Feels Like the First Time Page 8

by Ciana Stone


  Clint’s arms circled her, holding her tight despite the heat, his lips gently pressing against her forehead. For several minutes neither of them moved.

  “Remember the first time?” he whispered.

  She nodded and pulled back to look at him.

  “It feels like the first time every time I love you, Lil.”

  Lily sat up, slinging her hair back over her shoulders. Clint looked up at her, his hands moving to trace along the undersides of her breasts. “I took care of Johnny B, Clint.”

  His face took on a worried look. “Took care of—Lil, tell me you didn’t set him on fire.”

  “No,” she laughed. “It was a miracle, Clint. I went to the farm and found an old box of coins in the root cellar. You know, my dad always collected them.”

  “Yes, I remember. He always used to say this nickel or this quarter is going to make us rich one day.”

  “He was right.”

  “Seriously?”

  “Yes. I took the coins to a dealer and there was a 1913 Liberty Head V Nickel.”

  “Which means?”

  “It was worth over three million dollars.”

  “You’re shitting me.”

  “God’s honest truth.” She crossed her heart. “I paid off Johnny B and got a lawyer to arrange a quick divorce in Vegas.”

  “Eddie agreed to that?”

  “A half a million dollars was all the incentive he needed. I put the farm up for sale.”

  “And?”

  “And I’d like to invest here in your ranch. If you’ll let me.”

  “Hmm, well, I don’t know. We might have a problem there.”

  “Oh.” She felt her hopes start to crash.

  “Yeah, see, I was thinking maybe instead of being an investor, you could be a partner.”

  “As in Marsh and Ridenger?”

  “No, more like Mrs. Marsh.”

  Happiness bubbled up like sparkling light inside her. “And you don’t think me being Mrs. Marsh would be a bigger problem?”

  “Oh yeah, much more.”

  “More?” She ran her hands over the swell of his chest and down his abdomen to the point their bodies met. The tip of his penis peeked from beneath her, swelling to full erection before she even touched it.

  “A whole lot more.”

  “Well, then I guess we’re going to have to work on resolving that, aren’t we?”

  His response was to pull her down to him. Just before their lips met, he smiled. “Oh yeah, we’re gonna work real hard on it.”

  “Yeah?” She grinned, enjoying the easy banter.

  “Yep. I’ve got you now, Lil, and I’m not ever letting go. I don’t give a hoot about your money. Spend it, stick it away, save it for our kids. I don’t care. Just promise me that you’ll never leave me. That you’ll say I do and mean it.”

  “I do, Clint. Every moment of every day. I do.”

  “Welcome home, honey.”

  She met his kiss, feeling more than passion. Her dad had been right. His coins had made her rich. They’d brought her home.
