Mountain Rough

  Chapter 10: Red

  My mind was spinning with what Sheriff Thompson had told me, but when I felt Mandy’s lips wrap around my cock, all of that faded away. What she lacked in experience, she made up for in heart. She truly did want to give me the same pleasure that I showed her. Her delicious lips were good—possibly even miraculous—but I knew the sweet untouched flesh between her legs would be even better. The good thing was that I didn’t have to rush it. If she was already trying to bargain for another night, I knew she was staying, even if nothing else happened between us before she was asleep in my arms.

  “I think you need a refill.” She reached over and picked up my empty glass. “I wouldn’t mind a glass of wine if you have any left.”

  “Yeah, there’s a few bottles in the kitchen. Help yourself.” I nodded and released my grip on her shoulder.

  She went to the kitchen to explore and I fastened my jeans around my waist. She returned a few minutes later after I heard a cork being removed from a bottle of wine. I hoped she would hold onto the glass, because I really didn’t want to end up with another shard in my foot. She crawled back onto the couch next to me and sipped her wine while we stayed locked in our embrace. It felt really good, especially after what she had done. Our arms didn’t part until our glasses were empty and she went to refill them.

  “Hey, can I use your computer?” She sat down in the chair without waiting for a response. “I don’t really want to go get my laptop right now and there were a couple of classes that hadn’t posted grades yet when I left.”

  “You might not want to use that…” I raised my eyebrows as she hit the button on the monitor. “I’m sorry.”

  I had never turned the computer off. The browser window I had tried to use before I gave up had my father’s filthy smut on full display. It didn’t seem like I could even open a new window without it automatically connecting to some sort of hardcore website. To make things worse, it was so slow that it took forever to even load one of the websites. The one that was open when she turned on the monitor featured dirty old men penetrating young women in every hole imaginable. It wasn’t even a believable age gap. Some of the men were older than my father. She stared at it for a moment and closed it, which showed the next window. It was even worse, showing women having their assholes drilled in every image.

  “Wow, you watch a lot of porn.” She tried to close the whole browser, but it immediately reopened with an advertisement for seniors that loved cock.

  “That’s actually not mine.” I sipped my whiskey and chuckled. “I think my dad discovered the Internet while I was gone and tried to visit every site imaginable. It’s got so many viruses I can’t even use it.”

  “I might be able to help with that.” She tapped a few buttons. “I grew up with a brother who did the same thing. When my mother didn’t punish him after I complained about the porn on the family computer, it was open season.”

  “I considered just setting that one on fire.” I put my glass down in front of me. “It might be a better option than trying to fix it.”

  “I don’t know—let me mess with it for a few minutes.” She opened screens I had never seen before and stared at the screen.

  She seemed engrossed in whatever she was working on, so I let her keep going. She swallowed and seemed uncomfortable a couple of times when bizarre porn popped up, but she seemed to be making progress. After several minutes, she was actually able to get a window to open without it immediately switching to porn. When she finished her glass of wine, I refilled it and put my hands on her shoulders, lightly massaging them. My thumbs pressed into tight, tense muscles, so I kept working on them while she tried to eradicate multiple viruses from the computer.

  “It would be easier to just reformat this and start over, but I think I got rid of the browser hijacker and the malware.” I listened to what she said and nodded, because I really didn’t have any idea what she was saying.

  “I guess I was lucky.” I rolled my thumbs against her neck. “I just came into work, turned on the computer, and started taking calls. At home, my ex-girlfriend usually loaded the websites on the computer. She saved the good stuff so I never had to deal with anything like this.”

  “I assume there are a lot safer options. Most of this stuff is designed to give you a tease and get you to feed it a credit card.” She leaned back against me and sipped her wine.

  I let her keep working and went into the kitchen to start making our dinner. She finally seemed to be pleased with her progress when I got the food on the table. We talked while we ate and then sat outside on my porch until the sun went down. She seemed to love it. It was a mesmerizing sight as the sun disappeared over the side of the mountain. It was nice to share it with someone who didn’t grow up seeing it every day.

  “Okay.” I leaned over and kissed her neck. “I’m ready to take you to the bedroom.”

  “No porn tonight?” She sighed and moved her hand up to caress my face.

  “Nah, I got something a lot better now.” I kissed her as soon as she turned towards me.

  I felt her whole body melt into the kiss. She gave herself to me completely, with no inhibitions. I pulled her out of the chair and the kiss turned more passionate. We started pulling at our clothes with a burning desire to have our skin pressed together in harmony. She was wearing a lot less than me. I wanted her. I didn’t just want her mouth. I wanted to feel my cock penetrating her. I pulled off her shirt and quickly removed her bra. Her breasts were glorious. I started kissing the nipples, moving from one to the other as they got hard against my tongue. I flicked my tongue against each nub while she moaned. My hand moved between her legs and I felt her wetness against my finger.

  “You don’t know how bad I want this.” I pushed my finger inside her. “Are you ready to give yourself to me?”

  “I’m just not ready yet.” She moaned and whispered into my ear. “Can we just enjoy ourselves without that pressure tonight?”

  I could have taken her there. I could have seduced her and made her beg for it. I could have punished her until she was ready to give anything for it to stop. I did want her, but I didn’t want her to regret it. She need more before she would be ready. I scooped her up into my arms and carried her to the bedroom. The second she was flat on the bed, I crawled in beside her and started kissing her lips again. They were like fire fueling the flames of my own desire. I kissed her until my cock was throbbing. She moved her hand down my chest and started stroking my length. I let her keep going until I couldn’t stand it anymore. I rolled her onto her back and turned until our bodies were facing the opposite direction.

  “If I can’t have this tonight,” I pushed my lips against her wetness and licked, “then I’m going to fuck your mouth.”

  I threw a leg over her neck and positioned myself until my dick was against her lips. She slowly parted them and I started to sink into her throat. I leaned forward on her stomach and pulled her legs towards me, pushing my tongue into her wetness. I slowly moved my tongue along her labia before teasing her clitoris, and then I returned to kissing her cherry. My cock suffocated her and I started driving my length into her throat while I pleasured her. She moaned when she felt my tongue against her clitoris again and it seemed like she was fine with having her mouth fucked if she got to feel the pleasure unfold.

  “This is what your pussy is going to feel when you give it to me.” I moved my hips until my glans was against her lips and then let it slowly sink into her throat.

  She moaned and I started to pick up the pace, taking long thrusts that took me to her lips and then deep into her throat. She massaged my shaft and licked my glans each time I repeated the motion. I kept my hips moving while I circled her clitoris with my tongue. I used a finger to stimulate the entrance of her pussy, slowly penetrating her, but not enough to break her hymen. I wanted to save that for my dick. Our bodies continued to move against each other and I could feel sweat forming as our bodies felt the heat of our passion. I loved the way she tasted, and I crav
ed the reaction her body had to my tongue, but it was hard to focus with her hungry mouth devouring every inch of my cock.

  “Just imagine me going deep.” I gave her a hard thrust. “Destroying your pussy while you scream for more.”

  I felt her body reacting to my words and the constant stimulation. She might not taste the same pleasure she had when I had her against my lips the first time, but each moment pulled us closer to our mutual climax. The pressure was building in my balls and I knew I was about to unload in her throat. I had learned how she reacted when she was close and the shift of her hips and the grind against my tongue was a clear indicator. I kept my tongue moving against the hard knot her clitoris had become, feeling her reaching the point of no return. I pushed a finger into her pussy and let it rest against her hymen when she really started to moan.

  “Cum for me, Mandy.” I licked her clitoris a little faster. “Show me how bad you want it.”

  Her body started to go off like a rocket. Her hips bucked and when I felt the first convulsion of her orgasm, her pussy started to spasm. Feeling it against my finger and imaging it on my cock was enough to send me spiraling towards satisfaction. I pumped my cock into her throat and then started to erupt. From that angle, she had no choice but to swallow it. He throat vibrated against my dick as she took my seed, which caused me to cum harder. She had the same glorious reaction, moaning with her lust boiling against my tongue. I siphoned the last of her pleasure from her body while she devoured my cock. When we were both spent, I slowly pulled my cock to her lips, let her lick the last drops off the tip and then rolled to the side.

  “I shouldn’t have enjoyed that as much as I did.” She let out a long sigh. “The things you do to me shouldn’t turn me on so much—I should feel degraded.”

  “You’re just living in the world you know.” I turned on the bed and kissed her stomach. “You’ve never seen the real world—the magic of two people that give themselves completely with no regard for themselves.”

  “I wish it didn’t scare me so much.” She smiled when I circled her belly button.

  “Give me one more day.” I moved up to her neck and kissed with with an unbridled ferocity. “I’ll make you beg for it.”

  “You’ve made me beg for a lot.” She moaned and wrapped her hands around my head while I continued kissing her neck.

  “You loved it.” I chuckled as I broke my seal with her neck and left a trail of saliva behind.

  “Yeah—that’s what scares me so much.” She snuggled against my chest.

  I LET CHARLIE KNOW that work was suspended until I could get the issue with the permits resolved. He was disappointed, but he understood. I hoped it wouldn’t be a long process, because every day that we lost was a day closer to winter without the progress I needed to get the resort ready. There was another clock that was ticking faster—my time with Mandy. I only had one more day, but I hoped I could convince her to sleep in my bed for another night when it was done. Before I could get to that point, I needed to go to town. I got dressed after breakfast and a shower, watching as she slid some clothes on her beautiful form.

  “Can I go into town with you? I’ll be bored up here on my own.” She adjusted her jeans and turned towards me.

  “Yeah, I suppose that’s true.” I nodded and sighed. “What will you do with yourself if you don’t have me to entertain you?”

  “Well, I’d swim in the pool—if there was a pool.” She grinned and stepped closer to me, moving her lips to mine.

  “Yeah, I guess you can go.” I nodded and kissed her.

  It was a passionate kiss that lasted for several minutes before our lips were parted. I loved the way they felt when they were pressed against mine. I loved crushing them and feeling that slight bit of discomfort before she finally succumbed to the passion. Our tongues moved in unison once it finally came.

  When the kiss was done, we walked down to my truck and started driving down the mountain. She had a wonder in her eyes when she took in the sights. I hadn’t felt that way in a long time, although it was nice to see Blue Ridge again after being away for so long. I pulled my truck up next to Town Hall and opened her door once we were parked. She took my hand and let me help her down.

  “Hopefully this will be quick.” I started walking and she caught up with me, taking my hands in hers.

  “Yeah, I’m ready to have more fun.” She squeezed my hand as we took the steps and opened the front door.

  Town Hall was mostly empty. I looked at the the signs until I saw the desk for permits. We walked up to it and there was nobody tending to it. There wasn’t even a bell to summon anyone. I locked eyes with one of the workers, but they scurried off before I could say anything. I started to get annoyed, wondering if there was anyone actually working that desk. After several minutes, I decided to start walking around while Mandy remained behind. It definitely didn’t seem like a hub of activity. A couple of other people came in, but the services they needed seemed to be manned. I finally gave up searching and returned to the permit desk, where I saw Mandy speaking with someone.

  “Ah, finally. There is someone here.” I walked up quickly and leaned against the desk.

  “Yep.” Mandy turned towards me and smiled. “Ms. Grant was just filling me in on the process. There are some forms to fill out and they’ll email you a response once they are reviewed.”

  “How long does that take?” I stared at a clipboard that was put in front of me.

  “It depends.” Ms. Grant shrugged. “If they’re simple, you’ll hear something in a couple of days. If they require further review, it could be a couple of weeks.”

  “I don’t have a couple of days! I definitely don’t have a couple of weeks!” I felt my anger rising.

  “Hold on.” Mandy put her hand on my arms. “She’s just doing her job. Let’s fill out the forms and start the process before we start filing complaints.”

  “Yes, please do.” Ms. Grant’s expression soured and she narrowed her eyes at me.

  “Okay, I’m sorry.” I gathered the clipboard and walked over to a line of chairs.

  It was pretty basic information, but I needed to fill out a half dozen forms to repair the pool, fix up the cabins, and do renovations on some of the other various areas. I even had a to fill out a form to fix the fence that surrounded the resort. I tried to be patient, filling out the same spot on multiple forms at once. I hated bureaucracy. I dealt with it a lot in the city and coming back to Blue Ridge was supposed to be an escape from that kind of shit. It seemed that the small town I grew up in had started to embrace the rest of the world.

  “Okay, they need an email address.” Mandy pointed to the bottom of the form.

  “Yeah.” I nodded and tilted my head. “I had one at school and I had one for work, but that’s about it.”

  “I’ll put my email on here for now. We’ll get one set up for you when we get back to the cabin.” She smiled and scribbled her email address on the bottom of the form.

  I was happy when we finished up and happier when we were leaving the town behind. We drove back to the resort and spent some time kissing in the truck before we finally made our way back into my cabin. She immediately went to the computer and turned it on. It seemed that the repairs she did had helped, because she was able to load websites without the constant array of porn. She sent up an email address for me and made me write down the password.

  “Check your email real quick.” I pointed to the screen. “Let’s see if we have a answer.”

  “I’m sure it is a little too soon.” She opened her email and confirmed there was nothing there from Town Hall.

  “I guess it was just wishful thinking.” I shrugged and put my hands on her shoulders.

  “Okay, let’s set up your email in Outlook so you can just click a button and check it.” She clicked an icon I was familiar with from my office job.

  “That will help.” I started massaging her shoulders.

  “Oh wait.” She tilted her head towards the screen. “There’s a
lready an email address set up.”

  “Probably my dad’s email.” I shrugged and kept massaging.

  “Yeah, but look at this.” She pointed to the screen and started scrolling.

  “What the fuck is that?” I glared at the screen and watched as she scrolled for what felt like an eternity.

  “These are all applications for permits.” She clicked several emails. “These things go back several years—they’ve all been denied.”

  My mouth fell open and a sudden clarity engulfed me. My father had permits going back to the point when the Blue Ridge incorporated the mountain. Based on what I saw, it appeared that he had applied for permits every week, yet he got the same response. I started to feel my stomach tighten up as I saw her scroll back towards the top. I had assumed he just let the resort go downhill on his own, but based on what I saw, it looked like there was something bigger at play that I didn’t quite understand.

  “Look.” She opened an email. “It looks like he was talking to a lawyer, too. He was going to challenge the incorporation.”

  “Could he do that?” I read through the email.

  “They seemed to think he had a case.” She nodded. “He thought the Remingtons were using the incorporation to help their cabin rental business and blocking everything he tried to do.”

  “Wait a second—let me see that email again.” I pointed at the screen. “It says he was going to meet them, and he mentioned he had more to discuss than the incorporation—a family matter?”

  “There’s nothing after that.” She left the email on the screen as we read it.

  “Yeah.” I nodded. “Because that meeting was supposed to take place the day after he died.”

  “How did your father pass away?” She tilted her head and looked at me with concern.
