Tempting the Cowboy (Circle B Ranch 8)

Kane: I could meet you at my house around 1...I'll take my lunch break then.

Ivy: I'll be there, Cowboy. I need to thank you properly.

Kane: And now I'm gonna be hard just thinking about that all morning.

I giggle, my face flushing hot just imagining his cock. We haven't moved past making out, but I'm ready to move forward with Kane. As crazy and spontaneous as it sounds, I want to give him all of me.

Ivy: See ya soon :)

I walk back inside and start setting up our stations. Harper shows up ten minutes later with a big smile on her face. While we’re busy packaging orders, she tells me about one of our rival goat soap companies who tried to take her down a couple of years ago. Apparently, karma got the last laugh because they just announced a going out of business sale. The owner supposedly joined a multi-level marketing company and is now using scammy tactics to recruit her previous clients.

"Do you think their customers will start buying from us?" I ask excitedly, though we stay plenty busy as it is.

"I think most of them already have. They quickly realized she was just copying my every move, and they actually liked the original recipes better," she says, trying to hold back a smile, but I giggle anyway.

“No one wants a knockoff. We work too hard. This usually happens when people aren’t creative and can’t come up with their own ideas.”

All she does is nod. Her trying to be modest is the cutest thing ever.

At 12:50, I ask Harper if I can take my lunch break. She never tells me no, but I didn't anticipate her asking me to drop something off at the B&B first.

"Yeah, sure. No problem." I take the envelope. "Just hand it to John?"

"Yes, please." Then she lowers her voice as if someone can hear her. "Ethan asked me to do it yesterday, and I completely forgot. When he asked me about it this morning, I just nodded."

I smirk in amusement. "Don't worry, boss. I gotchu."

She tells me she’s going to run home and feed the kids. Hayden's been playing all morning while Hailey-Mae crawled around in their circular baby gate. It has mats on the ground covered in toys, but Harper likes them to eat at home because it’s easier.

Grabbing my phone, I head to my car and set down the envelope. Then I see a message from Kane.

Kane: I'm home. Come right in when you get here.

Unable to contain my excitement, I grin wide.

Ivy: On my way!

I try not to drive too fast since the gravel kicks up, but I'm excited to see him. I'm a woman on a mission, and nothing will slow me down.

As soon as I pull up to his house, I park on the side behind the tree. The east end of the ranch gets hardly any traffic, so I've been able to successfully hide my car.

As soon as I open the door, Kane swoops me in his arms and shoves me against the wood. His lips are on mine like rapid wildfire as I cling to him.

"God, I've missed you," he murmurs as his hands slide down my body and grip my ass.

"You just saw me," I retort with a smile.

"That already feels like forever ago," he admits, pushing his erection into my lower stomach.

I release a moan as his mouth lowers down my jaw and neck. My palm grazes his cock from outside his jeans, and he growls.

"I wanna taste you," I tell him bravely. I've never given head before, but I have read about it enough times to know the basics.

"Ivy..." He captures my chin between his finger and thumb, rubbing the pad softly against my skin. "You don't have—"

"Will you teach me?" I look up at him, hoping he won't deny us what we both want. "Show me what you like."

"You don't have to do that to keep me interested," he tells me.

"I want to touch you because I like it. Or at least, I think I will." I flash him a shy smile.

"Fuck." He pulls off his ball cap and scrubs a hand through his hair. "Does that make me the corrupter or the corruptee?"

I snort at his choice of words, then push off the wall and lead him to the couch. "Maybe a little bit of both."

Once he sits, I kneel between his legs and take in how sexy he looks. Wild hair, T-shirt tight against his abs and biceps, his dick begging to come out and play.

I'm really about to do this.

My body is hot all over, and I haven't even touched him yet.

Kane leans in and cups my face, pressing his lips to mine. "Take my cock out, sweet girl. I want your mouth on me."

Hell yes.

As soon as he leans back, I unbutton his jeans and lower the zipper. He lifts his hips slightly to help me pull them down, along with his boxers. The veins in his shaft look like they're about to burst as his erection springs free.
