“Let go, Taylor. Please,” she said.
Taylor did immediately. They all heard the fear, the worry in her tone.
“What is it, baby?” Kurt asked as he sat up.
She tried sitting up to grab her shorts.
“Here. Let me help you,” he offered and she slid back into her panties and shorts.
She then pulled her shirt down.
“What is it? What’s wrong?” Warner asked her.
“That was too much too soon. Overwhelming,” she said and then ran a nervous hand through her hair.
Warner smiled then touched her chin and tilted her head up toward him.
“Not too much. Never too much. You’re perfect, and if you need more time to get to know us that’s fine. We’re not going anywhere,” he told her and Taylor then Kurt nodded.
Kurt felt such a need, a possessive desire in him, he lowered half over her body and kissed her deeply. When he felt her fingers run through his hair and hold him tight, he was relieved. He would be as patient as he could be. But he knew it wouldn’t last long.
Chapter 6
When Mercedes entered the sheriff’s department, she was greeted by everyone. It felt so good to be cared for and to live in a town like Chance. Over the past year she had seen lots of people helping one another out and knew the town was special. But feeling the love, the concern from the citizens of Chance as well as her fellow coworkers, truly touched her heart.
But as she headed toward her desk after receiving some hugs, her eyes landed on the yellow bouquet of flowers. She panicked and stopped short. She instantly turned around and grabbed onto Taylor’s arms.
“Taylor, the flowers. Oh my God, someone sent them to me the other day and I have no idea who. What if it were those men? What if they were watching me at the supermarket and here in town?”
He smiled softly and caressed her arms.
“It’s okay, sweetheart. It wasn’t them. I already checked it out. You’re safe here, too,” he said and she looked at him strangely. She felt strangely, but before she could question him the sheriff called his name.
“Taylor, I need you in my office a minute.”
Taylor nodded his head and then looked back at Mercedes. He held her gaze as he reached over and cupped her cheek. “You’re the one that said you wanted to head back to work. I’ll catch you later. I won’t be far away. Okay?”
She nodded her head. He leaned down and kissed her lips softly and she felt so much better. As he walked toward Max’s office, Thelma hurried over.
“Woman, you have got to tell me the details about how Taylor and Kurt showed up at that bar and rescued you. If that isn’t fate, then I don’t know what is,” Thelma said.
“Fate?” Mercedes asked as she walked around her desk. She still was feeling uneasy about not knowing who sent the flowers, and who was obviously watching her in the grocery store last week.
“Yes, fate. Those damn men have been wanting you for quite some time. They’ve turned down so many offers of dates. You’re one lucky lady and they sure are three lucky men.”
“Turning down dates?” she asked.
“Oh yes, I’ve had to help some of these men around here, Taylor included, dodge a few calls from pestering females. Seems your Taylor is quite the catch. But that’s all over now. They’re all yours and no woman can even think of trying to push in.”
“Thelma, I need you.”
One of the deputies called out Thelma’s name and she smiled wide, excused herself, and hurried toward her desk.
Mercedes thought about what Thelma said about the women and she felt a bit jealous. The Dawn men were hers as she was theirs. As soon as she talked to her friends and gained a bit more confidence, she would let her guard down and let them make love to her. Just thinking about it made her feel all aroused and a nervous wreck. They were older, more experienced men. Maybe they wouldn’t want a virgin, but instead a woman who knew her way around a man’s body and how to please him?
She felt sick and then Taylor walked out of the sheriff’s office, gave her a wink and headed toward the front door.
Instantly her emotions changed again. She felt giddy, safe, and pretty important that she snagged the Dawn men as hers. Thinking that made her feel excited yet scared out of her mind. She needed to focus on work. The other things would come later.
