EIGHT

GI Cowboy

Plush Stud Ranch

Bren stretched her limbs out. Her body was tender all over. This must be what it means to be loved hard. Rode hard? She smiled and her eyes popped open. Sitting up, she looked around the room.

She wondered where her sweet cowboy went. A feeling of panic nudged its way in. Oh, he can’t be wandering around in this house! Why, he would see—well, no tellin’ what! She jumped off the bed and looked for her robe.

Visions crashed through her mind. Such unmentionable things. From ladies groping him to Daisy sneaking him onto the stage. Oh! She could just see the cat callin’ and the howling for him to take it off! Her movements became more rushed. Why didn’t I warn him? Well, what was I supposed to say? Watch out for all the man meat grabbin’ hussies?

The bedroom door opened just as she tied her rope sash.

Trevor stood for a second in the doorway and then slammed it behind him.

Bren took a step forward.

“Wait!” he whispered.

At the look on his face, Bren bit at her lip.

“I finally get it. This isn’t a regular beef ranch.”

Sighing, Bren waited for the backlash. Her mama was a Madame for a stud ranch…this stunning fact had to eventually hit the shit fan.

“Firstly, I went to find some dinner. I was gonna surprise you.”

That was so sweet! She then shook her head, clearing the romantic notion from her mind, and waited for the shitstorm.

“Next thing I know, a swarm of women stampeded me!” He shook his head and marched over to the closet door. “They…” He seemed to wince at the thought. “Felt me up!”

Raising her hands to her mouth, she knew her worst fears had come true. “I’m—?”

Trev put his hand up to silence her. “Then, when I finally got their paws off me, they began offering me money!” He jerked the closet door open, the door almost cracking its wood as it hit the wall.

“Trev—”

“No!” He grabbed a pair of jeans and a blouse from the hangers. “We’re leaving!” He walked over and threw the outfit onto the bed, then turned to fish through the dresser drawers.

Bren was truly worried now. Did he think all of this with her was a mistake now? Her being the daughter of a…

Stalking back, he added a lacey bra and underwear to the clothes pile. He swiftly grabbed her robe sash and untied it. Next, he peeled it away from her shoulders. “We are going to hightail it outta here!” He flung the robe aside and paused.

Her eyes had filled up with tears. How can I explain my way out of this one? I can’t. My mama does what she does and that’s all I could say about that.

Trev stared at her face. “What’s the matter?’

Her tears welled up bad now. “I’m sorry.”

Trevor smiled for the first time since he came into the room. “It’s not your doin’.”

Tears rolled down her cheeks. “But—?”

“No buts. I just don’t think this is a good place for—you.
