Chapter One
Faith looked back at the house sitting on the hill behind her, the house that held all of her childhood memories and nightmares. She hated to leave her sisters behind but there was no longer any choice for her. Today was her twenty first birthday and everyone knew what that meant. Today would be her wedding day.
Her father had made it clear that since he had nothing but stupid daughters that he would get out of them what he had always wanted most. Sons or at least the equivalent. So on their twenty first birthdays they were to be wed to whatever person he had already chosen for them and become someone else’s problem from that point on. But Faith couldn’t do what was expected of her, was tired of even trying. So today was the day that she left this dead end town behind and faced her future on her own. The only thing she regretted was the four sisters she was forced into leaving behind.
Hope would be the oldest now, but at least at eighteen she would still have a few more years to look after the others before she was placed on the marriage block. Then there was Charity who was just sixteen and already the beauty of them all. Prudence was fourteen and all long legs and arms. And baby Destiny was just twelve and still so much a needy child that it broke Faith’s heart. She had tried so hard to be the mother they had been denied. But there came a time when you either had to give in or take a stand, and Faith was ready to take a stand.
She brushed the tears from her eyes and turned back toward the woods beside the edge of the drive. No more looking back. No more dying a little more inside every day that she stayed with him. Finally it was her turn to find a life of her own as far away from Daddy and his rules as she could run. All she needed was a little faith.
She barrelled through the woods close to the road so that she could follow it as far as she could before having to veer into sight. She’d rather make her way as far as possible without being seen and returned to her father and fiancé. She shuddered at just the thought of Clifton, the man she was to marry. He was one of her dad’s buddies and repulsive in every way imaginable. He was old, overweight and bald. None of which were necessarily bad but add in the fact that he had the personality of a toad and the manners of one as well and forget it. She only prayed that when the time came her sisters would fair better.
If she could get as far as the Wildlife Reserve that covered over 80,000 acres of the Texas Gulf Coast that she called home, then she might just be able to disappear completely. Or even better if she could get to someplace on the beach maybe she could slip onto a boat and just sail away. She didn’t really care as long as she was gone and Daddy couldn’t find her and bring her back.
Faith groaned as the first drops of rain fell and splattered on the leaves around her. Fall was known for its rainstorms and today would be no exception. If she could be sure of her position then there should be a few cabins just back in the woods. Mr. Boyd, the local banker, rented them out to different people who came to this part of Texas. Most came for the foliage and nature, but mostly for the hunting. With Thanksgiving just around the corner she hoped that there wouldn’t be anyone staying there with hopes of finding a turkey.
The rain began to fall harder and she was quickly soaked through. Her white T-shirt was plastered to her chest and her well worn jeans were even tighter than they had been. She could feel the rain seeping into her shoes and soaking her socks. Every step she took through the fallen leaves had her squishing in her shoes. She thought about stopping to take her jean jacket out of her backpack, but it would just get wet as well and she might need it later if she couldn’t find someplace to hide out ‘til the storm blew over.
She noticed the break in the trees and was happy to see one of the cabins in front of her. It looked pretty empty from the outside, with no vehicles in sight and no smoke coming from the chimney. But she cautiously approached anyway, standing on tiptoe to glance in the window to make sure. The bed looked warm and inviting and she knew that there would be a bathroom inside with plenty of warm running water. Mr. Boyd took good care of the cabins. She stood for a moment unsure of what to do before finally heading to the door and trying the knob. It turned easily and Faith stepped in out of the rain and shut the door behind her. She turned the lock just to be on the safe side and toed out of her soggy shoes by the door before creeping further into the room.
She couldn’t chance lighting a fire. That might draw someone’s attention to her no matter how badly she wanted to. So she dropped her backpack by the bed and headed into the bathroom. She’d take a shower in the dark and warm up as much as she could before getting fresh, dry clothes out of her bag. If she could, she’d wait the rain out here before setting off again. She would get away. All she had to do was stay smart and alert. Her entire life was waiting for her. Anywhere but here.
Jake Daniels stood in the shadows at the back of the cabin, partially hidden by the armoire that stood next to the office he had just finished working in. He had requested this cabin specifically for the office. He loved the way that the door blended into the wall. If you didn’t know that it was there then you wouldn’t even see it. He’d never been so happy about that before today.
He’d had to blink his eyes several times to make sure that he wasn’t imagining the blonde haired beauty that walked into the cabin. He knew from the immediate hardening of his dick that it was none other than little Faith Coulter. He’d been coming here for years just to get a glimpse of her, which was all that her father allowed. He could understand. She was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen and Jake had seen plenty of women during his travels. But Faith was definitely one of a kind. She was a small woman, standing only five foot one or two, making her at least a foot shorter than his six foot two inch frame. But she had lush curves in all the right places, long blonde curls
that swung most often in a ponytail that hung to her perfectly rounded bottom. It was her eyes that got him most. She had the biggest, deepest green eyes he had ever seen. Eyes filled with secrets, fears and, he was damn sure, passion. She was just waiting for the right man to initiate her and Jake had long ago planned to make sure that he was that man. Hell, that was why he was here now.
He had heard through his contact in town that she was to be married soon and that was one thing that he wouldn’t let happen unless he knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that it was what she wanted. Then he had met her fiancé, a man old enough to be her father. The very thought of such a man touching her face, much less her body had set his gut to churning in anger. He almost laughed at the way that fate sometimes delivered what you desired most into your hands.
He had been in the office for the last few hours trying to figure out how to put a plan into motion to kidnap Faith before her wedding. Now he didn’t have to. No, the woman who was constantly on his mind had delivered herself right into his hands. And if his ears didn’t deceive him she was naked in the shower at this moment. He groaned and ran a hand along the rigid length of his denim covered cock. He had exactly one night to convince her that he was the man for her. One night to make sure that she was willing to leave this small town behind and explore the world with him on his boat. All he needed was a little faith. Then nothing else would ever do.
He crept stealthily on bare feet to the door of the bathroom and managed to snag her wet clothes without alerting her to his presence. He took them and her backpack into the office for safe keeping. He didn’t plan on her wearing anything but him for the next few hours. He couldn’t resist the impulse to raise her damp panties to his nose and inhale the scent of her sex. A groan tore from his throat though he tried hard to stifle it. She smelled sweet and hot, like warmed syrup on a cold morning. He planned to sate his hunger for her by eating that tasty pussy until she begged for him to stop. Then he would fuck her until they both screamed from the pleasure. By the time he was done with her she would be more than willing to follow him anywhere. Lord knew he already felt that way about her.
He placed the panties on the top of her pile of clothes and slipped back out of the office making sure to close the door behind him. She’d never find it, or her clothes, until he was ready for her to. The shower was still running and he smiled at how good she would look naked and dripping with water. He’d waited a long time to have his way with Faith and if he was lucky she’d have her way with him as well. If they were both lucky tonight would be only the beginning of the rest of their lives.
He moved one of the chairs from the dining table to the darkest part of the room, blocking the front door and leaving her no where to go but where he wanted her most, the bed. Any minute now his lush angel would walk out that door wondering where her clothes were. And then she’d be his.
Chapter Two
Faith reluctantly turned the shower off and reached for a towel. She was startled when all she encountered was a small washcloth. She should have paid more attention before disrobing and at least hunted for a towel. Now she was stuck trying to dry off as best she could with this tiny scrap before heading to her backpack for fresh clothes. She rubbed briskly at her wet skin, already turning cool after her hot shower.
The first thing that she noticed when she stepped out of the tub was that her clothes weren’t where she had left them. The door was still open and she didn’t hear any noise. No lights were on but she still felt her breath freeze in her lungs. What if someone was out there just waiting for her to step out. She was naked as the day she was born and there was nothing in the bathroom to even use for a weapon. She took a deep breath and tiptoed toward the door that led back into the main room of the cabin.
She stood there for a moment, one hand clutching the wash cloth to her chest while her other hand held the door knob behind her. If nothing else she figured that she could hide out in the bathroom, or at least try to. She peeked around the corner and didn’t see anything or anyone. Oh God! Maybe she had left her clothes by the bed. She was so exhausted from her sleepless night and the stress she had been under recently that anything was possible.
She scurried across to the bed and searched this way and that for her backpack and clothes. They weren’t there.
“Where the hell did I put them?” she murmured aloud. Then jumped and screamed when a deep voice came out of the darkness in reply.
“I moved them.”
Her only covering, the minute washcloth went flying leaving her completely naked before the stranger. She turned to make a dash back for the bathroom but didn’t make it more than two steps. She was swept into a pair of strong arms and pulled up against a hard chest. No matter how much she wiggled and struggled against him, he held tight. She could feel his body against hers, especially the parts that seemed to be getting harder and longer.
He groaned and Faith found herself pressed between his body and the wall, her feet dangling off the floor. His body forced her legs apart and she cried out with surprise when he ground his desire against her. He buried his head in her hair and seemed to wallow in it.
“You’re better than I ever dreamed, and believe me, I’ve dreamed about you non stop for years now.”
The voice was familiar but Faith couldn’t be sure who it was without seeing his face. The only thing she was sure of was that he wasn’t from around here, which could be either good or bad.
“Who are you?” she whispered. “What do you plan to do to me?”
He pulled his head back and finally she got a good look at him. She couldn’t believe her eyes when she realised it was none other than Jake Daniels. It was a local joke among the women that the men wanted to drink Jack Daniels while the women just wanted a night with Jake Daniels. And Faith was just as smitten with him as every other woman in town. He had been coming here for years now and she had taken every opportunity that she could to run into him in town. He was the most gorgeous man she had ever laid eyes on. He was at least a foot taller than her five foot two inches and his black hair was long and thick hanging just past his shoulders. He had the muscled physique of a seasoned athlete. His eyes were dark as sin and his olive complexion set off his perfect smile making sure that every eye was drawn to him as soon as he entered the room.
“Jake?” she questioned. What was he doing here? And why did it seem like he was here for her?
“I wanted to woo you,” he muttered burying his head in her neck, nipping and sucking at her flesh. “I wanted to say and do all the right things for you. And I will, Faith. I promise that I will. But I want you so bad. I don’t think I can take it as slow and easy as I wanted to.”
She moaned when he used his tongue to explore her ear and her body arched into his bringing a groan from him as well.
“Tell me you want me Faith. Tell me that you want me half as much as I want you before I die from desire.” His words were a harsh rasp but she could hear the desperation in his voice. It shuddered through her as well.
She’d wanted him for years, dreamt about him being her first lover, about him sweeping her away from here and taking her with him. Maybe she couldn’t have that dream but here he was offering her part of it. He could be her first lover.
“Yes,” she breathed lifting her hands to clasp them in his hair. “I want you Jake.”
He grasped her hips and lifted her from the wall. She wrapped her legs around his waist, keeping them aligned in all the right spots while he walked the short distance to the bed. He lowered them slowly, placing her on her back and easing down over her. It was erotic to lie naked under him while he was still fully clothed. And when he looked at her with eyes that smouldered with desire she felt moisture coat her channel in preparation for the carnal act that was soon to follow.
He groaned and eased up enough to rip his T-shirt over his head and out of the way. She was eager to explore his chest with her hands but he closed the space between them too quickly and she let them wander over his back and shoulders i
nstead. He took her mouth with a demanding kiss, his tongue urging her to open so that he could show her what it really meant to kiss a man. It was everything that she had imagined and so much more. He tasted of peppermint and something uniquely his own and without thought she sucked greedily on him for more.
He groaned and thrust his denim covered erection against her. She cried out as the material scraped over her swollen clit, needy and ready for more, for everything. He reluctantly pulled from her lips and moved down her throat and over her chest to her turgid nipples. Her breasts were swollen and sensitive in a way they never had been before. It was like a fire in her veins when he wrapped his lips around one peak and sucked hard on her. It sent a fire deep into her belly that sent a fresh coat of moisture to glisten on her thighs and his jeans.
“I can feel how hot and wet you are,” he groaned. “I knew you would be.”
All she could do was moan her pleasure as he went from one nipple to the other, feeding on her as she had watched babies suckle their mothers. She could feel the tight band in her stomach grow tighter and tighter until finally it burst in a shower of stars and colours. Warmth spread through her body and a rush of fluid flowed from her.
“I want to taste you. I can feel your juices soaking my cock through my jeans.” He glanced up at her and his eyes were impossibly darker, his lids heavy with desire. “I want to eat that hot little pussy until you come for me again.”
She was lost in his eyes, lost in feelings that were raging through her body in a kaleidoscope. She felt like she was going to explode again from his words alone. He must have read what he needed on her face because the next thing she knew he was easing further down the bed. She felt him bury his face in the curls that crowned her sex and for the longest time he just stayed still, breathing her in like he couldn’t get enough of her scent.
