by Parker, Ali
She looked at me with wide eyes, giving me the impression that she didn’t see herself as the marrying kind just yet. And at only twenty-one years old, I didn’t blame her. She looked at her cowboy boots as they kicked up the dust as we walked along, as though she was deep in thought.
“I know brother, I know. But I also know how women can be. You don’t hear the things I hear in the women’s bathroom at the bar, or at the salon. Hell—even at the grocery store. Women don’t know that I’m nearby and overhear them say they want to snare one of them Dawson boys because that ranch will always produce money, and then they giggle about it. Predators, all of them. They have no interest in real love. They only have an interest in turning this ranch into their own personal bank to go shopping and run us dry. They will take you for your money. Hell, if you don’t sign a prenup, they can even take half the ranch if they get a divorce. You boys don’t think about all of that because you don’t think with your head. You think it’s all fun and games until you find out that one of these girls is pregnant. That’s all I’m saying.”
“Well, I ain’t blind to women like that. I know they’re out there. I’ve run into a few myself. But I assure you that not all women are like that. Don’t you worry, your brothers will only get involved in that way with the right women, not these predators as you call them.”
She cocked her head to the side as though she did not believe me. Then we both started laughing. A few minutes later, we arrived at the crop line.
“Where did you spray?” she asked.
“All along this line right here,” I said.
“These? Why these don’t look sick at all?”
“You are right. They look remarkably better. Hold on a second, and I’ll show you. I took photos of these yesterday.” I pulled my phone from my pocket and begin to scroll through the photos that I took of the crops. “This is unbelievable. See all these brown spots, they are practically gone now.”
“It’s working? Holy crap. I can’t believe it,” she said.
“I need a key to the research lab and look at the crops that we were working on to know for sure. Those have been under the chemical spray longer than these. I got to get going,” I turned and started jogging back toward the house.
“Right now? Right this second?” Abi said behind me, incredulous. But I just waved my hand in the air letting her know I was gone.
I ran into the house and grabbed my keys as I called Madison on my phone.
“Hello?”
“Madison, it’s me, Tanner. I need to get into the research lab right now.”
“Right now? It’s Saturday Tanner. It’s closed.”
“Yeah, but you have the keys don’t you? Don’t you have a key to the main door of the building? It’s important.”
“Yes, I do.”
“Great, I will meet you there in 10 minutes.”
“Ten minutes? But Tanner—”
I hung up the phone before she could protest any longer. I ran out onto the porch and down to my truck, then headed to the college. This was a good breakthrough. I was beyond excited. It was one thing to see results in the lab, but another to see it on living plants out in the field. This could really work. But how? There was something going on here that we did not understand. But that was usually how science went, answers came with the process.
Pulling up to the college, I parked and jumped out. There were a few students milling about, but not very many. I walked up to the building, it was locked. I walked back and forth in front of the door, waiting for Madison to show up.
About another ten minutes later, her car pulled into the parking lot. I ran out to her just as she opened the door and stepped out. I stopped in my tracks. Was this Madison?
Her hair looked a little different, but somewhat the same. But she was wearing a see-through dress that went down to just a bit above her knees. Underneath I could see a red bikini top and swim shorts. I grew hard instantly and lost all train of thought as I looked at her. Damn she was hot. She was practically naked standing there in front of me.
“Tanner, what the hell is going on? I was at the pool with my friend. I didn’t even have time to go home and change. You scared me on the phone,” she said, putting her hands on her hips.
“I can see that,” I said, looking her up and down. “Your hair, it’s different.”
She ran her hand through her hair. She flushed pink just a little bit. “Yes, my friend did it.”
“It looks good. It looks really good. You look good,” I said.
“What is going on here? What is this all about? Did you bring me down here just to tell me my hair looks good?”
“No. It’s the crops on my ranch. They are better, Madison. Remarkably better. Look,” I said, showing her the photos I took, before and after. Her blue eyes opened wide.
“Tanner, this is incredible. I almost don’t believe it,”
“I know. That is why we need to get into the lab to see the specimens we did the experiments on. Are they worse or better? Are they dead? I need to see them.”
“Yes, of course. I understand. Come on.”
She unlocked the door to the building, then locked it behind us. We walked down the hall to the lab where she unlocked that door as well. We both ran toward the counter where we had the latest corn crop experiment.
“Unbelievable,” she said, looking at them.
“They are alive. They look healthy. I think this is it, Madison. You’ve figured it out.”
“We both have figured it out,” she said, turning to look at me. We were silent for a second. Then we both hooted and hollered.
“Woohoo!” I said, throwing my straw cowboy hat in the air.
She jumped up and down screaming and then jumped into my arms. I picked her up and swirled her around. We were so damn happy. “We did it!” I shouted. “We fucking did it!”
“Yes,” she said, with a big smile. I set her down on her feet. But I didn’t take my arms off her. I held her close against my chest, and it was then that I realized she was practically naked. Her breasts were pressed against my chest. My hands were on her bare back and I could feel her skin through the mesh cover up she wore. She was warm. She smelled good.
The smile fell from her face as she looked at me. “Tanner—”
“Madison—”
I couldn’t help myself any longer. I leaned down over her and pressed my lips against hers. To my surprise she didn’t pull her lips away from mine. She kissed me back. Her lips felt soft. She tasted good. Her mouth opened slightly allowing me to explore her with my tongue. She let out a soft moan and a whimper. I grew hard again and I could feel her body rubbing against my hard cock. I moaned.
“I shouldn’t—” she whispered between kisses, but she still didn’t stop. Instead she moved her hand from my neck into my hair.
“I know,” I whispered back. But neither of us stopped. I couldn’t. I was gone. My body was responding to something it had ached for, for a long time now. I wanted Madison. She was in a bikini in front of me and I could not keep my hands off of her. I allowed my hands to move further down her back until I was cupping her bottom. She let out a little squeal as I did so, but she didn’t stop. Her left hand moved down from my shoulder over my chest as though she was feeling my body. I liked it. I wanted her to like what she felt. I wanted her to enjoy touching me. I wanted to please her, and boy was I about to do just that.
Picking her up, I propped her onto the counter. She sat on top of it, moaning while I kissed her. I thought she was going to protest, but she didn’t. I only became more aroused at this. The game was on.

Madison
I couldn’t believe this was happening, but I couldn’t stop it. I had been thinking about Tanner in this way for a long time, and I was powerless to stop my body from responding to him. As soon as he kissed me, I melted against him.
I had been at the pool with Jenna when I got his call. He seemed so frantic and so short over the phone that I didn’t have time to go get dr
essed, and just showed up in what I was wearing. But as soon as he kissed me, I felt as if I was naked. Pressed against him, my body wasn’t going to let me stop it. The fact was, I didn’t want him to stop. He was such a great kisser, soft and slow with his movement, hungry with the way he licked at me.
Strong hands picked me up, catching me off guard as he lifted me up. He set me down on top of the counter, and I instinctively parted my knees and he placed his hips between my thighs.
His kisses grew greedy, and faster, as he kissed down my neck. My blood pulsed through my veins, leaving me a little dizzy.
I moaned softly, feeling naughty and ready for anything. My nipples budded tightly under my bikini top and wetness pooled between my thighs.
“Take this off,” he whispered roughly before grabbing my cover up and tugging it up my body. I didn’t protest. I wanted everything he was promising to give without even saying a word.
“Okay,” I said breathlessly, as I pulled it up with his help and over my head. He threw it on the floor.
“Damn, Madison. You’re beautiful, girl,” he said, as he glanced down to my breasts.
I felt so exposed, and yet I couldn’t help but want to show him all of me – from any angle he wanted. Tanner’s lips found mine once more, and his big strong hands cupped my breasts.
“Mmm,” I moaned as his hands massaged and moved across my hard nipples. He worked my bikini top up over my breasts and ran this thumb over my sensitive flesh. I gasped and pressed forward, wanting to feel more of his warmth.
“Fuck me. You have no idea, do you?” He groaned and shifted his head down. His mouth found my nipple, kissing it, sucking on it. Heat radiated through my stomach and danced in my core. My body ached for penetration, but I knew it was part need and part fantasy.
I moved my hands into his brown hair and held onto him. I was in a fog of ecstasy and I could think of nothing else than the lust that I had for this Texas cowboy. I wanted him, badly.
Moving one hand, I pulled it from his hair, and instead felt my way down his back and over his shoulders. I could feel every hard muscle rippling underneath his shirt. I yanked on it, pulling his shirt up.
“Let me see you,” I whispered before licking at my lips.
“Yes ma’am,” he said, as he stood up and pulled the shirt off and tossed it aside. The man belonged on the cover of a playgirl magazine. In the very center. Where the action happened.
I ran my hands down his strong chest and ripped abs. His tanned skin felt soft under my fingers, which surprised me. The Texas heat was nothing to mess with.
The sound of his zipper fanned the fire in my center as worked himself out of his pants. His gaze stayed locked on mine, lust filling his hazel eyes. My breasts were heaving up and down as my breath grew heavier. He offered me a cocky smile before pushing his boxers down to his knees.
His thick cock was long and hard as a rock. I swallowed hard looking at it. There was no way in hell that thing was fitting inside of me, though I sure as hell wanted to try out my theory.
“I want you, Tanner,” I whispered, not ready for the truth that leaked from my lips.
“Oh baby, I’ve been wanting you so damn bad,” he said and glanced down at his cock, “as you can tell.”
We shared a short laugh before I reached for him, wrapping my fingers around his erection and tugging a little. No more playing shy. I had what I wanted within my grasp. I wasn’t letting go.
He reached out and caressed the inside of my thigh where my shorts opened a tad. A whimper from me, and he had three of his fingers under the thin fabric of my bikini bottoms.
I stroked his cock as one long finger ran down my slit and pressed against my entrance.
“Tell me you want me inside of you.” He glanced up, his eyes glossy, voice thick with need.
“You know I do.” I rolled my hips forward, taking a little of his fingers into my wet heat.
“Such a good girl.” He leaned forward and kissed me hard as his finger pressed deep inside of me. The smell of sex filled the air around us, and I breathed in deeply. So good.
“Oh God,” I said as he licked at my mouth and fucked me harder and faster, adding in another finger a moment later.
His cock swelled in my hand as he trust forward, the precum from his tip coating my palm and making a wet mess. It was his turn to moan.
A deep growl came out of him as he pressed his forehead against mine. “Tighter, baby. Squeeze my dick tight.”
“Hell, yeah.” I clamped down and tugged on the fat head of his cock as he bucked against me. The heat building up in the center of my stomach was edging toward and explosion. White hot passion raced through me, covering my skin in chill bumps.
“I’m going to come Tanner. I’m going to—” I couldn’t finish my sentence.
“Come for me.” He moaned and pressed his thumb to my clit, fucking me hard and fast.
His words were all I needed to bring me to orgasm. I exploded into tiny convulsions as I released. My body trembled against him. I bit down on his shoulder. My body rocked with tremors.
“Mmm Madison, I can’t take it anymore. I have to be inside you—”
“Do it. I want you inside me,” I said breathlessly, still in the midst of my orgasm.
He grabbed the waistline of my swim shorts and bikini, then swiftly pulled them off me as I placed my hands on his shoulders to help him lift my hips from the counter for a second to slip them off before he set me back down on the counter.
“Condom.” He turned and reached for his jeans as his muscles twitched here and there.
Warmth surrounded me as I came down from the delicious high of his hands on me, in me. “Hurry. I want more.”
His smile was wicked as he stood back up, wrapped a condom around his thick rod and pulled me close. “Needy little thing, aren’t you?”
“For you? Yes.” I let out a long moan as he grabbed his cock and guided the tip into my sweetly dripping center. He looked down and watched himself enter me.
His thickness felt so damn good. We shared a long moan as he pushed deeper inside of me, my body opening up to accommodate him better.
“Damn you feel so good. You’re tight and warm,” he moaned. “So wet.”
Opening my thighs wider, I allowed him to get closer as I lifted my knees against his waist. He put his hands around my back and pulled me to him. Entering me completely, he settled deep inside of me.
“Wet for you,” I moaned again and again as he started to work me with slow, deep thrusts. The sex turned hungry a moment later after we settled into a deep, hard rhythm.
My body purred as he drove himself into me. His mouth was soft and wet, the kisses along my neck so damn good.
“I like the way your pussy pulls at me,” he whispered and nipped at my neck. “Wrap your legs around my waist and take what you need from me.”
His words brought me to the brink again. I was still sensitive from my first orgasm and I was close to releasing again.
“I’m close. I’m so close,” I managed to whisper.
“I love listening to you come,” he whispered, as he moved his hand and placed his thumb on my clit. I shouted out in ecstasy. He moved his hips in a swaying motion, dipping his cock in and out of me faster and faster.
“Don’t stop, please,” I begged him.
“I’m close, Madison. Fuck, I’m close,” he whispered.
I exploded into my release, pressing my face against his shoulder, crying out as my body tremored into orgasm.
Tanner was groaning louder and louder. I could tell that he was close. His body tensed up and he threw his head back. Then he groaned with a wild sound. I felt his hot sticky juices flow into me. He slowed down his movements, but still slid in and out of me.
“Fuck. Oh fuck,” he moaned.
He placed his head on my shoulder and kissed my neck lightly. We stayed locked together like this for a few moments. My entire body was tingling with delight. I felt so good, like something I could not explain.
We didn’t move. Neither of us said anything for a few minutes. After a few more moments I knew that I had to come to my senses.
Pulling my head away from him, he slid his cock out of me. I looked at him and smiled.
Even still, I was rapidly coming to my senses. I was not the girl to do this kind of thing in the lab, especially with a wild Dawson brother.
I pushed him away a bit so I could get off the counter. I pulled my bikini top back down over my breasts, and quickly picked up my shorts from the floor and pulled them on.
“Getting dressed already? You’re not even giving me a chance for another round,” Tanner said.
“Yes, I have to get going.”
“What’s going on?” he asked as he pulled up his boxers then his jeans.
“Look Tanner, this can’t be anything more than what it is. It was just sex. A one-time thing. We both got carried away with the excitement of our discovery. But this isn’t a thing, between you and I. It was just sex. I have to go. Get dressed because I need to lock up.”
“Oh, come on, Madison. You know that it’s more than just that. Why are you fighting this?”
“I am not fighting anything.”
“Let me take you to dinner. Let’s go on a proper date. You will see that I am interested in more than just sex with you.”
“I can’t do that. I already told you I don’t want to date. It’s not you personally, I just don’t want to date right now. Can we just drop this? Here’s your shirt,” I said, tossing his shirt at him and pulling on my cover up.
He stayed quiet as he looked at me. He shook his head as though he couldn’t believe what he was hearing. But I wasn’t going to stay there and explain my decision to him.
“Suit yourself, Madison.”
“I will see you on Monday. I’m excited to continue to work on this and to see what’s going on. There’s still a lot more to do. We’ll figure it out. But we don’t need to revisit what we did here today. Let’s just forget it ever happened,” I said, grabbing my bag and my keys.
