“Is this your first massage with warming oil?” Tracy asked.
“This is my first massage ever.”
“What?” she asked, the heels of her palms bearing down as her hands traveled across his lower back. “No way.”
“Yes way,” he groaned, loving each word she spoke and every move she made.
“You’ll never forget this first time with me,” she purred.
“No, I won’t forget.” He sighed with pleasure. “I hope it’s the first of many.”
“I hope so too.”
Cash wondered if it was too soon to tell Tracy he loved her. He hadn’t even known for two full weeks. He’d never been in love. Were there rules? He didn’t want to scare her.
“What is warming oil?” he asked.
“The one I brought with me is a cinnamon essential oil,” she said, her fingers splayed now as she pushed and pulledthem across his flesh like a tide rolling onto the shore and retreating into the ocean. “Cinnamon essential oil can alleviate stiff muscles and ease aches in joints. It nourishes the skin and enhances circulation. It’s supposed to decrease stress. But I guess you’ll be the judge of that.”
“Well, princess of the cinnamon kiss, it’s doing all of that,” Cash agreed, her elbows manipulating his muscles and eliminating knots he didn’t know he had. The massage was every bit as delightful as Tracy had promised. But it was the woman, and not the oil she was rubbing into his skin, causing hot blood to pound into his lower body. He teased her with, “Did you know it increases libido?”
She giggled that sexy laugh. “I have heard that, not that you need it.”
“I’ll prove it to you if you let me roll over.”
“Mmm…that is tempting. But you’re not on cloud nine yet.”
With that, Tracy ran her cinnamon-oiled hands gently over his slightly rounded butt cheeks. Cash wasn’t sure how much more he could take. The pleasure rolled from head to toe and a low groan starting in his chest escaped through his teeth. Tracy slid forward until she was sitting on his buttocks. She leaned down and her bare breasts molded to his back. Cash was certain this angel had dropped out of the stars and through the clouds because what she made him feel mentally and physically was absolute heaven on earth.
“Is this part of a regular massage?” Of course, he knew it wasn’t.
“From me to you, it is.”
“Is it restricted to my back, or does it include my front?”
“Roll over now and find out.”
Cash found out the massage most definitely included his front; chest, stomach, and lower. He ached, but it was from agonizing pleasure until she transported him into a sensual, hard throbbing, blissful paradise. Cloud nine? Oh, hell yes.
CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR
Rainclouds hung low in the sky on Saturday morning as Tracy and Cash stood in his driveway.
“Dude, I have surprises for the two of you,” Cash said to the German shepherd sitting between them before giving Tracy a cocky grin.
“What’re the surprises?” Tracy asked as they waited for Jacob. He’d texted after enjoying one last ride on Chief and lunch with his wrangler buddies. He’d bid the guys farewell and was stopping by Cash’s house to say goodbye before heading back into the Springs. “Tell us, Cash.”
Cash chuckled and took a sip of the black coffee from the mug in his left hand. “You have to wait and see.”
“Oh, come on,” Tracy pleaded and took hold of his right hand with both of hers.
“Not telling you.” He laughed and squeezed her hand. “But Dude’s surprise is that he’s invited to Triple C Ranch-Central this evening.”
“Did you hear that, Dude?” Tracy asked and the dog barked.
“Colton wants a dog,” Cash said and scratched Dude’s head. Chase and Jade are considering a German shepherd because they like the way Dude and Spike interact with thekids. They know German shepherds are fearless and protective.”
“Smart and loyal too,” Tracy added.
