I sat a short distance away from the two men to give them their privacy, they were chatting amongst themselves Mr. Wilburn was busy whispering in Mr. Fortes ear. Geoffrey’s eyes never left Patricia’s body, he watched every movement her and her gallant steed made around the ring. She always made riding look so effortless and she had the most beautiful smile when she rode. She was such a beautiful woman, she had curves in all the right places, stunning perfect round breasts, she swears that she got them from doing a sitting trot for twenty minutes everyday while she was a teenager. Her hair was a natural ginger red and seemed to go on forever it was so long, she always wore it a braid when she rode so it was very deceiving just how long it was. Patricia was one of those redheads that was blessed with green eyes, they were like a deep jade and full of emotion. She had the sweetest personality anyone could have but you better run if you crossed her, her wrath was like a fireball from hell. I was convinced that she would be a perfect for the Mr. Geoffrey Fortes in more ways than one.
If Patti got this job I was sure going to miss her I don’t think Mr. Fortes would be interested in sharing her training contract with me. He was the kind of man that didn’t like to share what could potentially be his own.
“Ms. Stredier I’ve seen enough, please hand your mount back to your groom I would like to have a word with you in private,” Geoffrey said as he interrupted my thoughts.
I jumped down off the risers to retrieve Patti’s horse from her, as I took him from her I gave her a good luck nod. This was it, this was the do or die time. “You can do this Patricia; just think of the amazing opportunity you have in front of you.” I was trying to take the edge off her and make a confident statement to build her up. I knew that she wanted to move on without Mason and I thought this was her chance. She smiled at me and walked towards Mr. Fortes.
Chapter four
** Patricia’s Interview**
I got off my training horse handed him to Jenna, walked towards Mr. Fortes and shook his hand. “Good afternoon, Mr. Fortes I am Patricia nice to meet you and thank you for coming all this way to conduct the first interview here.”
“Good day, Patricia, nice to meet you as well. Tell me Patricia is there somewhere we can go to talk in private I do have some questions for you that will take some soul searching on your part. I have a very particular way of handling my employees and I want to make sure you are up to the task.”
I swallowed hard, what kind of interview was this, was Jenna right? Was this going to be about sex too? “Um yes Mr. Fortes we can use the lounge there I’m sure you will find it comfortable. How long do you think we might be, I should ensure that Jenna doesn’t saddle up my next horse too soon?”
“Well, that actually depends on you and how you answer the questions I have for you.”
I took a deep sigh I had a bad feeling about this, but I knew I needed this job to be able to move on from Mason. I mean what kind of questions could they be they probably were career goal oriented questions, and maybe some life ambition questions. Of course, that all it would be I mean he was looking for someone to run his farm and live on the property so he needed to make sure. I let Jenna know not to tack up my next horse yet and I showed Mr. Fortes to the lounge.
It was very comfortable I often came up here to unwind, complete with old barn wood bar, a fireplace made from river rock, a full washroom, floor to ceiling windows faced the indoor, and big overstuffed couches set up the conversation area.
“Would you like anything to drink? We don’t serve alcohol until much later,” I joked “But we have orange juice, water, coffee, and tea.” I finished as I reached to grab myself a water.
Geoffrey was looking out the windows into the riding ring. “Water will be fine please, are you sure no one will come up here for a little while?”
“Yes, Mr. Fortes no one will disturb us at all,” I answered as I turned around to hand him his water. But to my surprise I had spun right into him, he had been standing behind me and I hadn’t noticed. And now I was face to face with him, my breasts were pressing up against his chest, and I could feel his massive bulge in his pants twitching against my waist.
“Good, I don’t like to be disturbed while I’m conducting my interviews.” He took the water out of my hands and drank it down in one smooth gulp.
I hadn’t really taken any time to look at him, I didn’t want too. He seemed like the type that would just be able to break your heart anyway. But being this up close and personal I really didn’t have a choice. He smelled so good and musky, he was making my breath quicken with his body so close to mine. I had to study him, I was trying to figure out what would be the best way to keep whatever this was happening on his part professional between us. But somehow he didn’t seem like the kind of guy that took no for answer.
“You seem nervous Ms. Strieder? Is there a problem with our personal space?” He questioned me as he stared down at me.
I swallowed hard I was certain he had heard me gulp “Well, I have never been interviewed with my potential boss touching my breasts.”
“Ah, I see well let me show you what some of your duties may include. I have already seen how you ride, and I believe you may be a good match for my mounts. But there are some other responsibilities that you must attend to as well.”
“I must attend to, I am assuming you mean barn duties like feeding, cleaning the stables, things like that?” I quizzed him growing a little impatient with him.
“Ha-ha-ha, no I am not talking about stable duties, your position is a manager, trainer, and personal assistant to me. So, before we move on I want to know what your limitations are being a personal assistant.”
“Limitations of being a personal assistant, in what sense exactly? Would I be doing your grocery shopping, laundry, household chores things like that?”
“Let’s sit down Patricia and get comfy on the sofas and let me show you exactly what I mean.”
“Oh, I understand now, you are looking for a manager, trainer, and sex slave because with all your young stock and training horses and breeding you don’t have time for a proper relationship so you figure that if you hire someone that is stupid enough to want to fuck you on the side after all the horses all taken care of it will be overlooked.” I snorted to him. I backed away from the handsome broad-shouldered Mr. Fortes and headed for the door. “I’m sorry Mr. Fortes but I must politely decline your job offer. I will show you to your helicopter.” I finished coldly to him as I looked at the door.
“I love how feisty you are Ms. Strieder, you would be fun to work with and tame.” He replied mischievously.
“I am not yours to tame Mr. Fortes, now if you please I have made my decision.”
“Ok, Ms. Strieder fair enough this job offer isn’t for everyone. It is more suitable for someone who needs a lifestyle change. And the pay isn’t for everyone either, but just to be fair I will leave you my card and the contract have a read through it.” He said as he put his card and contract on the lounge table.
“Oh, one more thing before I leave I should mention the pay is ten grand a month, with a full apartment right on the farm, there is also a shopping account set up for you and your children, all expenses paid for, for you, your horses, and your kids. I will give you twenty-four hours to reconsider.” He said as he kissed me tracing his finger down my neck to the edge of my breast.
That man left this tingling sensation in my body that went from the tip of my head through my breasts which were now engorged and heavy, butterflies in my stomach or maybe it was anxiety I’m not sure since no one ever made this happen to my body with just a soft wet warm kiss on the lips. The sensation continued through to my lady parts which were now tingling, swollen and I could feel the warm wetness in my panties. I stood in disbelief as he left the lounge, did he just say ten grand to ride him and his horses?
Chapter Five
Jenna was up in the lounge in no time. “So, tell me how did it go did you get the job?”
“I turned him down. Jenna, he wants me t
o have sex with him as part of my job, that is just so wrong on so many levels.”
“You said No! He offered you a lifetime opportunity and you said No! Because you will have to sleep with him, are you crazy? This guy would be the best boss you would ever have and you said No because he will pay you to fuck him too? Most bosses in the horse industry want the help to fuck them on the side without any perks.” She yelled at me “Tell me how much was the pay?”
“Ten grand a month, full apartment, all expenses paid for, and a shopping account,” I replied meekly. I was still in shock he had made me horny with one kiss.
“Your so stupid Patricia, I’m going to talk to him before he leaves.” She huffed
Before I could stop her, she was gone. I guess she got to him before he flew away because she managed to get him back up to the lounge and offered to bring in some lunch and drinks, and then offered to go pick up my kids from school. I was sitting reading, well skimming through the contract. He stood in the doorway watching me as I read. My god he was beautiful he held his white cowboy hat in front of his manly part of his jeans, with his wavy dark brown hair and blue eyes like the sky, and his neat and tidy man scruff on his face, rugged for sure, a cowboy for sure, I could probably give him what he wanted and needed. I loved sex and I loved to explore so maybe I should take him up on his offer.
“I’ll leave you two alone, I will be back with your lunch in thirty minutes.” Jenna said staring at me fiercely “Don’t fuck this up” She mouthed to me as she closed the lounge room door.
“Well, Ms. Strieder may I sit with you and explain all this fucked up job offer I have for you.”
“Mr. Fortes” I start.
“Please, call me Geoffrey.”
“Ok, Geoffrey this is the most insane job offer I have ever encountered. I mean, what exactly do I have to let you do to me? There is no mention of sex anywhere throughout the contract at all. It talks about my job duties with the horses and when I’m allowed to train my own horses, and that a tutor will be provided for my children when we are at horse shows. Which by the way sounds really amazing, however then the final paragraph states that you are allowed to use your dressage whip to spank me, if I spank your horses too hard, and spurs, how do you possibly use spurs on someone if they don’t use the spur on a horse correctly? And real bits, like are you kidding me?” I quiz him.
“No, Patricia I am not kidding you when you train a horse you train them with patience and love you never demand always ask first, it is called respect. Horses, well most horses are submissive animals even the boldest stallion will submit with the right touch. So, my thought is if you want to work for me I will give you everything, however, hurt my horses and I will show you what it is like to be put in a submissive position.”
“Hmm, and what if I like being spanked, Mr. Fortes? Let’s just say you do in fact spank me, and I like it and want more?”
“Then you will get more, I will include the spurs and bits and ride you the way you should be ridden.”
The thought of him riding me made me shiver, it sounded fun and a little bit like a bad girl. “Can you show me a little of what you would do to me if I wasn’t doing something right? I do have a jumping bat up here in the lounge it has a flatter surface than the dressage whip, and besides, I use the dressage whips for teaching new movements not spanking horses.”
“So, you're taking the job I am offering?”
“Yes, I am taking the job.”
“Stand up and your supposed to say I am taking your job offer Mr. Fortes Sir.” And with that, I felt the sting on my bottom from the jumping bat.
Oh, I thought this is what I am in for, that one spank left me wet and swollen instantly, and I wanted him to take control of me right there in the lounge.
“Ouch, I mean, Yes I am taking your job offer Mr. Fortes Sir.”
“Good girl Patricia see you do learn quickly.” He said as he gently rubbed where he spanked me, soothing the sting with his warm hand making me tingle in places that I never knew could tingle. With me still standing in front of him, he got up and kissed me goodbye. “I expect to see you at the farm this weekend, you will start on Monday morning, I will send the truck and trailer for you and your horses.”
I hugged him so hard, I didn’t know what else to do. “Thank you, Mr. Fortes Sir, I mean I’m sorry for hugging you, but thank you, I need this job, even if it means I have to do some weird stuff for you.”
Geoffrey laughed, his eyes sparkling. “We all have our reasons for needing a new start in life, happy that we can help each other. I must go, I will see you soon.” He kissed me again this time long and slow, I couldn’t help myself he made me feel so good I returned his kiss and held him close I could feel the bulge in his jeans swelling, well at least we know we turn each other on I thought.
Chapter Six
All Geoffrey could think about for the next week was this fiery redhead girl that gave him attitude during her interview. She was so sexy he thought. She was so captivating and he needed to have her and make her his.
Geoffrey was at the farm bright and early on Saturday morning to move us up to the new farm and my new life. The kids were excited for the move and new life as well. Jenna helped with the loading of the horses
“I thought you were going to send someone to come and move us, Mr. Fortes?”
“Yes, at first I was going to send the trailer and wait for you to arrive but I thought it may be better to get to know you better on the drive up.” He said mischievously.
“Oh, I see well then I suppose we are almost ready then,” I replied loading up the last horse in the trailer.
Jenna was standing in the barn doorway, I could see she was trying hard not to cry. Looking at her I ran to hug her she had been through a lot with me and this goodbye was going to be hard for both of us.
“Oh, Jenna thank you for everything I will call you as soon as we get up there. I sure will miss you.”
“Why is everyone all doom and gloom? It takes no time at all to fly Patricia here in the helicopter for a visit, or even I can send for Jenna to come to visit.”
“That would be great Patti, I could come and visit any time oh I would love that. Well, you guys better get going on your way, there is a huge snow storm headed your guys’ way. Oh, Patti one more thing what about the rest of the training horses you have down here?”
“Mr. Fortes, would it be possible to take my training horses with the owner’s permission, of course, it is guaranteed money and the owners only come by once a month.”
“Hmm, I think that we could arrange that. We could arrange something like during the off season they are boarded here and during training and show season they are up with us, and then once or twice a month we will have a luncheon and presentation on how their “prize show horses” are doing.”
I was so excited that Geoffrey was going to help support my already existing training business that I wrapped my arms around him and kissed him. “Oh, thank you, Geoffrey, you just made my day, I think I might actually love you.” I slapped my hands across my mouth as fast as it came out. Oh, god I didn’t just say that, did I?
He hugged me back and his eyes were so deep I could swim in them for hours, he kissed me back…oh his lips so soft and plump and warm. I loved how he kissed. Could this be happening before we even left the driveway?
Jenna caught our special moment, “Um hey you two, are you two like a couple or like is some kind of chemistry going on? You two make a great couple though whatever might be transpiring between you two.”
“Oh, eh, yeah sorry Jenna, I just couldn’t help myself he makes me happy, but no we aren’t a couple.”
“Yet” Geoffrey interrupted, “we aren’t a couple yet. And it’s a long drive we have time to get to know each other.”
“You do know that I have kids, right most men are scared of kids.” I joked as we started to get into the truck.
Chapter Seven
We waved goodbye to Jenna, Geoffrey made sure she had all the instru
ctions for my training horses that needed to join us at the farm and also gave her a couple of numbers to call when she was ready to come for a visit which I figured would be in a day or two. I let out a big sigh as we pulled out of the driveway with everything that was important in my life packed in the truck and trailer. My new life was about to start and the most eligible bachelor was sitting beside me making me feel like a queen, even though nothing had really happened between us and we didn’t really know each other but he was right we had a long drive together so we wouldn’t be strangers for long. I stared out the window as we sped down the highway listening to Christmas songs and too much of my surprise my kids and Geoffrey were singing along with the tunes. The truck was very cheerful I must say. I stopped staring out the window and looked at him in the most puzzled way possible this man that was so rugged and beautiful but soft in other ways could he really be the one that I could fall in love with? No, I needed to focus on my career ahead of me, but it was hard to do that with the fact this beautiful stranger was so captivating and was winning over my kids by singing cheery Christmas melodies in the truck in the middle of November. He made me smile and brought tears to my eyes, I kissed him on the cheek, “Thank you for everything so far.” I whispered.
