You're Mine: A Bad Boy Next Door Romance

by Lauren Wood

  Lynn’s mother Kate had dedicated her time to those that needed her the most. She volunteered her services, even though she had a fulltime job running a small deli shop. That shop was destined to go to Lynn, but she found herself rebelling against it and in turn the shop was turned over to those with deep pockets. Kate was the exact opposite of her daughter. Kate was dark haired with a generous height of over 5’10 and 150 pounds. Lynn had taken the traits of her blonde blue eyed father Henry who died just after she was born. This was the type of loss that was crushing her very soul and keeping her from moving forward.

  Helen wasn’t sure that this was the right decision, but she didn’t see any way other than to let others speak for her. “I don’t know where to begin. I guess it all started when I was surprised to learn that Kate had found me a suitable role model. I really don’t know what she was thinking. I work long hours as a lawyer. I hardly have any time for myself let alone a teenage daughter that is dealing with too many issues to count. I want to be there for her for that stability in her life, but she won’t listen. She thinks that she knows everything. All of you at one time thought the same thing growing up. We all did, but if we could go back to our young self, I’m sure that we would tell them to act their age and don’t do something stupid. I only wonder what either one of us would say in response if we had a chance to go back and do it all over again.” Helen could not have children and she was destined to live with that knowledge. It had ruined a few relationships and sent the guy packing after he learned the terrible truth.

  “There’s no reason to pause. You’re saying what is in your heart and that’s all that we can hope for. We bottle all these things up and they fester inside until it’s inevitable that something gives. We’re here for you and we want you to take whatever strength you need from all of us. See this through to the end and don’t anything stop you even the look that you’re getting from Lynn. We know that you’ve struggled and fought the good fight. You may not have heard this enough, but we believe that you have that motherly instinct. Kate would never have selected you to raise her daughter in your absence had she not thought that you had some redeeming qualities. She told me in confidence that you were her life. She thought of you as a sister.” It was nice for Deacon James to get that off his chest and he had been carrying that from the moment that he gave Kate her final words to enter into god’s kingdom.

  “I don’t know if it’s right for me to be up here, but I feel I have no choice. Lynn has been making some very bad mistakes. She’s been drinking, smoking, staying out late and even doing a little bit of weed. I found a baggie and I don’t think that I have to tell you what was in it. She thinks that she’s hiding all of this from me, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. I don’t want to walk around on eggshells around her, but she doesn’t make it very easy for me to reach out.” Helen was on a roll and she saw that she had everybody’s undivided attention. It made her feel good to let it out, but you could see that Lynn was not very happy by this public forum.

  “I’m sure that there are many issues, but let’s get down to the reason why there’s a rift between you today. Tell us what has made this silence almost deafening. You both brought this into my church. Do us the honor of helping you when you’re at your lowest. There are words in the bible for any circumstance and let’s not forget that god made us in his image.” Deacon James was finding that sharing the spotlight was only making him seem bigger than life.

  Lynn was shaking her head and staring intently at Helen. She was doing everything she could not to scream that she better not say another word or there would be hell to pay. “I can’t believe that this thing had come this far that she would feel that it was necessary to say what was on her mind. I can’t possibly believe that she would say anything regarding my purity, but I’ve learned not to underestimate anyone these days. I can’t let her get the final word. If she knows what’s good for her she better not say what I think that she’s going to say.” She looked to Helen and waited for those words to spill from her lips.

  “I wish that there was another way, but I see that I’ve gone as far as I can on my own. Lynn has been playing with fire with boys that are older than she is. I would have thought by now that she would be pregnant, but thankfully that hasn’t happened yet. She doesn’t talk to me and I have to resort to reading her private diary.” Helen heard the shocked exclamations coming from those in the parish. “I know that it’s not right and that I would probably hate my mother if she had ever done anything like that when I was growing up. I knew that she was hurting, but I never knew that she felt that she needed to abuse her body like that. I’ve tried to stress abstinence and to find the man that is going to put those butterflies in her stomach. I can’t be sure how long it’s going to be before she takes things too far. I want her to have a future and not to worry about having her life ruined by one moment of stupidity. Don’t say that any one of you wouldn’t want to go back and change things. I know that all of you hide your own secrets. There are even a few of you that have confessed to me in private that you didn’t want kids. You made a mistake of letting your body do the talking for you. I’m just trying to give her a life. I put my foot down and if need be, I’ll lock her up someplace so that she can’t even begin to think about doing something physical with a man.” Helen didn’t lose her virginity until she was 25. It was after she had already been in college a few years getting her legal degree. It was a moment that was fast and not exactly pleasant. It only lasted a few minutes, but it did leave an indelible mark on your psyche.

  “Young people are under the impression that they need to experience it all. They don’t realize that they have all the time in the world. Love should never be taken for granted and sex should never enter into the equation without the feeling of ever lasting devotion. I know that kids are going to have sex, but sometimes I feel that I need to step in and say something. It might be considered a sin by the words in the good book that stress sex after marriage. I’m a man of the people and I know that these things happen regardless of what each and every one of us could say to the contrary.” Deacon James felt that today was going better than usual. He had found a sermon within the very problem that came forward courtesy of Lynn and Helen. If he could get Lynn to open up, then this would be considered a success.

  Lynn was fuming and felt like she was being put on the spot for something that she didn’t even do. The issue was privacy and the lack of it. She found that she was lacking that inside Helens home. Standing up she placed her hands on the bench in front of her and curled her fingers to indicate that she was not very happy.

  “That is more than enough. The main issue is that she doesn’t trust me to make my own decisions. I’m a big girl and whatever mistakes I make are mine to make. In fact, I’m going to do you one better. If my virginity is so important to all of you, then you may as well be a part of it. I want to get out of this town and I see that the only way to do that is to give my virginity to any man that’s willing to pay the price. This tight little body can be all yours and all you have to do is to be the highest bidder.” She saw the stunned expressions on their faces. “I have to say that this was not exactly what I was expecting. I didn’t mean to say the words, but they came across my lips. Maybe it’s the right thing to do and I could kill two birds with one stone.

  Chapter 2

  Everybody was in total disbelief that this girl could say something like this in front of everyone. The women were appalled, but there were several married men that were now thinking that such a young piece of ass would just be the icing on the cake to a 40 year itch. Some were calculating what they had in their accounts and if they could get away with taking the money without their significant other finding out about it. There was even one that was licking his lips and he had already envisioned her naked spread out with handcuffs on and a ball gag in her mouth.

  “I can’t believe that you would say something like that. This is not the girl that I remember when I came to see you wearing pigtail
s with your mother teaching you to bake in the kitchen. I know that we all have to grow up, but maybe you need to do a little bit more growing up than most. Stop blaming others for your problems and all you want is for everyone to be as miserable as you are. I don’t know how to deal with you and I think I’m going to give you enough rope to hang yourself with.” Helen was not happy and had reached a breaking moment.

  “I’m going to have to ask the both of you to leave immediately. This is not the place for this subject matter. Take this kind of talk outside and away from god’s ears.” Deacon James had felt that things were progressing nicely and then the bottom dropped out with Lynn blurting out about giving her virginity to the highest bidder.

  “I’m aghast that she would say such a thing. She’s only doing it to hurt me. I think that it might be time that I get some distance. I have vacation and I’m going to take a cruise someplace tropical. I’m through playing with kid gloves. In fact, I’m through playing at all and I’m washing my hands of the whole ordeal.” Helen stepped down with a tear in her eye and the Deacon tried to reach for her and only got a shrug of her shoulders in response. She ran past Lynn not even bothering to look at her. She felt like she had done Kate wrong. It made her feel less than a woman.

  For that final nail in the coffin, Lynn walked down the aisle towards the door running her hands up and down her body and mouthing the words “All of this can be yours. Pay the price and you can make all your dirty fantasies come true.” There were a lot of guys that couldn’t sit still. They had conjured up all sorts of scenarios. Many of them had never had a virgin and the very prospect had lent to those thoughts that were not exactly pure of heart. Some had never even considered cheating on their wives, but this was almost a temptation that was hard to resist.

  She walked out in the parking lot and saw the gray Ford Volvo speed past with a plume of dust in its wake. Lynn watched Helen mumbling something underneath her breath with her hands firmly clasped on the steering wheel. She didn’t bother to try to flag her down and it didn’t seem there was any point. She could walk the few blocks back to her house. It was such a nice day. She felt vindicated by how she had acted. If they wanted to play with her life, then they were going to have to realize that could have ramifications that went beyond just the church walls.

  She took a few steps, until she was bumping into a man with blue jeans, a red shirt and a black bolo tie. His black hat made him look like he was about ready to wrangle a horde of buffalo or cows in the pasture. He was tall and over 6 feet with the kind of muscles that threatened to rip through the shirt that he was wearing. Casting her eyes downward she found them placed on the object that had women whispering behind closed doors. Lynn saw his face and was not immune to that of Mitchell Wright. She had heard some stories about him and how no woman in any bar was safe from his advances.

  “Where’s the rush? Church has only begun. I just saw Helen crying. I’m assuming that you had something to do with that, Lynn.” Mitchell had known all about Lynn and he pitied her for losing both of her parents at such a young age. He couldn’t help but to admire the way that she had grown up over the years into a desirable woman with the kind of curves that made him want to grab hold in a not so friendly manner. “Don’t tell me that you are fighting with your mother again. Where has the respect for Elders gone? I know growing up that I wasn’t allowed any kind of reprieve for doing something wrong. It usually ended up with my father spanking my ass. Something like that is considered child abuse in this day and age.” Mitchell could see that this girl was bigger than most, but it was for that very reason he found himself quite entranced.

  “She’s not my mother. I’m tired of trying to make everybody understand that. I don’t know why everybody is so accepting of her to be my mother. It’s only been a year since my real mother died and you all expect me to bend over backward to welcome this woman into my life. She’s only been by a few times when I was growing up and why my mother even considered her to be ready for this kind of responsibility is beyond me.” Lynn had curves and was a big beautiful woman that had a lot more to offer than those girls that would probably drown if they fell into the sea. She had the buoyancy to float and one of her bigger assets was those that Mitchell was now staring at. “I don’t know why I haven’t noticed that before. He’s always watching me from afar and I’ve seen him walk by our house at the most unusual hours. I get this feeling that maybe I don’t have to look too far to lose my innocence. Mitchell is charismatic, quite the ladies’ man and I’m sure that he would love to sink his cock into my tight hole.”

  “I know how Helen can get caught up in her own stuff and that’s the reason why your mother thought that she would make a suitable candidate. I don’t know if she’s motherly material, but she is doing her best and you should give her at least some credit for that. I don’t know what I would do if somebody sidled me with their kid and had the attitude that you show her every day. Why she puts up with it is most likely because she feels that she owes a debt to your mother. They were best friends growing up in high school and I’ve seen them fight over guys but then realize that no guy was worth their friendship. They even fought over your father and him dying so inexplicably 19 years ago hurt the both of them more than you can ever know.” Mitchell stood there and looked at her. It was best not to stare directly at the mounds in front of him. There was no denying that she wasn’t wearing a bra and he had a wonder if maybe she was also going commando underneath that skirt. He was praying for a slight breeze to lift the skirt.

  “I may pretend to be bad, but I’ve always known when to stop before going too far. That is until I found out that Helen crossed the line by reading my diary. It would be something if I had just left it lying around. I always lock it and place it underneath my mattress. That meant that she had to literally go searching for it and then finding it by accident wasn’t good enough. She had to take it one step further by breaking in. She thinks she has the right to talk to me about my love life. I don’t have one to speak of and I may make out with a few young boys that don’t know what they’re doing. What I really need is a real man. I need someone that can take this beautiful body of mine and mold it into a woman. I’ve even mentioned in passing that I’m willing to give it up for the right price. What do you suppose is the right price for something like that, Mitchell?” “I can see him looking at me and I know that he’s probably undressing me with his eyes. I want him to do more than that and I’m giving him the right of first service. If he doesn’t take me up on my offer, I’m sure that there are others that would literally line around the block for the chance.”

  “I take it that’s the reason why she tore out of here in a hurry. You have the unmitigated gall to say something like that in front of all of her friends and the Deacon. I give you credit for having the balls to do something like that, but do you think that it was appropriate under the circumstances?” Mitchell had his fair share of women. He was known as a bit of a playboy, but underneath he was hurting. He had put up the walls to prevent his heart from being broken again. He was older than Lynn by at 15 years. The very thought of placing his cock into a woman that had not been fully broken in was making him sweat.

  “You can stand there indignant, but I can see from the bulge in your pants that this is something that you would like to be a part of. I’ve had this crush on you for some time and maybe I don’t have to do something as nasty as advertise it. You could easily put a stop to that by saying that you will be my first. Every girl remembers their first or so I’m told. It’s not like to have that kind of experience. An older guy has it going on and I’ve seen several older men from the neighborhood wondering what I would look like naked. Do you suppose that a man like yourself would like to reach into his pockets and find the right amount of money that is going to put a smile on both of our faces?” Lynn was purposely touching his arm and licking her lips with anticipation of what Mitchell would be like on top of her, underneath her or behind her.” I want him, but I will find somebody else i
f he says anything that doesn’t resemble a yes to my proposal. I’ve heard stories of men and how much better they are when they are older. Experience goes a long way to satisfying a woman’s curiosity and her needs all at the same time.”

  “You dare say something like that to me and expect me to answer you. You should be ashamed of your behavior and I will not dignify that remark with any kind of response. Go home and make up with Helen before you do irreparable harm that you can never come back from. Any guy your own age would give you what you’re looking for. There’s no reason to sell your body like some common whore on the street. I will say that I do have enough money that I could make it worth your while. I can’t believe that I’m even thinking such a thing. What would be the going rate for your virginity? It is a sought after commodity from those guys that never experienced anything like it. I’ve been with women, but I’ve never been with a girl that wanted to become a woman. What am I saying? I can’t think about something like this.” Mitchell tried to walk away only to feel something massaging his length. He looked down to see that her nimble fingers had decided to convince him in a more direct fashion.

  “I would say that you have nothing to be shy about. I think that there are several ladies that would be happy to praise your virtue. I’ve heard talk and I thought that it might be an exaggeration, but I’m beginning to understand that it’s far from it. You do know how to fill those jeans out in just the right way. Pressing up against my palm like this and the zipper being pulled down by the weight of that impressive piece is almost too hard to pull away from. I would seriously give it some thought, Mitchell and this is not an offer that comes around every day. Name a price and I might consider you to be at the top of the list.”

  “One million dollars.” He blurted out that number like it was something that was ready to spew from his lips. He looked embarrassed. He looked back to see if anybody had heard what he said. He was grateful that there was nobody there and the only witness to his proposition was the young girl that had brought it up in the first place.
