"I... I wasn't expecting you at all," I managed to stammer, my voice betraying my surprise and unease.

A casual smirk played on Jacob's lips as he replied, "Neither was I." With a swift motion, he discarded his t-shirt, causing my jaw to drop in awe at the sight of his bare, sculpted torso. The sight alone was enough to make my heart skip a beat, and the tattoo that adorned his skin only added to his allure.

How could someone be so perfect?

"But surprisingly, a few minutes ago, as I observed you swimming, I discovered that I'm not the only one who decided to deviate from today's plans," he continued, descending the pool steps and immersing himself in the water.

This man was a walking Greek god. Well, if there were any Italian gods, he could be that too. Fuck, he could be any god he wanted! Heaven and hell, he could conjure both…into me.

Suddenly, my body seemed to ignite, the temperature soaring as my gaze remained locked with his. I struggled to find my breath, the intensity of his presence overwhelming.

It was an erotic sight, one that stirred a desire deep within me.

"Why didn't you go?" I managed to stutter, instinctively taking a few steps back as Jacob steadily approached, narrowing the distance between us.

A mischievous glint danced in his eyes as he replied, "Because I didn't want to." With each step he took, I found myself retreating until my back pressed against the edge of the pool.

The sight of him was erotic— Erotically pleasing.

"That's not a sufficient reason," I murmured, my voice dropping several octaves as he encased me, placing his hands on the pool's edge, effectively trapping me.

A soft chuckle escaped his lips as he leaned closer, his warm breath grazing my ear, causing a shiver to run down my spine. "What's your reason, may I ask?"

I swallowed hard, my voice barely a whisper as I confessed, "I... I had a hangover."

Jacob's lips brushed against my earlobe, "People only drink for two reasons, Evelyn," he murmured, the sensation sending a jolt through my body and I clenched my thighs together, "Either for pleasure or pain."

If I wasn't in the pool, surely my arousal could have proven to be enough of a good reason for my dampened panties.

"What is your reason?"

"Both." I unknowingly confessed and A smirk curved on his tempting lips, his eyes glinting with a knowing spark.

"I see. You appear rather stressed. Is there anything I can do to help you relax?"

That suggestive tone…..

Oh, dear lord.

Was this even real? Or was I caught in some weird sex dream?

"Well... I suppose helping me relax is probably the last thing on your mind," I retorted, my sarcasm acting as a defence mechanism against the rising tide of desire. "Since you always seem so keen on disrupting my peace."

A low, husky chuckle reverberated from his chest. And god forgive me! It was the sexiest sound I had ever heard. With him so near, the heat of his body enveloping me without even skin-to-skin contact, my thoughts spiralled into uncharted territory.

This man was a masterpiece—a work of art that I could stare at endlessly, without even a single blink.

"Trust me, Evelyn. If anyone's peace has been disturbed, it's mine," he asserted, his hand gliding to my lower hip beneath the water, teasingly brushing against my inner thighs. I sucked in a deep breath, determined to maintain unwavering eye contact despite the intoxicating sensations coursing through me.

"And that was from the day, I saw you for the first time after five years," His fingers slowly inched closer to my warm cleft, giving rise to the pace of my already troubled breathing, "You are the most irresistible lady I have ever come across, you make the need of a man to possess stir awake just with your innocent little movements. You make me want to forget my morals and dive deep into you….in many ways.”

It was still hard for me to believe that these were the words being spoken by Jacob Adriano himself.

He was the man who had consumed my thoughts, the one who awakened a fire within me like no other. And now, here he was, close enough to touch, saying the things I had always yearned to hear. It felt fucking tremendous.

"You, Evelyn," he whispered, bringing his hand back from under the water and this time brushing his fingers on my hardened nipple. "Have the power to unleash my darkest desires. Sometimes, I want you to become my downfall, to embrace the chaos and devour me whole. I want you to fucking ruin me.”

Well..of course, I hadn’t expected my nipples not to be hard and pressing against my bikini top when Jacob himself was this close to me and turning me on with each word that fell off of his sexy lips.

I was on the brink of losing it all. There was no sanity left within me, not even at any corner. Jacob’s presence had wiped off all of it.

"You are my temptation, Evelyn. And god, the things I wanna do to you!”

I had the perfect opportunity to stop there and pull him in for a kiss. But I wanted more than just a fleeting moment of passion. I wanted to shatter his self-imposed restraints and set free the wild inside him— The beast within.

Finally, I mustered the courage to break the silence. "You are all talk and no walk, Jacob!”

Unexpectedly, a smirk danced upon his lips instead of his jaw ticking with anger, catching me off guard.
