Placing a kiss on Corrine’s head, I stalked over to the kitchen door and locked the fucking door. We weren’t getting interrupted again by my men. Fuck that.
Turning, I prowled back to her. She had watched me walk to the door as I flipped the lock, her eyes were warm, and all of the love that she held for me was evident.
I wrapped my arms around her waist, pulled her back into my embrace, bent my head, and placed it in the crook of her neck.
With her hands automatically coming to my biceps, I whispered, “I love you.”
I pulled my head away as she looked up in my eyes, she hadn’t needed to say it back. Not when I had grabbed her ass, hauled her up, placed her perfect ass on my island, and then I devoured my woman.
Luckily, I was tall enough, compared to the island.
There we broke in the island for the first time. However, I didn’t have a condom in my pocket. When I stilled, Corrine knowingly looked at me as she brought my body closer to hers. The look on her face said she didn’t care.
Corrine never once gave me an ounce of protest. No protesting about someone looking in through the windows so they could see what was going on, and not protesting about the ringing of a cell phone somewhere off in the distance.
She had to get on birth control. The moment I had her bare, there was no going back to that, as she came down from her high, sheplanted her face in my chest and murmured, “I love you too.”
What I cared for, was the fact that she sat there on my island after I finished helping her cook breakfast, she fucking hand-fed me some bacon.
The next day while I was working, I hadn’t been able to wipe the smile from my face. So this is what it feels like to finally be happy?
“Boss, why are you smiling?” Colton asked me from his perch on the outside corner rail of the corral.
“Don’t even ask, he ain’t gonna tell you, man. I’ve been asking him all morning.” Pete sputtered out.
Fucking idiots.
However, my good mood was brought to a halt. That all too familiar little white sports car pulled up into my drive.
I looked up towards the sky and questioned the atmosphere, what the fuck?
“Sorry boss.” Half of my hands all got off the rails of the corral and fled. Hell, I didn’t blame them. Not one fucking bit.
“Hi!” Susan waved enthusiastically. As I watched her exit her little sports car, had she listened to a word I had told her? No. She hadn’t’ of course. This time she was in an even shorter skirt.
“What in the hell are you wearing?” I growled out.
“Well, to be honest, I was hoping that we could not work with my horse today. I thought maybe we could go grab a bite to eat.” She brought her hand out and tried to touch my forearm from where they were crossed in front of my chest, no, I stepped back out of her reach.
“I don’t give a flying fuck what you thought. I told you, that if you ever showed up dressed like how you were last week that you might as well bring a horse trailer with you. You are no longer a client of mine.”
“I thought you were joking with me.” She tried to poke her bottom lip out to pout. Little did she know that shit didn’t work on me, only one woman would ever be able to get away with doing that.
Speaking of the devil, my woman’s car came up the driveway. Now my day was righted.
I watched as she climbed out of her car and I licked my lips, “Hey,” Corrine said with a beautiful little blush.
“Beautiful. Were your ears ringing?” I smirked at her.
She smiled softly as she asked with a scrunched nose, “No. Why?” That fucking beautiful blush.
“Because I was thinking about you.” I winked at her, then our little moment was broken.
Susan nasally asked, “So is this what I am no longer a client. Because you are trying to replace what we have?”
“Wow, that’s funny as if he wouldn’t want to replace a four with a ten.” I heard Corrine mutter that quietly, but not as quietly as I think she meant to be, and that statement pissed me the fuck off.
Did she really not see what I saw? I knew she was calling herself the four, hell fucking no.
