The thought
of Jaime moving to Los Angeles both unnerved and thrilled me. “Won’t you be
lonely living all the way out here in a big house all by yourself?”

He remained
silent for a long time, staring out to the Pacific. Then, without warning, he
spun me around so that we were face-to-face, just a breath apart. He lifted his
sunglasses on top of his head, and his eyes, the color of the late afternoon
sea, gazed deep into mine. My heart hammered as he tipped up my chin.

“I don’t

My heart
pounded. My voice abandoned me. Words were trapped in my throat.

“Gloria,
I’ve never had a relationship before. I’ve fucked a lot of women, but none of
them has meant a thing to me. They’re just mindless, faceless fucks. You’re
different, angel. I can never get your face out of my head. When I’m away from
you, all I want is to be with you. And when I’m with you, I can’t get enough of
you. I want to breathe the air you breathe and kiss the ground you walk on. I
want to go to sleep with you in my arms and wake up to you on my chest. And I
want to fuck you every way I know how. Make you fall apart and then put you
back together. Over and over. There will never be enough ways to show you how I
feel about you. Or words to tell you.”

He paused
and inhaled deeply. My blood was ringing in my ears as he exhaled and softly
said, “Gloria, you make me fall apart too.”

This was
all too much for me. My emotions were in turmoil, and my mind was in meltdown.
I gripped his shoulders before my knees gave out. Tears were forming in my
eyes… and at last words. “Jaime, are you saying you want a real relationship
with me?” You love me?

He
nervously played with my braid. “Yeah, angel, that’s what I’m trying to say. I
guess it’s not my best pitch. I don’t do relationships well.”

My mind was
spinning and my heart was thudding. Jesus Christ. Was I ready for a
relationship with this beautiful, romantic, sexy god? Could I handle it? The
timing couldn’t be worse with the stock crisis and my job at stake. It might
work. It might not. And there was still the long distance factor to deal with.
Skyping sex did not make for a relationship. Was I just setting myself up to
get hurt? He had a fucked a lot of women. And I was just one of them. I mean,
he hadn’t said he loved me. And hell, I’d only known him for a little over a
week though it felt like a lifetime.

Jaime’s
sultry voice brought my mental ramblings to a halt. He tugged on my braid.
“Come on, angel. The suspense is fucking killing me.”

If only I
could consult Madame Paulette. I pondered—what would she say? Her husky voice
sounded in my head. “Ma chérie, no risque no gain…It eez
better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.” Her last words
to me whirled around my head. Come on, who was I fooling? I was madly in love
with this man. I wanted him more than he wanted me. I had to take a chance,
regardless of the consequences.

“Yes,” I

Cupping my
face, he cut me off. “Gloria, there’s only one rule. Don’t ever leave me. The
rest are meant to be broken.” On the loud crash of a wave, his lips crashed
onto mine. Every part of me melted into him as he wrapped me in his arms and
claimed my mouth with his. Oh, the power of a kiss! The power of this man!
Nothing else existed. Our tongues twirled and swirled, dancing in unison to the
music of the sea. His hard body pressed into mine, arousing every erotic fiber
of my being.
