ZainZain traced a finger over her cheekbone, along her jawline, and then gently cupped her neck with his hand, looking into her eyes. “Tell me.”Her breath quickened, and he knew her resolve was waning. “That’s not fair.”“What?” he asked, his voice low.“You’re using coercion,” Jasmine breathed.Then a broad smile spread across his lips. “Is it working?”Jasmine sighed, and her face suddenly fell. She pushed abruptly away and started backing off. “I’m going home. See you later.” Hot, angry tears began filling her eyes, threatening to spill over as she turned around and hurried away.Zain stood there watching her, stunned beyond all words. Then it hit him. She thought he was playing her. “Jasmine!” He ran after her and caught her arm, quickly turning her around, his eyes filled with shock. “Jasmine, I was only kidding around. I’m so sorry. I’m not a player. I swear.” He reached up to catch a stray tear from under her eye, but she turned away. “Hey, hey!” He looked directly into her e

JasmineJasmine held Zain for a long while in the water as the waves washed over them and then gave him another passionate kiss.His lips moved to the tender skin right under her jaw. “Ready to get something to eat?”She laughed, thinking of the adage: the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach... and almost-sex. “Yeah. I am.”“Are you okay?” he asked, moving a strand of hair away from her face.She nodded. “I’m fine. You?”He cocked his head to the side. “Yeah. I’m fine.”Then Jasmine thought of something. “Are you going to think differently of me now?”Zain held her close, looking deeply into her eyes. “Never.” Then a crease formed between his eyes. “Do you think differently of me?”Jasmine smiled, shaking her head. “No. Never.”She didn’t want to scare him, but at that moment, she knew it would never be over between them. Jasmine gave him another passionate kiss, her legs still wrapped around his exquisite, naked body, committing every moment to memory. Then she released him,

ZainZain turned on the engine and listened as his truck roared to life, knowing he had to get out of there. He turned down the street, thinking of Jasmine. Even though he hadn’t told her that he loved her yet, he did. And somehow, he knew she felt the same.But then again, he had just taught her how to kiss and had given her a taste of love. Zain knew she had a lot more firsts yet to go. He had dated and been with other women before her, but he wanted Jasmine to be his last. Although he was glad that he was the first man she kissed and the first man to give her an orgasm, he wanted to be her first with everything. But she was young and had a lot more life to experience before she settled down... and he didn’t want her to miss out on it because he had taken it from her... robbed her of it. He would never do that to her.But no matter how she felt about him, he loved her, and he would wait until she was ready... if she wanted him.As Zain drove toward the batting cages, he thought of a

JasmineBecause she didn’t see Zain the day before, Jasmine woke early the next morning and dressed in a bikini, threw on a shorts set and sandals, and was out the door at sunrise.When she walked out, she thought she would have to wait for a while before she saw Zain, but when she looked down the beach, there he was, walking toward her a distance away. Unable to help herself, she ran toward him, and he swept her into his arms and pressed his lips to hers in a passionate, hungry kiss.“Where’s your board?” she asked, looking around when she came up for air.He shook his head, running his fingers through his hair. “Let’s get out of here... go somewhere.”She placed her hand on his cheek as she looked into his eyes. “Zain, what’s wrong?”He shook his head as one corner of his lips curled into a sexy smile. “Nothing. Let’s just get out of here today. Okay?”“Yeah, sure.” A worried look colored her eyes. “I was just out for a walk. My board is still in the house. Let me get my purse, and

JasmineZain pushed against her, his cock rocking against her pleasure spot as his tongue darted into her mouth, sweeping over her tongue as passion filled them both.“Zain....”“Come for me, baby,” he breathed, pushing against her. “I promise I won’t take it too far.”Jasmine deepened the kiss as she melted into his arms, rubbing against his cock through his pants. “Let me know if someone comes up here.”“No one will,” he said, holding her tightly. Then his lips descended upon hers again as he rubbed against her, knowing just the right spot.Her hips bucked against him as she deepened the kiss, moaning softly into his mouth. Then her walls clenched as she tipped over the edge. “Will you come, too?”“I think so, but it’s okay. You don’t have to,” he whispered, moaning as his tongue darted into her mouth, swiping over hers.Jasmine moved her hips, rubbing against his cock as she kissed him deeply, running her hands down his back, and then squeezed his butt. “Come for me, baby.”Zain he
