Jesus.
I stand under the spray in the wet room off my suite and let the torrent of water consume me.
Iâm here, in my favourite place on earth. Iâve shared this home with two of my three wives and all four of my kids. Iâve entertained God knows how many dozens of friends and business associates over the decade or so Iâve been fortunate enough to own it. Iâve eaten and drunk and partied and skinny dipped and fucked and wept and slept and held tense, silent vigils here.
This house has held me at my lowest lows. Itâs been my monastery and my sanctuary, my very own Alchemy, and my childrenâs playground.
And it has never hummed with magic, with potential, like it has this past twenty minutes since I helped Genevieve off the helicopter and over my threshold.
Fuck me.
Sheâs handled this latest ambush far more graciously than I feared she might. I was pretty fucking nervous, actually. Not that Iâd ever show her that. I was counting on La Perle du Cap, my beautiful villa, doing most of the heavy lifting for me, and my faith was vindicated. She was clearly enchanted as soon as she laid eyes on it, but she had no idea how enchanting her enchantment was.
When sheâs armed up and ready to fight, sheâs the best, most intoxicating kind of challenge. But when sheâs soft and delighted and lets that armour slip, sheâs dangerous, because sheâs irresistible.
Iâm so tempted to wrap my hand around my cock and take the edge off, but I deny myself.
Because the edge is what makes me me.
It makes me hungry, and determined, and relentless.
Ergo, it makes me far more likely to get what I want.
And I know what I want.
Instead, I wash my hair and body thoroughly under the cool spray and dress in white shorts and a navy linen shirt. I leave the top couple of buttons undone and roll the sleeves up, pausing before opening the top drawer next to my bed and sliding a single foil-wrapped condom into my shorts pocket.
Some stupid fuckers would say this kind of behaviour is tempting fate.
I wholeheartedly disagree.
Iâm manifesting. Iâm putting my desire for this evening out into the universe, and thatâs worked often enough for me in the past.
I rake a hand through my damp hair as I exit my suite and risk a glance at Genevieveâs double doors.
Still firmly closed.
I hope she enjoys her brief reprieve in her room, because, if I have my way, itâll be the only time she spends in there.
I pad barefoot downstairs, revelling in the simple pleasure of being in my favourite of all my residences. Of cool stone underfoot and sea breezes wafting in. Of the scent of rosemary and garlic and thyme and lemon coming from the kitchen.
A quick detour in that very direction provides me with a verbose and noisy greeting from my chef, Jean-Jacques, a great hulk of a man who bestows a wet, delighted kiss on each of my cheeks, slaps
