Maddie giggled as they watched her leave.
“I saw Chad today.”
“My ex Chad?”
“Yes.”
She wrinkled her nose. “Do I even want to know?”
“He’s leaving town.”
“He is? What about Emily?”
“I don’t think she’s leaving. In fact, he said that he regretted ever getting with her. That he didn’t realize that the only reason she wanted him was because you did. He said he liked you.”
“Oh.”
He watched her reaction. “Do you love him?”
She shook her head. “No. I don’t. I feel bad for him obviously. Emily always uses a lot of people.” Maddie shrugged. “I’ve told you before she doesn’t like me. Never has, and I don’t know why.”
“I’m not going to replace you with her. It’s you I want.”
She held him just a little tighter. It looked like she was going to say something, but she stopped herself and rested her head against his chest.
Chapter Eleven
Once again Paige was sleeping over at Martha and Mike’s, and Caleb had told her that he’d left instructions for her to get ready on his bed. Maddie tried not to rush upstairs in excitement to see what he wanted her to do, but it was there. Taking each step at a time, she walked into his room, and there on his bed was a small card and a box.
She loved these gifts that he’d leave for her to find.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, she read through the instructions.
“Take a nice long bath, and then wear this beautiful item I have for you. I want you to be sitting on the bed, legs spread, and playing with your pussy.”
Just reading the instructions had her aroused. Pressing her thighs together, she groaned at the shot of pleasure that rushed through her.
Lifting the lid on the box, she put the note down, and inside was a beautiful, sheer negligee that screamed sex.
She held it up, and even though there were cups to support the breasts, there was no way they’d be hiding anything.
From there, the lace hung open, leaving nothing to the imagination. This was for sex, nothing else.
Leaving it on the bed, she made her way toward the bathroom and ran herself a bath. She wondered what he had planned for her.
Everything Caleb did only brought her closer to him. Her feelings for him were constantly growing. Every single day she found a reason to love him. He even put the toilet seat down after using it, which she found really sweet, considering he didn’t have to.
Caleb and Paige had become her new family.
The ranch was her home, and she loved her life.
She didn’t feel like an outcast or an outsider.
Washing her body thoroughly, shaving all the areas that needed it, she climbed out of the tub and dried herself, taking care of her hair as she did. With her hair bound up, she entered the bedroom, and couldn’t resist putting on the item that Caleb had purchased for her.
He did buy her things all the time. Gifts that made her wonder if he was falling for her, or if it meant something else.
Her thoughts were always all over the place when it came to him. She’d never really cared if someone loved her or not. With Caleb it mattered a lot. She didn’t want to ever be without him, and those feelings were only getting stronger.
The negligee felt sexy against her skin, and she loved the feel of it. Sitting at her table, she dried and brushed her hair before taking a seat on the edge of the bed. She didn’t know if she should start now, or wait until she heard him enter.
The instructions he’d left were very specific, and she didn’t wish to upset him. Placing her hand at the parting of the fabric, she slowly eased her hand down her stomach. She moved between her thighs and cupped her pussy. She was already soaking wet, and released a little whimper as she teased between her slit.
Stroking over her clit, she slid down and pressed two of her fingers inside her, moving up to the hilt, and gasping at the pleasure that exploded inside her just from that touch alone.
She didn’t have to contain her sounds, and she didn’t want to either. Thinking about Caleb, his mouth on her body, it was enough to drive her to the edge. Not once in the instructions did it say anything about her coming or not.
Easing her movements, she began slowly, waiting for her arousal to subside so that she didn’t rush into orgasm.
“That is one of the sexiest things I’ve seen in a long time,” he said.
She opened her eyes and saw Caleb standing there, watching her.
When she went to stop, he shook his head and urged her to continue.
“I didn’t hear you come in,” she said.
“I was hoping I’d catch you so I was really quiet, and I know where every single creak is within this house.” He winked at her.
