Trish Morey - Australia - Gorgeous Grooms

‘A reaffirmation of your marriage vows,’ Angelina declared with enthusiasm. ‘All that is required will be the documented proof the marriage has already taken place.’ Her eyes sparkled. ‘There will be guests … a party.’ She paused for a few seconds. ‘Afterwards you will take Alesha to the island for a few days,’ she concluded.

Oh, my. The light touch of Loukas’ hand on her thigh caused her to look at him askance.

‘A charming idea.’ His eyes speared her own. ‘Alesha?’

That was right … throw the ball into her court! Like she was going to refuse? ‘Charming,’ she agreed. In a moment of inspiration she turned towards Lexi. ‘I’d love it for you to be my attendant.’

‘Done,’ Loukas’ sister concurred with delight. ‘Which means I get to join in the shopping expedition.’

‘It will be my pleasure. My gift to you both.’ Constantine beamed as he sank back in his chair. ‘And now we shall adjourn to the lounge and Angelina will bring the coffee.’

It was almost midnight when Loukas summoned Cristos and they took their leave.

Alesha settled into the rear seat of the limousine as Loukas joined her, and she sat in reflective silence as Cristos traversed the driveway.

Loukas reached for her hand and brought it to his lips. ‘You managed very well.’

His features appeared as shadowed angles in the evening’s darkness, illuminated by passing street-lighting and the beam of oncoming traffic.

‘Your aunt is a lioness.’

‘Yet beneath the surface lies the heart of a pussycat.’

‘You’re kidding me?’

‘You’re now part of the Andreou family. One Daria guards with her life. You will discover she is generous to a fault,’ he relayed quietly. ‘And very caring towards those who earn her trust.’

‘You could have warned me what to expect.’

‘Perhaps,’ Loukas conceded. ‘But would it have made any difference?’

No. For how could she have disappointed his parents, Lexi … Daria, even, if she’d indicated a reaffirmation of her wedding vows was too much to ask?

‘So we get to do it … when?’

‘I imagine my mother and Daria already have the details in hand.’

Alesha didn’t doubt it for a moment.

Sleep didn’t come easily, and she sighed a little as Loukas drew her close and brushed his lips to her temple. ‘You want me to help you sleep?’

‘Depends what you have in mind,’ she managed in a voice husky with tiredness.

‘If I promise to do all the work?’

‘Uh-huh.’

‘I assume that’s a yes ?’

His light teasing held a sensuality that warmed her blood and sent it pulsing through her body. ‘What are you waiting for?’

A faint chuckle emerged from his throat as he sought the softly beating pulse at the edge of her neck, savoured a little, then his lips trailed a path to her breast, suckled there, and moved low to create the sort of sensual havoc that demanded release … hers, by him.

He gifted it to her, eventually, and caught her as she climaxed. Then he held her for what remained of the night, sleeping as she slept until dawn crept over the horizon and gave birth to a new day.
