Billionaire on Board
suitable."
    He smiled his heart stopping smile. "I don't care what kind of sex it is, as long as we're going to have it."
    The lift door opened and we stepped into the suite.
    "Before I do anything, I'll take a shower." I removed my earrings and my bracelet and carried Lilly's gift into the bedroom.
    "May I join you?"
    "Is the shower large enough for both of us?"
    "It's large enough for you, me and Lakshmi."
    "They'd never let her in there. It would ruin her leather seats."
     
    The shower was large enough for a football team. 
    We silently stood beneath the rainforest head and I let my fingers roam across Ryan's chest. It was wonderfully hard. I leaned my forehead against it and he rested his chin on my head. His hands ran up and down my arms, my back and onto my buttocks where they remained.
    I licked a few drops from his skin.
    "You're salty."
    "Hm hm hm…"
    I pushed myself away from him and looked into his eyes.
    "Well, Mr. Corvera-Fabergé, did you have a pleasant evening?"
    "Yes, I did. But I presume it's going to get better still."
    I dropped to my knees. "You presume rightly."
    His eyes went round. "Do you mean, you're going to—"
    "Suck your dick?"
    "Well, actually I was going to say fell—"
    "Only if you'll never say that word again."
    He leaned his head against the wall and closed his eyes. "Never."

    "Holy shit, did you learn that at yoga?"
    I climbed off him and collapsed onto the bed where I remained, limp as a rag. I panted heavily. "No. It was a spur of the moment invention." 
    "Uh."
    I panted some more. "If anything, it was a variation of the tortoise pose."
     
    Our conversation momentarily died. 
    Nothing moved. Only our ribcages heaved.
     
    After a minute he sat up and reached for his water bottle. "My turtles at home don't do anything of the sort."
    By then, my breathing had calmed down and my brain was rebooting into cognitive mode. "You have turtles at home?"
    "Yes."
    "On Pink Pebble Cay?"
    He gulped down half the bottle. "You remembered the name."
    "Of course."
    He held out the bottle to me. "Want some?"
    "Yes." I drank. 
    "They nest on the beach from February to July and we really have to be careful when they come. Someone has to check the island every day and mark the nests."
    "Are they cute?"
    He raised his eyebrows. "Almost as cute as you are. You're especially cute when you're in the tortoise pose. You do something funny with your nose."
    "Do I? What do I do?"
    "You wrinkle it."
    "Aha." I had never been told I wrinkled my nose during sex. 
    "It's enchanting."
    "Interesting. Right, never mind. — What's it like, Pink Pebble Cay?"
    "It's small. Forty-five acres which to you would be about eighteen hectares, I think. It has two white beaches, one in the north and one in the south and a hill to the east which breaks off in a steep cliff. As for buildings, there's the main house and the three guest cottages. The house rests on top of the cliff. It's kind of spectacular."
    "It certainly sounds it. How did you come to live on an island anyway? Did you buy it?"
    He perched himself onto an elbow and looked down at me. "I don't really live there, I mean, I wish I could live there, at least outside the hurricane season."
    "But you have to go to London and New York all the time."
    "Yes, and Tokyo. By the way, what time is it?"
    "1.45. You still have 45 minutes."
    "Until what?"
    "You have to call Shiro."
    One corner of his mouth went up. "Did you eavesdrop?!"
    "About five seconds then I fell asleep."
    "I see. Right. To answer your question, no, I did not buy Pink Pebble Cay. I inherited it. It was part of my grandfather's estate."
    "What did he do?"
    "He was the Duke of Heresford."
    "Oh, I see." 
     
    The Heresford heirs were, behind some Russians and a few Indians, the richest family in Great Britain. I had never known Laetitia to be one of them. 
    Did she have bodyguards back in school, I wondered? Where were they when she had given head to the rugby team?
