need anything else,” the woman smiles. “I’ve laid out some towels by the pool in case you want to take a swim. And there’s hand-squeezed lemonade and iced tea in the fridge. Oh and if you want to take a boat ride, I’ll call the crew and let them know.”

“OK thanks.”

“You are welcome, sir. And I hope you enjoy that French Toast before it gets cold.” She nods at us and then disappears behind the door.

I turn around and catch a fleeting embarrassment pass through Eason’s eyes.

“You said you made the French Toast!” I point a finger at him and yell. “You evil liar!”

He grins, “at least I made the coffee.”

He pulls me closer and tries to kiss me again, but I move back quickly.
