I carefully stretch my back, my wince of discomfort making me laugh because I’ll feel it for days. But I still want more, still want him, and that’s the crux.

After Henry, I never wanted anyone else. Only craved the pain and pleasure of impact play. And that damn beautiful man has changed everything. It’s not just what he can offer me, but the way he looks, hell the way he looksat methat I can’t get enough of.

I’d be lying if I said I couldn’t remember that first night like it was yesterday. The way his whiskey gaze sank deep, how he belied his gruff exterior with that little smirk for only me. Just thinking about that soft, hot mouth is making me desperate to feel it anywhere and everywhere.

I hate that the night at the club ended after our session. I wanted all of him, and he only gave me half. Perhaps that’s why I’m so stuck. The reason I can’t move on until I’ve had the whole experience. It’s something to consider, which I do as Shelby and I meander back to the stable.

It’s past nightfall by the time we arrive, and the other horses are happily chowing oats or already fast asleep. I make quick work of her saddle and reins before I grab a brush and begin to cool her down.

I’m lost in my efforts, so I never hear him until his lips press to my neck. “Did you have a good ride, cowboy? Would you care for another?”

Chapter Ten

? Beau ?

Not a day, no, not a damn minute has gone by that my mind wasn’t consumed with all things Caleb Danbury. And yes, it wasn’t too difficult to suss out exactly who he is, where he works, and where he lives. Hell, I’m pretty sure I could’ve found out his birth mother’s great-uncle or his social security number with little more than a bit of good gossip.

After moving here from Kansas City, it was a bit of a shell-shock, one I wasn’t prepared for. While Austin and Waco weren’t far, Piper Falls was smaller than I expected. I’d never been to a town where it was like Cheers and everyone knew my name. And they did actually know my name as soon as I stepped foot in town.

Word traveled fast that a city boy from up north was coming to join the fire department. I’m not even sure why I agreed to the transfer. My old Captain mentioned the opening, and it made me restless. Only my gut urged me to jump on the opportunity for bluer skies and greener pastures. I certainly won’t miss the snow and ice of Kansas City winters, but I thought I’d have to give up my favorite kinky extracurriculars.

You can imagine my titillation and relief upon discovering my new Captain’s second life. It didn’t take much effort to discover the club she frequented. Even better when I found the one who got away looking sweeter than I remembered, especially on his knees. That night after I put him through the worst of it and provided just enough aftercare to leave him sane if not completely sated, something told me to keep him coming back for more.

Caleb had a secret, and it was my new agenda to discover exactly what that was so I could make him mine. In my eyes, he was already mine, but I needed to get him up to speed.

As I arrived at the ranch where he works, I watched everyone leave, everyone but him. I got close enough so I could spy on him cleaning and getting the horses in their stalls before he saddled and rode off on a spotted beauty.

It’s a good thing I’m a patient man because it took an age before he finally returned. Unable to keep my hands to myself a second longer, I eased up to his back before pressing my lips against his neck. “Did you have a good ride, cowboy? Would you care for another?”

I could feel the shiver quake down his spine as goosebumps littered every inch of bare skin.

I chuckled against him. “I’ll take that as a yes. Why don’t you finish up real quick?”

He nods succinctly, his hands moving fast over the spotted coat before leading her to the furthest stall. After he closed the half door, he offered her an apple, patting her neck as she ate. “Good girl. Goodnight, Shelby.”

As soon as he turned, his pretty blue eyes ensnared mine as he meandered back to me.

“Better get a move on, you’ve about dried up my patience.”

That put his ass in gear, and he hurried over before kneeling before me. With a soft finger under his chin, I lift his face until our gazes meet.

“There’s my good boy. You want to please me, don’t you?”

He nods as much as he can as I hold him in place. “I do very much, sir.”

I lean down and give him a chaste kiss. “Good, sweetheart.”

I offer my hand and help him to his feet before swatting his ass.

“Fetch me that whip.” I nod toward the one coiled and hanging on the wall. It’s long, longer than any I’ve used before, but I don’t plan on whipping him, not tonight anyway.

He does as requested without a word, handing it to me respectfully before standing back, holding his arms behind his back. Whoever trained him did a good job. I wonder idly if it was Estrella, but I’m under the impression they came into it together. Whoever it was, I’ll enjoy the fruits of their labor for as long as I can.

I slide the blunt end of the handle down his plaid shirt. “Lose this.”

With his gaze glued to mine, he unbuttons it before pulling it off and letting it slide to the dirt floor with little thought. I smirk as I continue to use the handle to glide it over his naked torso, paying attention and giving extra care to his more sensitive spots. His sides, his armpits, of course his hardening, dusky brown nipples.

Once he’s huffing and moaning as his bulge begins to tent his jeans, I stop, making him gasp in despair.
