Loving You (Love Wanted in Texas 6)
Page 35
The wind blew my hair about as Jase pushed another piece behind my ear.
His eyes filled with love while they searched my face. “Kiss me and make it official then.”
I launched myself into him as our lips found one another. The kiss wasn’t frantic, but it wasn’t slow either. I wanted him more than ever. When we finally broke apart, our eyes searched each other’s face.
“Would Walker mind if you left with me?”
“Even if he did, I wouldn’t care.”
With a light-hearted laugh, I turned to the barn. “I should probably officially accept the job then.”
Jase stood up and pulled me up with him. “Yes! You really should.”
When his fingers laced with mine, I couldn’t ignore the way my heart was beating so rapidly. It felt like a million butterflies fluttered in my stomach.
We headed back to the barn and joined the others. Scott and I talked for a bit about the job, what I would be paid and what I would pay to live in the hunter’s cabin. It was dirt cheap and I could see it in his eyes he didn’t even want me to pay rent, but I had insisted.
Colt, Jase, and Walker hit it off instantly and talked non-stop. I got Lauren caught up on everything. When I told her the things Jase said to me, she got all teary eyed and said it sounded like something Colt would have said.
Never in a million years would I have dreamed Jase Morris was so romantic.
“You ready to go?” I asked walking up to the guys.
Walker slapped Jase on the back and winked. “Don’t forget tomorrow afternoon I’ll need your help with that fence.”
“I won’t forget,” Jase said walking up to me and wrapping his arm around me. Every time he touched me, my heart either skipped a beat or my stomach dropped.
“Let’s go get you packed up and ready to move.”
I was sure my face was beaming as I rapidly nodded my head. Jase followed me to my car. Trying like hell to walk normal, I fought not to break out into a run as I calmly made it to my car. After picking up his truck in Llano, Jase followed me to Austin. I couldn’t help but look in my mirror every two minutes at the handsome cowboy in the black Ford truck.
The moment we got to my apartment I knew what I wanted to happen. Peeking over to Jase, I couldn’t help but smile when I saw his face.
He was hoping for the same thing.
The second the door to my apartment shut, Jase pushed me against it and kissed me like I’d never been kissed. Things quickly heated up as we each undressed one another as fast as we could.
“Jase,” I panted into his mouth, “I want you so much.”
His hands were everywhere on my body. It was as if he was trying to memorize everywhere he touched.
“Sweetness, we need to slow down.”
Lifting h
is shirt over his head, I took in his amazing body. Years of working on his father’s cattle ranch gave him a broad chest and abs I’d forgotten were so amazing. My hands gently rested on his skin. Warmth radiated through my body as our eyes met.
“I’m so glad everything is packed up,” I said quickly.
Jase looked around and smiled. “You’re all packed?”
“Yep. That means you can take your time making love to me.”
He turned back and pierced my eyes with his. I’d never seen them so blue before. He lifted me up while I wrapped my legs around his waist.
“Bedroom?” he asked against my lips.
My breathing was labored as I felt his hard-on pressed into my body. Stammering, I said, “Down the hall, last door on the right.”
