Thankfully it was nice and warm in here, compliments of the propane fueled infrared heater tucked away in the corner.
“Got back about half an hour ago. Just doing the order. Give it a quick read and see if you agree with the amounts.” Dan said.
Brady leaned over and checked and nodded his approval.
“Yep, I think that should to it,” he said.
“Good. And now we hit send, and voila.” Dan pushed the enter button and Brady sighed in relief.
He knew that by this month’s end, the feed company they used would have what they needed and packed on small pallets to their specifications. When the order was ready, JJ would fly one of them and a lightweight forklift they had purchased for such occasions out to Thunder Bay. Their order would be ready at the airport and they would load the skids onto the plane in such a way that the weight of the items was distributed evenly, and JJ could fly the plane with no problems.
“Yeah, and we did just as we planned,” Rafe said. “We split up and checked the east section to make sure the last plane drop of food was successful. All the hale bales exploded on impact and the cattle are getting access to their feed and nutrients. Everything looks good. The creeks and rivers are flowing, and no sign of wolves.”
“Good stuff,” Brady said.
He’d been away all day on his snowmobile too, and with the days still being short, it had been dark and cold when he’d returned. He’d been out to the northern perimeter to look for wolf tracks and to check the snow-covered meadows with the older cattle. He would quickly bring Rafe and Dan up to date on his findings and then get into the ranch house to see JJ and Chrissy.
Every time he was away from them, he missed them like crazy and today was no exception. He especially loved the cute little smiles his kid gave him when she saw him, and he swore too that she was even trying to say the word daddy, although JJ insisted she was still too young to talk.
“Had to break open one of the creeks for the cattle to get access to water. Figured the warm weather would take care of it, but not that one creek that always freezes up. Maybe in the future if we get more extreme winters due to climate change, we keep the cattle out of that meadow. Too time consuming,” Brady suggested.
“And it’s a pain worrying about them not getting a good drink,” he continued. “A fence was downed by a tree branch. Took care of it. A tree fell onto one of the shelters, but it’s too big to do in one day. No significant damage that I could see to the building, so I left it for another day. I’ll put it on our list of things to do. Everything else looked good on my run. And I haven’t seen the wolves either.”
“Good. That’s four weeks now with no wolf sightings. Maybe our tactics in scaring the crap out of them with gunshots finally chased them off,” Dan said.
“I bet the wolves headed south. With more snow usual, it would be harder for them to get around and take down the beef,” Rafe replied.
“And I for one am not complaining about this mild weather we’ve been having lately. It’s been nice to have a warm ass while working outdoors,” Dan said with a chuckle.
“Hate to rain on your parade, my man, but I heard on the satellite radio last night that today was the last nice day. Going to be back to frigid again overnight and colder days. They figure it will stay cold well into April,” Rafe said.
“I’m sure I can help keep you boys warm.”
The instant Brady heard JJ’s sexy-toned voice drift into the barn office, he knew she was back to her old self again. It had been torture seeing her tired and not her usual cheerful self since the baby had been born. With them not being able to do anything about it, except as Layla had instructed, be patient and help JJ out as much as possible and just wait until her hormones righted themselves, it was frustrating not to be able to do more for her. Lately though, he’d noticed she was starting to hum again while she cooked and that extra sparkle in her sweet laughter when one of them told her a joke, was coming back.
At her voice, all three of them turned to the open office doorway, but she wasn’t there.
“Where is she? Sounded like she was right here?” Dan questioned.
“The baby monitor,” Rafe suddenly whispered and nodded to the monitor that had been placed on a work shelf.
Shit. Why hadn’t he noticed the baby monitor in here? JJ didn’t come out here into the barn often, she was too busy with the baby and chores, so having a monitor out here meant she was up to something.
“The little vixen,” Brady whispered as understanding dawned on him.
“Why don’t you boys drop all your work attire and join me upstairs in my bedroom?” her voice echoed from the baby monitor.
“Drop our work attire?” Dan laughed. “Wonder what she means by that?”
Brady wasn’t going to wait around for Dan to figure it out, and it appeared neither was Rafe, because the two of them practically had to squeeze past each other to get out the office doorway.
“Last one here, gets to tie me down,” she purred. But Brady barely heard her as he raced Rafe toward the barn exit door.
A shout from Dan telling them to wait up, only made Brady move faster.
Damn! But his balls and cock were already stiff and sore with the anticipation of pleasuring JJ and he couldn’t get to her soon enough.
JJ trembled as she heard the stomping of their boots coming up the outside stairs of the ranch, followed by the squeak of the mudroom door being opened. She’d managed to get C.J. down for her nap in the nursery and if they had any luck, the baby would sleep for a couple of hours allowing JJ some much needed play time.
She inhaled as she heard their voices quieten. Wasn’t surprised in the least when they didn’t come upstairs right away. She’d left them a little present right there on the bottom step. It was a big enough sized basket filled with condoms and some cute little adult toys she’d purchased online days ago and Blue had delivered via discreet packages yesterday with their mail.
Her heart began to thump as she envisioned how they must be feeling after so many weeks of no sex. Probably just as tense and excited as she was to finally get back into the swing of things. She’d dressed in black fish net stocking, a cute red see-through baby doll teddy and she wore the gold cowboy earrings they’d gotten her at Christmas.
She’d been surprised they hadn’t remembered today was a special romantic day for couples. Not that the four of them were a traditional couple, but still, they had remembered the other years.
She didn’t want any gifts from them. That’s not what this day was about for her. They gave her gifts everyday by helping her with the baby and assisting her with her chores. To have a Happy Valentine’s Day kiss from each of them instead of a friendly peck on the cheek when they’d gone out to work this morning, would have been nice though.
But she had caught on quickly, they’d forgotten today was Valentine’s Day.
JJ frowned as she waited. Was she being selfish? They were so busy with the ranch, working outdoors all the time and coming home tired and then helping her. But lately they’d become a fever in her blood. A few times she’d even had the urge to just grab one of them and insist he make love to her right then and there. It had been torture waiting on those toys and this sexy negligee to be delivered and then waiting all day for the guys to come home. She’d already made supper, and had refrigerated everything for later.
So much later.
“So, Dan, have you caught on what JJ meant?” Rafe chuckled as he watched Dan and Brady stare at the white wicker basket full of naughty stuff.
“It’s been so freaking long, why in heck would you expect me to catch on in a split second? At least I finally got it when she said tie me down,” Dan shot back.
They fell silent for a moment as they studied the red cock rings, the red blindfold with little white hearts, the cute little heart-shaped handcuffs lying amongst the heart-shaped candy lollipops, and a life-like chocolate penis wrapped in plastic topped off with a big red puffy bow.
“I’m det
ecting a theme here, gentlemen,” Rafe muttered. Guilt shot through Dan as he remembered this was supposed to be a special day. He’d blown it. Big time.
Hell, from their surprised expressions on their faces, Dan and Brady realized they’d blown it as well.
“I’m detecting we forgot something, gentlemen,” Brady said.
“Man, talk about a guilt trip. With everything that’s been going on, it looks like we forgot Valentine’s Day, gentlemen,” Dan said with a frown.
Man, JJ should be putting all three of them into the doghouse. Instead, she was giving them a gift despite them forgetting the importance of today.
“Man, this sucks. I hope she doesn’t feel obligated?” Dan complained.
Brady shook his head. “I think this is the real deal. She’s been more cheerful lately. More like her old self.”
Rafe nodded in agreement. Come to think of it, Brady was right.
“Yeah, she’s laughing more at my bad jokes. It was happening so slowly, I hadn’t even realized it,” Dan replied.
Man, JJ was the best in not getting ticked off because they’d forgotten. Suddenly Rafe didn’t feel so bad anymore.
“Not to fear, gentlemen. The night is still young. I don’t hear a baby crying and we’ve got one willing woman waiting for us upstairs. We’ve got a lot to make up to her for forgetting Valentine’s Day. And I suggest we get our asses in gear and start by giving her the pleasure filled Happy Valentine’s evening that she’s looking for?” Rafe urged.
There was a round of eager nods as Dan and Brady both smiled.
“I do like your idea, Rafe,” Brady replied with an eyebrow wiggle.
“And I’m thinking I’m in the mood to pleasure,” Dan said as he gripped the handle of the basket.
Rafe seized Dan by his elbow, stopping him cold.
“Hold on. We can’t just go rushing up there like bulls in heat. We’ll scare her off. Settle down, my fellow bucks. Let’s get our heads together and crack a plan.”
JJ frowned as she lay on her bed and stared at the doorway. Still nothing. It had been at least fifteen minutes since the guys had come inside. There had been a volley of low murmurs and then she’d heard the shower running in the downstairs bathroom. Figured maybe they were cleaning up. She could wait. But not forever!
Then she thought she’d heard something in the hallway and when she’d gone to look, there had been no one there. Now there was nothing but silence.
What was going on?
Frustration gnawed through her. This was not what she had been expecting. She’d thought all three of them would come up the stairs, undress her, not that there was much to undress, tie her to her bed and start making love to her. Hard, fast and rough, just the way she wanted it.
She frowned as she stared at her fishnet stockings and wiggled her toes. Maybe she should have invested in a pair of nice fancy high heels to compliment the outfit, just like she’d seen in the picture on the Internet? Nah, it would have been a waste of money and she hated heels.
A sudden noise in the doorway had JJ’s head snapping from her feet to the foot of her bed. She gasped as she saw all three of her cowboys standing there inside the doorway.
They were clean shaven and dressed in the same fancy clothing that she had insisted they wear to the Christmas party weeks ago. Each man also had a bright red artificial rose pinned to their top. It appeared that her basket had clued them in that it was Valentine’s Day.
She giggled. She recognized the roses. They had raided the fake bouquet she’d purchased at an inexpensive store and placed in a vase to brighten up her kitchen. Such handy men.
Best of all, they all wore their cowboy hats, giving glimpses of damp hair. It appeared they had all showered downstairs and in record time.
Ripples of excitement blew through her. Fully dressed men, wasn’t what she had expected, however, cowboy hats were always welcome in her bedroom.
“Wow,” she whispered. “You guys sure do clean up nice. I’ve missed you and your hats.”
“You look hot, JJ,” Dan complimented.
“Hot enough to burn me up,” Rafe growled.
“Sexy fever hot,” Brady said.
He broke ranks with the guys and strolled around to the side of her bed.
“We snuck in to see the baby and she’s out like a light,” Brady said. He held out his hand to her and wiggled his fingers.
“Come on, baby. We want to show you something.”
There was a mischievous gleam in his blue eyes and hesitantly she grabbed his hand and allowed him to help her off the bed. He grabbed the baby monitor from her night table, then pulled her past the guys and then into the hallway.
“Where are we going?” she asked Brady.
“Shhh, come downstairs. We don’t want to wake the baby and we might if we stay up here.”
Oh. She had planned on not crying out while they made love to her. Had thought she could handle the pleasure, but maybe should couldn’t?
The guys remained silent as they walked her down the stairs. Brady pulled her into the living room and JJ smiled as she saw what they’d been up to.
As Brady set the baby monitor on a nearby bookshelf, she gazed around the room. They had taken out the short stemmed white emergency candles, and placed them in cups on shelves along the living room window sill and up on the fireplace mantel. The candles’ tiny little flames flickered romantically, and a cheerful fire crackled and sparkled in the hearth, casting a sensual glow around the living room. The largest sofa had been laden with blankets and pillows.
“Very impressive. Are we having a sleep over?” she teased.
“A hell of a long one,” Dan replied in a lust-filled voice that made her breath catch.
She noted the knotty-pine coffee table had been pushed out of the way, and the condoms from her basket had been arranged over the tabletop.
“Look up,” Brady said in a husky voice as he held her hands tight.
When she did as he asked, she spied a mistletoe hanging above them and right beside it dangled the red heart-shaped handcuffs she’d put in the basket earlier. Rafe reached up and tugged the cuffs lower and she realized they were attached to a rope that was coiled around a ceiling beam.
She’d thought they would use the cuffs on her tonight up in her room, but these fellows obviously had something else in mind.
“Since we never got a chance to hang the mistletoe for Christmas, due to the baby arriving, we thought we would pick up with the mistletoe and carry on from there with the toys in your Valentine’s basket,” Dan said softly.
She trembled as Dan moved in behind her and to her left. Brady lifted her arms and a moment later he had her restrained in the handcuffs.
“We’re really sorry we forgot today was Valentine’s Day and we’ve missed you, baby. Missed this so much,” Rafe whispered as he also moved closer behind her and to her right.
With every inhalation, their scents filled her lungs. Delicate soaps intermingled with each man’s unique masculine smells of sexual need, dominance, and possession.
Brady turned to face her. His blue eyes blazed with heat.
“Sweetness, you’re everything to us. The center of our world. We love you like crazy,” he said softly.
Emotions welled inside JJ at Brady’s intimate words.
“I love all of you too,” she whispered back. Boy, did she ever love them.
“Hand me that chocolate dildo, man,” Brady suddenly demanded. His gaze had darkened, and she heard the rustle of plastic as one of the guys removed the dildo from its wrapping.
“Here,” Brady said softly as the life-like toy suddenly appeared in front of her face.
“I want to watch you lick it, so I can see how you are going to take me, later,” he demanded as he touched the treat to her lips. She opened her mouth and licked at the cockhead. Sweetness sparkled over the tip of her tongue.
Who knew a chocolate cock could taste so good?
She opened her mouth wider and accepted the sugary
shaft, feeling some of the melting chocolate dribble down her chin. While she sucked the treat, she imagined Brady as he thrust his cock slowly in and out of her mouth. Without warning, a luscious smooth chocolatey syrup flowed from the tip of the toy and entered her mouth. She eagerly swallowed, knowing the chocolate would give her much needed energy for this evening.
She heard their breaths quicken as she lapped and licked. Heard their soft moans and low curses as she sucked the chocolate cock deeper and deeper into her mouth.
Suddenly Brady swore and withdrew.
JJ jerked against her restraints and whimpered as Brady lowered his head and licked the chocolate from her chin. The toy was forgotten as he pressed his warm mouth to hers, delicately sipping at her bottom lip.
The hunger inside of her rose as Brady’s tongue suddenly and boldly entered her mouth. Sparks rocked through her as his tongue touched hers. At first, he dabbed tenderly, tentatively exploring her length and then just like old lovers meeting again after a long time, his tongue stroked and caressed and made love to hers, sending a volley of shivers racing through her body right down her legs and into her toes.
Sensations rocked her as Brady moved his body slightly away from hers and impatient hands smoothed over her body. She could hear Rafe’s harsh breathing as he began to undress her. Could feel her breathing and impatience pound her as her fishnet stockings were removed. She stepped out of them. Then the rest of her clothing fell away and Rafe’s hot hands caressed her milk-laden breasts, tweaked her sensitive nipples, then smoothed along her sides and massaged her buttocks.
“She’s wearing a plug,” came Rafe’s hoarse whisper.
If the plug didn’t tip them off that she wanted more than oral from them, then she was going to have a frustration fit. Those thoughts disintegrated as animalist growls of approval erupted from Brady and flew right into her mouth. His kiss deepened, overloading her senses, bringing her into a wonderful lightheaded world of pleasure.
