“Bye! Love you!” Ruby calls as I palm her ass and run to my car.
I put her gently in the passenger seat, then check the door of Crazy Eights. A few people are leaving, but no sign of the cowboy. Maybe he’s had enough. If he hasn’t, I’ll kick his ass in this parking lot while Ruby stays safely locked in my car.
Ruby rolls down her window. “What are you doing? Let’s go!”
I scan the door again, then get in the driver’s seat. Before she can say another word, I grab her and pull her mouth to mine. I kiss her with all the possession I feel right now. Maybe she’s not in love with me yet, but that doesn’t mean she isn’t mine. I’ve been hers all along, and I’ll be damned if I let another man so much as touch her.
When I finally release her, she’s breathless, her cheeks pink.
I start the car.
“Knox?” Her voice is shaky.
God, have I gone too far? I hope I didn’t scare her.
“Yes?” I take her hand.
“Take me home and make love to me.”
Fuck. Me.

RUBY
Iknow it’s wrong to be turned on once again by Knox’s show of violence, but clearly I have some weird new kink. This one is more tied to his jealousy, but he is just so overprotective of me. The possessive look in his eyes was my undoing. I find myself wanting to be possessed by him. Every freaking inch of me, as a matter of fact. Over and over again, hopefully.
Knox doesn’t live that far from the bar, but damn does the drive feel like it’s taking an eternity. I keep my thighs pressed together to help with the ever-growing throb that lies between them. It’s growing worse with each second that passes. What is wrong with my body? It can’t be normal that my panties are already soaked through. But who am I to say what’s normal or not when it comes to these feelings?
My body has never been this way before. So … sohorny. Like, my gosh I didn’t know this was a thing. I bet it’s some crazy reaction because I’ve gone too long without losing my virginity or really doing much else for that matter. I’m not even that into getting myself off. I’d given up on it a few years ago because every time I tried my mind would pull up an image of Knox, and I knew I couldn’t continue.
My fantasy has always put him in the starring role even years after I’d left Reindeer Valley behind. He is always front and center whenever I let my mind go to a place like that. No wonder I’m about to jump out of my skin at the thought of spreading my thighs for him.
I mean, I’ve tried my best to not let myself have those thoughts. Now that I’m so close to getting my fantasy, my body is about to explode with need, wanting to make up for lost time. As turned on as I am, I’m also a bit nervous because I’m lacking any experience.
Knox is amazing with his mouth. That has to mean he’s good in bed as well. I’m sure he knows what he’s doing. That thought dampens my mood a bit, but I push it to the side as best I can. Now is not the time to be thinking about his past hookups. Merry didn’t even have any information on the girls he’s been with, but maybe that’s a good thing. I can’t think about anyone else. Nope. I need to focus on the here and now. I know a girl's first time can be a bit painful, but I have no doubt Knox will make it good for me.
The second the car is in park, Knox is out and coming around to open my door. He grabs me, pulling me into his arms. I wrap myself around him, taking his mouth in a kiss. I don’t know how he does it, but before I know it we’re in the house and in his bedroom. I expect him to take me over to the bed, but he doesn't. He sits me down on his dresser instead.
He peers into my eyes. “Something is on your mind. I felt your mood shift in the car. You did it before we left the house tonight, too.” Damn.
Knox must pay closer attention to me than I thought.
“I’m a virgin,” I blurt out.
“Good. Not that it would change anything.” His hands come down on either side of the dresser, caging me in. “I’ll be the only man to know this body, and I promise I’ll make this good for you. I don’t know if this is going to hurt you, but I promise I’ll take any pain away.”
“Never been with a virgin?” I try to keep my tone neutral, but I know I fail in my attempt so I keep going. Why stop now? “The girls in high school were all trying to give theirs to you.” I recall a few actually saying that verbatim. I used to hate listening to them talk about it.
“Have you ever heard about me being with someone?” He stares down at me, actually looking pissed.
“No. I mean, people said you only dated college girls.” I roll my eyes then drop my chin to my chest. He lifts it until my eyes meet his.
“You’ve never heard about me being with anyone, because I’ve neverbeenwith anyone.”
I stare up at him. His words keep playing on a loop in my head because I must have heard him wrong.
“I’m a virgin, Red.”
