  Shane instantly caught on to what she was planning for the evening. “I sure do love the way your mind works woman.” Once they were back in their suite he ordered a bottle of the hotel’s finest champagne and a tray of chocolate-covered pineapple slices from room service.

  Danielle started filling the oversized Jacuzzi tub with hot water and fragrant bath oils. Next she lit the candles on the vanity before slipping out of her hotel robe and into the luxurious bath.

  “Shane baby? What are you doing honey!?” she called out to him.

  “I’ll be right in Danielle. I’m just paying the gentleman,” he replied.

  A couple of minutes later Dani was pleasantly surprised to see a silver champagne trolley being wheeled into the bathroom courtesy of her completely nude fiancé.

  “You rang Madam?” Shane was using his snootiest British butler voice. “Champagne for m’lady?”

  “Why yes I would love some champagne Jeeves and would you please ring up Queen Elizabeth for me? She left her crown in the downstairs loo again.” They giggled together at their own silliness.

  Shane poured two flutes of the sparkling bubbly and handed one to Dani as he climbed awkwardly into the bathtub, sloshing water over the sides.

  They laughed and groped each other under the water like two kids, while drinking and feeding each other the chocolate-dipped fruit. Then Dani turned on the whirlpool jets and let the pulsating stream of water flow between her legs.

  “Mmmmmm…..I don’t know. I’m thinking I might want to marry this tub instead. It’s giving you a run for your money.” Dani started purring from the vibrating water massage.

  “Oh yeah? I don’t think so. Can a bathtub do this?” Shane grabbed her by both her legs and hooked them over his shoulders. Then he took his cock in hand and steered it into her still submerged pussy. Their vigorous fucking caused half the water to splash out onto the marble floor around them.

  During their morning breakfast on their balcony, Shane spread a half-dozen tourist brochures out on the table in front of Dani while she was eating her banana-mango pancakes.

  “Check these out,” he said. “I picked these up in the lobby.”

  Dani almost choked on her food. “You crack me up. You’re acting like a total tourist now. Do you suddenly have an urge to do these lame activities? Next thing I know you’ll be wearing Bermuda shorts with sandals and dark socks.”

  “I’m not interested in the boring tours, but I would like to see these things. Like this Haleakala dormant volcano. It looks fantastic, but I don’t care to ride a silly bicycle down the slope while a tour van drives along next to me. That’s way too tame.”

  “Well why don’t we take a helicopter tour of it? There are several companies that do it.”

  “Yes! That’s what I’m talking about.” Shane made all the arrangements while Dani was in the shower in an effort to hide the details from her. They had no choice but to check out of their lovely Hana hotel early once Shane learned there was no quick route to Kahului Airport on Maui’s eastern coast.

  As they pulled into the airport Dani asked Shane what tour company he had decided to go with.

  “You’ll see,” was his only reply.

  A man in coveralls met them out on the tarmac with a clipboard and pointed to the helicopter they’d be taking. Shane instructed Dani to go over to it and take the front passenger seat while he and the man finished their discussion. Her lower jaw practically dropped to the ground when Shane climbed into the pilot’s seat a couple minutes later.

  “What? You know how to fly a helicopter Shane? I don’t know why I’m even surprised.”

  “I don’t know either….. now put on your headset so we can talk to each other. This bird is pretty loud.”

  Shane ran through his flight checklist and familiarized himself with the instrument panel while Dani was doing a pathetic job of trying to hide her fear.

  “Aren’t you worried about flying around a 10,000 foot high volcano? It’s pretty big.”

  “What’s the matter? Are you afraid I won’t see it? I promise I’ll keep my eyes open for it. Now relax. I’m sure it’s not much different than Mount Etna or Mount St. Helens.”

  “You flew a helicopter over those?”

  “Yes I did. So there’s nothing to worry. I’m not a beginner,” Shane assured her. “Have you ever seen Maui by air?”

  “No I haven’t. It’s too expensive for me.”

  “Well then this will be an adventure for both of us,” he said as the noisy rotor blades started spinning and they lifted straight up off the ground.

  “Even though I’m the pilot Danielle, I still need your island expertise. You have to be our tour guide and tell me what we’re looking at, okay?”

  “It’s a deal. Captain? Is the pilot called a captain?”

  “Yes. I especially like how that sounds when you say it. I’m already turned on. See?” Shane gestured to the obvious hard-on he had in his shorts.

  “Yes I see that. Very impressive Captain.” Dani would have normally started rubbing it but resisted the urge under the circumstances. “But please keep your mind on not crashing into the volcano, okay?”

  “Oh yes where is that pesky volcano? Where could it be? Oh you mean that giant thing right below us? Hey I didn’t know there was an observatory at the top?”

  “Yes that’s Haleakala Observatory. It’s actually owned by the University of Hawaii’s Institute of Astronomy. The Air Force also has a research lab in there.”

  “Well I can see why. It’s got ideal conditions. The summit of the volcano is above about a third of the Earth’s atmosphere.”

  Sharing her own knowledge helped Dani to eventually relax and enjoy the fantastic aerial tour of Maui in Shane’s very capable hands. Besides the majestic Haleakala, they took in the pristine beauty of the island’s varied and dramatic scenery; the jagged coastal cliffs, lush mountains, tropical jungles, golden beaches and amazing waterfalls. They circled Maui’s watery perimeter several times which allowed Shane to get a rare view of the far-reaching protective coral beds that surround it. Danielle was happy to see that her captain was completely awestruck. Finally, Shane landed the helicopter on the tarmac of the Kapalua Airport on Maui’s western coast.

  “What are we doing Shane? Doesn’t the tour company care if you leave their helicopter over on this side of the island? Don’t they want you to bring it back to their office? What about the car? We can’t just leave it over there? Should I call Paolo to pick us up? I’m sure he won’t mind.”

  “Paolo? Danielle, come on. What are you thinking crazy lady? The tour company doesn’t give a shit where I land this thing or where I leave it. I can nosedive it into the ocean if I want, as long as I can pay for it. Same with my car. I can leave it over there if I want and never lay eyes on it again. But I’m actually fond of it so I’ve arranged for it to be delivered to our home tonight. And we sure as hell don’t need to call Paolo to pick us up for fuck’s sake, because that’s what a limousine service is for. It’s all taken care of.”

  Shane smiled and kissed Dani on the forehead in a way that made her feel like a naïve child. She sat there dumbfounded while she watched him hop out of the helicopter to speak with the approaching airport personnel.

  It suddenly occurred to her that she still wasn’t used to thinking in billionaire terms like that, and quite possibly never would. It was so easy to forget how worlds apart their lives really were. In her world, money was always a factor and more often than not, an obstacle or at least an accepted boundary. In his world, those obstacles and boundaries didn’t exist at all and never had. She began to see how that could easily lead to a mindset of entitlement regarding the real world around him. It gave her momentary pause and cause for concern and it made her wonder exactly what type of husband and father he would be.

  Twenty-Two

  Over the next week or so Dani began seeing some extraordinary things happening at work. New memos were being churned out each day from the Tanner corporate office, a
nnouncing policy and procedural changes that seemed too good to be true; comprehensive recycling programs, cutting-edge waste-water initiatives and even sustainable construction practices would soon be implemented in their hotels worldwide.

  Each morning Dani could hardly wait to read the incredible news that filled her email inbox. The changes that were being made globally within the company were profound and unprecedented and she knew there could only be one person making such sweeping recommendations; and that person sure as hell wasn’t Grant Tanner. Paolo and Margie were starting to make a daily habit out of popping into her office and teasing her with sarcasm:

  “What is going on at this company? Do you know Margie? It’s so mysterious don’t you think?”

  “I don’t know Paolo. What in the world has gotten into our fearless leader? It’s as if some influential individual is impacting his business decisions? Weird…….who would have guessed that would happen?” Then the two jokesters would continue on the their merry way back down the hallway.

  Danielle kept waiting for Shane to initiate a conversation on the subject. She figured he’d have to bring it up to her eventually. But he didn’t, so she decided she was just going to have to force the issue herself….. in her own special way…..with nudity.

  At home, after dinner one evening, Dani invited Shane outside for a swim in the infinity edge pool.

  “Why don’t you come out and join me for a swim honey? It’s so beautiful out here.”

  Shane wandered outside to the patio, still wearing his business suit and glanced down into the moonlit water.

  Dani swam towards him under the water and suddenly popped up to the surface at his feet. Then she flipped onto her back and started doing a slow backstroke as she interrogated him.

  “So Mr. Tanner…..something has come to my attention at work….. I’ve been receiving quite a few emails lately about a lot of new eco-friendly procedures being implemented at your Tanner hotels….. Do you happen to know who might have recommended or directed those fantastic new changes by any chance?”

  Shane laughed and scratched his chin as he watched her swim back and forth in front of him.

  “This is quite an innovative method you have for eliciting company secrets from top management Ms Kane. I must say it’s working very well too. I’ll tell you anything you want to know officer…. I’m guilty as charged. Please handcuff me now.” Shane held out his wrists to her in a mocking plea of arrest.

  Dani swam to the pool steps and untied her bikini top, letting it drop into the water. Then she hooked her thumbs into her bottoms and slithered out of them as she walked up the steps and out of the pool.

  “I knew you had to be the one responsible for those wonderful changes,” she said as she stood aglow and glistening wet in the moonlight. “You have no idea how fucking hot I am for you right now.”

  She sashayed over to Shane and pulled him to her by the necktie so she could devour his mouth with her own. She slowly undid the knot while she pressed her wet naked body into his. Then she quickly snatched his tie and dove back into the pool, disappearing under the water.

  “Think you can get away that easily?!” He yelled as he quickly removed his shoes, and the rest of his clothes. Then he dove in and caught up with her at the other end of the pool.

  When they both emerged, Dani kissed him passionately again and said, “Do you have any idea how happy you’ve made me this week? It was the best surprise I ever had.”

  “Just from being environmentally prudent?” Shane laughed. “Is that the secret to getting girls? Shit if I’d known that was all it took to make women happy I’d have done it a long time ago.” He cupped Dani’s breasts in his hands and started kissing them.

  “Well it’s the secret to making this woman happy anyway,” she said as she ruffled his wet hair with her fingers. “Seriously, can we talk about it for it a minute? I’ve been wanting to thank you. Your new passion for protecting the environment is a dream come true.” Dani kissed him tenderly on the lips.

  “The pleasure is totally mine,” he said smiling. “I honestly can’t imagine doing business any other way. I’m sure my father’s seething about it but we can’t keep putting our greed for five percent higher profits above our moral obligation. I’m expecting a blistering phone call from him anytime now.

  “The hell with him, Shane. I can tell how much you genuinely love the Hawaiian Islands now and it means the world to me.” Dani tried to blink the tears from her eyes.

  “Well it’s all thanks to you. I’m sure my father is wondering what the hell is going on with his hotel chain.”

  “I’m sure you can handle him. You’re a way more savvy businessman than he is Shane.”

  “I don’t know about that. At least he doesn’t allow his employees to rob him blind.” Shane was trying to restore some lightheartedness back into their conversation.

  “Rob him? What in the world are you talking about?” Dani was clearly confused.

  “Yes, just recently an employee of mine literally took off with my necktie. Now where is it you brazen little thief ?”

  “Uh….. I think it’s down at the bottom of the deep end over there. It’s just a silly necktie anyway. Who cares really?”

  “Well it was a $550 cashmere tie….”

  “What! Are you kidding? Oh my god I’m so sorry honey. I had no idea. I didn’t even know they made ties that expensive.”

  “Now you’re gonna pay little girl,” he said as he made a lunge for her.

  Dani screamed as Shane chased her out of the pool and tackled her on the chaise lounge.

  Their slippery wet naked bodies writhing furiously around on a chair made for one person almost caused them to slide off onto the patio bricks beneath them. Dani decided to relinquish the lounger to Shane since she did, after all, ruin his ridiculously expensive tie. She grabbed a pillow to kneel on and pushed him back into the chair cushions as she took his enormous erect cock in hand and steered it into her wet warm mouth.

  She teasingly pulled and sucked on his knob with her lips and massaged his massive balls and shaft in the palm of her hand. Shane tugged at her hair in ecstasy as her rhythm got faster and her lips gripped him tighter, showing no sign of mercy at all.

  “Oh yeah….. that feels so fuckin’ great. I’m gonna come baby,” he growled.

  Dani could feel his dick expand in her mouth as he started to release his wad.

  As he came Shane cried out, “I forgive you for ruining my tie!”

  She tried to contain and swallow all of his cream but his words made her laugh, allowing some of it to seep out the corners of her smiling lips. She wiped her face on one of the cushions and exclaimed with a snicker, “This probably needs to be cleaned now.”

  Dani crawled up next to Shane in the chair and snuggled into the crook of his arm. The two lovers lie there blissfully in each other’s arms under the warm summer night sky caressing each other’s bodies. Danielle’s touch eventually got another rise out of Shane.

  “Oh my Captain Tanner, is your aircraft ready for lift-off again already?” She said in her best dumb bimbo voice.

  “This is Captain Tanner to the tower awaiting your signal to go ahead…..”

  “The tower clears you for takeoff. Fuck me whenever you’re ready Captain.”

  Shane instantly took the top position and spread Dani’s legs wide open with his hands. Then he plunged his cock into her eager wet pussy and fucked her until it sounded like she had come at least three times. Once he heard her third orgasmic moan and saw her eyes roll back into her head he figured it was safe for him to finish. But just as he was starting to unleash his powerful seed, his phone started ringing on the patio bar, playing the song that signaled it was his father; Sometimes it feels like somebody’s watching me…….

  “Fuck! Are you fucking kidding me?!”

  There was no way he was going to answer it this time. He came into Dani with three hard thrusts of his hips before finally finishing. Then he gently pulled out and rested hims
elf down next to her in the lounge chair. He enveloped her in his strong arms once again and decided at that moment that he wasn’t going to listen to his father’s message nor was he ever going to return his call in the near future. Period. He no longer valued his opinion. He kissed the top of Dani’s head and realized how amazing it felt to feel so secure in her love.

  “Danielle, I have a very important question to ask you. I’m not sure if now is a good time to talk about it or not but I was wondering about something. I’ve never asked a woman this before though.”

  “What is it Shane. You sound so serious. Is everything okay?” Dani adjusted herself in the chair so she was facing him.

  “I was just wondering if you were still planning to ditch your birth control? I mean…. I know you love me and said you’d marry me but……. do you still want to have a child with me? And if so, is it something you still want to do right away?” Shane looked at Dani with hopeful eyes.

  Danielle took his sweet face in her hands and kissed him long and tenderly on the lips before answering.

  “Yes Shane, I don’t think we need to wait any longer...”

  Shane grabbed her and lifted her up in the air as he swung her around joyously. Then he set her down and gazed deeply into her eyes. “You’ve made me the happiest man on Earth.”

  After their long passionate kiss Dani looked up at Shane and playfully asked, “Does that mean I’m hired for the mommy position? Do you still think I have the right qualifications for the job, boss?”

  “You’re most certainly hired Danielle. Actually I think you’re way over-qualified. Our kid will be the most fortunate child in the world with you as it’s mother. So what do we do now? Just let nature take its course? The Tanner-Kane merger is official?”

  Danielle shook Shane’s hand in agreement.

  “It’s official. No more birth control.” Dani started heading into the house but quickly added, “But can I start tomorrow boss? These overtime hours are exhausting. I could really use some sleep.”
