Will time apart save his new bond? Or will someone else save his heart.
View MoreMISSY POV I sigh before placing the rake back on the hook in the tack room.The barn is as spotless as a barn can be. I have spent the last three hours cleaning every stall and sweeping every unseen-forgoten corner. The busy-work kept my mind only partially off of Boyd and the fact he hasn't contacted me yet. Now I have nothing to distract me and I can already feel the sorrow creeping into my bones. I bite my lip and slip my hands into the front pockets of my favorite jeans. I don't need to hide in the tack room the barn is empty except for the animals. Hank and the others finished their jobs hours ago, but I feel sheltered and safe in the dark room.I know going home won't be good for me. Mom and Dad will ask about Boyd and my fragile resolve will shatter into a million pieces. I honestly don't know what to do or where to go. I can't hide here forever. "Missy," I hear someone call and I jump a little.I poke my head out of the tack room to see who has come looking for me to fi
MISSY POV I sigh again before picking up my phone and calling the vet. I need to stop worrying about why Boyd hasn't called me and focus on work. I schedule the vet's visit and leave my small office. It isn't much of an office just a desk in a clean storage closet in the barn. It was originally intended to be an extra-small tack room, but every foreman Davidson has had has used it as an office. I look around and see no one, but I know I am not alone. Hank and a few others should be finishing their morning chores. "He says he will be out in a few hours," I call out into the quiet barn, knowing wherever Hank is, he can probably hear me. Two male pack members come out of the big tack room when they hear me and send me a wave before leaving the barn through the back door. Their chores for the morning must be done and their breakfast is waiting for them in the pack house. Hanging out with the grouchy foreman until the vet arrives probably doesn't sound as appealing as breakfast.
BOYD POV "Wait so you plan on taking the big accomplished bull to Gray Ranch? Why does Davidson get the young bull that hasn't proven himself? What if he throws huge calves? Is this what partnership means to you?" Missy demands to know with her hands on her hips, and the stupid dick in my pants twitches to life. Her easy-to-ignite temper is turning me on, and we don't have time for distractions. The sale lasted for a while and the yards are clearing out. Most trucks have already left with their loads. This moment is already tense for us because we are parting ways for who knows how long and all I want to do is pull her into my arms. Humans aren't like shifters. They don't pair for life. She might like me today, but she might not in two weeks. I am absolutely terrified that I have fallen for someone who won't want a lasting commitment. The bulls and where they should be going aren't important to me at all. "You want me to take the younger bull back to Wyoming, I will. Just tell me
MISSY POV "I need coffee, I need clothes... Well, we need a ride," Larry mutters, and I roll my eyes at his pissiness. "I forgot I had the truck, okay. Geez," I mumble and Hank laughs. "Boyd, is that distracting, huh?" he says, and I blush red as the memories of last night fill my mind. "Shut up," I say, and Hank only laughs louder. Larry joins in after a few seconds and I know I am forgiven. Larry can't hold back from laughter for too long. He is just too happy a guy to hold a grudge. I smile at him in the mirror and then my mind jumps back to the sale. My stress about today's prices has consumed me since I woke up cradled against Boyd's chest. I want everything to go perfectly. I want the best steer for the lowest price and I want our partnership with Gray Ranch sealed. I want Boyd to respect me as a woman and as a business partner.... Shit! I forgot to take my medication. Spending the night in the truck and then rushing back to the hotel to get ready really screwed up my
