“Yes, sorry. I was supposed to move into this bunkhouse tonight I thought. Number 15.”
“So you’re the new trainer Jake, huh?”
He nodded, not sure who she was and wishing that he knew as much about her. “Well come on in.”
“I didn’t realize I would be sharing it.”
“You’re not. You were late so Betsy was thinking you weren’t coming and I decided to stay the night instead of driving all night back to Ranson. We have some that get the job and never show up.”
“Oh, well is there somewhere else I can stay then? I don’t want to bother you. It looks like you are already in bed.”
“No they are all full. Can we maybe just share tonight? I will be out of here in the morning and I really don’t want to drive tonight.”
He nodded his head. He wouldn’t have kicked her out anyways. No man in their right mind would have. Jake looked over at the small bed in the corner, rustled with her warm body and he groaned inwardly. “Is there a bathroom in here?”
She pointed towards the unnoticed door in the back. “Help yourself. I am going to go back to sleep, so just squeeze in when you are ready.”
Chapter 2
Bella was just as attracted to the man and for once, she wished she trained on-site with the rest of them. Her body trembled as she waited for him to come out of the bathroom, but then she heard the small shower turn on and she drifted off before he came out.
Jake looked at her for some time, his body still steaming from the hot water. He had dressed again, but there were no pajamas in his things. He never slept in much of anything and was certainly not expecting to spend the night with a beautiful stranger.
He was surprised that she didn’t seem as bothered to share a bed with him, like she wasn’t even attracted to him or something. Why didn’t she feel the pull that he did? It only seemed right. Looking down at his jeans, there was no way he would be able to sleep in them so he decided on just wearing his boxers would be enough. Even then it felt like too much clothing and he wished he could slide the rest of it off.
Moving to the bed slowly, he took in the curves she offered, her back to him. Bella was pushed against the wall, but there still didn’t seem to be much room for his large body. The bed itself didn’t look so big to begin with, without her in it. His eyes went to her round ass and groaned inwardly. Fuck she was fine.
Jake lay up in the bed next to her, trying not to touch her, but she moved towards him instinctively, taking in his body heat. He groaned at the touch of her soft ass against him, wishing that he hadn’t just broke up with his girlfriend, wishing he could do more but lie there wanting her. It was almost impossible, but he finally fell asleep, wondering about the woman next to him.
****
Bella woke up early and for a moment, she forgot where she was.
All she could feel was the warm heat against her and her mind went to Carlos. She didn’t know why he was there, but that was where her mind went. To her husband and her body seemed already responsive to the idea. Pushing her ass back against him, she heard him moan and her insides dampened with the sound.
She moved to take her shorts off, nothing but bareness underneath and when she moved back against him, she felt his hardness nestled against her ass. It seemed bigger than before, bigger than she remembered and Bella figured he was just extra hard. She was extra horny so it made sense. Another groan from behind her as she tried to line him up where he was needed most. Her eyes were still closed and the dark drape on the window left it dark in the room.
“Come on baby, I need you inside of me now.”
There was a surge of pressure and then he was inside of her suddenly. Crying out softly, she felt his hand move around her, pulling her closer as he started to move deeper. Her insides suffocated him, desperately trying to accommodate his wide girth. It was not what she remembered, it was better, felt fuller and she was still trying to cope with the rest of his length steadily pushing in. Only when she felt his hips against her ass, did she know that it was finally in. Gasping and panting, Bella squeezed him as the length throbbed inside of her.
She had never felt so full in her life and Bella moved her hand down to play with her quim, trying to get her mind off of the painful stretching feeling inside. Her fingers moved quickly as he pulled out slowly, her insides gripping him as he left her. Slamming back forward, Bella heard a deep groan behind her. It didn’t sound like Carlos and it certainly didn’t feel like him.
Bella looked behind her, seeing the man from the night before, remembering that Carlos wasn’t with her anymore. Stopping Jake though, was not in her mind to do. She was aching with need and it had been far too long for her, to ever stop it from happening. He moved to kiss her, his lips soft, but his tongue so insistent. It was unexpected and it made him sliding into her feel like more. She was lost in the moment, lost in his lustful groans that were trapped in her mouth.
Jake cupped her large breasts, squeezing the tip as she started to meet his short thrust by slamming her ass back to meet him. “Yes, I’m so close. Faster.”
Lifting her leg, he slid in deeper, taking both of their breaths away. She had not been expecting it, thinking she had taken all of him, until another inch crashed against her womb, pressing into some unknown place of pleasure deep inside. Bella started to whimper, her mouth moving away to look at his long meat glistening before it plundered back down inside of her.
Jake moved quicker, feeling her wetness as it shot out of her. She soaked his thighs and the sheet underneath him as he rutted in faster and deeper than before. Biting her shoulder, he slammed in one last time before he too was lost in the moment. In the sweet unexpected moment that made him feel like his head was going to blow off.
He didn’t know what name to say, who to call out to for such bliss.
Instead, he sucked on her neck as he emptied his hot seed inside of her. There was no thought of anything else but her velvety sheath convulsing around him as she continued to moan and mewl next to him. Jake pulled the blanket back to let in some air, his cock still buried deep inside of her. It allowed him full glimpses of her naked bottom, the thick thighs and butt cheeks that he was in between.
“Wow. I wish I could wake up like that every day.”
Bella remembered what she was doing and with whom she was doing it with. She moved away, Jake hissing with the pull out and his cock hitting the cool morning air. He wanted to stay inside of her forever in her warm, wet tightness, but she had other ideas.
She didn’t say anything as she scooted out of the bed from the bottom. Wearing just her white tank top, he admired her curves as she went to the bathroom. Soon there was water running and he looked around the room with a smile on his face. The new job in Texas was looking better every minute.
There was a small purse on the bedside table and he looked in it for a second while she took a shower. It wasn’t for any other reason than he had to know her name. Jake had never been in that kind of position before and it was strange to have done so much and know so little. Finding her driver’s license, he read the name. Bella. It fit and rolled off his tongue well.
Chapter 3
Her hands shook as she turned the hot water on and then the little spigot to turn on the shower. Her body hummed with the moments that were definitely hot, but Bella couldn’t believe she had done it, almost feeling like a betrayal to Carlos. Shaking her head, admonishing herself for feeling that way, she tried to think of something else. It was almost impossible to shake the feeling though and she was left thinking of Jake as she washed off their need. She was soaked and she turned a little hot thinking about it. Bella didn’t think she had ever come like that before.
When she got out of the bathroom, she had a towel wrapped around her and Jake was still lying in bed, his eyes following her as she went to her bag to find something to wear. She wished that she would have thought about it before and brought something with her. It would have stopped him from looking at her like that and stopped her from feel
ing her nipples harden in response.
“Why don’t you come back to bed and keep me warm?”
Bella nodded, moving back to change in the bathroom. Jake’s smile fell and he felt like he should get up and dressed as well. His boxers were still on, so he just pushed his softened cock back in and sat up. The bathroom door opened again, but she still wouldn’t meet his gaze.
“Bella?”
She looked up, her dark eyes filled with something that he wasn’t sure he understood. “Look, I’m sorry about that, but I woke up from a dream or something. I don’t know what I was thinking.”
Jake shook his head. He had just had some of the hottest sex of his life and she was apologizing about it. Bella was also putting her shoes on, back to acting like they had not just made love. He was shocked, used to the girl being doe-eyed and exhausted when he was done. Jake blamed it on the fact that he hadn’t been prepared. He had been ambushed, waking up to a wet quim nudging his cockhead and the woman saying that she wanted it. His first reaction had been to press forward, but now he was left feeling strange.
“It’s no problem, any time, really.” He meant it to, his cock hardening slightly just from the suggestion. There was something in the way that she looked over at him for a minute, but then she turned back around and starting putting her things in the bag.
“Hate to run and all after…that, but I’ve got to load the horses up and get moving.”
“Do you need some help?” Jake was already to his feet and she stopped, her gaze falling to the hardness that was trying to creep out of his boxers.
“No really, thanks though. Nice meeting you Jake.”
***
He watched the door shut kind of in a daze. Jake had heard of hard to get, but Bella was something else entirely. Unavailable came to mind loud and clear. He should know the signs of course. He had lived that way for some time. It made the moments with her seem more precious, but also left him sitting on the side of the bed, her shampoo smell still in the air. He kept asking himself, what had just happened?
Shaking his head, he looked at his pocket watch and realized he still had another hour before he was supposed to go up to the house and get his first instructions. There was no way he could sleep though, so he moved into the small bathroom, inundated with the smell of her. She was driving him crazy and she wasn’t even there. Bella had left behind some shampoo in her rush and Jake used it, just so that he could be reminded of her.
He settled into the room, wishing they had been bunking together. She hadn’t said much, hadn’t shared anything, but her body and a moment of her pleasure. Jake tried to forget her, keeping himself busy when he finally left for the ranch-style house to get some breakfast and his duties for the day.
When he knocked, it was almost immediately opened by a short, rotund woman with dark brown eyes. She introduced herself as Betsy and ushered him in. “Now you will have to get here earlier for breakfast or there won’t be anything left. Big appetites around here, but I will make you some eggs to get you going.”
Jake thanked her and took a seat, introducing himself to the other three men that were sitting around the table. One guy name Trent asked him where he was staying.
When he told them the number, everyone got quiet for a minute.
“I thought Bella was staying in there last night.”
“She was.”
A few eyes went to Betsy, but she was humming like she hadn’t heard a thing. Trent eyed Jake, wanted to ask him more, while Jake felt unease about saying something and decided not to say anything else. He was given a couple of horses that needed to be saddle broken. It was actually not that hard and Jake figured that they were warming him up for something more challenging. When he saw the horses though, he had a feeling that it was a test instead an easement into the job.
Trent walked up to a couple of pens in the back. The first horse that caught his attention was Smudge and he was big, angry and so beautiful. There was no wonder why they wanted him trained, he was a race horse in the making.
“I see I got the crazy one.”
“Oh yeah, that horse should have been called the Devil. A few have tried and if they don’t get him trained soon, they will send him south.”
“What’s south?”
“Bella.”
Jake nodded like he was supposed to understand, not wanting to ask a bunch of question. “So you stayed with her last night?”
“Yes. It was late and she was already in there.”
“What I wouldn’t give for that chance. Everyone around her has tried, but she doesn’t pay us any mind after what happened with her husband.” Jake didn’t hear much else after finding out she was married. He was looking at the horse, watching it move, tuning the young man beside him out.
“She’s Betsy’s daughter, so just be careful what you say around her.”
It just got worse. He had slept with the boss’ daughter who was married, on his first night there. Jake felt like he had fucked up big time and at the same moment, wondered if he would get another chance to do it again.
Chapter 4
Bella still thought about Jake. It was one of those things that each time she closed her eyes, she thought of him and her body ached a little inside. It was the first time in a long time that she had thought about going home for a visit. Usually she just made quarterly visits to pick up horses and to bring the trained ones back for the customers. She called it the three month miracle. The un-trainable went with her to her ranch in the south. But she wanted to make an earlier trip, see if the new trainer was still around.
She couldn’t though. She knew that and Bella tried to forget about him. It was hard, but it was easier to just chalk it up as a hot one night stand. It wasn’t the first one that she’d had, but it was the one that seemed to stick with her the most. Why was he on her mind so much? It just didn’t make sense. Bella was musing, her eyes on the corral in front of her when her phone rang in her pocket. She almost didn’t answer it, but it was her mother Betsy and she needed to see what she wanted.
“Hey mom.”
“Hey hon. Are you busy?”
Bella shrugged to no one. “Just here with Thunder.”
“How is he doing?”
“Better. I really think that something happened to him. That is why he
is so spook-easy.”
“I don’t know. He was a rescue from another horse ranch that wasn’t feeding him. There really is no telling, but the blood lines…”
“Yea I know. He will sell for a lot, but I kind of want to keep him.”
“Have you become attached?” Her voice sounded surprised and that irked Bella in a way.
“No, but I am not sure I can be sure of him, that he won’t throw somebody off of him in the wrong situation. That is not only a liability, but also puts our customers in danger.”
Betsy sighed. “Well keep him down there if you want. That is the second one this year.”
“I turned 6 around from your rescues, but some aren’t meant to do much else then roam around. Thunder will never be able to race. I don’t care where he comes from.”
“Okay. So how is everything else going?”
“Fine. Same old thing around here.”
“Are you getting out?”
“Sometimes.”
“Which means no. You need to…”
“Was there anything else?”
Betsy heard the change in her tone and knew that the conversation was quickly coming to an end. “Yes, I was wondering if you could take one more in.”
“I am full.”
“You just said you wouldn’t be training Thunder.”
“Fine, but I wasn’t planning to come up that way.”
“That’s okay. I was going to send one of the trainers down with him. Show him around if you don’t mind.”
“Why?”
“I think he is going to be around a while and I wanted him to get used to all aspects of the business.”
“Okay ma, well listen just c
all me before you send him down.”
“He’s on his way now. Should be there in an hour or so.”
She groaned into the phone, uncaring how it sounded. It was rude at best. “Thanks for the warning. What if I would have said no?”
“You never do.”
“Love you, gotta go.”
She hung up and stared at the phone. It was just like her mom to overpower her will with a smile on her face. It wouldn’t be so bad if she was there, but on the phone it was even harder to say no. Bella went back towards her house and sighed to herself. It was true that she was another part of the business, but she didn’t like the idea of random trainers being sent to her. The way Betsy was talking, there seemed to be more to it than what originally met the eye. Her mother had something up her sleeve.
***
That something turned out to be Jake. She thought she recognized him when he got out of an old beat up pickup, but she couldn’t believe it. He looked good to her senses and her body remembered him quite well. It was still early morning, so he would have had to drive all night to get there. He didn’t look tired though, he looked, arousing. His dark hair was a little longer and blowing in the wind. Jake had a trimmed beard now and she really liked it, fighting the urge to touch it with her hands as he came closer.
“You are a sight for sore eyes.”
She smiled, not quite sure what to say and trying not to seem too eager to see him, even though her heart fluttered as he stopped in front of her. “Can’t believe Betsy sent you down here.”
“Why?”
Bella shrugged. “You’re just new is all. No big deal, I will help you get the horse off the trailer. It’s just the one, right?”
He nodded. “You never know with Betsy.”
“Your mother is nice.”
“Everyone says that if she cooks for them.”
“She is a damn good cook.”
Bella had heard it before. It was one major thing she missed when she moved out, but she enjoyed her peace more. “So which one is it?”
