“Closer than most,” Max quipped as he wiggled his eyebrows.
Violet swatted his arm. “You know what I mean.”
“I do, babe. Just trying to joke. Doesn’t have to be sad.”
“And we don’t have to say good bye,” Dan said. “We just say, ‘until next time’.”
“Definitely,” Tara agreed. “You two go rest and we’ll see you later. We’ll make it a most memorable night.”
The couples picked up their few belongings and walked in different directions to their own cabanas. Once inside, Violet and Max took a hasty shower before collapsing on the bed together.
They’d nap and look forward to their final night with the Hardys.

Max lightly ran his fingers across Violet’s cheeks as they faced one another upon waking.
“Hard to believe we have to leave this paradise and return in two days.” Violet sighed.
“Just because we’re leaving doesn’t mean the fun has to end,” Max said. “Our relationship has only gotten better, and stronger. And if we want to continue exploring our wild, sexual side, there are places in our own neighborhood. So to speak,” he added quickly when Violet raised her brows.
“Really?”
“Really.” He chuckled. “If you want to continue, we can.” Max liked seeing Violet happy. “And if not, that’s okay too. I think we’ve learned and experienced plenty to continue to feed our desires. But like I’ve told you a million times, you’re all I need.”
“A million?” she teased.
“At least.” He placed a quick kiss on her lips before sitting up, bringing her with him. As they faced one another, Max held her hands. “Ready for one more adventurous night before you’re stuck with just me?”
“Oh, Max, I’ll always love being stuck with you.”
“Hmm.” He grinned and kissed her again before pulling her to her feet. “Let’s get ready.”
Once showered and dressed, Max as casual as ever in shorts and t-shirt, and Violet in only a slip of a dress—no undergarments—they left their cabana to join Tara and Dan for one more night of shared pleasure.
Hand in hand, they strolled leisurely in the sand, the night lit up brilliantly by the full moon. A few steps away from their destination, Max brought them to a stop and turned his wife in his arms. He tenderly framed her face and gave her a deep kiss. When he pulled back, loving the drowsy desire he saw on her face, he gave one more nip. “I love you so much, Violet.”
With her eyes fully open, her smile lit up his world. “I love you so much, too, Max.” After pausing for a moment, she then asked, “Everything okay?”
“Sure. Just wanted to kiss my wife. We walk through that door and it may be a while until I get another chance.” He tried to sound teasing, but a niggling thought in the back of his mind had him hesitating at proceeding. He quickly shoved that aside, readying himself to enjoy one more night of carnal pleasure.
Violet giggled as she looped her arm around his and propelled them forward. “You’re silly. You can kiss me any time.”
He bent down to kiss the top of her head before stepping to the cabana. After knocking, Dan was quickly opening the door and welcoming them inside. “Come in, Tara’s got everything ready for a celebration.”
Max led Violet inside, and they were greeted by a very exuberant Tara. “Hey, hey! Happy anniversary, again.” She hugged them both. When she pulled away, she asked if they wanted champagne. “We got a great bottle and Dan is ready to open it.”
“Absolutely,” Violet said.
While Dan worked on the bottle, Tara grabbed two glasses, and once the cork was popped, frothy goodness poured forth. She caught the golden liquid in each glass and handed them to Max and Violet. She then grabbed two more to fill for herself and her husband. Initiating a toast, she lifted her glass. “Too many more years of adventure and happiness.”
Everyone cheered and took a drink.
“Now, let’s eat.” Tara grinned.
As the couples filled their plates, they got comfortable with the conversation, and before long, they had indulged in finishing off the entire bottle of the bubbly.
Violet excused herself to use the bathroom, wobbling just a bit, and once she left the room, Tara carried on with the conversation. “With all we’ve engaged in, Max, there’s never been play between just you and Dan. Is it because you’d prefer to avoid that, or the situation just never presented itself?”
Max shifted a bit uncomfortably, processing his answer. He didn’t want to offend the couple, but he wanted to be completely honest. “Ah, both, I guess. I haven’t felt the urge to go male on male. No offense, Dan,” he quickly added with a chuckle.
“None taken.” Dan finished the last of his drink and set his glass aside.
“Have you ever had pleasure with a guy?” Tara asked. “Have one fondle you, jerk you off, suck you off, or you return any of those favors?”
Max spewed a bit of his drink at Tara’s blatant questioning. He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, getting a little uncomfortable with the direction her questioning. “Uh, no. I don’t want to sound like a hypocrite, I’m all for man and woman, woman and woman, but honestly, I’m not into other men. Again, no offense.” He looked between Tara and Dan, suddenly wishing Violet was here to be his buffer.
Dan laughed and waved Max’s concern away. “Really, no worries. I experimented a bit, but like you, I prefer a woman.” Just then, Violet returned to the room, passing in front of Dan as she headed toward Max. But before she could reach him, Dan surprised her by snagging her around the waist and pulling her to his lap. “Like this beauty.” He playfully nipped her exposed neck while running his hands from her waist up to her breasts, squeezing them through her poor excuse for a
