Justice For Juniper (Tatienne Richard) novel Chapter 124

“This is a lot of emotion over no more than a bay.” Adil teased them both as he moved to lean over the railing and look down the bank. “The orange trees smell good.”

“Oranges? Is that what I smell?” she asked curiously.

“Yes but they aren’t anywhere ready.” Phineas cut off her thoughts. “It’s too early in the year to pick them. They’d be bitter and sour.” He gave a huff. “Adil is right. He stinks. We need to get him to a shower, so he doesn’t make my orange trees die.”

Adil shoved Phineas and leaned closer to him, “you’re not smelling particularly sweet either.”

“I think we’re all a little smelly,” Juniper cut off the argument as Phineas started carrying her through to a set of stairs.

“Not you.” Adil said with a grin. “You always smell good to me. I’d lick your armpits even now.”

She met Phineas’ disgusted eyes with her nose scrunched up. “One of us has kinks I’m not willing to explore.”

“You let me lick your pussy but not your armpit?” Adil laughed as he bounded up the stairs ahead of them with far too much energy.

“Adil!” she looked around worriedly in case Lucia or others were around.

Beni chuckled at her face, “Sunshine, competent staff are meant to blend in with the woodwork, keep their mouths and opinions to themselves, and maintain discretion. Phineas employs the best of the best. We could take you right here on these stairs and they would make themselves scarce and nothing would ever be leaked anywhere.”

“Sure, but it doesn’t mean I want them to know the dirty details either. We will not be having sex on the stairs for the world to see.”

“Baby girl,” Adil grinned as Phineas reached him on the landing, “we will be having sex all over this place and you won’t even notice if anyone is around. The stairs, the terrace, the patio, probably in the kitchen, definitely on the beach.” He was listing things off on his fingers.

“Not once did he say a bed.” She rolled her eyes at his antics as Phineas carried her into a brightly lit and breezy bedroom. The windows were wide open and the salty and sweet smell of the water filled the air.

“Oh, this bed is going to make tons of new memories,” Adil threw himself backwards onto it and propped himself up on his elbow.

“Get your filthy body off the bed,” Beni growled at him. “If I need to sleep with you in a bed, it’s going to smell like Sunshine, not your sticky ass. Get up.”

Juniper watched as Beni and Adil grappled while Beni tried to pull him off the bed, complaining about the stench he was going to leave on the bed. Adil was grabbing one of the pillows he insisted was Beni’s and rubbing it over the front of his jeans while Beni was smacking furiously at him.

“Oh my god, I just got a vision of our future and its going to be squabbling teenage boys, isn’t it?”

The words fell from her lips before she could stop them and Beni and Adil both looked at her while Phineas’ chuckle rumbled against her.

Beni shook his head and kissed her cheek, “I’m not cranky. Just because I don’t want to sleep in a bed which reeks of Adil’s body odor doesn’t mean I’m cranky.”

She kissed his lips softly, “you’re pouting.”

“Because the shower isn’t big enough for three and so we’ll need to take turns, and Phineas is the one who grabbed you first. I wanted cuddles.”

She laughed at Beni’s words. “I will give you all the cuddles you want and for the record, he’s going to sweat in the bed later and sweat won’t be the only bodily fluid on the sheets and pillows considering how much Phineas likes to come all over my boobs.”

“She’s not wrong,” Phineas finished undressing Juniper and then reached into the shower to turn it on. “Now get out so I can clean our girl up and pamper her a bit before I personally feed her every single bite of her breakfast and then make her sleep curled up on me like a kitten.”

Beni grunted, “fine but I want cuddles with her before she falls asleep using you as a mattress.”

“Fine.”

Beni huffed and left the room grumbling under his breath. Juniper was pushed under the water and Phineas was right there with her. As he began to meticulously take care of her, Juniper decided there might not be anything better than being spoiled and coddled on a sunshine vacation.
