Cowboy Stalker

“This really needs to stop,” I say the words softly under my breath.

But he lifts his head from the dishwasher because he heard me. Of course, he heard me.

Just like I have a Griffin-radar, I’m beginning to think he has a Missy-radar. Is that thing? Can soulmates sense each other like that?

“Don’t worry. There’s still time to put in another load,” he answers as if we’re talking about the dishwasher.

“No, this. This thing between us. I—“

I step forward then stop and blow out a breath. I don’t have much experience, and I don’t believe in playing games with someone’s heart.

So, I force myself to explain, “I like you. I do, and you’re very kind. But you should go and date a girl who can give you what you want.”

He abandons the dishwasher, stepping around it. He cups my face, his fingertips still wet from the dishes.

“I know you’re scared, but you’re not alone anymore. I’ve got your back.”

I blink against the unexpected moisture in my eyes. “It’s not that easy.”

His thumb strokes my cheek, his touch light and reverent.

“I’m not asking for easy. Give me your burdens. Put all the heaviness on my shoulders. Let me carry it.”

I reach for the front of his flannel shirt, pulling him close. I raise up on my tiptoes and seal our lips together in a gentle kiss.

He cups the back of my head, threading his fingers through my messy ponytail.

He lets me explore his mouth, learning his taste and his shape. At least, until I moan against him.

The vibration traveling from my body to his turns my gentle cowboy into a rumbling beast.

His hands go to my hips, digging hard into my soft flesh.

He lifts me onto the counter, and I instantly part my knees for him.

My hands go to this shoulders, pulling him as close as possible.

“You taste like my future,” he breathes against my lips.
