Page 47 of Loving My Cowboys

“But—”

“How do you think we would have felt if something happened to you today?”

How could they misconstrue something so badly? All she had wanted to do was protect them, stop the sheriff and even Jim White from harming her men.

“He was going to arrest you for a murder we know you didn’t commit. You’re my men. Of course, I’m going to stand up for you. Just like you stand up for me.”

Seth took her and placed her over his knee.

Smack! His palm hit her cheeks and not in an easy, playful manner.

Smack! “Don’t you ever get between us and the sheriff ever again. We could handle the situation without your help. All you did was endanger all of us, when you got off your horse and started toward them.”

Smack! Fire radiated from her cheeks as tears welled in her eyes.

“Do you understand why we’re upset?” Will asked.

“No, I only wanted to protect the two of you,” she said. “How do you think my life would be without you here by my side. I can’t go through being all alone again. You are my men, my life.”

Smack! Seth’s palm connected once again.

This time she could not hold back the tears any longer. They rolled down her cheeks.

Seth raised her and cradled her on his lap.

“You must obey us, for your own safety,” he said.

She sobbed on his shoulder and he rubbed her back. “You are my men. I love you and would die protecting you.”

Seth leaned back and kissed her on the mouth, his lips moving over hers in a gentle way. Then he released her and gazed in her eyes. “I love you with all my heart and you scared me today. When those men cocked their guns, I thought we were all going to die, because I would never let a single one of them live, if they killed you.”

She leaned her head against his shoulder and hugged him.

Then he passed her to Will. “Honey, I love you and you scared me so badly. Never do that again.”

She hiccupped. “I’m sorry, I frightened you, but I was fighting mad and wanted to protect the love we have.”

“Let us do the protecting,” Seth said.

“Yes, or you’ll be spanked again,” Will promised.

“Seth, you really spanked me.”

“Yes, I did. But I would never harm you. Does it hurt?”

What could she say? It burned a little, but there was a fire raging inside her that he’d created.

“A little, but mainly you made me want you so badly, I can’t stand it.”

Seth put his fingers between her legs and up her cunny.

“She’s soaking wet,” he said with a grin. “Oh, honey, I love that you get so excited.”

Will kissed her, his mouth moving over hers, causing her to groan with need.

When they broke apart, he gazed at her. “On your knees.”

On the bed she crawled onto her knees. With a quick glance behind her, she saw Seth had another plug and was greasing it up.
