“A lot of people believe that.”
“Not enough.”
“I won’t disagree. I wish everyone was accepting of others.” She quickly downed the contents of her mug and smiled. “Time to play?”
Hell yes.He liked this woman already.
Chapter Five
Hope placedthe empty coffee mug in the sink. While their conversation had been great, that wasn’t why she had come to his cabin. No, she was there for physical, not mental, stimulation.
She hadn’t had sex in at least two months now, ever since she informed Darren she would be teaching yoga classes at Double D Ranch.
“You’re really willing to give me up for that little bit of money you’ll make from those pervs?”
The perv comment had really pissed her off, so she simply replied, “Yes,” and left it at that. She could’ve told him that she didn’t like where he stood on a lot of topics, or how he treated some people, or that their sex life had become mundane, but she didn’t need to insult him to make her feel better about her decision.
And that was what it was. A decision forherlife. Not his.
Whenever they had sex, he also discouraged anything even remotely non-vanilla. Because of that, she’d beensuppressing some of her desires in an attempt to keep things between them smooth.
She liked a variety. Darren didn’t.
Her ex-boyfriend also held the opinion that teaching yoga classes was a hobby, not a “real” job.
In the end, her relationship with Darren proved two weeks wasn’t nearly long enough to know someone before moving in together. Yes, they’d had their good moments, but in the end, their ideologies clashed too much for them to live in complete harmony. She had ignored it for a while, until there came a point she couldn’t anymore.
Getting hired by Double D Ranch had been the perfect excuse to end their relationship. She wished Darren well with whatever his future held. Unfortunately, she did not get that in return. He was the kind of man who relentlessly judged others but thought his own shit didn’t stink.
Now she was single again and free to do whatever she was in the mood for. And right now, she was in the mood to do the tall, handsome, former trooper that stood only a few feet away.
He was game. She was game. Obviously, it was time to play.
She spun around. “What are you into besides men?”
“Women,” he said, tongue in cheek.
“Obviously. Last time I checked, I am one. Other than that?”
“Satisfying sex.” He was purposely being obtuse.
“Well, look at that. So am I. What else? You need to narrow it down.”
He cocked an eyebrow. “Do I? Or should we just explore?”
“Do you have a safe word?”
“Do you?”
She smiled. “I do.”
Cam mirrored that smile. “So do I.”
Her smile spread. “I like the sound of that.”
“You probably won’t hear it.”
She also liked a challenge. “Don’t bet on it.”
