“Whoa, Chelsea. I appreciate you wanting me to have a good man and marriage, but please, no more trying to fix me up or trick Rand into spending time with me.” She turned toward her friend. “We’re in different places in our lives. He wants to play the field, have a good time, no commitments. I want a husband, a home, to have babies.”

“You two actually talked about what you want?”

“Sort of, and not at the best time.”

“I won’t ask what that means. But I will back off. Knowing you like I do, I wanted to see you happy like me. You really don’t want to stay in New York, do you?”

“Not a bit. Being here has helped clear my head. I’m changing my life. Perhaps I’ll return to North Carolina. My mother would be overjoyed. I’m the only one who moved more than fifty miles away.”

“This is happening fast. You might want to wait until you’ve been back at your job a few months. Then see if you still want to move.”

“It wasn’t a fast decision. I’ve been thinking about doing something different, somewhere different for the last six months.”

Visiting Chelsea, meeting Rand, and seeing how it was to live in a small town like Frontier City had made Marian realize what she really wanted. She wanted it with Rand, but he wasn’t available. There had to be another good, handsome man who’d excite her body and make her dreams come true. She would not admit defeat.

A year from now I am going to have a husband, a job I like, and hopefully be starting a family. But I’ll probably have to leave Frontier City to find him

Chapter Seven

Chelsea left Marian at the cabin. “Sure you don’t want to join us later?”

“Thanks, but I’m tired. See you tomorrow.”

Marian had barely put on her lights when the phone rang. “Hello.”

“You’re back.” Rand’s deep voice vibrated from her ear down her body. “I wondered if you were too tired to go for a ride. Unless you’d rather do a late dinner tonight.”

“I’d like the ride.”

“I’ll be right there.” The phone went dead.

She rushed to shower and changed into casual slacks and a white sweater. She’d save the gold one for the dance. The truck door slammed as she finished combing her hair out. A spritz of perfume and she was ready at his knock.

Her mind told her she was a fool. But her body didn’t listen.

When she opened the door, Rand stepped inside and pulled her to him. He kissed her mouth like a thirsty man taking his first drink in a long time. His tongue tangled with hers as his fingers slid through her hair.

He pulled back and looked down into her face. “I’ve been over her for months. Honestly. I was letting her get used to the idea of the breakup. No one has aroused me like you do. Not for years, if ever.

“I don’t know where this will go, but it’s driving me crazy seeing you every day and wanting to touch you. I want to smell your hair, touch your soft skin, and sink into your hot, sweet pussy. Will you take a chance on us?”

Was she dreaming, or did he really want them to have a relationship? She knew it was too soon. If she was smart, she’d push him away. But his warm, sensuous smile curled her toes, and her body wanted to stay cuddled against his hard frame. All her thoughts from earlier today flew out of her mind. She didn’t want to resist him.
For an answer to his question, she brought his head back down and kissed his lips, along his neck, and at the curve between neck and shoulder. “Your pulse is beating fast.” She glanced at his face.

Rand smiled. “I expect it’s going to beat much faster before tonight is over. I hope so. But first we’re going on that ride. We’ll date and do this right.”

“Be still, my beating heart. The doctor may be a romantic.”

His laugh, and the arm he put around her waist to escort her to his truck, warmed her heart. “I have a blanket in the backseat and a cooler full of soft drinks. In case we find a good place to stop. Do you mind?”

“What are you waiting for, doctor? Let’s go.” He swooped her into his arms and onto the passenger seat, kissed the tip of her nose, and went around to get in.

Marian glanced at the star-studded sky. “If this is dream,” she whispered, “don’t wake me.”

A night sky full of stars and a handsome cowboy who made her heart race, what more could a woman ask for? Marian glanced at Rand as he drove through town and went on following the two-lane highway south.

“I’m thinking of buying some property and building a house,” he explained. “Yesterday after work, our local realtor showed me several properties. I thought you might enjoy seeing my two favorites.”

“Sounds like fun. What do you like best about each one?”

“Good question. Let me see. The first one you’re going to see has more flat land but a nice stream toward the back of the property. It’s about five acres bigger. Farther down the road, we turn east and drive about five miles then turn south again. The last place has more trees and is a little hilly but still has flat grazing land. Near where I’d build the house is a small stream that meanders through the property.” Rand slowed and turned onto a two-lane dirt road. “This is the first property.”

An almost-full moon shone across the vast prairie. They stopped, and Marian got out.

“Would you raise cattle?”

“A few and two or three horses. I won’t have time for keeping up with too many animals.”

“This is the closest to your office.”

“Yes, but in the afternoon I could be anywhere in the county.”

Rand took her hand and led her around the area near the car. “You can’t tell as much at night, but I’d probably build the house a little farther on and off to the side of the road. I’d definitely put up a fence whether I had cattle or not. What do you think?”

“I like the wide-open spaces.”

“The few trees are at the end of the property around the stream. You can see some big bushes and thick vegetation in spots. Come on and I’ll show you the next place.”

When they got to the truck door, Rand didn’t immediately open it. He leaned his body against hers with her back touching the cool metal door. Leaning down, his lips softly touched hers.

“You’re even more lovely by moonlight. Your hair glows.” He sniffed some strands he held in his hand. “Sweet, all of you is sweet, from your head to the scent of your arousal.”

Marian put her arms around his neck and rubbed her breasts across his hard chest. Her lips nuzzled his neck, and he pressed against her abdomen, letting her feel his aroused cock.

Rand stepped back. “We’d better stop. I really want you to see this next property before we play.”

She pretended to pout. “Spoilsport.”

Rand opened the door and lifted her inside. “Anticipation only makes the desire more intense,” he whispered in her ear.

They rode on. After he made the second turn, the land changed. Trees lined the road, and they drove over small hills. After about thirty minutes, Rand turned again onto another two-lane road, but this one had been paved.

Trees initially blocked the view. Then they arrived at an open area with a vast panoramic scene of the prairie and far mountains. The land sloped gently before it flattened out. A silver stream shone in the moonlight, and trees clustered at the edge.

“We’ll drive to the stream and stop there for a few minutes,” Rand said. They got back in the truck, and he carefully maneuvered across the prairie. “I drove along here yesterday and didn’t see any significant holes, but it’s best to be careful.” He stopped near the trees, got out, and reached in the back for two blankets.

Marian shivered. “It’s cold. We won’t be able to stay long.”

“Where’s your spirit of adventure?”

“I don’t have one, and I don’t like to be cold.”

“That’s the first time I’ve heard you complain. I guess I’ll have to admit this larger blanket is actually a sleeping bag. First, I put down the real blanket, then we get into the other and zip it up for warmth.”

She looked at him skeptically. “We’ll see how that works. I have a perfectly good bed at the cabin.”

Rand ignored her and arranged things as he’d said. He pulled two big thermal cups out of the cooler. “I lied. This is hot chocolate.”

“My hero.” Marian grabbed a cup and took a long swallow. “Wonderful.”

“We’ll stay warmer in the sleeping bag if we take off our outer garments.”

“You are insane. No way.”

He laughed and caught her arm just before she ran. “You first.” Holding one arm, he managed to get her sweater off and then quickly her slacks. “Get in the bag.” He held her clothes away from her.

“I will. And when you get in I’m going to hit you.”

Rand chuckled. “Drink your hot chocolate.” In minutes he was undressed, had sheathed his cock, and got all the way into the sleeping bag with her. “See, our body heat will keep us warm.” He sat her cup on the ground and pulled her close against him.

Marian hated to admit it, but she was quite toasty. Rand reached around and unfastened her bra then slipped her panties down. He pulled her against his chest and wrapped his legs around hers.

Every time she took a breath, his musky scent filled her lungs. His hard cock pulsed against her abdomen as he began to ravish her mouth. His tongue sensually stroked the inner walls and her tongue. A shiver of delight shook Marian.

“Are you cold?”

“No.”

He moved down and raked his teeth across her pebbled nipples then his mouth suckled each breast. An all-consuming desire sent heat soaring in every vein. His hands and mouth explored every spot of her chest and abdomen.

When his fingers ran across the length of her lower lips and sank into her pussy, she moved her hips to encourage him. He found and touched her sensitive spot. Her body exploded with pleasure. She screamed his name as he moved his cock into position and plunged into her wet pussy. His mouth sucked on her breast as he began to slowly go in and out. She raised her hips, taking him in deeper.

Rand stopped for a moment. His eyes shone silver, and his face was taut with his desire. She clenched and unclenched her inner pussy walls around his wide, hard cock.

“Don’t stop now,” she pleaded.

“No way, but I want to see your face when you come.” He started moving fast and hard. A swell of euphoria swept through her hot body. She closed her eyes, and her body trembled with joy as her orgasm overtook her.

“Oh, sweetheart,” Rand groaned at the end.

They lay panting and sweaty. Their hearts pounded together. Rand tried to move partially off of her.

“I think we inaugurated this property,” he said. “I’ll never look at this place and not think of us.”

He and Marian cuddled and watched the leaves flutter in the slight breeze. Stars twinkled in the dark. “I’d better help you dress before you get cold and take you home.”

Marian squirmed around and got her panties and bra on without help. Then Rand reached for her sweater and helped her get it over her head.

“I think the slacks will go on quicker with you out of the sleeping bag.” He unzipped the zipper, handed her slacks to her, and jumped into his clothes. “It’s cold out here.”

“Finally you agree.” Marian took a swallow of her chocolate drink and gave Rand’s to him. “They’re not very warm.”

Rand put his arm around her waist and headed to the truck. “Get in and put on the heater while I put all our stuff in the backseat.”
