“No, Amber.” There’s anger in my voice, though I don’t mean it. I’m frustrated with myself. “I’ve been fantasizing about you for years, too. I’d come up to that house where you and Jed lived, and I’d look through the god damn windows to catch a glimpse of you. That time you ran into me at the grocery store… that was because I followed you there. Why else would I be in Wyoming?”
“You said there were parts you had to pick up for your bike.”
“No, Amber.” I smile. “There was only you. I needed to see you. I’ve been in love with you for years. Knowing you were with him, killed me.” I swallow hard and help her to her feet from the bed. “But we can’t be together. So, this conversation, and whatever this physical thing is… can’t happen.”
She stands in front of me, short and glowing. “Why can’t this be our secret? We can stop the world right here, right now. I want you to be my first, my last, my everything.”
My cock throbs at the thought of pushing into her tight little pussy for the first time. I cup her face in my hand. “If I fuck you Amber, you’re mine. I couldn’t let you go after that. Once would never be enough. What happens then? You know who your father is just as well as I do.”
“I know he’s a gruff guy, but I also know he runs like a dozen charities. You guys are building that lodge at Balsam Creek and so much more.” She sighs. “He has a good heart. He loves you and he loves me. When we decide to tell him, he’ll understand.”
I laugh. “While I appreciate your positive outlook, I’ve seen a different side of the man, and I beg to differ. It’s selfish to take you, Amber. Especially tonight. You’ve been through a lot.”
“You aren’t taking me, Kane! I’m giving myself to you.” A tear rolls down her cheek. “I’ve wanted you for so long.”
My breath picks up, and every second is like a thousand years. I’m frozen in time, and I fear I’ll never be free unless I make her mine.
She stares up at me with honey brown eyes that were meant for me. Despite the way that the world would look at us together…I know she was made for me.
My jaw tenses and I lift her from the ground, pushing her between my body and the wall as I kiss her neck.
Her legs wrap around my waist and her ankles hook behind me.
My cock is rock hard and every movement I make is outside of myself. It’s primal, wild, and without thought for consequence.
My length prods between her thighs and she whispers softly in my ear, “Fuck me, Kane. I’m desperate to feel you.” There’s a whine in her tone that has a direct line to my ego, and it works.
I bare my teeth next to her ear, growling low as her hand grazes my cock. “Are you sure you can handle this?”
She sighs and her small hand unbuttons my jeans. “Let’s find out.”
Chapter Seven
Amber
I lean back against the wall as Kane kisses my neck and scrapes his teeth against my shoulders.
“I need you to say you want this for good, Amber. I can’t do one night with you.”
I brush my lips against him playfully. “I promise that I’m yours forever, no matter what. I won’t let another man touch me.”
He bends into my lips with an animalistic glow behind his eyes before he loses control and kisses me. It’s gentle at first, soft even. But as heat builds between us, the kiss deepens, and my skin turns hot as heat pools between my legs.
“I know we’re taking what we can,” he growls, “but I won’t keep you some dirty little secret, Amber.”
My breath hitches at the way he calls me his‘dirty little secret.’I realize he’s saying that’snotwhat he wants, and that I shouldn’t like it, but I do. Maybe it’s the day, and I’m losing my mind. Maybe this is another dream and I’ll wake up still trapped in that house with Jed.
“What’s that look?” Kane growls.
“I’m happy to be your dirty little anything.”
His hand shifts to my ass and he sucks my tongue as I swallow down groan after gravelly groan. I’ve never wanted anything more. He’s huge, rough, and I’m desperate to know what he feels like pressing inside of me.
“I’m getting close to the edge, Amber,” he growls. “I won’t be able to turn back and there’s so much in the way. I don’t have a condom. It’s your first time. We should make it special and—”
I whimper at the thought of giving myself to him. “If you don’t fuck me now, I’m going to explode.”
His eyes glaze over and the low growl he’s had in his throat rushes through his lips like an out-of-control bull. I fall back on the bed, and he slides my panties off slowly, smelling them before he tosses them back.
