Lost Love (Cowboys & Angels 1)

“The little bastard that tries to get into my daughter’s pants.”

Taking a few steps back, Cord appeared to be sick. “What! This early? They’re starting this early?”

“What?” I asked with a confused expression.

“Someone is trying to … with my niece!”

“No, asshole, I’m saying when she gets older.”

Cord leaned against the bar and dragged in a few breaths. “Damn it, Steed. Way to ruin my post sex high.”

My head jerked back as I stared at him. “What? No way.” I turned to see the blonde sitting at the end of the bar giggling with her two friends while putting her hair back up. Swinging my eyes to Cord, I asked, “You fucked her that fast?”

Cord grinned from ear to ear. “Lick her, stick her, make her scream.”

Tripp laughed. “Damn dude, I can’t get a condom on that fast.”

“She wanted fast. I gave her fast,” Cord said as he brushed his knuckles across his shirt.

“Jesus, did you even let the poor girl get off?” I asked.

“Fuck yeah I did. I always take care of them first. I can’t help it if I know how to fuck a girl and make her come fast.”

“Well isn’t this nice. Glad to see the Parker brothers haven’t changed any. Still talking filthy and treating women like sex toys.”

I froze.

Cord’s smile widened, and he clutched his chest. “That wounds me, Paxton. I would never treat a woman that way. If she asks me for sex, who am I to turn her down?”

Paxton stepped between me and Tripp. My dick instantly came to life when I saw her sweet beautiful breasts peeking out from a red dress. Her dark hair was pulled up in a bun on the top of her head. A few loose strands falling out in the back had me itching to push them to the side and kiss her there. My eyes moved down her body to see black heels that made her legs look like they went on forever. I couldn’t help but smile. My sweet Paxton had moved on from cowboy boots to fuck-me heels. I knew by the way she was dressed she was trying to show me what I had missed out on over the last ten years.

I moved on the stool to adjust the growing dick in my pants. Lifting my eyes back up her body, I had to suppress a damn moan.

She was fucking gorgeous.

“Goddamn woman, you look hot as hell! Still drink Buds?” Trevor asked as he leaned next to Cord and handed Paxton a Bud Light. Trevor would sometimes come and help Cord at the bar to earn extra money; I was wishing tonight hadn’t been one of those nights.

Paxton blushed and took a drink. “Thanks, Trev. You’re looking pretty good yourself.”

Trevor’s smile grew. “Dance with me, pretty lady. You owe me a raincheck.”

My head snapped to him as Cord and Tripp laughed. What in the fuck? My own brother?

Paxton took a drink, set down the beer, and nodded. I almost fell out of my chair.

“You can’t dance in those shoes.” It was out of my mouth before I could stop it.

“Oh damn boy. You fucked up,” Cord said as Tripp shook his head and gave me a what the hell glare.

Paxton faced me. Her eyes were dark as she let them roam over my body before she captured my gaze with hers. “How would you know?”

The words felt like a knife in my heart.

Trevor jumped over the bar, hit me on the shoulder and laughed. “You fucked up, bro.”

“So I’ve been told.”

I watched Trevor wrap his arm around Paxton’s waist and lead her to the dance floor. Anger boiled in my blood as he pulled her into his arms. “I’m going to kill that little motherfucker,” I said, starting after them. Tripp jumped up stood in front of me.

“Whoa there. Steed, take a deep breath and think about what you’re about to do.”

Cord must have jumped over the bar because he was already in my face, pushing me back. “Sit your ass down. I don’t do well with people starting shit in my place and I don’t give a fuck if you’re my brother or not. You can’t expect Paxton to drop everything and fall at your damn feet because you’re back in town, Steed. Trevor’s screwing with you because he knows it’ll piss you off. Let it go. You know damn well nothing will come from him dancing with her.”

I watched as they hit the dance floor and took off. He was lucky it was a fast song.

“Steed. Are you listening to me? Steed!”

My head jerked toward Cord. “What?”

Shaking his head, Cord said, “Dude, you lost any say when you left her.”

The pressure on my chest made it hard to breathe as I took a few steps back and sat on the stool.

Cord put his hand on my shoulder. “Look, I know this is hard for both of you. But you’ve got to see it from her viewpoint. You came walking into her life ten years later like nothing happened and you brought a kid with you. I’m sure no matter how much she pretends to hate your guts, y’all loved each other and she didn’t just lose you, Steed. I can’t imagine how that must make her feel knowing you have Chloe.”
