Catching the Cowboy Read online

  I roll my eyes and squeal when he lowers his hands and smacks my ass. “But we’re here now, so let’s not waste another minute…”

  Before I can respond, Diesel lifts me over his shoulder caveman style. I squeal as I hang down his back, yelling at him to put me down.

  He smacks my ass before tossing me on the bed. “You still think I’m sweet?” he mocks.

  I laugh, wrapping my legs around his waist and pulling him on top of me. “I didn’t mean it as a bad thing.”

  “Mm-hmm…” He smirks before cupping my face and pressing his lips to mine.

  Arching my back, I lean my hips into him, feeling how hard he is against his jeans. Grinning, I inhale the scent of his cologne and groan at the anticipation of getting to be with him all night long—without worrying we’ll get caught.

  “I don’t want to wait, Adam,” I tell him, sliding my hands up his chest and undoing a button. “I’m dying and want you inside me.”

  “Fuck, Row,” he growls against my mouth. “I have a whole night planned out for us…but shit.”

  I chuckle, and when he leans back, we lock eyes. Sucking in my lips, I reach for his belt buckle and zipper. He’s hard, and when I slide my hand into his jeans, I wrap my palm around his cock through his boxers.

  Stroking him, I watch as he unbuttons his shirt as we keep our gazes on one another. My heart pounds hard in my chest as the reality of what’s about to happen seeps in. Even though he’s been “Diesel” to me my whole life, Adam makes me anxious by how quickly we’re growing close. I want to give him all of me, but I’m so scared of giving my heart away again.

  Once his shirt is off, I help him remove my sundress and bra. “You’re so beautiful, Row. I’m one lucky man.”

  I swallow hard and smile. “You’re not so bad to look at either.”

  “I’ve caught you checking me out a few times.” He winks with a smug grin. “Drooling over the eight-pack.”

  “Oh my God!” I burst out laughing. “Just like when you drool over my ass.”

  “Damn straight!”

  I wrap my legs around his waist and move his lips back to mine. Rocking my hips against his, I moan at the friction our bodies create, so damn eager for more.

  Diesel pushes his cock against my pussy, and I’m desperate to tear off our remaining clothes and climb him like a damn tree. “Boxers. Off. Now,” I demand, panting.

  He moves back slightly, grabbing both of my wrists and putting them above my head. “Not so fast, baby.”

  I’m seconds away from begging. “What? Why?”

  “Because I’ve been waiting years for this, and I’m not about to rush my time with you.” He wraps one hand around both my wrists and moves his free hand down between my breasts. “I’m taking it nice and slow. Gonna devour every inch of your soft skin and make sure I mark every part of you properly.”

  Shivers run down my spine at the anticipation and desperation for everything he’s willing to give me. I want it all.

  “Adam…don’t tease me,” I plead.

  “Oh, I’m going to have you beggin’, sweet Row.” The corner of his lips tilts up in a cocky, assured smirk as he circles my nipple with the pad of his finger. “It’s the only way I’ll know you really want me as much as I want you.”

  “You know I do,” I tell him. “I’m going insane!”

  “Let me taste you first.”

  He guides himself down my body and widens my legs as he settles between them, peeking up at me with a knowing grin. Then he kisses the sensitive part of my thigh, and my eyes roll to the back of my head.

  Switching to my other thigh, he does the same and shoves his hands under my ass, pulling me closer to his mouth.

  “Fuck,” he mutters as he nuzzles his nose against my clit. “Hope you aren’t attached to this.”

  Before I can respond, he grabs both sides of my thong and rips it completely off my body.

  Holy. Fucking. Shit.

  My eyes widen in shock, and without another word, he slides his tongue up my slit and buries his face in my pussy. I don’t have anything to compare his skills to, but he’s a fucking pro. His mouth and tongue feel amazing as he drives me closer to the edge.

  “Adam…yes, yes, yes,” I pant as my fingers tug his hair, and my back arches. “Don’t stop.”

  He pushes a finger inside, and when he sucks my clit, I unravel against his mouth. It’s intense, and I’m still flying high when he adds a second finger.

  Diesel’s groans are such a turn-on. Knowing he’s feasting on me like his favorite meal, I want more of him, and I don’t ever want him to stop.

  My hands fist the blankets as I jerk my hips up and down, so close to another release. My body responds to him so strongly and it drives me wild every time he touches me.

  “That’s my girl,” he praises as another orgasm rocks through my core.

  “Please don’t stop,” I plead. “I want you inside me, now.”

  “Patience…” He presses his lips to my stomach. “I’m just getting started with you.”

  Diesel’s hot mouth kisses up my body and cups my breast before sucking on my nipple. He gives them equal attention, massaging and licking each one. Every inch of me is on fire, desperate and greedy for all of him.

  My arms wrap around his body, being as close to him as I can. He’s muscular and hard, but he touches me so softly and sweet.

  Diesel roll his hips, grinding his dick harder against me, and I groan. “That’s not fair.” My head falls to the side as he kisses up my neck.

  “This is what you do to me, Row,” he whispers in my ear. “You make me crazy. For years. I couldn’t stop wanting you even when I fuckin’ tried.”

  “Adam…”

  He moves his mouth to mine. “I tried to get over you. Tried to date other women. Tried to have feelings for someone else so I could erase the ones I had for you.”

  My eyes water at his confession. “I’m so happy you didn’t…” I say softly.

  “It never worked anyway. My heart is yours. Always has been. I was just waiting for you to catch me.”

  I palm his cheeks and hold his face. I never thought I’d say these words to him, but I mean them wholeheartedly. “You have mine too. I’m falling for you faster than I could’ve ever imagined, but I’m not going anywhere now that I know these feelings are real.”

  “I’ve been falling for you for years, baby, but harder than I could’ve predicted.”

  Diesel kisses me passionately, pressing our bodies together as our hands explore each other. He pulls back and stands, removing his jeans and boxers. My breathing increases as I watch him grab a condom from his wallet, then strokes himself and slides it on.

  He stares at me, moving his eyes down my chest, stomach, legs. Then he meets my gaze with a smirk. “So fucking gorgeous.”

  “You better get over here before I do the job for you…” I tease, sliding my hand down to my clit. It’s been throbbing since the second he touched me.

  “Like hell you will, woman.” Approaching the edge of the bed, he wraps his hands around each of my ankles, then gently yanks me down until my ass is nearly hanging off the mattress.

  I squeal, hanging onto the covers. “What’re you doing?”

  “Making sure my hands are the only ones pleasuring you.”

  He strokes his cock a few times before lining it up to my entrance. My chest rises and falls faster; the anticipation mixes with desire as he pushes inside.

  Diesel grips my thigh and pulls it up around his waist as he goes deeper. He feels so thick and hard as I widen my hips and take all of him.

  “Oh my God…” My head rolls back, the sensation already too much.

  “Jesus, Row,” he groans, slowly sliding out before returning. I dig my nails into his biceps, enjoying how tight he feels inside me. “So goddamn wet.”

  My other leg wraps around him, and I lock my ankles behind him. He places a hand on the bed next to me while his other cups my breast and squeezes. “You feel amazing.”

  I can’t even form words around my heavy breathing and moaning, but I smile when our lips meet.

  As I rock my hips against him, our bodies form a perfect rhythm as our hands and lips touch and kiss everywhere we can. Diesel increases his pace, grabbing my waist and controlling the speed. He’s sculpted to pure perfection, and I could stare at him all day as he drives us further to the ledge.

  He brings his hand between us and rubs my clit. It’s the sweetest torture I’ve ever felt, and even though I’m close, I don’t want this to end.

  “That feels so good,” I moan, pinching my nipples. “I’m so close…”

  “Yes, baby. I wanna feel you come on my dick,” he says, his voice rough and deep, almost sliding all the way out before he drives back in. He’s so deep, my legs shake at how hard he’s fucking me.

  Diesel continues circling my clit, and when my back flies off the bed, he slows his pace and whispers sweet things as I ride out my climax.

  “Not gonna lie, that was fuckin’ sexy.”

  His cocky smile makes me laugh.

  Pulling out, he nods toward the headboard. “Scoot up.”

  Once I’m settled in the middle of the bed, he climbs up my body and lifts my leg to his shoulder. When he’s back inside me, I gasp for air as he thrusts harder.

  “Faster,” I beg.

  Moments later, my body tightens and shakes as another orgasm rocks through me. I’ve never had more than one during sex, but Diesel’s changed the game for me in more ways than one. He’s changed everything.

  It’s not long before Diesel’s groaning out his release and burying his face in my neck.

  “Jesus fuck,” he grunts with a laugh. He falls to my side, and we look at each other with big, satisfied smiles on our faces. Leaning in, he brushes the hair out of my face with a grin. “Wow. That was…incredible.”

  “My thoughts exactly.” I chuckle while trying to catch my breath. The way he looks at me has my heart pounding, but not because of what we just did. Diesel stares at me as though he actually sees the real me.

  I wish I knew where we go from here, how we’ll announce the news, and what it’ll mean for his friendship with my brother. Diesel’s been a part of my life for years, and I can’t imagine him not in it.

  Leaning forward, I brush my lips against his, and we kiss slowly. He lets me take the lead as I slide my tongue inside and capture his with my teeth, smiling as his hand moves down to my ass, then smacks it.

  “I think we’re gonna be late for our reservations if we don’t get out of this bed,” I tell him after twenty minutes of us making out and teasing each other. He got up to dispose of the condom, but then climbed right back into bed next to me.

  “Probably,” he says, shifting our bodies until I’m straddling and leaning over him. “But knowing how you look underneath me will distract me too much, so you better ride me to help me focus.”

  “I don’t think that’s how that works…” I mock, grinding my pussy against his bare cock between us.

  “Or we could just order room service and stay naked the rest of the night,” he counters.

  “Now that’s a deal I’m willing to accept.”

  By the next morning, my entire body feels like I’ve run a marathon. Every inch of me is sore but in the most delicious way. Knowing it’s from having sex with Diesel all night and into the early morning has me smiling like a damn fool. The man is insatiable, and I’ve never experienced anything like it before.

  After I rode him for our second round, we ordered food and ate while talking and laughing in bed. It was actually quite sweet how attentive he was and all the memories he recounted of us as kids.

  Our third round was him bending me over, but when my legs gave out, he slid behind me so my back was to his chest, then fucked me until I nearly went blind.

  We finally passed out sometime after three a.m., and our fourth round was in the shower before we had to check out at noon. The entire night feels like a dream come true, one I wish didn’t have to end, but when Diesel drives us back to Wyatt’s house, I know we’re back to hiding and sneaking around.

  “Say something to piss me off,” I tell him after he opens the door to my car.

  “What?” He laughs, putting my bag inside.

  “If I go back all euphoric and happy, my cousins and parents will start asking questions. So I need a reason to wipe this smile off my face,” I explain, knowing how ridiculous I sound, but it’s true. “They’re already suspicious, and I won’t be able to hide the way I feel unless I lock myself in my room all week.”

  “Guess that makes two of us. The guys will be all over my ass. You’re better at telling me off, so you say something to piss me off instead.”

  I groan. “We’re not gonna be convincing at all.”

  He closes the gap between us, brushing his finger over my cheek to fix my hair. “It’ll be alright. If they find out, they find out. I can handle Riley.”

  “And my dad?” I add.

  “He loves me!” We both laugh because it’s true. My dad treats Diesel like a second son, but he wouldn’t think twice about hounding Diesel for dating his only daughter.

  “And my grandma, my cousins, and my uncles. All their opinions and comments.”

  “Don’t care.” He shrugs. “I’ve been telling them for years I’d finally get you.”

  Wrapping my arms around his waist, I rest my chin on his chest. “That’s true, you did. Kinda like a stalker.”

  He kisses the tip of my nose. “Stalkers need love too.”

  I snort, and we break apart, knowing I have to get home before my mom and dad send out a search party for me.

  “I’m gonna hang out with Wyatt for a bit so we don’t arrive at the ranch at the same time,” he tells me as I sit in the driver’s seat of my car. “Text me when you’re back home.”

  “I will.” I start the engine and stick out my lower lip, pouting that our weekend’s over.

  “Don’t be sad. I’ll see you soon,” he promises. Then he kisses me one final time before I leave, my heart racing as I think about what an amazing night we had and how I hope this never ends.

  It’s one thirty when I finally make it home. I missed church and know my mom is gonna give me shit for it, but luckily, no one’s at the house yet. Diesel and I showered this morning, but I go ahead and take another one with my fruity body wash to make sure his scent doesn’t linger on my skin. Though I love the way he smells after he showers.

  Once I’m dressed and make a cup of coffee, I check my phone and see a message from him and a group text message from Elle and Maize.

  Diesel: Confession: I stole your ripped thong for my spank bank.

  Rowan: You’re really adding to your stalker resume.

  Diesel: I’m also sniffing them while picturing your tits bouncing in my face.

  My cheeks heat at his words. He’s so blunt, and it turns me on. I’ve not really sexted before. Nick could hardly perform in the bedroom, and his skills didn’t land in texting either.

  Rowan: Oh yeah? I’d shove them into your mouth while riding your cock so you could taste and feel me at the same time.

  Diesel: Jesus, now I’m hard as fuck again. Which is really awkward with Wyatt playing video games next to me. He’s already giving me shit for looking like a stoned-out rodeo clown.

  I giggle as I imagine how uncomfortable he must be not being able to take care of himself right now.

  Rowan: It wasn’t awkward before with you sniffing my panties?

  Diesel: He wasn’t looking then.

  Rowan: Mm-hmm. Well, good luck with that. It’s safe for you to come back now and touch yourself in the shower.

  Diesel: Don’t give me any more ideas…though I’ve been jerking off to thoughts of you since I was a teenager, so it’d be nothing new.

  Rowan: You just went from sexy stalker to weird creeper.

  Diesel: So I shouldn’t tell you about the love letter I wrote you when I was in eighth grade?

  Rowan: You did
not!

  Diesel: I swear! I was infatuated with you. Still am ;)

  Rowan: Stop being so damn sweet when I was such a brat to you. I feel so bad when I think about all the times I was mean to you.

  Diesel: Don’t worry…I took it as flirting. You just weren’t very good at it :)

  I snort, chuckling in relief. He’s the easiest person to talk to and always knows what to say to keep me laughing.

  Rowan: Har har. You’re seriously ridiculous sometimes.

  Diesel: You’ve always adored me, admit it.

  Rowan: Ha! Gotta go! Elle and Maize want me to hang out, so I gotta put my game face on.

  Diesel: If it helps, I’m picturing you naked right now.

  Rowan: That absolutely does not help. Asshole.

  I click to the group message so they don’t think I’m ignoring them.

  Elizabeth: I gotta help birth a calf. The mama is having some complications. You two wanna come and help?

  Maize: Where’s Dr. VetDreamy?

  Elizabeth: On another job, which is why I gotta go solo.

  Rowan: I just took a shower…

  Maize: I’m hungover from last night.

  Elizabeth: OMG you guys suck! I just need some extra hands.

  Maize: Take Ethan.

  Rowan: Or Kenzie.

  Elizabeth: Meet me at the B&B in 10 minutes. Both of you!

  I laugh because Maize and I were only joking. She knows we’ll come. Grabbing my rubber boots and keys, I head to my car and drive over.
