Before I could think twice, he stepped off the back of the boat and we sank into the warm, clear ocean.
His arms around me, his hard length still inside me, his feet hit the sandy bottom, and he pushed off. A second later, we broke the surface.
Joy filled my heart, and I laughed.
His erection slid from my body, but he smiled and held me with one arm as he started to swim. “Come.”
“I just did.” I giggled.
A rare chuckle escaped, and he swam us toward a deserted beach. Still holding on to me, even when it became shallow enough to stand, he lifted me back up and put my legs around his waist.
Belatedly, I realized he’d lost his swim trunks somewhere along the way.
I glanced around. “We’re both naked.”
“Yes, we are.” Holding the back of my head, walking just to where the water was lapping against the shore, he lowered my back to the sand and drove into me in one fluid movement.
My legs came up, and I moaned in pleasure. “Oh God.”
“Not God.” He pushed my wet hair from my face and thrust deep. “Just me.”
I stared up at his serious eyes and set mouth. I traced the cut angle of his jaw with my gaze and drank in the beauty of sharp cheekbones and straight nose. “You’re beautiful.”
“You’re mine.” Pulling back as waves caressed our legs, he drove back into me. “I own this sweet cunt, Songbird.”
His crude words no longer shocked me, but instead lit a fire deep inside my body and my heart that only he could stoke. “Yes, you do.”
He thrust harder and leaned closer. “I own you.”
Threading my sandy hands into his wet hair, I realized he needed to know he owned me as much as I needed to hear it. “Forever and always.”
His eyes darkened with unleashed desire, and his hand came between our bodies. Rubbing my clit once, twice, he then grasped it between his fingers and pinched. “Show me, Songbird,” he demanded. “Show me how you submit to me.”
My heart, my body, they obeyed.
Lying in the surf on a deserted island in the middle of the Bahamas, I came apart and came together as my dominant alpha made my body sing a song only for him.

ALPHA
Billionaire.
Mercenary.
Navy SEAL.
The Teams trained me to be a killer. War taught me to be ruthless. Then an ill-fated mission proved I was human. Combat wounded, cut loose by the Navy, I had a choice. Fade into obscurity or use the skills I had.
Alpha Elite Security was born, and three years later, my company was the most sought-after security contractor in the world. Five global locations, ten company jets, every one of my employees military trained—we were the best of the best. Overseeing operations, I didn’t have time for women or anything other than growing my company. My success rate unmatched, I’d never lost a client.
Then I got a call, the only call that would get me back in the field. She was missing. The woman I’d destroyed seven years ago. Now I had one objective.

VICTOR
Philanderer.
Mercenary.
Marine.
I didn’t join the Marines because I was honorable. There wasn’t one scrupulous thing about me. If I saw an advantage, I took it. But serving my country turned out to be the best decision I ever made, because it led me to Alpha Elite Security.
AES was the most sought-after security contractor in the world. Their reputation unmatched, they got the job done—by any means necessary. Which was where I came in. I handled AES’s difficult clients, the ones no one wanted to touch. I thought I was invincible.
Then my boss sent me a text. Six words. New client. Sensitive matter. Corporate espionage. But he failed to mention the suspected spy was a gorgeous brunette. And the client? Her husband. Now I had one objective.
Code name: Victor.
Mission: Infiltrate.
VICTOR is a standalone book in the exciting new Alpha Elite Series by USA Today Bestselling author, Sybil Bartel. Come meet Vance “Victor” Conlon and the dominant, alpha heroes who work for AES!
In November of this year, my only child, my son Oliver, passed away tragically and unexpectedly in his sleep from an undiagnosed heart defect. My Sweet Boy was only fifteen-years-old.
Oliver was my entire world. Born with an auto immune disease, he overcame every obstacle life threw at him and he not only survived, he thrived during his time here on earth. Intelligent beyond comprehension, he was a straight A student, (with a 4.45 GPA!). He was an incredibly talented cello and piano player, a black belt in Karate and Jiu Jitsu, and a compassionate friend to everyone he met. He had the biggest heart of anyone I’ve ever known. I was blessed with a gift beyond words the day he was born.
Oliver taught me about unconditional love and perseverance. He showed me what determination looked like, and he showed the world how someone so young, yet so wise, can handle life’s obstacles with grace and humbleness. Oliver made me a better person. He brightened every single day. His smile was my joy, and he truly made this world a better place.
I will never understand why he was taken from us, and I cannot imagine a day where the grief isn’t so punishing that it robs me of all breath. I would give anything to have just one more minute with him so I could hold him, and tell him I love him. But life, for all its beauty, cruelly doesn’t work like that. So this is me, holding my son and telling him how I love him more than words. This book, that was in the final stages of editing when he passed, is a testament to his perseverance. My new reality, while unfathomable, is me doing my best to honor the memory of my beautiful son.
My Sweet Boy
you were, and will forever be, my most treasured gift.
