Then he got busy, lapping and licking, pulling her swollen clit into his mouth and tormenting it with his teeth and his tongue. As he sucked and nipped Lexie gripped his hair, holding on for dear life. He loved the sexy little sounds she made and the way her body responded to him. She tasted better than the finest drink he'd ever had, and he lapped every wet inch of her.When he sensed her climax was near, he eased two fingers inside her hot channel, then three, sliding them in and out while he continued to torment her clit. And then she exploded, pushing herself up to him, crying out her pleasure. The walls of her pussy gripped his fingers and spasmed around them as she drenched them with her juices. When he sensed the release slowing, he drove her up again, once more taking her over the top, relishing her shouts of satisfaction. He kept his fingers inside her, stroking her inner walls, until the last spasm finally subsided and she went limp beneath his touch.He scattered kisses ov
"You're pretty chipper for someone out carousing all night." Marliss picked up the full mug of coffee Lou had poured, set it on the table in front of Killian, and gave him a narrow-eyed look.He smiled. He'd tried to be as quiet as possible when he came home, but nothing escaped Marliss and Lou."Watching out the window, were you?" He took a fortifying sip of the dark brew."I'm a light sleeper." Without asking, she pulled out a chair and sat down at the table with him. "Lou and me can never sleep until all the chicks are in the barn."Killian laughed. "I think you're mixing your metaphors a little, Marliss. And I hardly think I could be classified as a chick.""You're Dusty's chick. That's what counts.""Yeah? Didn't count for much for a long time, did it?"Marliss slammed her hand down on the table. "I won't let you speak ill of the man. He loved all you boys, and your mamas."Killian quirked an eyebrow. "And his wife, too?"Lou set a plate of bacon and eggs in front of Kill
Killian went back to the beginning of the book. This time, when he turned over the first page, he saw a small sheet of paper had been folded lengthwise and tucked into the crease. His hands shaking slightly, he unfolded it and smoothed it out. Dear Killian,If you are reading this, it means I am gone to whatever reward God has chosen for me. There are so many things I wanted to say to you whenever we were together, but the time was never right.By now, you and your brothers have all the details of the story. I'm sorry this was a big shock to you. It's important for you to know, however, I loved your mother unconditionally and you always held a special place in my heart. I know you have grown up to be a fine young man and do me very proud.I hope you and your brothers will decide to give D. Walker Minerals a chance in your lives, as well as the town of Red Creek. There are many great rewards to be had, and I'm not just discussing money.Anyway, the last thing I want to say is I
Despite how little sleep she'd gotten, Lexie was up at her usual predawn hour to begin her baking. Killian kept her company for a little while, but then he insisted on leaving. He told her he didn't want to subject her to the gossip if people saw him leaving in the daylight hours."I don't care," she kept telling him."But I do." He'd kissed her on the tip of her nose. "There'll be enough tongues wagging as it is. Hell, I'd stand in your window nude with a sign saying Lexie Rocks if I didn't know what the fallout would be. I'm thinking of you, darlin'."She wanted to tell him she was tired of being such a good girl. It was boring. Maybe boring was what she'd wanted when she first came home and opened the coffee shop, but she was ready for a little spice. And Killian Walker was definitely her choice from the spice rack, even if he would be gone by the end of the week.But what if I can get him to change his mind?She gave herself a mental smack. Trying to nail him to Red Creek was
Despite the early rush of business and a steady stream of customers after that, the morning passed so slowly, Lexie wondered if someone had tied cement on the movement of time. She had glanced at the clock for maybe the hundredth time when the jangling bell signaled the door opening again. She turned away from the back counter where she'd been restocking the machines in time to see Killian walk into the shop.She felt as if the sun had come out, casting its golden glow on everything and surrounding them with a shimmering heat. The same heat she felt when she and Killian made love."Morning." The scar at the corner of his mouth dimpled when he grinned at her."Morning to you. The usual?"He laughed. "Am I getting predictable?""You know what they say," she told him. "Predictability is a good foundation.""They also say there is pleasure in the unexpected." He winked. "Maybe the best thing is a mixture of both.""Maybe. So on that note, would you like a couple of slices of coffee
Killian slept little, and he knew it was more than just a strange bed. Hell, he'd slept in line shacks and on the ground in a bedroll. No, it was the image blasting into his brain every time he closed his eyes. The image of a sexy, tempting blonde with curls he wanted to run his fingers through and hazel eyes with intriguing gold flecks in them. It was the body that even in semi-sleep his hands kept reaching for, molding the shape of mouthwatering breasts. And the sweet, sweet pussy with its neatly trimmed adornment of dark-blonde hair. He could still feel her tongue in his mouth and the grasp of her inner walls around his cock, the intense shudders of the most powerful climax he'd ever had. It was a smile both innocent and sultry, and the easy manner surrounding it all.He woke from a very erotic dream, embarrassed to find his fingers wrapped around his cock, stroking the swollen shaft. Groaning, he finished himself off in the shower, resisting the temptation to bang his head against
Elaine leaned forward, bracing her arms on the desk, all humor gone from her face. "You listen to me, Killian Walker. Your daddy loved you boys, and he loved your mamas. Yes, it was an unusual situation, but he did right by all of you. The will was structured to give you a way to bond together. That was very important to him."Killian just shook his head. "This is a no-win conversation, Elaine, and I like you too much to get in a fight with you about it.""Then what about Lexie?"He drew his brows together. "What about her?""Couldn't she be enough to convince you to hang around here?"He snapped the rubber band. "You think I'd make good husband material, Elaine? How long before I'd be off cheating on her, and maybe with more than one woman?"She pinned him with her dark-brown eyes. "First of all, I'll say again Dusty's situation was unique. Second of all, if you were able to love a woman half as good as he did, try to be a father as hard as he did, I'd say any woman-especially L
Parking the SUV behind Lexie's building, he took the stairs two at a time. When he reached the landing, he stopped for a moment to settle himself before he knocked on the door. When it opened, for a moment, he was struck so dumb he couldn't breathe. He was sure his heart had stopped beating. Every intention he'd lectured himself on for tonight melted like butter on a hot biscuit. Lexie was barefoot, her graceful toes decorated with purple nail polish. Instead of a dress or jeans, she wore a pair of short jeans shorts and a halter top offering a great view of her cleavage. Her familiar jasmine scent made his hormones sit up and beg, and his cock was already yelling for attention.Her eyes widened when she saw the bouquet. "For me? Wow! You sure do know how to sweep a girl off her feet." She held out her hand for them.Killian blinked and remembered to give them to her."Would you like to come in? I don't think I can serve dinner out here on the landing." Mischief sparkled in her eyes
