Chapter Ten

Kailani

“Jax. Are you ready? We’re going to be late,” I said as I entered my bungalow, glancing at my watch. “You need to be at the fitting in thirty minutes.”

I’d spent the morning getting most of the wedding guests settled with a quick break for lunch at a hole-in-the-wall place I loved after picking up my sister-in-law, Ani, from the airport. Now it was my duty to make sure all the groomsmen had their last fittings for their suits. Once that final task was complete, everyone could have a free night to do as they pleased before the wedding festivities commenced.

“Where the hell is he?” I muttered to myself and took the stairs leading to the bedroom. Jax had all but moved into my place since that day two weeks ago on the yacht.

We’d fallen back into the natural ease of living together, something that should have scared me. But it was an unexpected comfort, something I needed in my life, something I’d never had with anyone else but Jax.

As I made my way onto the landing, I noticed him leaning against the railing on the far end of the balcony. A grimness was etched on his face that could only have been put there by the arrival of Christopher and Jennine Burton.

Thad had volunteered to meet them and show them to their bungalow, and I’d jumped at the chance to avoid them, but I knew Jax had probably accompanied Thad. I could only imagine how it went. Most likely an hour filled with complaints and demands.

“Hey.” I moved in his direction. “Is everything okay?”

He turned to face me and then set his hands on my waist. “What’s your safeword?”

Goose bumps prickled my skin, and a low throb started in my core.

“You have a fitting. We don’t have time.”

“Already handled. Now I asked you a question.”

I stared into his stormy gray eyes, seeing the need there, reminding me so much of the times back in Vegas when he’d come home from his trips to Los Angeles. He’d tell me that my touch was the only thing to settle him when everything else went to hell.

“Little Bird.” I licked my lips, holding his gaze.

“You will use it if it goes beyond what you can handle. I need to trust you, just as you have to trust me.”

I understood why he was saying this to me. Long ago, when we’d first become a committed couple, I’d refused to say my safeword and wanted to go further, but he’d known I’d reached my limit and stopped. It had been one of our first major arguments. After that day, I never allowed myself to push beyond my limit, and I honestly communicated how I was feeling during a scene.

“Yes, Jax. I promise to use it if it becomes too much.”

As if accepting my words, he nodded and then released my waist and stepped back to lean against a pillar. “Strip.”

“Here? Where any of my nosy family could see us if they came by?”

“No one will come.
