“Next time you commit a felony, don’t use your real name, you dumb fuck.”
“The site made me verify my license to sign up,” he says like that makes it any better.
I shake my head as I walk to my truck. “If I see you on my mountain again,” I warn him. “I’ll fucking throw you off it.”
He’s still on his knees as I start my truck and race home to my girl.
Chapter Nine
Vivian
“This has been the best week of my life,” I say to Duncan as we sit in the hot tub after dinner. It’s another quiet gorgeous night with the stars shining like diamonds over our heads. My muscles are sore all over from the week of hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, kayaking, and of course from riding this big strong hulking mountain man every chance I’ve gotten.
“I’ll say it to you again, Vivian,” Duncan says as he runs a wet hand through his hair, slicking it back just how I like it. “Stay with me. Don’t go home.”
“But…”
I can see the urgency in his eyes. The desperation. This man is in love with me.
Just like I’m in love with him.
“You can’t go,” he says as he glides through the water and grips my body with his big hands. There’s a determined look in his eyes as he hovers his face a few inches from mine. “You belong here with me. Sell your company. Marry me. Start a family with me. You have to see that this is the only answer. This is fate.”
“I…”
I want to believe him. I want to say yes, but it’s only been a few days. I… I’m so confused and his gorgeous brown eyes aren’t helping the matter.
I know he’ll take care of me. I know he’ll do whatever he can to keep me safe. He even got my money back from the asshole who scammed me, which I didn’t think was possible. He’ll be my guardian and protector. He’ll die before he lets me get hurt.
“I was wrong when I called you a city girl,” he says as he clings to me under the water. “You’re a mountain girl, through and through. I can see it so clearly now. I saw your face light up every time you were in the forest, in every river, on every lake. You belong in the mountains, Vivian. You belong with me.”
I can’t imagine leaving this place. Every time I think about getting on that train and heading to the airport, I feel nauseous.
How can I go back to New York City knowing this amazing man is on the other side of the country? How can I go back to my lonely apartment when I can be in this glorious hot tub with this perfect man? And how can I go back to my soul-sucking job after knowing I had the chance to give it all up and come live in this beautiful mountain town with the man of my dreams?
He inches forward slowly, his lips floating over mine. “Stay with me, baby. Don’t make me tie you to my bed for the rest of eternity. Be with me. Be my girl. Let me be your man.”
I moan when his bottom lip grazes mine. I can taste his hot breath and it’s making me all lightheaded and woozy.
I tilt my chin up, trying to get a kiss, but he tilts his head away, torturing me.
“What do you say?” he whispers.
“I… I… I’ll stay.”
His grip tightens on me. “Really? You mean it?”
How can I say no? How can I leave? I can’t. I do belong here with him. There’s no place I’d rather be.
“I mean it,” I say, feeling a swell of relief filling me up. Now that I’ve made it, I know it’s the right choice. “I want to be yours.”
He lunges forward and kisses me like he’s never kissed me before. I moan against his tongue as he claims my mouth with an eager intensity that leaves my head spinning.
“I’ll make sure that you’re grateful for this decision every day of your life.”
Those big demanding hands are suddenly turning me around. He pulls down the bottoms of my bikini as I’m pressed up against the edge of the hot tub, bent over with my heart pounding.
“You won’t regret a thing.”
I already don’t. I’m already happier than I’ve ever been.
His massive palms squeeze my bare ass cheeks as he positions himself behind me. My pussy is completely exposed in front of my mountain man’s ravenous eyes. I blush, knowing he can see every last bit. My pussy begins to throb as he lets out a low hungry growl at the sight.
There’s no urge to hide or take it away. Duncan has opened up a new side of me. A side that loves it when he looks at me down there. This fierce new side wants him to take my aching pussy. It can’t get enough of him and his towering cock.
