Following her down, he trapped her with one thigh wedged between hers. She ground against the muscle.

“Yes! Zach! God, you feel so good against me. Tonight, don’t go back to the bunkhouse. I need you to stay with me.”

Her words broke through his haze of desire. Lifting his head from her breasts he was nuzzling, he met her smoldering stare.

“You’re sure?” His voice rasped on the question.

“Yes. I want to wake up next to you.”

Emotion sent his mind reeling out of control. To bring it back into order, he plucked at her panties to shimmy them down her hips.

“You sure about that? I wake up early to feed the animals.”

She hooked a hand around his nape, dragging him back to her. “I’m sure! Now kiss me. Take me.”

She didn’t have to ask twice.

A song came into his head, the words of a country tune he’d sung time and again at the bonfires on Friday nights back at the Gracey Ranch. One of the ranch hands there always urged him to sing about love and loss and finding love for a second time.

“The moon and the stars…” he crooned and stopped.

Opal fell still underneath him. She cupped his face, her thumb brushing across his lips. “Go on.”

He swallowed the lump in his throat. “They burn so bright. Our hearts find the rhythm. Dancing deep into the night.”

She searched his eyes so long and hard. “Zach…I’m in love with you.”

Emotion overcame him. His heart leaped in joy. Resting his forehead against hers, he let his eyes slip closed.

“Opal…I…”

Shouldn’t say this.

Should leave.

“Love you too.”

And you deserve so much better.

He wasn’t about to let this moment slip away. He captured her mouth. Claimed it.

A soft moan vibrated into him, and he answered with a growl. Their kiss spiraled on and on while she helped him take off his clothes and get a condom in place.

When he lay on his back with her straddling him, he held her by the hips and slowly eased her down over his cock.

Pleasure exploded inside him, the sensation heightened by the way she held his gaze with all the love sparkling in her eyes.

She hitched herself onto her knees, drawing off his cock almost to the tip before plunging down again. Taking him to the hilt.

His balls throbbed for release, but he never wanted this night to end.

As she came around him in clenching waves, he memorized her beautiful face at that moment.

She collapsed forward, and he rolled her over so she rested on her stomach. He stretched out on top of her, his cock poised at her slick pussy from behind.

“Take me, Opal.”

“Yes!”
