Cowboy's Retreat

by Ella Cooper

  “It’s none of your business,” Jacob insisted and walked away.

  Claudia grabbed his hands and he forcefully pulled his hands away from her grip, causing her to fall back on the couch.

  Jacob was surprised by his reaction, he wanted to apologize, but an apology would only make Claudia persistent in knowing his past. So, he did what he knew best – cover up the questions with anger. He glared at her and ordered, “You are not my wife. You will never be my wife. So, just leave.”

  Claudia’s eyebrows curved in anger, she took a deep breath and turned to the girls who were sitting on the porch and said sweetly, “Girls, you want me to stay, don’t you?”

  The twins’ faces lit up with delight and they ran into the house and hugged each side of Claudia’s hips. “Are you really going to stay, Aunt Claudia?” Elaine asked with a high pitched voice full of excitement.

  Claudia looked at Jacob and flashed a triumphant smile, then looked down at the girls and told them, “Your Daddy doesn’t want me to stay. You should ask him.”

  “Can she stay, Daddy?” Alicia asked with the most adorable look on her face.

  Silly woman, Jacob thought quietly while trying to hold himself from smiling. He did not want to show it, but he was excited to have Claudia stay. Still, his heart wavered, Jacob did not want a woman like Claudia in his life, he was afraid of having a woman like her, a woman who could control him, a woman he would fall in love with.

  Marina, a middle-aged woman, who is their personal cook, jolted him from his thoughts as she suddenly appeared from the kitchen and called out, “Mr. Stevens,”

  Jacob looked at Marina, she came every morning and evening to prepare food for them. He glanced over at Claudia and with a mischievous look on his face said, “You don’t have to cook for us tonight, Marina, Claudia will cook for us.”

  Claudia’s eyes widened with surprise upon hearing Jacob’s words, she forced a smile and held up her chin with pride. “Sure, just point me to the microwave and I’ll cook dinner for us.”

  “I’m sorry Miss, we don’t cook in microwaves,” Marina answered quietly.

  “Do you even know how to cook?” Jacob asked with a smug look on his face.

  “Of course,” Claudia replied, but she gulped at the end. “What do you want to eat?”

  “Spaghetti!” Elaine answered.

  “Macaroni and cheese,” Alicia yelled.

  Claudia looked at the girls for a while, Jacob chuckled and walked closer to her, he smiled and added, “Lamb stew. Marina was supposed to cook it for us tonight. Can you?”

  She glared at Jacob and raised an eyebrow, smiled and countered, “How about we eat out tonight girls?

  “Can we, Daddy?” Elaine asked while tugging at his shirt.

  Jacob glared at Claudia, who flashed another triumphant smile. He went after Marina in defeat and told her to cook the dinner for them instead. He turned to Claudia and said, “You’re going home after dinner.”

  “Are you going to be here when we wake up?” Alicia asked Claudia sweetly.

  Jacob hid behind the door and listened to the conversation between Claudia and his daughters. Alicia and Elaine’s voices were high pitched again, his girls could not hide their excitement of having a woman in the house, they were like buzzing bees around Claudia and she fueled their excitement with her display of sincere affection. She seemed to understand the need of the girls to have a mother figure in their lives.

  He wanted to believe Claudia, but doubt kept nagging in his mind, he believed that there was a hidden agenda somewhere. What rational explanation was there for a woman as young and beautiful as Claudia choosing a man like him, with his baggage? He could tell Claudia was attracted to him, but was it enough to exchange her youth? He was confident that there were dozens of men who would chase after her. She was a hot, curvy young woman that could make any man’s heart go crazy and make any man’s dick hard. There were men more deserving than him, he thought.

  Claudia should not love me. The same way his daughters and Frank should not love him, he did not deserve their love.

  “Stay until the fireworks,” Elaine added. “We are all going to Aunt Mandy’s house.”

  “Elaine will see William again,” Alicia teased.

  “William? Is he your boyfriend?” Claudia added teasingly.

  “No!” Elaine said. Her voice was so pitchy that it made Jacob’s ears hurt. “He said I’m fat.”

  “It’s okay if you’re fat,” Alicia replied innocently. “Look at Claudia, she’s fat and Daddy likes her a lot.”

  Alicia’s comment made Jacob’s mouth drop in disbelief. This kid, he thought. Claudia was not fat, she was just right for him. Her curves were what he desired in a woman, plus she was a really good kisser too. Before he could say anything to correct Alicia, he heard Claudia’s sonorous laughter at the comment. It sounded like music to his ears and made him want her even more.

  “Yeah lovelies! We wear our curves proud and strong. Tomorrow, I’ll teach you how to walk and talk like a model,” Claudia said excitingly. “William would be sorry for calling you fat.”

  “So, you’re staying until the fireworks?” the twins asked excitedly in unison.

  “Aunt Claudia will leave tonight,” Jacob answered sternly before Claudia could say anything as he suddenly appeared at the door. The girls’ faces dropped in disappointment and they returned to their beds.

  “I’ll take you back to the hotel.”

  Claudia glared at him, she smiled softly at the kids and kissed them on the forehead. “Don’t worry, I’ll talk to your Dad, I promise” she whispered.

  Claudia stormed out of the room angrily and headed downstairs, she walked to the kitchen and Jacob followed her.

  Something tickled Jacob’s heart when he saw the sparking fury in Claudia’s eyes, he saw it earlier on as well when she protected Frank from the social worker. Her eyes increased in size and her nose shrunk a bit, her lips became thinner as she frowned. Jacob wanted to pull her close and kiss her, but she pushed him away.

  “Why do you have to crush those girls’ joy?” Claudia confronted Jacob.

  “Me? You know that you’re not going to stay with us,” Jacob retorted. “You’re giving my daughters false hopes!”

  “Why are you so persistent in making me leave? I already made up my mind, I’m staying in this trial marriage,” Claudia reminded him. “And, perhaps….”

  “This ain’t gonna work!” Jacob yelled, but he controlled his voice to avoid being heard by everyone in the house. “Look at you, you’re not fit for this, you’re a city girl, a model. You don’t even know how to cook!”

  Claudia turned red with anger, she pushed Jacob further and retorted, “Is that it? Just because I don’t know how to cook? Marry Becky then, she’s too eager to do the housewife chores for you.”

  “Becky?” Jacob said with a puzzled look on his face. A victorious smile appeared on his face when he realized that Claudia was jealous. He raised an eyebrow and said, “at least, Becky knows how to cook unlike you. You don’t know anything about being a wife!”

  “Oh, bullshit! We both know you love fucking me like a wife!” Claudia countered spontaneously.

  Jacob was shocked by her response, even Claudia was surprised by her own outburst. Silence filled the kitchen, their breaths could be heard loudly around the room.

  Jacob wanted to object, but his heart synced in agreement with Claudia’s response. His cock twitched hard and reminded him of how he felt making love to Claudia, he could not forget that passionate night in Barcelona. Jacob wanted to relive that magical moment with her, a moment where he was not afraid of what would happen next, where everything was perfect – everything was fated.

  That moment is now, Jacob gave in. He wrapped his arm around Claudia’s waist and wrapped his other arm around her shoulders, she gasped and Jacob grabbed the opportunity to slide his lips between her parted lips. She objected for a moment, but he deepened his kiss. Claudia’s lips curve
d into a smile before she let Jacob devour her completely.

  Jacob pushed Claudia to the table, he pulled away and looked straight into her eyes, his heart throbbed hard as Claudia’s burning desire mirrored his. She is wrong, Jacob thought. He did not like fucking her like a wife, he loved owning her more than he ever wanted his wife or any woman in his life.

  Different thoughts crossed Jacob’s mind, his doubt about her returned, his fear that his daughters would be hurt made his heart tremble. He was also afraid that when Claudia finds out about his past, she would leave him forever. She might agree with him that he did not deserve any love, the mere thought of losing Claudia was too much for him to bear.

  “Don’t say you can’t do this again,” Claudia muttered quietly when Jacob stopped kissing her.

  Jacob looked into Claudia’s eyes, her sincerity calmed all his fears. He cupped her face and caressed his thumbs on her cheeks. He fought his tears while confessing, “I cannot offer you anything, Claudia, I’m not gonna stop riding bulls, I will not be with you all the time. That’s the reality of becoming my wife.”

  Claudia fell silent, then she smiled softly and caressed Jacob’s face, “Will there be a chance you’ll love me?” Claudia asked expectantly.

  Jacob looked at Claudia, she was still hopeful for true love and the romance she desired. He smiled and pressed his face closer to hers, “I already am,” he confessed before sliding his mouth onto Claudia’s.

  A tear fell down Claudia’s cheeks, she pulled away from Jacob and answered, “You have a lot to offer me, more than you can ever imagine.”

  Claudia flung her arms around Jacob’s neck, pulled him closer to her and kissed him passionately. Her heart thumped hard as she let go of all her doubts towards Jacob, he also threw away his doubts and let his desires take control of them.

  “Jacob,” Claudia moaned with a smile. She could finally call him by his name, he belonged to her now.

  He lifted her from the floor and placed her on the table, he pulled away from her lips and trailed her neck and chest with kisses. His hands searched desperately on her back for the fastener of her bra, Claudia pulled his head away from her chest and informed him with a chuckle, “It’s in the front.”

  Jacob chuckled and moved a hand to the front, he pressed his lips on Claudia’s mouth as he released her breasts. A moan escaped his mouth as his hands felt the warmth of her firm breasts.

  She pushed him away a little and removed her blouse, desire filled his eyes as he saw her firm breasts again. He planted soft kisses on each breast and Claudia strummed her fingers on the back of his neck. She moaned louder when Jacob’s kisses became intense and wetter, she wriggled under him when he traced the valley between her breasts with his wet tongue.

  Jacob trailed kisses from the valley down to Claudia’s navel, she arched her body to give him more access. She giggled when he caressed her flab with his lips and tickled it with his tongue. She breathed deeply when Jacob unbuttoned her pants, “We can’t do this here,” Claudia said coyly.

  Jacob smiled and nodded, he lifted Claudia from the table and carried her up the stairs, she could not stop smiling. He looked at her, smiled and said teasingly, “Is this how much you want me?”

  Claudia pulled Jacob’s head closer to her, she kissed him gently and said lovingly, “This is how much I want to love you.”

  Her words made Jacob’s eyes twinkle with joy, he kept his mouth locked with hers as he carried her to his room. Jacob suddenly stopped at the sight of his bed.

  It had been a long time since he had sex in bed, his bed was only for his wife and him. He did not want to taint the memory of Emily. She might have not been the woman he loved, but she was the only woman he had in bed. His bed was sacred.

  “Is something wrong?” Claudia asked, with fear in her voice.

  Jacob flashed a wide grin and shook his head, he walked and laid her on the bed, showered her with fiery kisses and whispered, “This is where you belong.”

  #

  Belong. Claudia felt the very truth of the word. She belonged in Jacob’s bed. She belonged in his arms. Her heart belonged to him. She brushed her palms on Jacob’s shoulders and pushed him to her side, he smiled when Claudia climbed on top of him and unbuttoned his shirt.

  He grunted as she traced his lines with her lips, Claudia reached for his nipple and tickled it with her tongue. He threaded his fingers in between her long blonde locks and pushed her lower, she traced the band of his pants with her tongue as she unbuckled his cowboy belt.

  Claudia looked at Jacob and smiled. The young rodeo took control of everything when they were in Barcelona, he did not care about what she wanted then, it did not matter, Jacob knew exactly what she needed. He was an experienced lover, which made that night unforgettable.

  She wished to repay that moment, she wanted to give the cowboy the love and the pleasure he deserved. Claudia vowed to convince Jacob that she was the woman for him – the wife meant for him.

  Claudia’s gulp resonated around the room when she revealed his cock. It was hard, long and wide, she wondered how it did not break her the first time they made love. A jagged breath left Jacob’s mouth when she held the base of his cock tenderly.

  “Claudia,” he let out a loud moan when she caught his sac with her mouth.

  Jacob shivered hard when Claudia ran her tongue along the bottom of his cock, she stopped at the tip and wrapped her lips around his wide girth. She swiveled her tongue around the tip while sucking it, her lips moved lower and her warm mouth engulfed half of Jacob’s length.

  He grabbed a bunch of Claudia’s hair and used it to guide her in bobbing her head. Claudia held back from gagging as the tip of Jacob’s cock reach deep into her throat, Jacob trembled as she sucked and blew on his cock.

  He pulled Claudia higher and leveled his face to hers, caught her lips and they shared a passionate kiss. “I want to be inside you now,” Jacob said.

  He wrestled Claudia and positioned her on her back, he showered her neck and breast with wet kisses while his other hand felt the wetness of Claudia’s slit. She had been ready for him since they first kissed. Claudia caressed his shoulders as he guided his cock to her opening.

  “Fuck,” Claudia groaned when Jacob’s cock spread her walls.

  He had a healthy cock that made her feel like a virgin all over again. Her walls tightened around his cock and pulsed hard in every move it made, she almost exploded in orgasm when he pushed deeper into her. Her body shuddered under him and became greedy for pleasure.

  “Control it,” Jacob moaned loudly as he moved in and out of Claudia.

  Claudia took a deep breath and calmed her desires as she struggled to match Jacob’s rhythm, his every move pushed her to the edge of her orgasm. Her fingers pressed harder into his shoulders as he thrust deeper into her. Her walls contracted tighter as she struggled to control her orgasm, they squeezed his cock harder and triggered it to reach his climax faster.

  “Damn it,” Jacob uttered when he could not control his urge to come either.

  Claudia groaned when he pulled away from her, but her lips curved into a smile when Jacob repositioned her. He spread her legs wider and thrust his cock inside her in one long stroke, her hips quivered from the beautiful pain and pleasure of her walls spreading and clinging tightly to Jacob’s vibrating cock.

  Jacob moved harder and deeper, his thrusts were so powerful that it lifted her hips from the bed without him holding her. Claudia gripped on to her cowboy’s arms tighter as he set off the journey to their orgasm. Every thrust he made gathered a magnificent heat inside her, the heat settled above her crotch. Claudia wanted to release it, but she waited for confirmation, she wanted to explode together with Jacob.

  Their moans and gasped harmonized like a combined melody of a piano and a violin. Their hips moved together as if they danced tango in bed.

  Claudia pressed her heels onto Jacob’s butt when he tried to withdraw, “Don’t,” she uttered. She wanted to feel the warmth of his seed, sh
e wanted more reasons to become the cowboy’s wife.

  Jacob listened to Claudia, he thrust deeper instead of withdrawing. Claudia arched her body so that he could lead her to her pending orgasm.

  The beautiful heat exploded and Claudia arched her body more, Jacob held her tighter as she shuddered against him. As the pleasure rippled all over her, Jacob moved closer against her and reached his own climax. He exploded and let his seed fuel their orgasm.

  “I love you,” Claudia uttered when Jacob fell on her chest.

  Their sweaty bodies kept them warm, their pulsating hearts made them shudder from the tiny ends of their orgasms.

  “Stay. Stay here forever,” Jacob said in between breaths.
