My Mountain Man Muse

All of a sudden, just as Evan grabs the super horny Katie in his arms and tells her he wants her, my fingers stop moving. The words dry up.

Come on fingers. Don’t fail on me now.

But there’s nothing.

It’s been so long since I’ve had my own sex scene.

And even then, it’s been nothing worth writing about. I’ve had lots of awkward, but nothing inspiring.

I lean back in my chair and watch Jayden as I suck on the back of my pen. He’s still going hard with the ax. He’s relentless and it makes me wonder how long this man can last in bed.

The warmth and heat start swirling through me again and like earlier, they go straight to the area between my legs.

I roam my eyes over his big triceps and wonder how hard they would feel as he holds himself up over me.

“Mmmmm,” I moan as I start to burn all over.

Maybe I need a little mountain man inspiration to get this book going again.

Yes. That’s what I need.

It’s just research. That’s all it is.

Hot, sweaty, sultry research with my gorgeous sexy mountain man roommate.

The back of the pen pops off in my mouth and I choke and spit out a mouthful of blue ink into my napkin. I guess I was sucking it a little too hard as I watched him.

My blue lips are curled up in a mischievous grin as I clean myself up.

Yes. I’m going to do it.

Tonight I’m going to seduce Jayden…

…for research purposes of course.

Chapter Six

Lily

The first thing I do is ditch the dancing pug pajamas.

“Sorry puggies,” I say as I slide them down my hairy legs. “You guys are cute, but you won’t be needed tonight.”

I stole a pair of Jayden’s boxer briefs and a tank top from his dresser for the seduction. Let’s hope they work.

I hobble into the shower and steal his razor to shave my legs. It’s a big clunky metal thing, but I still manage to get the job done and only cut myself about half a dozen times. By the time I’m finished, I’m as smooth as a dolphin. A sexy dolphin.

Now my hair… what the hell can I do with this? I don’t have any of my products and there’s no hairdryer on this entire dreaded mountain.

I dry it with the towel as best I can and then kind of fluff it up with my hands. Hmpff. I won’t win any beauty magazine awards, but it’s the best I can do given the circumstances. Anyway, it’s not like Mr. Reclusive Mountain Man has seen any of the new hairstyles, so I’m probably good.

I put on his clothes and my stomach starts doing jumping jacks. Oh no. I start freaking out as I glance at the closed door.

I’ve never seduced anyone before. I’ve never even initiated a kiss.

My breaths start coming out quick and shallow and I grab onto the sink as I fight back a panic attack.

“Come on, Lily,” I mutter to myself in the foggy mirror. “Having a full-blown panic attack in the bathroom is the first chapter in How NOT to Seduce a Man. Get yourself under control, girl.”

I focus on my breathing until it’s nice and steady and I’m feeling only mildly queasy.

“It’s now or never,” I whisper as I give myself a wink in the mirror. “Fuck it!”

With a deep breath, I open the door and creep out.

Jayden is in the kitchen, finishing up the dishes. He made me some fresh fish that he caught this afternoon in the river and topped it off with a delicious sauce, rice on the side, and a salad. We ate at the table together over candlelight and talked for over an hour about my book and how I’ve always wanted to be an author. He talked about his mother and how much he misses her after she died from cancer. She’s the one who said he should move out here after she saw how unhappy he was with conventional life.

There’s a quiet calmness to him. A confident, self-assured boldness that is incredibly sexy. I’m starting to crush on him pretty hard.

The cabin is dark, except for the soft light on in the kitchen and the fire in the fireplace. I hold the wall as I limp over to the couch.

Jayden has his back to me as he washes the dishes in the sink and I keep glancing nervously at him as I lay down on the couch in a position that says, ‘take me, big boy.’

My phone is on the coffee table so I quickly snatch it and search for a sexy song. Wicked Games by Chris Isaak… that will do.

I push play and set it on the table as my heart starts pounding with nerves and excitement and arousal and fear.

Jayden pulls the drain in the sink and I take a deep breath and fan my hair out on the pillow as he finishes up. “Want a drink?” he asks as he turns and walks over.
