I stood up from putting clean dishes away in the low cupboard, my eyes closed as I stretched out the tired muscles in my back. I needed a break. Some time by myself to think about everything. Now I was no longer looking for revenge on Seth, but actually feeling a strong attraction to him, I was confused and a little lost. And I didn’t think I had any chance of tempting him away from that Mia. When I opened my eyes again, though, there he was, his hair tousled and his shirt undone, standing before me.
“I don’t fucking care if you are off limits!” he spat and crossed the distance between us in two strides.
“Oh, thank God,” I yelled.
I gasped as he lifted me clean off the floor and parked my butt on the kitchen counter. His strength and passion thrilled me as I threw my arms around his neck and pulled his mouth onto mine. We’d finally kissed hard enough for our teeth to clash, and I crossed my legs behind his butt to pull his crotch hard against my suddenly throbbing sex. His tongue licked and probed the inside of my mouth furiously, and I found myself wishing he was using it all over the rest of my body, too. Oh, my God! I thought, how could I have thought about hurting this man? I could feel the length of him hard against the underwear that was pulled tight over my pussy and, with minimal movements, I was able to grind myself roughly against his firm cock, sending small spasms of pleasure through my whole body and drawing short, sharp gasps from him.
I didn’t want him to hold back. I wanted him to fuck me, right there, as hard and fast as he could. He must have been able to sense my desire because, with both hands, he suddenly seized and ripped open my black dress shirt, then pushed up my bra, freeing my willing, aching breasts for his big hands to paw and grope.
Without breaking the kiss, I reached down and yanked open his pants. They fell silently to the floor and, at last, I was able to grasp, two-handed, his rock-hard dick and pull it closer to me. Seth’s lips pulled away from mine, let out a long groan, before forcing me backward so he could bite and suck at my eager tits and hardening nipples. My pussy felt so wet I was sure I must be dripping through my underwear. Reading my mind, Seth urgently yanked my thong to one side, exposing me to him. Still holding his throbbing member in both hands, I guided the point of him impatiently toward my slick hole.
I felt him slide across my soft, wet lips, holding the promise of the ecstatic, hard heat he was about to fill me with. “I haven’t been able to stop thinking about you since we met,” he murmured breathlessly, his grey-green eyes looking deep into mine.
“I knew it!” came a playfully high voice from beside us.
Shocked, I turned to see Sofia leaning against the wall, giving us a slow, mock applause.
How does she do that? I thought automatically. The soft-footed, quietly-spoken second deckhand was notorious for appearing from nowhere, as if by magic.
We sprang apart and tried to cover ourselves, Seth cursing as he fought to pull up his pants around his still-hard dick. I went to say something, but the tiny, silent girl vanished down the hallway without a word.
“Goddammit!” I swore. “You know she’s off to tell the captain, and probably Mia too.”
“And so, Valentina,” muttered Seth.
“Huh?”
“Nothing,” he replied. “And, so what? It’s no big deal, we’re consenting adults.”
“But I’ll be fired,” I made it a statement.
“I guess,” Seth agreed. “Well, what do you say? Ready to weather a shit-storm with me?
I caught myself smiling. I want to be with him, but that’s mostly my pussy talking. He could take care of me, we could be together but, somehow, I’m sure that’s not what he came aboard this boat looking for. It’s sure not what I came to this boat looking for. This was just too fast. “This is just too fast, Seth,” I said aloud.
He saw the smile drop away from my face. “What do you mean?”
“I mean we have some stuff to deal with. Different things. And we’re from two different worlds,”
“I don’t care about that,” he growled.
“Right now, you don’t.” I put my hand against his cheek. I could feel tears welling in my eyes. “Can you be sure you’ll feel that way in the morning?” He went to speak, but I silenced him with a kiss. “I’m going my way,” I told him. “You go yours. If this is meant to be, our paths will cross again.”
I turned and ran off toward the crew levels. I didn’t look back.
