Finishing the third chapter, she laid the book down on a colorful beach blanket and added sunblock to her bronzing body. She then drew deeply from the straw that extended from an insulated mug. After glancing up and down the beach, she paused to look across the wave tops before picking the novel back up.
He seemed to appear from nowhere, having strolled down the beach with the rising sun at his back. His broad shoulders blocked out the sun, but could not diminish the brilliant aura that burned around him. Walking straight to her, he offered a hand and lifted her to her feet. At well over six feet tall, his tawny frame towered above the others that frolicked on the beach and in the water. His chest and arms might have been carved from a massive oak tree, unyielding by nature yet supple when so directed.
Impossibly sculpted abs were separated from muscular thighs by trim hip s, while his uncommonly ample buttocks threatened to breach the protesting leopard patterned brief. This was a man that took athleticism to the next level. No sacrifice had been too great while he had built and maintained his body as others might dote over a classic automobile. A blind woman would surely require several days to explore every ripple of his body.
A constant tropical sun had bleached the unruly mass of golden curls that framed his silver-blue eyes. Perhaps burning ice could rival the gems that God alone must have set above the stone-carved lines of his jaw. His devastating smile was fashioned from lips that were almost too full. There had to be a blemish, but find it she had not.
He held her close, luxuriating in the moment before pulling back just a bit. They gazed upon one another, half smiles set beneath smoldering eyes. He looked to her strawberry lips and then back into her eyes, peering to the very depths of her soul. His lips sought hers and together they melded, tongues jousting in a passionate duel. Her hair spilled between fingers on one hand, while his other smoothed the small of her back on its journey lower. His fingers spread to fondle her bottom, confidently pulling her to him. She could feel his excitement as their hips met. Knowing that they would not contain their desire, they broke the embrace long enough to gather her blanket and cooler. Two quick skips, and the trotted off hand in hand.
Not far from this white sandy beach, she knew of a hidden cove into which few, if any would think to explore. They hurried on a few minutes further, leaving all traces of civilization behind. The sun was climbing to its mid-day peak as gulls and waterfowl soared overhead. Waves crashed onto the shore, releasing their salts to season the warm island breeze. Nature ruled this moment, flooding them with the beast of her touch, her sights, sounds and her desires.
Upon reaching the secluded cove, they embraced once more. Hidden by towering rock formations, only the sounds of the pounding surf and the wild birds of the rain forest could reach them as they inhabited their own private island within the island. It was a world for them alone. Holding her face softly with both hands, he pecked kisses upon her nose, her forehead and lips. Fighting the urge to speed ahead and ravage each other with lust, the lovers drank slowly form each other's passion. A lone cloud spied from the clear blue sky as they twisted down to the blanket that they had spread upon the warm tropical sand.
Their meager beach attire nearly shed itself as the lovers rolled together in the shade of the larges boulders. Urging her to her back, he began trailing kisses down her neck. Then kneeling above her, he fondled her breasts, ignoring her nipples as they grew with excitement. He continued to plant the butterfly kisses. Here, and there, and then upon her breast. Circling her breasts with warm kisses, he teased her. In responses, she involuntarily arched her back, hoping to bring him closer. And then as if answering her plea, he accepted the nipple, gently massaging with only his lips. Moving across, he acknowledged her other nipple while his roving hands rediscovered the curves of her body.
