“No one.” He kissed the top of her head. “What about you? Do you think you could consider the role?”
Kate frowned. “You’re asking me to work for you? What about my shop?”
He winced because he was really trying to ask her to move in with him.
“Uh, forget I even mentioned it.”
This made her chuckle and she looked up at him. “If you want, we can figure out a way for me to help you until you have someone new to take over?”
Cruz looked at her, and he smiled. “Really?”
“Yeah, if you want.”
He ran a hand down his face. “It’s a lot of work, so if you want, we can trial it. Would you be willing to come and live at the ranch?” He was testing the waters.
“Live at the ranch?”
“Yeah, it’s only a trial, so you can still keep this place, or at least until someone takes the job?”
No one was going to take the job. No one liked him enough to work for him. It was a miracle Felicity lasted as long as she did, and the truth was, that only happened because he didn’t fire her, all because of Kate.
“And I’ll be cooking for you?” Kate asked.
“And the ranchers. I think some of them are close to quitting if I even so much as approach the stove.”
This made her laugh. He loved that sound, and wanted to keep making her laugh.
“You’re so funny. Fine, I am happy to try that, but I’m not giving up my shop. I worked hard to get where I am, but I think it would be pretty cool to cook for you.”
He didn’t have any problem with her wanting to keep her shop. He admired and respected all the hard work she’d put into it. Looking down into her beautiful eyes, he was so taken with her, had been for a long time. He didn’t even know why he hadn’t approached her until now.
Cruz just couldn’t resist, so he closed the distance between them and took possession of her lips. She let out a little moan, and with his other hand, he stroked it down to cup her tit. He massaged her tit within his palm, and then slowly, running the tips of his fingers down her body, he cupped her between her thighs.
Kate arched up. Another moan escaped her.
And he slid a finger between her slit, stroking from her entrance, up to her clit, and he circled her nub. Then he pressed down, going toward her entrance, to find her soaking wet, and slowly, inch by inch, he sunk his finger inside her.
Then, he added a second finger and pumped them inside her. She thrust up to meet him, and then he started to trail his lips down her neck, but Kate suddenly captured his hands, stopping him from moving.
“What is it, babe?” he asked.
“There’s something I want to try.” She smiled up at him, and he was pretty sure that had to be the wickedest smile he’d ever seen on her lips. This made him chuckle, especially as she pressed her hand against his chest, and he decided to just follow her lead. Lying back, he looked up at her as she loomed over him, and then she leaned down and kissed him. “Now, you try to relax.”
“Babe, I am relaxed,” he said.
She kissed his lips, and he cupped her cheek, sinking his fingers into her hair, only Kate pulled away, and her lips were on his neck. He closed his eyes, enjoying her attentions.
She started to kiss down his body, going to each of his nipples, where she flicked her tongue, and then he knew exactly her intentions as she started to kiss down his stomach. He was relaxed and yet tense at the same time.
“Are you comfortable?” she asked.
“Very.”
“Good.”
And he felt her wrap her fingers around his length, going from the base up to the tip, and back down again, as her lips started to make a path down toward his dick. He watched her, unable to tear his gaze away. She looked so fucking sexy as she tentatively flicked her tongue right across the tip of his dick. He had no choice but to grit his teeth as she took his cock into her mouth, and then he warned her not to use too much teeth.
She started to suck him into her mouth, and Cruz had to clench his hands into fists, as he knew he was the first man she’d ever been with, and she didn’t know what she was doing. It felt so good. She took him in deep, and once she hit the back of her throat, she pulled back.
