CHAPTER 6
They spent two nights at the cabin. It rained sheets all the first night and the road was too muddy to get up with the buggy the next day. She knew everyone would be worried about them. She was most concerned with Rachel. The sweet girl would be beside herself worrying about her papa.
Caleb kept her occupied making love and playing cards. Their clothes finally dried out but they didn’t put them on until they were getting ready to leave. Maggie found that it was quite freeing to go around naked for a couple of days. If it were just she and Caleb she might never wear clothes again. At least she’d never want him to wear them. His body was delightful to look at. All strong planes and lean lines, muscular without being bulky. Perfect as far as she was concerned. And the things he could do with that body, the things he had her doing. Just the thought made heat rush to her core.
“There you go again. Thinking about what we’ve done here the last two days,” he teased.
“How do you know what I’m thinking?”
“You blush, from your breasts to the top of your head. It’s quite lovely really, because I know that I’m the cause of that blush. And I’ll always know. When we get back home, I’ll know every time you think about us.” He took her in his arms, their clothes seeming to be such an encumbrance now. “I love that you think about us. That I can make you blush and that you smile at the same time. I’m going to miss this, miss our private time together.”
She wrapped her arms around him and laid her head on his chest. Unwilling to let reality intrude just yet. “You’re just saying that because I beat you at poker.”
“I let you win.”
“You didn’t!”
“Alright, I didn’t. You caught on very quickly. Want to play one last game? We could bet our clothes. I know both of us will be the winner that way.”
She shook her head and stood away from him, already bereaved at the loss of his body from hers. She’d never get enough of him. Not if they had all the time in the world, which they didn’t.
“We need to get home. Rachel has got to be worried about her papa who hasn’t been home to read to her for two nights. Fran and Tom have probably got a search party out looking for us. No, we need to go back.” Back to reality, bleak reality.
Caleb nodded. “I suppose you’re right.” He looked around the shack. “Doesn’t look like we were ever here.”
They were mostly quiet on the ride back to the ranch. There wasn’t much to say. Caleb had tried to change her mind again and again, even going so far as to try withholding her orgasm. Nothing had worked. She was adamant. She wouldn’t give up her freedom and there was no reason for them to marry. They were good together in bed, but it wasn’t as if they loved each other.
