Jeremy waits for me on the porch with our horses already tacked. Prince shines in the fading light, and my heart fills with love for this place, this home, and, most of all, this man. After we stayed, Jeremy contacted Prince’s owners and bought him for me. He said we were a perfect match—and we are. But not as perfect as my connection to my favorite cowboy.
“Ready Sugar?” His deep rasp skates over my skin like silk, and my body responds. Even waking up in his arms every morning hasn’t dulled my reaction to this man—if anything, it’s even better now. He waits for me, arms outstretched, at the bottom of the porch and I eagerly leap into them.
“Always,” I respond, kissing his jawline.
“Gross,” Theo yells, covering his eyes and causing Jeremy to chuckle. He slowly slides me down his body, dropping a quick kiss on my lips before releasing me so I can grab Prince’s reins. Placing one foot in the stirrup, I reach up to grab the saddle horn before using all my strength to mount up. The beautiful white gelding dances under me, eager to get on our way.
Turning my head, I see Jeremy is already astride Tuscaloosa, looking every inch the sexy-as-hell rancher. The cowboy I’m completely head over heels for.
“Bye, Mom. Bye… Dad,” Theo shouts, giving us a grin and a wave. Jeremy’s jaw drops open, his eyes widening before filling with tears.
“We’ll see you tomorrow, son,” he says, a huge smile illuminating his face even while his voice cracks with emotion. “Love you.”
Mama Lyons comes to the porch, shooing us off, and we turn the horses and start out toward the trails while they disappear back into the house to bake cookies. The horse’s smooth gait is relaxed. The bright blue sky is filled with puffy clouds, and a cool breeze whispers through the trees. Jeremy steers Tuscaloosa in so close that our legs bump, and I reach for him, twining our fingers together.
“He called me dad,” he murmurs, still awestruck.
“He loves you,” I say simply. “You’re the best man he’s ever known—we’ve ever known.” Over the past year, we’ve all gotten even closer. Truly becoming a family, and Theo mentioned wanting to start calling him dad a few times. I encouraged him to feel comfortable doing it whenever he was ready. So, though the timing was a surprise—I’ve been expecting it for a while. A thrill runs through me at his reaction—his joy—and my belly clenches.
The words are on the tip of my tongue, ready to spill—but I bite it down. This isn’t the right place. Instead, I squeeze his hand and then let go. Issuing a challenge.
“Race you,” I cry before taking off toward the trail that leads toward Lustre Lake.
The sky turns brilliant shades of pink and gold, glowing overhead like a symbol of love and hope. Two things I’ve found since coming to this magical place. Birds sing, swooping happily through the trees as we approach; horses clopping more slowly now that the trail has narrowed. The woods are quiet—darkening—and we’re the only two people for miles.
A sense of peace settles over me, and I inhale the scents of my surroundings. Pine, jasmine, and the warm mountain air fill me—home. The rumble of water reaches my ear as we crest the little hill overlooking Lustre Lake.
“Looks like we finally made it,” I chirp. “And I won.” Though in reality, I won the second he came into my life.
“Pretty sure I won, Sugar. Getting to watch that fine ass all the way to the lake,” he jokes. “Plus, you’re here with me—I don’t need anything else for the rest of my days.” Love overflows within me—I never thought this could be my life. Happiness each and every day with a man I love—who loves me and my son so completely.
The horses pick their way down to the lake, and once we get to the flat beach area, we pour them some water and pull off their saddles and bridles, knowing they won’t stray far. I bend forward, arranging the saddle over a large boulder, when I feel a presence behind me. Big hands land on my hips, gripping tightly, and my core flutters in response.
Arching back, I rub myself against him.
“Looks like you wanna play,” he rasps, sliding a hand over my jeans up to the snake under my shirt. I rear up, flattening myself against him, and his hands continue to wander. They reach around me, brushing over my skin and sending heat racing to my nipples; making them peak.
“I always want to play with you, Cowboy,” I tease, although these days he’s less cowboy and more firefighter. With me taking over so much training at the ranch, Jeremy’s been able to go back to a career he loves. And Theo loves getting to ride around in the truck.
He bends his head forward, latching onto my neck and sucking hard. The sexy rumble from his chest has my panties soaking, and I can’t wait to get out of the damn things. My hands trail up to where his are cupping my aching breasts, and I hold them there, grinding back against him.
“Been dying to fuck you by this lake. Under the new moon,” he growls, breath tickling my skin. His cock twitches against my ass, jerking with every move. Eagerly, I unbutton my jeans, and his hand follows the motion, splaying across my belly. His fingers tease along the top of my panties, and I shimmy my pants down my legs as fast as I can, ready to have him inside me.
“You’re so fucking beautiful.” His voice is deep, heavy with lust. Fingers slide beneath the lacey material, and he wastes no time bringing them down to my overheated pussy. “So wet. Such a good girl.”
One hand rolls my nipples, alternating back and forth while the other finds my throbbing clit. He rubs me hard with calloused fingertips. Pleasure builds quickly between my legs, soaking through my panties, and the wet sounds bring me closer and closer to the edge.
“Jeremy,” I whimper, twisting my head so he can capture my lips. Our tongues dance as he plays my body like only he can. He times the thrust of his tongue with little pinches to his clit, and I cry out. His mouth swallows the sound and his motions get faster, harder. The orgasm builds so fast inside that it steals my breath as it erupts. Pleasure shoots from my toes to the top of my head, rolling through me and leaving shimmers in its wake.
“Need to be inside you, Sugar. Need you so bad,” he rasps. And holy hell, do I need him too.
“Yes,” I beg, twisting toward him to undo the button of his jeans. We strip quickly, rushing with the excitement and desire we feel for one another. Not bothering to worry about keeping our clothing clean or near us. The discarded material litters the soft sand below our feet, but neither of us gives a single fuck. Our eyes trained on one another.
Jeremy’s hard cock springs free, slapping against his belly, and the sound makes my pussy flutter in anticipation. My hand wraps around him, sliding up and down his smooth shaft and he groans. A loud guttural noise which fills the quiet beach.
His eyes glint in the dim light, feral with lust. Strong arms grab my thighs, lifting me high, and with a scream, I wrap my arms around his neck, kissing him passionately and wiggling until I feel the tip of his cock brush my pussy.
“Please, Cowboy,” I pant, arching against him as the velvety head slides through my folds to notch at my soaked entrance. His strong arms hold me tight, safe; surrounding me in their love. “I love you so much. Fuck me good.”
