kick. I’ll have to be careful and not drink too much of this,” she said.
“Drink your fill. You’re in good hands here,” he said casually.
“Are you trying to get me drunk?” she accused.
“Why would I do that?” he asked with a raised eyebrow.
“Why else? To make me pliable and agreeable?” she suggested.
Whit leaned forward to whisper in her ear.
“I don’t need champagne to bend you to my will. A simple touch can do that,” he murmured.
Whit slid his forefinger between her thighs and along her crotch. Maddie gasped.
“Whit!”
“Point made,” he said confidently.
“Behave,” she warned.
“I’m just being me,” he shrugged. “Did you know there is a bedroom on board? It’s quite convenient when traveling long distances and I want to sleep. You may certainly make use of it.”
“A bedroom on a plane?” Maddie was astonished.
Whit stood up.
“Come. I’ll show you,” he offered.
He grasped her hand and pulled her out of her seat. They moved to the back of the plane where there were two doors. He gestured to one of them.
“The bathroom,” he explained. He then opened the other door. “And the bedroom.”
He allowed Maddie to enter. The room was larger than one might expect of a bedroom on a plane. It had a dresser, a small closet, a recliner and a king sized bed. There was also a door that led to a small bathroom. Maddie circled the room in wonder.
“This is amazing,” she exclaimed.
Whit closed and locked the door. He then moved to stand behind her and pulled her close against him.
“It’s a very long trip. You can take a nap if you like. Or you could become a member of the Mile High club,” he murmured.
He bent to kiss her neck. Maddie could feel his erection; insistent and throbbing.
“We can’t. What about Danny?” she whispered.
“Danny is a smart guy. He will know where we are and won’t disturb us,” he said.
“But will I be able to face him afterward?” she muttered.
“We are two consenting adults living in the twenty-first century. Besides, Danny has figured out that we are lovers. It’s not hard to tell,” he said.
“Great!” she muttered.
“I didn’t know we were hiding it,” he said.
“We’re not. Not really. I just haven’t spoken about it to anyone,” she returned.
“It’s not a big deal, Maddie. Let me make you forget all about Danny,” he said persuasively.
Maddie pulled away from him and turned to stare into his incredible blue eyes. She knew that she could deny him nothing when looking into those orbs. She lifted herself on her toes and looped her arms about his neck. She pulled his head down and kissed him. That was all Whit needed. He took the lead by picking her up and depositing her onto the huge bed. He came down upon her and caressed every inch of her.
“You can scream your head off and no one will hear. I made sure these walls were soundproof,” he grinned.
“That’s a very good thing,” she panted.
Maddie pulled his mouth back to hers and they began a wild dance among the clouds. In seconds Whit had removed her clothing and was nestled between her thighs enjoying the taste of her. Surprisingly Whit had never used this room for anything but sleeping. Few women had been aboard his plane and the ones who had were never invited to the bedroom, much to their chagrin. Whit realized that he’d been saving this moment for someone special and that woman was Maddie. He accepted that he had developed deep feelings for Madison, feelings he’d thought he would never have. But they were bigger than life and he had to admit that they scared him. They caused him want to do things to please her. He would do almost anything to see that beautiful smile on Maddie’s face. And that in and of itself made him pause. He had never much cared about making someone else happy. He didn’t try to make anyone unhappy, but he simply didn’t care one way or the other. That indifference had changed the moment he’d met Maddie
