“Jesus. Jesus FUCK!” I swore, gripping the back strap on her life jacket and pulling her with me as I set out for shore—any shore. I turned my back to the waves and let them carry us. It didn’t take long before I saw trees ahead. “Thank fuck,” I said just before my socked foot connected with a sha
That assessment hit me like a punch in the gut. I had been treating Jocelyn as though I expected her to be easy, ever since she’d seen me naked in the woods and telegraphed her clear desire for me. I should have known better. Jocelyn deserved better. “Look,” I said. “I have had a hard-on for you si
-Jacey- It was freezing, so cold that Caleb’s warm hand on my numb, wet cheek actually stung. That was not, however, the place where most of the warmth in my body was bubbling up from. My heart beat a ba-thump ba-thump when he touched me, and his words touched a broken place in my soul. I blinked,
I covered my face with my hand and groaned. “This day just keeps getting better.” “It is from my perspective,” Caleb chuckled. I took a tired swat at him. Caleb laughed more and stood to hang my clothes to dry as well. When he returned to my side, Caleb sat down cross-legged on the ground. I fro
“Um, gross.” But I giggled just the same. Caleb put his mouth right up against my ear. “Do you touch yourself at night when you think about me?” I shivered. “W-Weren’t we worried about a bear?” “I’ll take that as a ‘yes,’” Caleb said smugly. I groaned and buried my face in his neck again. Caleb
-Jacey- I waited while Caleb took our silverware and the empty can down to the lake, praying he didn’t get lost on the way back. The sun was just starting to dip down from its peak outside the window, and I knew my father and Jeanie probably wouldn’t even be worried about our absence until sunset.
Then I felt the rough pad of this thumb rub over my nipple as he cupped my breast. My whole body jerked. It felt positively electric. “Rose. I like it,” Caleb murmured. “Damn, you’re so beautiful, Jacey.” “Thanks,” I said awkwardly, not sure what else to say. It was hard to believe the compliment
Then Caleb hooked his fingers inside me, and I cried out, light exploding behind my eyes as the best orgasm I had EVER had rolled over my body. Caleb pressed his forehead to mine as I came down, his expression strained. “You’re not ready for full-on sex yet, are you?” My brain was completely scram
“So, I think you’ve been doing some snooping,” Ike said, leaning in the doorway.My eyes snapped upward, and I was sure I wasn’t hiding the hatred in them very well. “What the hell is all this?”“Your inheritance. You know, this makes it easier. Your grandfather and I were trying to figure out how t
I dropped the headphones and was about to go striding into the office to break up their nefarious little clique when I looked at Dawn’s screen. She’d left it unlocked.There was a folder open I’d never seen on the server before.I glanced over the monitor to make sure Dawn wasn’t on her way back the
-Will-I sat behind my grandfather’s desk, bored again. After private schools, Yale, and Harvard Business School, I was bored out of my mind. I’d followed my expected trajectory. I’d done everything expected of me.Only once did I ever step a toe out of line. Well, almost. I suggested, at one of my
-Jacey-“Mom? Where did Uncle Billy put the Fruity Pebbles?” McKenzie asked.She’d been home from her first year of college a week and had already settled right in like she owned the place. Billy had taken to hiding the Fruity Pebbles they both liked, one, because he thought it was hilarious, and tw
Shower. SHOWER!!! I stopped her jerking me off and helped her into the tub then followed her in and closed the floral curtain.Jacey went immediately for the soap, lathering up her hands and then starting to scrub me.“You’re trying to kill me, aren’t you,” I groaned when she washed my rigid cock.“
I should have been overjoyed. On some level, I was ecstatic. But anger bubbled up in me as well, and I gripped her upper arms and pushed her just far enough away that I could look her in the eyes. “Jacey, you’ve been icing me out for almost a month.”Her eyes welled with tears, but she quickly dashe
-Caleb-A month later, Masterson was in prison, and Jacey and I were back on the farm. She had spoken to me less and less as the weeks passed and was now icing me out altogether. I didn’t blame her. I’d given her false hope.But I’d been so sure Masterson was going to bungle it with Will. A bad nann
“Good luck with that. Look, I really am on your side. This plea bargain is a good thing. Twenty-five years isn’t a short prison sentence, and maybe in that amount of time, he’ll be able to reflect on his actions. Hell, I don’t know, maybe he’ll find Jesus. What I do know is Masterson can provide for
“I hear what you’re saying,” Officer Alexander replied slowly. “And Lord knows I agree with you, but there’s nothing we can do, Jacey. Nothing. Do you understand? I want you to tell me you understand before we go back out there. You can’t make a scene.”My hands balled into fists. “If they don’t wan
