Page 86 of On His Ranch

“God, yes. Baby, yes,” Chase groaned. Then his body tightened beneath her before his cum spurted inside her. He had to press a closed fist against his mouth to stifle his bellow.If things keep continuing in this direction, I havegotto get my own place!

Piper was grinning down at him, seeming pretty pleased with herself.

“Get down here,” he growled. And before she could obey, he lifted her down and cradled her beside him.

Still smiling, Piper clung to him and closed her eyes.

“You’re a firecracker, aren’t-cha?”

“Not something I’ve ever been accused of before,” she murmured, looking very much like a cat who’d feasted on cream.

Chase buried his face in her neck and nibbled. “Get some sleep.”

“I’m not tired,” she protested, but the words came out soft and lacking conviction.

“Shh.” Chase was asleep before he heard her answer.

Chapter 17

When Chase awoke the next morning, he immediately realized he’d overslept. The last time he’d done that was the day after he’d been diagnosed with the flu.Shit. Senior’s gonna have my head for this.

Still, he was as quiet as possible as he disentangled himself from Piper who was still sleeping. He even allowed himself a minute to gaze at her. She reallydidlook much younger while she slept. When he realized that the sight of her was stirring him again, he reluctantly turned away.

If I’d gotten up earlier, maybe…

He was full of regret by the time he managed to get dressed and downstairs.

“Mornin’,” his mom greeted him as he blazed through the kitchen. “How about—”

“No time, Ma,” he answered as he shot out the door. He was practically sprinting by the time he found Senior.

“Mornin’.”

“Sorry I’m late, I—”

“I’ma stop you right there, and it’s not just ‘cus you’re out of breath,” his grandfather said, chuckling. “There are some things I don’t need to hear.”

“Sorry,” he said again. “It won’t happen again.” He grabbed a nearby rake and began working on the nearby loose straw.

“You can’t be sure o’ that.”

He kept raking, avoiding the older man’s gaze. “Sure I can.”

“Well, why would you want to?”

Confused, he looked up from his work. “I don’t understand.”

“It’s not a bad thing, havin’ someone to come home to.”

“Sure, but I still intend to put the ranch first. You don’t need to worry about that. Or anything. I—”

“I’m not worried about the ranch, son. You’re the one who keeps makin’ it the be-all-end-all. You can’t live like that.”

Chase’s brow furrowed. “What are you talkin’ about, Senior? That’s how you ran it your whole life.”

Senior chuckled, but it was oddly without humor. “No, son, that’s how I ran ityourwhole life. By the time you and your ma came to stay, my Pamela was gone.”

“Grandma. Right, I knew that, but—”
