CHAPTER 28

When Sam pulled up to the sprawling tropical resort, its low white buildings scattered amongst swaying palm trees and half-hidden behind lush vegetation, they were an hour behind schedule, thanks to traffic. Being late would normally have annoyed her, but the ride with Natalia had been surprisingly pleasant.

After having accidentally stumbled on the topic of Natalia’s family — a subject Samantha wanted to broach again but not on this trip — they’d recovered with chitchat about travel and restaurants and art. Sam almost wished the ride was longer. That she didn’t have to share Natalia just when she was starting to let her mask slip.

The valet opened Sam’s door, a warm, salty breeze enveloping them as soon as she stepped outside the car. She strode around to open Natalia’s door, earning an eye roll even as Natalia accepted her outstretched hand.

Skin soft and touch electric, Sam wanted to hang on a little longer, but Natalia let her go when they started up the paved path lined with colorful hibiscus and bright birds of paradise.

Arriving in the open-air lobby, all exposed beams and clean, white plaster walls, they were greeted with complimentary drinks. Pink and orange rum concoctions with turquoise paper umbrellas.

While Sam sipped hers, she couldn’t help but notice Natalia slurping hers down. She was chugging like it was going to self-destruct if she didn’t get to the bottom in four pulls from her straw.

Is she nervous? Sam couldn’t imagine that was true. There was no way a woman with the most intimidating neutral expression was nervous about meeting her silly little family.

When Natalia finished her drink before they’d checked in, Sam handed her hers. Expecting Natalia to bat it away, Sam was surprised when she took it and guzzled it down.

“You know this isn’t MTV’s Spring Break, right?” Sam laughed, leaning against the reception counter. “It’s just a pack of unruly Cubans. We don’t have to pre-party.”

Natalia cut her with a glare and left her to finish registration on her own. Sam chuckled. The Great Natalia Flores was actually nervous. The realization was a tingle in Sam’s chest. It had to be a sign that she wasn’t only interested in sex, despite her protestations.

Key cards in hand, the poor kid tasked with pushing a luggage cart full of Titanic-worthy steam trunks followed them outside. Natalia was trying to look aloof, but Samantha caught her gaze lingering on the lush tropical foliage and sparkling glimpses of the ocean between palm fronds.

Satisfied that Natalia was pleased with her selection, Sam pointed to their destination. Their villa sat nestled between swaying sea grape trees, the rocky coastline visible through the vegetation. Natalia stepped inside first, heels echoing on gleaming hardwood floors.

The spacious room — with its glass doors along one wall, granting a panoramic ocean view — was stunning. Even more impressive than the website photos.

Natalia glanced at the single king-sized bed behind an open door before sparing Sam an inscrutable glance. She sauntered toward the living room — and its ocean backdrop — with the poised and deliberate elegance of a Siamese cat.
