It was nine a.m. when I finally left the clinic.I was physically and emotionally exhausted and this exhaustion didn’t let me think clearly.I felt hurt and rejected after the treatment I received from Jacob this morning, but in part I couldn't blame him because I was the one who lay down next to him, I was the one who sought his warmth and hugged him all night and I was the one who started touching him as I pleased while he slept.And I definitely owed him an apology for all of the above, because he’d simply stayed with me to keep me company as a friend, not for me to use his body as I pleased when he was most vulnerable.So, I stopped one of the workers who was helping Kristy with some supplies boxes at reception to find out where the man in question was.“Hey, Carlos, good morning, have you seen Jacob?”“Hey Vivi. I think he's near the lake. It’s been raining since last night and some areas got muddy and there are some animals trapped.”Great, now was raining.I thanked the boy and
“I told you already I'm not hungry.”“And I told already you I don't give a fuck what you say. You will eat, period.”“Silvia…”“No,” She cut me off, crossing her arms. “You got kicked by a goddamn bull the size of a truck and don't think I didn't notice the limp you had when you got here this morning...”“But…”“...So, your stupid mind state is letting me know that you're in no condition to make any decision,” Silvia continued without letting me speak. “You're going to eat the fucking soup, Jacob Simon, if you don't want me to force it down your throat. You know I'm capable of that. On more than one occasion I've had to use my brute force on you, kid.”I swallowed hard before nodding and settled better against the headboard so George could place the tray of food on my lap.“I'm going to get the painkiller you need to take with your meal,” She snapped, challenging me with her eyes.“I'll be waiting,” I muttered, staring down at the bowl of soup.“And if you think you're going to get o
“Okay, I admit it, this is beautiful.”“I told you.”“I totally understand why you wanted your house back here and not in front of the property.”“And you haven't seen the sunrise or sunset yet.”“Hmm… Is that an invitation?”Vivienne laughed when I shifted uneasily before resting her head on my shoulder with a deep sigh.“It's so easy to tease you, Jacob. You have to relax a bit.”I blew out my breath and forced myself to do as she said, wrapping my arm around her body in the process.“I’m sorry. It's been a long time since I was in this situation and I don't know how I should act.”“You can act however you want with me, cowboy,” She whispered, dropping a hand on my thigh.And I tensed up automatically again, because that thigh was missing the rest of its leg.It had been two days since I got hurt, and since I finally kissed her.And contrary to everything I’d thought could happen, we had fallen into this kind of relationship where we kissed, touched and talked to each other without
“Is Jake really okay?”I stopped the truck in front of Jacob's house and turned to my daughter.“He's fine, but Taylor, you need to stop calling him that.”“But mom, he told me I could call him that,” She insisted, undoing her seat belt before opening the door to get out.“Somehow, I feel like I shouldn't believe what you say, baby.”I went to the back door and picked Lily up before setting her down to see her run to her owner.The damned pig was getting heavier.“I promised I wouldn’t say more lies, mommy. Although I didn't really lie, I just didn't tell the whole truth. They’re two different things.”And she was only seven.“I dread the day you come of age, girl,” I sighed, leading her towards the entrance.It’d only been a few hours since I saw Jacob and he told me about his painful past, but somehow, those few hours felt like days.I hadn't wanted to let go of him. I’d wished I could weld my arms around him and comfort him until he felt strong enough to face the world on his own,
Vivienne would be the death of me.But what a way to go.I couldn't believe I'd let her do what she did to me, though…it had been amazing.I couldn't remember the last time someone did a hand job to me, but this one would never leave my mind.Nor her words.Shit, Vivienne sure had a dirty mouth, and I had loved every word that had come out of it.I’d loved the way she’d made me feel with her words and her touch.In those few minutes, only existed the two of us. For a few minutes, all I could think about was how amazing her hand felt around me, and how I wished I could turn around to finish on top of her and finally fuck her.The only thing that had stopped me was the explosive orgasm that happened when she ordered me to come.Son of a bitch, no one ever said those words to me in the past. I’d always been the one to give my partner pleasure and then get my own, so Vivienne taking the reins and helping me get out of my mind had been really liberating.In more than one way.“Look at him,
“Did you really name her Taylor because you love Taylor Swift?” Jacob shook his head still in disbelief. “I thought it was some kind of joke between you.” “I never joke about something this serious, Jacob,” I said solemn. “I always say my daughter has my last name because I did all the work since the beginning, but the truth is that I wanted her name to be as similar as possible to Taylor Swift, and since our last names sound alike… The rest is history.” “And her second name is Dreams,” He reminded me amused. “I can't believe the little girl's luck to carry that couple of last names.” I smiled at the sarcastic tone he used and shrugged nonchalantly. I didn’t regret my choice of name when it came to my daughter. Peter always blamed me saying that I was the only one deciding on her name, but he was as much a fan of Taylor as I was and sang her songs at the top of his lungs at every concert we went. Yep, concerts. In plural. Was this a good moment to say that if she’d been a boy, my
Maybe I should get a bike.I didn't think Vivienne would be right at saying that.I thought I’d feel awkward and clumsy when I first got my hands on her, but once I focused and put my doubts aside, I knew exactly what I had to do.And now I wanted to do it again, because once wasn't enough.To pleasure her with my fingers and seeing how passionate she had been with my fingers buried deep inside her, evaporated all of my insecurities and I finally understood the truth.This was Vivienne.A mother who worried if her daughter was bullied and harassed at school and decided to put hundreds of miles away so Taylor would be okay. She took Taylor to psychologists and found her a therapy pet to help her, and even protected her from me when I was rude to her.This was the woman who went out of her way for her patients and tried everything to make sure they were okay. She would even sleep on the clinic’s floor when a first-time mom’s labor would be early.And this was the woman who had shown me
“How many are coming, mom?”“Only one, honey. But I need you to go behind the fence, we don't know this cow’s temper.”Jacob stopped the truck with the trailer when Taylor fell to her feet on the other side of the fence.“Hey, baby,” My boyfriend greeted me as he got out of the truck.“Hello, handsome.”I kissed him back with pleasure, ignoring my daughter's complaints a few feet from us, and walked away to open the trailer.“How was the trip, Jeff?” I said when I saw Jacob's right hand, and who went with him to Seattle to rescue a dairy cow that would’ve been taken to the slaughterhouse for not producing enough milk. Fortunately, one of the managers knew about The Eden and had contacted Jacob, who didn’t hesitate to drive more than six hours to safe the cow.“It was okay, Vivi. Though I don't know how you can stand this guy, he snores a lot,” The foreman complained, though he never lost his smile.“I don't snore, I just breathe hard,” Was Jacob's reply, but as he walked next to me, I
