Stark After Dark (2016)
“He is a huge man, his coffee-colored skin slick with sweat. His smile flashes a hint of gold as he helps me from the boat to the unstable, floating dock that shifts beneath me as I step onto the weathered wood.
Damien follows, then pauses long enough to pay the man and thank him for bringing us over.
“I be bringing your staff, too, you just say the word, mon.”
“No staff,” Damien says. “Not this trip. But I’ll radio when we need you to come back for us.” He splays his hand against my back, and I... can almost feel his thoughts in the pressure of his fingers. Alone. Together. Paradise.
I turn my head to smile at him. That sounds like heaven to me.
The captain returns to his little boat as Damien and I step from the dock to the white sand. I am wearing shorts and a tank top. My feet are bare. The captain unloaded our luggage onto the dock, but we leave it there for the time being, too intent on exploring this wide-open, nearly wild island in the Bahamas.
The sand is warm beneath my feet, and Damien and I walk across it to the water’s edge.MoreLess
