“Nice and slow,” he demanded.

She slowed her breathing, concentrating onpushing air in and out and the feel of his fingers massaging her neck. Whenshe no longer felt like she was going to throw up or faint, she straightenedslowly. He was still cupping the back of her neck and she stared up at him mutelyas he studied her.

She was suddenly aware of how close he wasstanding to her. Her breasts were nearly brushing against him and the heat ofhis body felt like it was warming her to her core. Her nipples tightened andher pussy tingled in an unfamiliar but decidedly enjoyable way.

Addison! Say thank you and leave!

“I – thank you for rescuing me,” shewhispered.

He cocked his head and studied her for amoment longer before leaning down, his deep voice a low rasp. “If you weremine, you’d always be safe.”

His words made the muscles of her pussyclench in agonizing pleasure. For a moment, she could almost imagine what itwould be like to belong to this man. To know that he would always take care ofher, to know that every night he would take her to his bed and show her morepleasure than she could ever imagine. Her lips parted at the thought of beingnaked underneath him and Preacher’s gaze dropped to her mouth.

“Do you know what you do to me, Sunshine?”he said.

Before she could reply, his hard mouth wason hers and his tongue was pushing past her lips to take what belonged to him.

What he was doing was all sorts of wrong.The schoolteacher had a goddamn fiancé and here he was shoving his tongue downher throat. Preacher pulled away with regret. He wasn’t going to stealanother man’s woman – not even a douche like Harrison Frank – no matter howmuch he wanted her.

Of course, he hadn’t counted on the littleschoolteacher standing on her tiptoes, fisting her hands in his shirt, and mashingher mouth back onto his. At the first tentative swipe of her tongue againsthis lips, he groaned and reached down to grip her ass with both hands. He liftedher and she wrapped her legs around his waist as he pushed her against the walland angled his mouth over hers. He kissed her hard, exploring every inch ofher warm mouth with his tongue as his hands squeezed and kneaded her perfect ass.

Fuck she tasted good. He kissed down herthroat, nipping at the soft skin before sucking on the spot where her neck mether shoulder. If he applied even a little more pressure it would leave a mark.He sucked hard and then ground his erection against her crotch. The littlegasp she made sent his lust into overdrive.

He dry-humped her against the wall,pressing rhythmically against her pussy as he shoved his hands under her dressand caressed her ass through her soft panties. He curled his fingers around thewaistband. All it would take was one tug to rip them off. Once she was barefor him, he could unzip his jeans, pull out his dick, and he’d be balls-deep inher hot pussy with one twist of his hips. He’d bet his left nut she was wetfor him. The way she was rocking her pussy against his dick made it more thanobvious she wanted to be fucked.

His hand tightened around her panties butbefore he could go any further the door to the pub opened. He froze againstthe wall, his brain screaming at him as Grace stared wide-eyed at them.

“Preacher? What are you doing to Addie?”

With a wince, he dropped Addison to herfeet and backed away. She was panting, her cheeks red and her eyes bright witha combination of lust and embarrassment. His dick throbbing in his pants, hepushed past Grace without saying a word and went into the pub.

Chapter Four

Addison knocked on Gideon and Grace’s frontdoor. The booming bark of Gideon’s Great Dane, Tank, rang out from the backyard. Her hands were trembling, and she kind of wanted to turn and sprint backto her car, but she stayed where she was. Grace drove her home last night fromthe Thirsty Beaver and after Addison refused to talk about what Grace saw herdoing with Preacher, she made Addison promise to come over today after Grace finishedher shift at the dental clinic.

The door opened and Grace smiled at her. “Hey,honey. Come in.”

She followed Grace down the hallway andtoward the back yard. She could see Tank bouncing around in front of the doorand she braced herself for his enthusiastic greeting as she stepped out intothe yard.

Tail wagging and bum wiggling, Tank crowdedup against her, his one hundred-and-seventy-five-pound body nearly knocking heron her ass. Grace grabbed her arm to steady her when Addie staggered back.

“Tank, go on.”

“It’s okay.” Addison petted Tank’s head.He was so tall that all he had to do was lift his head to sniff her chin. “Hi,buddy. Who’s a good boy?”

His tail wagged harder and Grace patted himon the hip. “Okay, you said hi. Go lay down, big guy.”

Tank wandered away to the patch of eveningsun that beamed down on the far corner of the yard. Grace handed Addison aglass of wine and sat down in one of the deck chairs. “Sit down, babe.”

“Where’s Gideon?” Addison sat in the chairnext to Grace.

“He’s working the late shift this weekend.”

“Oh, right, you told me that.” She toyedwith the bracelets around her waist and took a big gulp of wine. Cricketschirped and Grace swatted at a mosquito.

“How was work?” Addison said.
