Was this dude for real?
He had a house like this and actual manners under the bluster. Yet somehow he’d been single for a damn long time in a thirsty town like ours.
I had to think that somehow women just hadn’t been paying attention. The guy was hot and tall and built with thighs like tree trunks. And I wasn’t even thinking about his other unmentionables I’d felt very clearly pressed against me.
Okay, fine, I so was. Shit, did I have condoms? He certainly didn’t have a need for them. I hadn’t either for a while. But luckily, I was on the Pill.
“How do you feel about dogs?”
I blinked at him. “Love them. I dog-sit for Brady and Mav all the time. Why?”
He went down the hall and opened a door. Out came an exuberant German Shepherd who bounded toward me with such enthusiasm I immediately held open my arms. He careened into them and covered my face with doggie kisses while I giggled and tried to keep a hold of him. “Hey, pretty boy. Aren’t you a love? Are you a boy? Hey there. Big paws,” I managed between giggles as I tried to avert my face before his tongue slipped into my mouth.
Not the action I was looking for tonight, although he was a very handsome young man.
“Boomer, chill. Yeah, yeah, she’s pretty. Ease off, boy. C’mere.” He sat on the couch and patted his thighs and Boomer immediately transferred his affection to his owner, who hugged him with the same level of adoration.
“Has he gone without female companionship for a long time too?”
“Yeah. We aren’t exactly social.”
“Fits, since you live in the middle of the forest. I didn’t even realize how dense it was up here.”
“Makes for some good hiking. Boomer, dude, relax. Don’t chase her off.”
“Before daddy gets some.” I giggled at the cross look Christian shot my way, ducking my head as excitement tingled up my spine.
Before today, I wouldn’t have said I liked moody guys but something about Christian’s stern expression really did it for me. Maybe because he was also protective and chivalrous and clearly cared about making sure I was comfortable.
I had a feeling that would extend to ensuring my pleasure too. And he was also damn fine to look at, I couldn’t deny it.
“I wasn’t kidding about telling your brothers.” He wrangled his dog to the sofa beside him though Boomer continued to stare at me with open adoration.
“You really don’t have to do that.”
“Yes, I do. I work with them. I’m not going to harbor any more secrets.”
“Any more? Let me guess, are you hiding that you have a fleet of Care Bears on your bed? Grumpy Bear has a place of honor on your pillow, maybe?”
He didn’t smile. Not even a little.
I drew my legs up to my chest while Boomer wiggled his butt in circles on the sofa and waited for freedom to tackle-lick me again. For a German Shepherd, he was basically a mushball. Perhaps they all were like that and just had a rep for being fierce.
Kinda like his owner although Christian’s inner sweetness still remained to be seen.
On the other end of the spectrum, I kept flashing back to his hand around my neck right before he kissed me. That probably shouldn’t have turned me on.
I wouldn’t mind if he held my wrists behind my back as I rode him. Or used his cuffs…
Shit. Now I was squirming on his colorful pillow.
“Honey?”
“Yeah.” I cocked my head and let my gaze wander. He was sitting spread-legged and the pose didn’t diminish one iota the damn fine goods he had to work with. “Sorry, what did you say? I’m thinking about things that have nothing to do with my brothers.”
“You’re a menace.”
“I am. Want to see if you can tame me?”
