I fell to the ground, but Levi padded my fall. I rolled off him as we both broke out into raucous laughter.

“What the hell are you doing down here?” I asked him, tears from laughing so hard running down my face.

“Well, I had just hopped the fence and I’m still a bit tipsy, so you know… I didn’t have a chance to get up yet. I tried to warn you.”

“You did, I have to give you credit for that.” My chest hurt from laughing so hard, but after a few moments, I caught my breath. “Please tell me there are no more entries or exits into this enclosure that she can escape from.”

“Nope, only the two. Her usual enclosure only has one exit and entry, but since Al broke the gate, I had to use this one. I forgot about the back exit, even though I built the damned thing myself.”

I rolled over on my side, propping myself up on my arm. “You’re still getting the hang of this, huh?”

“Yep. Just got Birdtha two weeks ago. Still working out the kinks with her.”

“What made you get an emu, of all animals?”

He shot me his famous lopsided grin. “What can I say? I like living life on the wild side.”

“Some men dream of getting tigers or pythons, but you get an emu?”

He shrugged and rolled over to face me. “Truthfully, she needed a home, and I can’t turn away an animal in need.”

“Where did she come from?”

“Some family near Liberty thought they wanted an exotic pet, but the bird terrorized their son. They were desperate to re-home her or—well, I didn’t think it was fair to the bird that she would be destroyed for simply being a bird, and since I had the space, I figured why not? But damn, she’s brutal.”

His eyes lit up when he spoke of the bird; even though the emu would have killed him if given half the chance, he still loved it. And as an animal lover, I could appreciate that.

“Yeah, a lot of people underestimate emus,” I said softly.

“People get these wild animals and don’t bother to research them, which really irks me,” he said. “They just think they’ll be pets. These people acted like they bought a canary, and it’s just so damned frustrating to me.”

“Me too.”

My cheeks hurt from smiling so much, and Levi was grinning right back at me. Even with all chiseled angles and contours, when he smiled just the right way, he was simply adorable.

Sexy, adorable and loved animals as much as me?

Dangerous combo, Anna. Be careful here.

I should have cleaned myself off and walked away, but his lips were right there… and we had talked about having some fun.

My insides were on fire. My panties were soaked at just the idea of what I wanted to do to this man.

I leaned forward and grabbed Levi’s face in my hands and pressed my lips to his. He kissed me back, his hands moving over my body as he pulled me on top of him. He gripped my hips tightly as our tongues explored each other’s mouths.

Feeling him pressed against me, I got a sense of his size, which just caused more wetness in my panties.

“Mmm, right here in front of the alpaca? You sure he can handle this?” I teased.

We looked at the fence where Al was munching on some hay, oblivious to us.

“I think he’s far enough away to avoid being traumatized with what we’re about to do.”

“Oh yeah?” I licked my lips and stared deep into his green eyes; my forehead pressed to his as I ground my pelvis against his. “And what are we about to do?”

“Well, maybe if you stop talking, I can show you,” he teased.

His hands worked at the zipper at the back of my dress, carefully sliding it down. He slipped the dress over my head and laid it down beside us.
