“Pretend she got fired and you’re glad to see her go if he asks.”
“You got it. The guy’s giving me the creeps. He’s been on his phone a lot too. I just thought you should know.”
“Thanks, Liza.”
“Sure. But Chance, there’s been a car hanging out around my house too. I’m terrified. I was wondering if you think it’s safe to call the police. I know she said that you and your buddy were talking with the locals.”
“Yeah, go ahead and call them. I’ll call Austin and let him know to relay the message.” Austin had a few people on the case and was supposed to be working with the local authorities. Hopefully, they’d be able to get the piece of shit behind bars, but I didn’t want to tell Liza too much in case the asshole decided to make her talk.
“Thanks. And I’ll call you if he asks me anything else directly. At the moment he’s hitting on the new girl. She’s young and dumb, so thankfully she doesn’t know anything to tell, or she would.”
We ended the call, and after I relayed the message to Austin, I decided to give it a minute before I went back inside. I didn’t like the way things were going with the two of us, and I wasn’t going to waste another minute fighting about stupid shit that was either in the past or out of our control.
I needed to get us both back on the same page, and I knew there was only one way to do that.
I turned and went inside and found her kneeling in the kitchen and digging in the bottom cabinet for a pan.
“Liza called. She said Nick’s at the diner asking about you and flirting with that new girl.” I didn’t want to tell her that we were getting the local authorities involved knowing how afraid of the police she was, so I left it at that.
“That sounds like him. I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t hit on her just to get a piece of ass while he looks for me.”
“Wow, he’s the total package, isn’t he?” I snarled.
“You have no idea.”
She stood up and dusted off her yoga pants. I took the pan from her and put it on the counter.
“At least we know where he is now, and that he’s not out on the mountain spying on us as we speak. Once he figures out that you’re not coming back to the diner though, he’ll be back when the snow clears. We’ll have to be ready for him to make his move.”
She slammed the pan down on the counter and fisted her hands on her hips. “How many times do I have to tell you that I don’t want your help with this? How many times until you get it through your thick skull?” she asked feigning anger, though all I saw was fear.
“A lot,” I said simply. “I’m not going to let you push me away Dream. Not now, not ever. You know I’m nothing like that shithead husband of yours, and I’ll be damned if you try and convince yourself that I am just because you’re scared of being hurt again. Well, guess what, sweetheart? So am I. But here I am, ready to kill this motherfucker to protect you.”
She looked at me incredulously for a moment before opening her mouth to speak. After a brief moment, she closed it again without saying a word.
“I don’t want to fight anymore Dream,” I said softly.
She looked at me with a challenge in her eyes. I almost admired her tenacity. Almost.
I was glad she didn’t try to run that time because I’d have tackled her to the floor to keep her close.
Our mouths met again, and I kissed her good and hard and then led her to the rug in front of the fire where I lay her back. Now that I knew where Nick was, I was going to give in to every depraved desire that the two of us had. My hands tucked into the waistband of her yoga pants and I tugged them down to see her white lace panties that barely covered her bare mound.
I dragged my finger across the fabric and then t pulled them to the side as I leaned forward to lick her. She moaned and cupped her breasts, and I reached up and pushed the shirt up. She took over and slipped it up over her head. Her plump breasts were beautiful with tight nipples that begged for my attention.
I rose up and kissed them both, licking them, nibbling and sucking until I kissed my way back down. I reached up as my mouth hit her sweet slit and pinched her nipples until she moaned.
I looked up at her, a question in my eyes. “Do whatever you want with me, I trust you.” She lifted her legs, and I grabbed hold of her calves and held them while I licked and sucked, and then I pushed them apart, and her thighs fell even wider apart as I brought my fingers to fuck her tight channel.
