Reno stilled her hand, warring for a second to keep from pushing it lower. With every ounce of restraint he could muster he pulled her hand away. “I rinsed out our suits and showered earlier while you slept.”

“Oh.” She dropped her gaze and stepped away. He clicked on the emergency flashlight he had found and left on the counter, then lit the candles he had gathered to light the room. In their glow he noted her skin was no longer pale. She had recovered from the time in the water. The pink that tinted her body now made his gut clench and his blood surge. He wanted to pull her back into his arms, tell her how much he wanted to join her, but fisted his hands instead.

“There are towels in here,” he rasped, his voice stuck in his throat, and opened the closet, grabbing one. He wrapped it around his waist tightly, wrapped his erection to his belly, restricting it, restricting himself. He picked up the flashlight and backed out. “I’ll be in the kitchen. I’m going to see if I can scare up some food.”

She nodded in response. “I can’t wait to get this saltwater out of my hair.” She picked up the bottle of shampoo and sniffed it before turning on the water.

“Enjoy.” He forced a smile.

He knew there was no hiding his attraction from her. He had never been so hard in his entire life. His arousal pulsed through every cell, roared in his ears. If the feel of her slick, moist heat teasing his cock while he held her hadn’t told him she wanted him too, the offer she just made cleared all doubt. But it was an offer he couldn’t accept although his ability to remember this was wearing very thin. He should have never climbed back down next to her, he should have gone to the couch like he’d planned. But then he saw her awake, saw her fire-lit, emerald eyes moving over him…

He concentrated on steadying his breathing, his heart rate, and made his way through the dark hall to the kitchen. He needed to get some distance between them, needed to regain his focus. Back at the compound he could relieve the frustration a day in her company caused on a friendly local woman in the nearby village. Here there was nowhere to go. And now that he had actually seen her, felt her softness, her wet heat, the temptation was worse.

The sound of running water gave him images of it flowing over her naked body, of her hands lathering the soap on her skin, working the shampoo into her hair…

“Damn it!” He growled, slamming his hand into the wall. Glasses in the adjacent cabinets rattled. Pain from his abraded skin burned in protest. He focused on it.

Reno shined the light around the kitchen wondering what kind of nonperishables wealthy people might store in their island getaway. Candles seemed to be in abundance. He found boxes of matches in a canister next to the stove and dispersed candles on the counters.
