Snowed In: A Naughty Tale

“Colter!” She cries and the damn dog begins howling in tune to her cries from its spot on the sofa.

As soon as Oaklynn goes limp from her pleasure, I grip her hips and pull down into me as I thrust rapidly up into

her. When my balls finally release, white stars flash in front of my eyes and my lungs seize.

“Fuck me, woman.” I hiss as she continues to pulse around my cock.

“I thought we just did that?” She giggles on my chest.

Reaching down, I pinch her ass and she yelps. “Smart ass.”

Her soft sigh as she relaxes into me entices my own body to unwind as we lay listening to the wind and fire. The soft snoring from the dog as she calms back down only adds to the ambiance of the atmosphere.

“Colter?” Oaklynn’s tired voice penetrates the silence.

“Yeah baby?”

“What did this mean?”

For such quiet words, they sure pack one hell of a punch.

“What do you want this to mean?” I could have played dumb and brushed her off but I’m too old for such juvenile games. Especially with her, when she means so damn much to me.

Pushing off my chest, she sits up and pulls the blanket around her shoulders. Covering the incredible view should be illegal.

“If I told you forever, would it scare you?” She won’t meet my eyes as she speaks, so I sit up and move her off my lap to sit in front of me.

“You don’t think I’m too old for you?” There’s a decade and a half separating us and while I know exactly what I want, that doesn’t mean she does.

Her look is dissecting as she tries to decipher what I’m feeling before answering and I know my face gives nothing away. “I never gave our ages a thought before. But am I too young for you?”

“You want my honest answer, Oaklynn?”

Her bottom lip quivers as she forces her eyes to meet mine. “No.”

I knew it. I just knew everything he said and did was too good to be true and still I allowed my foolish heart to engage with him. I wanted so badly for Colter to love me as much as I’ve loved him for so long.

“You’re going to get it anyways.” His voice is rough, almost angry and I can’t seem to break the hold he has on my eyes. “From the minute you turned seventeen you’ve been mine. Your parents knew it. Every boy who every tried to ask you out knew it too. I knew it. The only one who didn’t know, was you.”

“I don’t understand.” My heart is thundering in my ears as my brain processes his words.

“I waited for you for as long as I could Oaklynn, this, today, was the answer to every damn prayer I’ve been throwing at the universe since the day you turned eighteen. The only question left unanswered now is whether you can be happy in a small town with the Sheriff who has no plans of leaving.” His head tilts to the side to watch me as Marble flops onto the floor and crawls into my lap, watching me, as if she understands what we’re saying.

Slightly speechless, I brush my fingers through Marbles fur and swallow the lump forming in my throat.

“I’ve only ever wanted one thing in my life, Colter.”

“What’s that?”

“You.”

“Woof!” Marble jumps into our lap, making sure her presence hasn’t been forgotten.

Scratching her ears, I lean forward, and she kisses my face. “And Marble, can’t forget her.” A flutter blossoms in my chest as she closes her eyes and leans into my touch, like she knew what I was saying.

Colter’s silence is unnerving, so I continue petting the puppy until his hand grasps my chin and lifts my face to meet his stare.

“I’ve searched almost my entire life for a woman like you Oaklynn.” His voice is husky.
