As I drove away from the vineyard, I left with the feeling like I might be at the beginning of something much bigger than a fling. Sure, there had been no goodbye kiss, but it wasn’t like I helped matters by nearly running to my car and putting space between us. I kicked myself for acting like a college kid doing a walk of shame, wishing I had leaned in to lock lips with him again. But then, it was probably a good thing we didn’t start making out in the parking lot in front of all his brothers and the workers still doing work on various areas of the vineyard.
Plus, there would be no guarantee we would have been able to stop at one kiss. Or twenty.
At any rate, I felt like something might be brewing there. Something more substantial than a one-night distraction or just an example of explosive chemistry. And it was most certainly explosive chemistry. Not just physical either. Kane was incredibly intelligent, and I got the sense he was also a very deeply emotional person too, even if he didn’t show it terribly much. How could a man who had a pet cat he treated like gold be bad?
Kane had also seemed like he was interested too. The way he looked at me made it seem like he wanted to see more of me. I had never felt so appreciated by someone’s attention as I had his.
I hoped he felt the same way about how I looked at him. It was with more than simple lust that my eyes roamed his body with. The way his ripped abdomen gave way to those lines on his hips made me shudder. The tattoo that rose up his arm and across his back made him seem like a canvas, one that I would happily stare at in any museum on earth.
The quiet confidence he had was also a major turn-on. I had never met a man who so thoroughly understood who he was, and what he wanted, and yet wasn’t a complete jerk about it.
He knew his career, perhaps more so than any other vineyard operator I had met in the job, and was willing to change, definitely more than any other vineyard operator I had ever known. While he was adamant about his ideas on how to make things better, he was willing to listen to me and at least paid lip service to the idea of change and how to grow his business by putting out the best product, even if how to get that product was through suggestions that were not his own.
Our dinner had been a slow burn of unraveling that aspect of his personality. At first, he was at least a little resistant, which was to be expected. I had brought him bad news, news that meant a lot of hard work was in store for him for a few a little bit. It could have been a frustrating meal full of backbiting and sarcasm. Instead, he agreed with pretty much everything, and talk had floated away from work to talking about everything else.
The family life he had was intriguing, and I envied it. Having so many brothers who cared for each other was wonderful. His new soon-to-be sister-in-law and her baby were wonderful too, and watching Kane dote on the baby was incredibly sexy. There was nothing hotter in the world than a muscular tattooed man holding a baby.
All that was wrapped up in his incredible body and amazing talent in the bedroom. He was smart, sweet, gorgeous, and gave me orgasms that quite literally blew my mind. It was a combination no other man ever had been able to achieve.
Our sessions had been hot and heavy, with little foreplay, but the intensity made up for it. His body was exquisite, and he had the size and stamina to satisfy me to my every whim, and I had no doubt that he was like that all the time. If I were to visit him again, I was sure the experience wouldn’t have diminished in quality or intensity at all.
The drive from the bed-and-breakfast home was long, but it gave me time to think through all of that.
By the time I pulled into my parking lot, I was starting to feel like I might have a handle on it all. Sure, we couldn’t jump into a big, deep relationship at the moment. Not with my work being as hectic as it was and him doing everything that he could to save his family’s vineyard. But we could have a more or less casual thing for a while, knowing that when things calmed down, we could explore more options. Maybe I could be the type of cool girl who had a hot casual guy on the side. That was totally me, right?
