“Kiss me without touching any of me but my lips.”
Hunter brushed his lips across her mouth, and then he kissed her hard. His tongue raked across the inside of her mouth and tangled with hers. Her hand, wrapped around his warm, hard cock, moved up and down its length.
She pulled away briefly and grabbed the condom on the bedside table. Then she slowly rolled it down his dick as she stared into his loving eyes. When she finished, her finger rubbed across the crown and her other hand squeezed him.
His body shook, and she knew she’d pushed him to the edge. Taking hold of his shorts and jeans, she swept them the rest of the way down. Hunter quickly stepped out of them. She started to speak when he suddenly grabbed her.
Hunter placed her back against the wall, wrapped her legs around his waist, and plunged deep into her juicy pussy.
“Damn, I’d have exploded if I waited a second longer,” he said in her ear. He pounded deep and hard into her pussy.
Excitement zipped up her spine. Her body shook with the intense reactions created from his exquisite, demanding thrusts.
A balloon of ecstasy built quickly and burst into a thousand stars as her pussy walls rippled around his cock. Hunter yelled out his release and his cock vibrated inside her pussy.
He held her tight as their insides hummed with delight. When he let her legs down, she leaned against his hard frame. They were wet with perspiration and their breath came in gasps.
He bent down and looked into her eyes. “Darlin’, if you ever plan to do that to me again, warn me. I’ll rest up. Otherwise I just might die of the best and hardest orgasm I’ve ever had.” He grinned. “Don’t think about not showing up Sunday. After this I’d track you down and handcuff you to me until we were married.”
Lacey wrapped her arms around his neck and put her hot body tight against his. “I take it you like what I did?”
“Like is a feeble word for the way I felt and feel.”
Grinning from ear to ear, Lacey pranced toward the bathroom. “I’m going to shower.”
* * * *
“I’ll join you in a minute.” Hunter went to the double doors and pulled the curtains partway open. He gazed at the prairie and mountains. If he was any happier he would burst. He lived in the place of his heart, and he was marrying the woman connected to his soul. There wasn’t much else he could want, certainly not anything as important. His body still buzzed with the joy of their union. He’d never expected Lacey had such a sensual side. Opening herself to him tonight had showed him, more than telling him ever could, that she trusted him. His heart swelled with love.
“Are you going to stare outside all night or join me?” Lacey asked. She stood in the bathroom doorway. The light behind her lit her creamy white skin to a glow.
Hunter yanked the curtains closed. “I’m on my way.”
Chapter Eighteen
Lacey’s family arrived Saturday. Lacey and Hunter met their plane. “Welcome back to Pleasure Valley, Mom and Renee. Alex, I hope you enjoy your short visit. You’ll be staying with Hunter’s parents. They have a large house with many bedrooms empty since all their sons have their own homes,” Lacey said as Hunter directed them to the baggage claim area.
Renee hugged Lacey. She whispered in her ear, “Mom’s going to have a talk with you later.” Renee grinned at her sister. Lacey nodded and glanced at her mother. Her parents were watching for their luggage and talking with Hunter.
Her mom turned around. “Where’s Josie?”
“She’s at the Garrisons’. She thought the Garrisons’ SUV might be too crowded with all of us and the luggage if she came along.”
“Did she have her interview?” her mom asked.
“She did, but I’ll let her tell you about it.”
It didn’t take them long to get to the home place. Lacey introduced her family to Mr. and Mrs. Garrison.
“It’s so good to see you, Clarisse,” Mrs. Garrison said to Lacey’s mom. “You haven’t changed much. I’d have known you. Alex, I don’t think we’ve met. But my husband and I are glad to have you join us. We’ve heard lots of good things from Lacey and Josie.” She showed them and Renee to their rooms. “Whenever you’re ready, we’ll be either in the family room or kitchen.”
“Lacey and Josie, stay with us for a few minutes,” her mother directed.
Lacey glanced at Hunter and reluctantly went inside the bedroom. Renee had hurried into her room further down the hall. Lacey had mouthed the word coward at her. Renee had grinned and shut the door.
“Let’s sit by the windows. Mrs. Garrison has a nice arrangement of chairs placed to enjoy the view.” Their mother shooed them in front of her.
Once seated, she studied Lacey. “Are you absolutely certain about what you are doing? I don’t understand the rush. You could have taken more time.”
“I’m very sure I want to marry Hunter. Time wouldn’t change my mind.”
Her mother’s mouth pinched, showing her annoyance. “The first time I believe you were certain also.”
“Mom,” Josie protested. “Don’t try to make Lacey feel sad. She’s happy, and Hunter is nothing like that dork she married first.”
“Josie!” Shock shone on their mother’s face.
Lacey was surprised, too. She hadn’t expected Josie to support her so vehemently.
“I am happy, Mom. I hope you will give me your blessing, but with it or not, the wedding is tomorrow at eleven.”
“Don’t call me when you have your first argument.”
“I don’t intend to. We’ve already had a disagreement and worked it out. Anyway, Mom Garrison and Hunter’s dad will help us if we need it. But we won’t.”
Her mother frowned when she heard Lacey mention the Garrisons. She sniffed and turned to Josie.
“And I suppose you plan on living in this godforsaken place, too.”
“The interview went well. Heath Garrison is going to check my references and if they’re good, which they will be, he’ll hire me on a ninety-day trial both for him and me. In case I don’t like the work or living in Pleasure Valley.”
“At least he’s giving you time to come to your senses. Why you’d want to leave a good-paying job with benefits is totally confusing to me.”
“I’ve hated the job almost from the first. I don’t like living in the city. I’m too shy to fit in and yet here I feel like I can spread my wings and get to know people.”
“You’re living in a fairy tale. I’ll be waiting for your call when you fall out of the clouds.”
“Mom, please try to appear cheerful and happy for us. Do you always have to see the negative side?” Lacey snapped.
“I am not always negative,” her mother snapped back at her.
“You are, unless we do what you think we should,” Lacey said.
“I…”
“Stop, honey.” Alex had been unpacking for them. “The girls are grown. We must and should accept their choices of how they want to live.”
“You are siding with them.” Her mother stared blankly at Alex.
Alex wrapped his arms around her. “There are no sides. We’re family.” He motioned with his hand for Lacey and Josie to leave. They tiptoed out.
“Wow,” Lacey said. “Alex is changing.”
“It’s a good change. Maybe he can help Mom be more accepting of us as adults,” Josie said. “I hope so, because I plan on taking the job here on the ranch, if it’s offered. I’m pretty confident I’ll like living in Pleasure Valley.”
“Who stole my quiet, shy sister?” Lacey teased.
“I don’t know, but I hope she doesn’t return,” Josie said.
* * * *
Josie woke Lacey the next morning. “Wake up, bride. It’s a beautiful day for a wedding.” Josie opened the curtains.
Lacey peeked out of one eye. “I didn’t go to sleep until around three. I was too excited.” She sat on the side of the bed and looked outside.
“Thank goodness it’s sunny,” Lacey said. “We decided to have th
e wedding by the lake behind the home place so we didn’t have to limit the guests and hurt someone’s feelings. Since Hunter is the first Garrison to marry, most of the town wants to come.”
“Does that make you more nervous?” Josie asked.
“Not really. I’ve met so many of the people, and I like them.”
“I’ll fix breakfast while you shower. Then we’ll get your dress out and on and arrange your hair. Mr. Garrison is coming for us in the SUV.”
Lacey stretched and stood by the bed. “Do you like the bridesmaid’s dresses I got for you and Renee?”
“I do, and I love the lilac color. We’ll see what Renee says when we see her, but whether she likes the dress or not, she’ll have to wear it. Go, get ready or you’ll be late for your wedding.” Josie shooed her toward the bathroom.
Lacey was excited, and hurried with her shower and putting on her makeup. For breakfast, she only ate toast.
“My stomach is doing flips. I can’t hold another bite. Help me into my dress, please.”
“I hope your stomach doesn’t growl during the ceremony,” Josie muttered as she followed Lacey into the bedroom.
“Don’t you dare jinx me,” Lacey said. She took the gown they’d found and ordered online out of the closet. Josie helped Lacey slide the long, light-pink wedding gown over her head and down.
The neckline was heart-shaped and the gown had cap sleeves. Chiffon had been layered over the neckline and sleeves, and satin material fit snugly across Lacey’s upper body to the top of her hips. Then the skirt flared out around her. Josie straightened the bottom skirt with its overlay of delicate chiffon in a very slightly darker pink.
“You look beautiful. The color is perfect with your complexion and dark hair.” Josie brushed Lacey’s hair until it shone like silk, and then placed a matching pinkish veil over it. At each corner of the small sparkling tiara she put one small pink rose. They’d received the roses late yesterday.
“The lady who runs the flower shop was so nice to insist you allow her to do your flowers at no charge,” Josie said.
Josie went to get the wedding bouquet, and Lacey put on her elbow-length gloves. When Josie got back, Lacey said, “I can’t believe how beautifully she arranged these flowers. I really wanted to pay her, but she wouldn’t let me. She said it was a wedding gift for Hunter and me. She remembered us from when Hunter and I were friends before I moved.”
“She’s placed pink roses, carnations, and a beautiful purple orchid right in the center.” Josie handed the bouquet to Lacey. “I hear a car. Mr. Garrison must have arrived. Are you ready?”
Lacey grinned. “Yes. I really am.”
Mr. Garrison stopped in the doorway when Lacey walked out of the bedroom. “You are beautiful.” He opened the door for them. “Hunter is waiting impatiently at the arbor of flowers his brothers made for your wedding.”
Cars filled the open area in front of the home place. A temporary wooden walkway had been created for Lacey to walk on to the lakeside. Everyone had apparently gone on ahead to get seated.
Renee came out of the house. She took Lacey’s hands. “I envy you the happiness I see in your face. I’m glad for you.”
“You’ll find the man who’s right for you,” Lacey said.
Her sister winked. “Not until I play some more first. I’m not ready to settle down.”
“You will be,” Lacey told her. “When the right one comes around, he’ll steal your heart.”
“I doubt it.” Renee led the way and Josie followed. Both carried smaller bunches of white carnations and pink roses.
Someone had arranged for music to be piped from the house. When Lacey stepped to the end of the makeshift aisle, the wedding march began. She looked past the guests, down the satin walkway, to Hunter standing by his brother, Heath. He was dressed in a silvery-gray suit. The wind tousled his dark-brown hair and his warm smile greeted her.
With a rush of love and joy, Lacey walked toward him and their future.
* * * *
Hunter carried Lacey over the threshold. “Welcome to our honeymoon cabin, my darling wife.” He kissed her before putting her down. “Was our wedding all that you’d hoped?”
“Every bit as wonderful as I’d dreamed.” She cupped the side of his face in her hands. “I love you, forever and ever.”
Hunter kissed her fingers. “And I you. We made the right decision to wait and see your family off first, today. Even if it did mean we start our honeymoon a day late.”
“I thought we started it very well at your house last night.”
“We did. I’m not complaining. And it’s our house now,” he corrected her, and grinned.
She kissed him and walked to the window to look out at California’s seaside. “This cabin is in a beautiful spot.” The cabin sat on top of a high bluff. Below, waves crashed against the rocks. Moonlight made a silvery path across the water.
“How did you find out about this place?” she asked. “It’s perfect for a honeymoon, isolated and yet there are several towns not far from here.”
“Actually, Heath just bought it a couple of months ago. He offered it to me for us to use.”
“I’ll have to thank him.”
Hunter sauntered up behind her and pulled her body against his. “I for one intend to forget about everyone but you for the next week. I want to taste, touch, explore your body and explore your mind.”
“Do I get to do the same to you?”
“I would be disappointed if you didn’t.”
“Where do we start?”
He swung her into his arms and carried her down a short hallway. At the end, he managed to open the door on the left and stepped inside, still carrying her.
“Oh, my.” Lacey stared out the windows facing the ocean and the two facing the woods. “It’s like stepping outside into nature with all the comforts of home.”
Then she glanced at the bed and saw the covers had been pulled back and the silk sheet had rose petals on it. The sweet fragrance hung in the air. “This is wonderfully romantic, Mr. Garrison.”
“I’d do anything to please my wife.” Hunter sat her on the bedside and removed her shoes. He massaged her feet as she leaned back on her arms and enjoyed the view and the roses’ scent.
“Hmmm, I’m sure I’m in heaven,” she whispered. “I have a handsome husband at my feet, a glorious view surrounding me and a bed of roses to lie on. It can’t get any better.”
“Oh yes it can.” Hunter pulled her further up on the bed and quickly removed the rest of her clothes. “Stay here. I’ll be back, and I’ll show you how much better it can get.”
When Hunter returned, he carried a tray holding two glasses of champagne and a bowl of chocolate-covered strawberries. There was also a bowl of ice cream sitting on a larger bowl of ice.
“Sweets for my honey,” he said, and sat the tray on the bedside table. Then he quickly undressed. He lay beside her and fed her several of the strawberries.
“These are good. How did you manage all of this from Wyoming?”
“Heath gave me a name to call. The lady keeps his cabin clean and stocks it with whatever he wants before he arrives. She’s a handy lady to have around.”
Hunter scooped up a spoonful of the vanilla ice cream and put it to her lips. Then, as she savored the taste, he spread some of the ice cream down the middle of her body.
His tongue followed the line of ice cream, licking it up. The sensation of cold and heat from his mouth had her senses perking up. When he kissed her mouth, she tasted the strawberries and the ice cream.
To remove the stickiness, he rubbed several ice cubes along her middle, and taking a small towel wiped her clean.
She shivered. “That was cold.”
“Don’t worry. I have plans to warm you up.” He rolled her onto her stomach. His hands started at her shoulders and he massaged his way down to her buttocks. Lacey sank into a puddle of desire on the bed.
Hunter continued his massage all the way to her ankles, and then he
kissed his way upward. He nuzzled her neck and she scrunched her shoulder up when he tickled her. He whispered in her ear.
“I’m going to raise your buttocks and I want you to spread your legs a bit. Then I’m going to put my hard, hot dick into your wet, sweet pussy. But first I’d better sheath my dick.” He started to move.
She stopped him. “Don’t. I want to have a baby soon. Do you mind?” She glanced over her shoulder at him.
“Not if you’re sure.”
“I am.”
He kissed her cheek, and then slid down her body and pulled her waist up. When she spread her legs, he positioned his aching cock at her opening and thrust in fast and hard.
* * * *
Her pussy clenched tight around him. His cock jerked in happiness to be inside her pussy walls. Slowly, Hunter moved in and out. His fingers brushed across her clit as his cock went deeper. Soon she matched his strokes and Hunter’s heartbeat raced. Hot blood spread desire to every part of his body.
“That’s right, honey,” he said, encouraging her to move faster with him. Joy soared up his spine.
“You feel so good. I’m tingling,”
Lacey’s whispered words intensified his feelings and his heart hammered in his chest. He gasped for breath as an inner warmth and excitement started to roll over him.
“Hang on, darlin’. We’re going to fly.” His cock pulsated, and then his seed spurted out into her pussy. Her pussy walls rippled around him, draining him dry.
Hunter fell to her side and pulled her close facing him. “You are every dream I’ve had and more.”
Her soft hand caressed the side of his face. “Your love saved me.” She gently kissed his mouth. Then she cuddled against him and closed her eyes.
He rubbed his hand along the curve of her back. Nothing would ever be more important than his unforgettable wife and their future children.
Lacey put her arms around his neck. “You’re thinking too loud.” She rubbed her tantalizing breasts against his chest. “Are you ready for more?”
