We both laugh, and Waylon startles, pausing his feed to let out a heartbroken little cry.“Aww, buddy, it’s okay.Just wait ’til mama lets you loose on the bunkhouse.You could give Wade and Cash a run for their money.”
“If you think I’m about to let my son live in a bunkhouse with all the wild that goes on there, you’ve got another think coming, cowboy.”
“Maybe just the stables then?”I wink.“Eggs okay for breakfast?”
“We’re not heading over to the main house?”
“Darlin’, the only one I’m willing to share you with today is Waylon.My family can wait.I never pretended to be a selfless man.”
She swallows hard, and that little line forms between her brow, like she’s overthinking my every word.Which reminds me.
“Is he about done?”I ask.
“He’s been asleep for a few minutes.”She pops him off her nipple and props him up against her shoulder, patting his back to burp him.I stand and hold out my hand.Daisy looks at it, confused.“I owe you a dance.”
Daisy laughs.“In your bedroom?”
“Wherever you want.”
“I thought cowboys didn’t dance?”She places her hand in mine, and I pull her to her feet.
“I said I didn’t wanna dance there, with all of those eyes watching us,” I say.Daisy opens her mouth to argue, but I hold up a finger.“And before you go sayin’ something stupid like, ‘are you ashamed to be with me’, I wanna say one thing.I’m a private man, Dais.I didn’t want our relationship to wind up fodder for the Red River Canyon Report, but I couldn’t give two shits what they say about me.”I pull her into my arms and rock all three of us slowly from side to side.“All I care about is you and Waylon.I knew if I danced with you last night, I was gonna kiss you and never want to stop touching you.I needed to make sure you were okay with being mine first.”
She closes her eyes, her lips tipping up in a soft smile that makes me want to take her to bed all over again.“Say it again, cowboy.”
“You’re mine, darlin’.All fucking mine,” I whisper.I cup her cheek and lean in, kissing those soft lips I don’t ever intend to give up now that I’ve had a taste.
Chapter Thirty-one
Daisy-Mae
“You sure you wannado this?Because I’m totally amenable to just heading back home and grabbing a bite there.”West wraps his arms around me and pulls me back against his chest, dipping his head to sneak kisses along the sensitive skin where my neck meets my shoulder.Goosepimples break out over my body, and my nipples bead, that familiar pricking desire.As much as I’d love to just head back to bed with West today, I actually have an appointment in town I can’t get out of.
“Yeah, and then we’d all be starving because I know you, cowboy.Your ‘bite’ is gonna be out of me.”
“You got me,” He growls in my ear.“Just give me the go ahead and I’m gonna devour that sweet pussy.”
