Rekindled: A Billionaire Second Chance Romance

by Ashlee Price

  “It’s our first night off in weeks. Are you sure there isn’t something else you want to do, see?”

  “I’m ready to go to bed Clint.”

  Now he was the one ready to go, standing up and waiting for her. Mia kind of giggled as he pulled her up from the chair. Clint half-dragged her out of the restaurant, pushing her against the truck to kiss her, before she made it inside of the vehicle. His words from dinner played in her ears and Mia realized that it had been far too long. She hadn’t wanted to believe that they could be together, but now she knew that it was what was supposed to happen.

  He got in and started the truck. While he waited for it to warm up, Mia ran her hand up and down his thigh. She heard his whimper when her hand got too close to the hardness that was ever-present in his pants. Mia loved to hear the sound and then the louder groan when she grabbed his length in her hand. “Mia, don’t.”

  Clint moved his hand to hers, while trying to put the truck in park. “Just drive or we will never get home.”

  She moved her hand back to his groin and squeezed to his desperate sound. “Oh that’s right. You said you had a better use of my mouth. Is this one of those times?”

  His dark eyes went to hers and Mia smiled back. “I think it must be.”

  Clint looked down as her fingers undid his jeans, the zipper sound amplified as she pulled it down. He had to look back at the road. All he could focus on was what was through the windshield as he felt the air on his shaft as she pulled him free from his pants. “Mia, not while I am driving. I can’t…”

  “Just pay attention to the road. You will be fine.”

  Mia looked down at the hard length pressed up towards her waiting lips. It was bigger than she remembered, so full of blood that it looked purple. There was salty discharge coming out of the tip that she leaned in and took a taste of with the tip of her tongue. She felt the truck serve a little and she did it again.

  Taking it into her hand, she watched his face as she slowly ran her hand up and down the shaft. He squirmed beneath her and scowled down at her. She ignored him and put him back in her mouth, sucking him in quickly as he groaned louder in the cab. “Mia you have to stop. You have been teasing me for weeks.”

  Ignoring him she took more into her mouth until she felt the cockhead pushing against her throat. She pulled him back out and then slid back down his length as Clint shook underneath her. His reaction spurred her on to take more of him as deep as she could until she felt the vehicle jerk off to the side of the road and come to a stop. His hands went to the back of her head, pressing her down as his hips thrust up. Gagging, she braced her hands on his hips as he shoved himself into her mouth. Her throat and mouth were filled suddenly with his hot spunk, his grip tight on her hair.

  Clint murmured her name, wanting to melt into the seat as his head fell back. He could hear the cars passing by as they sat on the shoulder. Her mouth left him and he was able to breathe again, eyes going open. He looked over at her and she was wiping a small amount that had escaped off the corner of her lips.

  “We are never going to get home at this rate. Why did you stop?”

  His eyes watched her lips and then he finally looked behind them to get back onto the road. He put the truck in drive and flew the next few miles to the apartment. Mia had tried to put him back, but he finished as he got out of the truck. She was the one stalling, moving too slow for his liking. He already had the door unlocked and most of his clothes off by the time she got in. He had waited far too long and as soon as she came through the door, he was kissing her lips and neck, tugging her dress over her head.

  She tried to slow him down, but there was no stopping him. Her hands went up to cover herself, but his hands jerked hers down, not giving her the satisfaction of modesty. Mia was worried about the changes in her body, but all he saw was something to be desired. It was more intimate than before, their one shared night of pleasure, spurred on by one too many drinks.

  “Why do you hide yourself Mia? You are beautiful.”

  It was good to hear, but didn’t change the shyness that she felt in front of him. Clint was so perfect, almost too perfect when she compared herself to him. Every inch of his body was chiseled and hard, straining. She may not have fully believed him, but the look in his eyes was enough for her.

  As she stood in her bra and panties, Clint pulled her towards the bedroom. He had wanted to get in there with her for months, but she had put him off. Now he could not be put off, needing her more than anything else he could imagine. Pushing her towards the bed, she fell and his body moved to cover her curvier form. She sighed as his hardness pressed against her panties.

  Clint couldn’t even be bothered to take anything else off. His need to be in her was paramount and he instead just jerked her underwear to the side. His boxers were yanked down and she felt smooth hardness at her center. Closing her eyes, she waited for the penetration.

  “Look at me Mia.”

  She whimpered as he stilled above her. All she needed was fulfillment, but he wanted something more from her. Her eyes opened, meeting his for just a moment before his cock drilled down into her depths. Clint’s lips silenced her cry, as her insides choked his member. He cursed while she moaned, clinging to him as he pressed slow and deep. Clint didn’t stop till he was fully embraced.

  Mia was overwhelmed with his girth, but she was not given long to adjust before he was pulling out and slamming back into her. It was like before, hard and fast, her mind gone from the first time she came. All she could do to stay grounded was hold onto his neck while his body thrust into her over and over again. When she started to scream, Clint stopped afraid that he had hurt her. “Don’t stop!”

  Her nails dug into his shoulders and back as he looked down at her as if she had lost it. Mia moved one hand between their bodies and rubbed her clit to push herself over the edge that he had left her teetering on. Clint grabbed her hand, pushing it back into the mattress as he ground against her. Mia cried out, her body exploding from his.

  Clint was moving slower, his strokes deeper as his eyes closed to make it last just a few seconds longer. He warned her as his lips moved to hers, his manhood filling her full of her virile seed, hoping to start another baby. He didn’t share his thoughts with her, rolling over onto his back, breathing hard. “That was, perfect.” Mia just murmured against him as he pulled her against his sweaty chest.

  “I forgot how good it felt with you. We really should be more careful though.”

  “Why?”

  “Because we are going to have another baby if we aren’t careful.”

  “Would that be so bad?”

  She smiled with her eyes closed. Mia didn’t see how serious he was. “Let’s get Virgil in diapers before we think about another baby.”

  “I don’t want to wait any longer for our family to grow. We need to make it official.”

  Mia looked over at him. “Official? What do you mean?”

  “I mean, we should get married.”

  “You never asked.”

  “I am now.”

  “This is how you ask?”

  “Yes. I can’t think of any other way.”

  “Okay.”

  He wasn’t sure if he heard her right. “Did you say yes?”

  She nodded and then moaned as his mouth moved over hers, his body pressing her down into the mattress. Mia would have agreed to anything as long as he kept touching her like he was then. It was impossible to deny her cowboy anything, especially not another perfect baby.

  ~THE END~

  Cowboy’s Bride

  Introduction

  Kallie is shocked to get a message from a lawyer in Texas. The father she hasn’t seen in 18 years has died and she must attend the will reading in a couple of days. She travels the thousand miles there and is even more surprised to learn that her father left her a house and a business. Kallie decides to spend some time in the small Texas town, but quickly realizes that not everyone is happy she’s there.

  Then sh
e meets Caspin and she starts to see the hidden gems in the tiny town. Caspin is a businessman as well as a rancher, and Kallie cannot decide which side of him she likes best. Both sides are captivating, but then she finds out that he is a playboy who never sees the same woman twice. She knows that if she lets him touch her she will be lost to a man who will never want her.

  When Kallie is almost run out of the town after she refuses to sell her inherited property, it is Caspin who she calls to save her. Will he be able to not only rescue her, but convince her of his true feelings?

  Chapter 1

  “Kallie, are you sure you don’t want me to go with you?”

  She shook her head that she didn’t. “No mom, it will be fine.”

  “I just don’t like this. I haven’t heard from him in years and now this?”

  This that she referred to was her father’s death. Kallie barely even remembered her father, but now she was being summons across the country for a reading of his will. He was a rich man and had always helped Mary out when she needed it, but it was strange to know that he was gone. Kallie wished that she had gotten to know him better and now the only connection she had was whatever he had left for her. More than money, she wanted photos, something to remember him by or learn more about him.

  “I don’t think it was planned.”

  “No, of course not. It is just a surprise and I am being insensitive. How are you holding up?”

  Kallie shrugged. It was strange that he was gone, but she didn’t have much to miss. “I’m fine. You know I want answers, maybe meet some of his side of the family. Everything happens for a reason, so I should at least see what it is about.”

  “I know, but I hate that you are going by yourself.”

  Kallie didn’t want her mother going. She was too emotional and would be ready to go the next day. It was something that she had to do by herself, work through it herself in some way. “I am going to be fine. It’s just Texas, not another country.”

  “Honey, I’ve been there. They used to say you had to have a passport to go down there. It is a lot different than here in New England.”

  That is what Kallie was hoping for, something different. She needed a change and since leaving college with a few classes shy of graduating, she was looking for what direction her life was supposed to go. Kallie had gone to school for business, but she got cold feet and needed some time off. It seemed like once she graduated, her life path was chosen for good. To get the news was a shock, but she was a realist and she instantly saw it as an opportunity to get out of the area for a while.

  “I know, that is what I am hoping for. I haven’t been out of this area but once and that was on a vacation. I am going to drive down there and see what the will is about, than maybe visit a few relatives I’ve never met. I hear that I still have a grandmother there, a brother.”

  Nothing she said was going to calm her mother’s nerves, so she really didn’t try much harder to do so. She was going to worry, it was in her nature.

  “I am going to be fine. I will call you every night so you can get some sleep. I should be there in a couple of day. The reading is Monday so I will have plenty of time to get there.” She didn’t mention much after that, how long she planned to stay. Kallie still wasn’t sure, but she had no intentions of coming back right away. She just didn’t have the backbone to tell Mary.

  “Just come home Kallie. Don’t get lost out there.”

  It was strange how she said it, prophetic almost, but Kallie ignored her. She didn’t plan to get lost anywhere.

  The next morning she had the car packed and she as ready to set off to a new adventure. That was how she was looking at it, not able to look at it as a goodbye. Kallie had missed the funeral, so it was not really a goodbye. He was already gone, so Kallie had to see it as part of her journey instead.

  She said goodbye to her mom and stepdad. Kallie ignored the look in Mary’s eyes, the one that made her feel guilty in some way, like going to Texas would somehow negate the relationship they already had.

  It wasn’t until she was a hundred miles away that she believed that she was actually going to go. She didn’t have to. She could have just waited for the paperwork from the lawyers, but there was supposed to be a video and it was too much to deny herself.

  Taking her time, it took her three days to get to Texas, stopping at several attractions on the way. Kallie knew she was stalling, never one to be early for anything. She made it just on time for the will reading at the lawyers.

  ***

  Moving out of the elevator, she was met with a small conference room full of people that she had never met before. Trying not to look as nervous as she felt, Kallie smiled and pushed her blonde hair back behind her ears.

  “Ah, Miss Glenn. Thank you for coming. I know that you had quite a ways to travel.”

  Kallie nodded to the short, portly man that she had assumed was the lawyer she had talked to a few days before. They had seemed to be waiting for her and she felt her cheeks reddened as she found a seat open for her. There was no introduction, just her and all the people around her that were family and friends of her father that she hadn’t even met before. There were a couple of people there that looked familiar, having some of the same features as the pictures she had of her father in her mind. She told herself that she would talk to them afterwards, but when the lights went out and the screen came on, Kallie was staring ahead in rapt attention like the rest of them.

  He looked much like she remembered, but older and a little more weathered in his appearance. There were a few moments that it was just him sitting in a chair at his desk. Kallie wasn’t expecting to feel the way that she did. There was something about the sadness in his eyes that made her wish that it was a different way they were seeing each other for the last time.

  There were individual statements to everyone and that was how Kallie learned some of the names. When she heard her name, her eyes went back to the screen and she held her breath to hear the last words she would ever hear from her father again.

  “Kallie. I am sorry that this is how we meet for the last time. I should have been there more, I know that now, but I’m sorry I was not and won’t be able to see you go forth. I know that you have been studying business and I would like to give you some land and a business in Texas. I love you Kallie and I hope that you can find happiness in the west like me and Mary did so long ago. Just know that you are always loved Kallie.”

  Tears came to her eyes and it was less, but more than she had thought it would be. The only thing that she could do was take the offered tissue and listen to the rest of what Mel Glenn had to say in his final words. He was a man of regrets, but he had lived and that was what Kallie wanted to hold on to.

  Then the lights were put back on and most were teary-eyed and squinting to the sudden brightness. As she was leaving, she was given a couple of numbers of relatives that wanted to have lunch when she was feeling up to it. Kallie was also given deeds to her new home and store, though she couldn’t figure out what it was for by the name or the paperwork in her hand. She was exhausted and she told herself that there was no rush.

  Going to a hotel, Kallie tried not to think about the video and her father. It was hard though, when all she wanted to do was get some sleep. The next day was a mystery and Kallie finally went to sleep with the possibilities in her mind.

  Chapter 2

  There was no preparing her for what type of business her father had left her. She had heard that he was in oil and gas, other type of commodities, but never had Kallie heard about his feed stores. It was a small town one no less, but it was a feed store. Kallie didn’t know the first thing about cattle or horses. She knew about crabs and seafood, things that she seen on the coast.

  Pulling up in front of the store, her hybrid felt out of place in the row of trucks and trailers. Getting out, she pulled her hair up with a ponytail and looked at the few men watching her from the docking place where they loaded up huge bags of feed. She found herself staring back for a
minute, young hard bodies flexing as they threw down the feed to the waiting truck beds. Maybe there were some perks to the business, she thought to herself.

  She surveyed the activity and liked the fact that no one seemed to know who she was. Kallie could observe without anyone knowing that she was there to take over. She was enjoying anonymity until an older woman came out of the store. “Well you must be Mel’s daughter Kallie. You look just like him.”

  Kallie was surprised to be called out and she noticed the change in the way a few people looked at her. They must have known that she was taking over. Smiling at the older woman, she put her hand out to shake it. “Yes I am Kallie. Nice to meet you and you are?”

  “Edith. I am the accountant and I do some of the management duties like orders, payroll and a few other things.”

  “Well nice to meet you Edith. I wasn’t sure what kind of business this was when I got the paperwork.”

  “You ever worked in feed before?”

  Kallie shook her head that she hadn’t. “No, can’t say that I have ever been in one before.”

  Edith grabbed her hand and told her they were going to change that. “Do you want me to introduce you today or when you come in Monday for the staff meeting?”

  Kallie hadn’t thought about it and she certainly hadn’t thought about a meeting where she would have to meet them all. What was she supposed to say, Dad died so I am taking over?

  “Let’s wait till Monday for all of that. I just want to get a feel for the place if you don’t mind.”

  “No problem. We heard that you got the store in the will. I am sorry to hear about Mel Miss, he was loved here.”

  She shrugged. “I haven’t seen him in fifteen years and I don’t remember him well, but thank you. I hear good things about him everywhere I go here.”

  Edith was not expecting that for an answer and it made her uncomfortable. Mel had always been good to his children and she wondered why he hadn’t been around for his oldest. It wasn’t her place to say anything, especially with her to be their new boss.
