Married in the Mountains (Camp Hardwood 1)

His smile tightens but doesn’t fall as he nods his head. “Yes, I’d appreciate that.”

“No problem. What did you say your name was?” She turns around and grabs a brochure for the other two camps and slides them across the counter.

I edge in front of her again because I don’t like having a man I don’t know this close to her.

“Hawk,” he says as he picks up the brochures and tips his head. “Thanks for the help.”

He walks out of the office without another word and I wait until I hear a car crank up. “Shit, I should have looked at his plates.” But by the time I make it to the window he’s long gone.

“He was here for Piper. What should we do?” Honey asks with a panicked look in her eyes. “We have to tell her. Wait, maybe we shouldn’t. She could stress herself out and that’s not good for the baby.”

“She’s in a cabin with two other female counselors, but let’s make sure she’s always got someone with her. I’ll tell Moose about it and see what he can dig up.”

“Okay, so we don’t tell her?” Honey’s eyebrows pull together in worry and I know this is going to eat her up.

“For now, yeah, let’s play it cool. I don’t want to worry her any more than necessary. If we hear from the other camps, or he shows back up, we’ll let her know. But I think we’ve given him enough to throw him off.”

“What has a young girl like that gone and got herself into?” Honey looks out the window and shakes her head.

“Nothing I didn’t get you into at that age.” I come up behind her and slide my arm around her stomach. I need to get her mind off of this, at least for a little while. “Take a walk with me.”

“You’re going to let me out of the office?” Her voice is excited but hesitant.

“As long as you go with me to our boathouse.” I give her a sly smile and she bites her bottom lip as she nods.

I take her hand and tug her out of the office just as Moose is walking up on the porch.

“Everything okay?”

We keep on walking past him and I swing Honey up in my arms. “All good,” I shout over my shoulder as Honey giggles.

When we get to the boathouse I take out my keys and unlock the door. I lock it back behind us and look around as she runs up the steps. This was where we made love for the first time, and it’s always been a special place for us. Our boat is on a lift and our boating supplies are nearby. There’s a set of stairs to the right and I take them two at a time to get to Honey. When I reach the top she’s already undressing and smiling at me.

I had it remodeled a few years back with a small kitchen and bed for when we feel like sleeping out here. There’s a rope by the bed that when pulled reveals the night sky above. Honey said she always wanted to sleep under the stars so I made sure she had it whenever she wanted.

“Get your dick out,” she says, wiggling out of her shorts and kicking off her shoes.

“Has that line ever worked for you?” I ask, as I slowly take off my shirt and then take my time folding it.

She sighs and rolls her eyes. “No.” She’s completely naked and I want nothing more than to have my wife, but she loves when I take my time.

I place my shirt on the small dresser and then take off my shoes too. “Come here.” I point to the spot in front of me and she tries to hide her smile as she tucks her chin and walks to where I’m standing.

She takes her time and runs her hands over her bare hips and breasts. She’s doing this to drive me crazy and it’s working. When she gets to me she looks up through her lashes and then slowly lowers herself to the ground.

“Honey,” I warn as she spreads her knees wide and looks up at me with her mouth open.

“Yes?” She innocently smiles like nothing is amiss and I cock my head to the side. “You told me to come over here.”

“And what are you going to do down there?” I reach out and run my knuckles gently along her jaw. Then I reach out and grab a handful of hair and tilt her head back.

“Service my husband.” I feel her hands go to the front of my shorts and unbutton them.

I should stop her and make her do what I tell her, but seeing her like this is too much. I’m powerless when it comes to her and she damn well knows it.
