CHAPTER ELEVEN

“LAINA.”

“James. Wow. Hi.”

As they stared at each other across the sand, Laina tried to dislodge the hot bud of desire that bloomed in her clit. God, but she couldn’t wait for this week to be over, because seeing him without being able to touch him was pure agony. She’d come to the beach this morning specifically to avoid him, but she hadn’t even gotten as far as the water when she’d heard him call her name. And now she was staring down at him, sitting on a lounge chair with his iPad in his hands and his red-hot body on full torturous display. She tried to keep her eyes from roving over his muscular arms, the abs that had clenched with each thrust into her, that ruinous bulge in his swimming trunks—

Stop it already. It’s over.

James got to his feet. “I was hoping to run into you,” he said.

“Were you? It’s kind of early for the beach, but I like to get here before it’s too hot,” Laina babbled over the pounding of her heart. “I was actually going to go for a swim in my pool, but it’s full of flowers.” She clamped her mouth shut. God, she really wasn’t any good at this. Not only was she completely undone by the sight of this man, she’d also just revealed that she was attached to the wedding location. Not that it mattered now—they were over, and whether he knew her family was worth a fortune or not really made no difference.

But James didn’t seem to have caught her slipup. “I missed you at dinner last night. And at breakfast this morning.”

Laina licked her lips. Her mouth was cotton dry. “I guess I wasn’t hungry.”

“Neither was I.”

“No?” She cringed; couldn’t she think of anything intelligent to say? She crossed her arms over her chest, suddenly aware of her near-nakedness. Did he still want her? And so what if he did? It wasn’t like she could act on it anymore, even if she could feel that aching buzz in her body again just from standing near him. “So what did you want?”

“Want?”

“You said you were hoping to run into me,” she reminded him, shifting her weight. God, she was a mess—she wanted to run away from him, she wanted to clamp his hand to her pussy and beg him to lock her up in his room. No commitment after that, just three more days of hot, blissful sex.

Which would ruin her even worse than she already was.

“Oh, yeah.” He took a step closer to her. “I wanted to ask you something.”

“So did I.”

“Really?” His face lit up a bit. “Okay, you first.”

She drew herself up. “Do you ever lose sleep over your developments?”

He blinked at her. “My developments?”

“Yeah. I took a look at them, and I wasn’t impressed.”

“You weren’t?” He tilted his head at her. “But I get my designers to take their cues from nature. I’d think that would appeal to you. A lot of the buildings practically blend in with their—”

“Yes, I noticed that.
