CHAPTER FIFTEEN
Iris awoke before Jim the next morning, finding Brass lying on his side next to her with his arm draped across her as he snored softly. She kissed him on the cheek before quietly moving his arm and put on her robe to go the spacious bathroom. Iris had never been in a Jacuzzi tub and wanted to try it out. Her efforts to be silent continued as she turned on the water to slowly fill the tub. She added scented bath salts and inhaled the delicate clean fragrance in the steam. Turning the Jacuzzi on to a low setting, she slowly sank into the tub to soak. It felt like being in a glass of Alka Seltzer to her. Her eyes closed as Iris relaxed.
Jim was awakened by the low hum of the Jacuzzi and noting Iris was already up. He stretched and yawned; thoroughly pleased with the night they'd just shared. He was delighted with how totally and innocently Iris gave herself to their lovemaking, surprised at himself with how lusty a response she elicited from him, and hoping that each intimate encounter in the future would be similar. He was going to surprise her further yet.
With closed eyes, Iris luxuriated in the tub with the swirling waters around her. Her eyes flew open in surprise to find herself being joined in the tub by Brass, who gave her a sly smirk as he settled in beside her.
"Morning, milady Brass, I trust you slept well," Brass quipped.
"Only when you let me, Boss," Iris replied with a wink.
Jim's intentions were made known as he drew Iris close and had her atop him as he kissed her hungrily. She sensed his aroused state as well as feeling it. Her kiss in return was equally passionate and unreserved. The next several minutes passed with the sounds of much splashing, with sighs and occasional words to reflect their slow lovemaking that concluded in a mutually satisfying way.
Later in the morning they checked out of the Bellagio to head to the airport for the first leg of their honeymoon trip.
