CHAPTER THIRTEEN

IT WAS WRONG on so many levels to stare at Lucky’s crotch, but that’s what Cassie found herself doing. Why, she didn’t know.

Yes, she did.

It was because of those leather chaps he was wearing. They just sort of framed his crotch and acted like a neon sign that said, Look here, look here!

So Cassie looked.

At least now her tongue was no longer on the ground, though that’s where it’d landed when Lucky had first called out for her to come watch him ride. She had stepped out of the house, expecting to see him in his usual jeans, boots and shirt. But instead, she’d gotten this.

The chaps, leather vest, denim shirt, spurs, gloves and the bull rope he had looped over his shoulder.

Her eyes had instantly gone to his crotch, but her mind had taken an even dirtier side trip. He looked just as ready for some BDSM as he did a bull ride. Not that she was into BDSM, or bull rides, either, for that matter, but it was an interesting image to add to her fantasies.

She only got to enjoy the fantasy a whole couple of seconds, though, before her phone buzzed and Cassie saw Andrew’s name on the screen. He’d no doubt finally listened to the voice mail she’d left him.

“Another week?” Andrew snapped, his disapproval coming through loud and clear from the other end of the line.

Even though Cassie couldn’t see his face, she figured the disapproval was in his expression, too, and that was why she wouldn’t mention that she’d put off telling him for two days that that was how long it would be before the custody issue was resolved. Thankfully, Andrew had been so busy with his therapy sessions that he was conducting online from the Bluebonnet Inn that he hadn’t pressed Cassie on nailing down a specific time for them to leave.

Well, they had a specific time now.

A week, or rather only five more days, until Aunt Alice arrived. It was exactly what Lucky and she had been waiting for ever since they’d gotten the girls, but it somehow felt like a hollow victory. Mackenzie was still sullen. Still hurting. Still needed help that she might not get with her aunt. At least Mackenzie was talking to Brody, a lot, and that was better than her moping around the house and labeling everything and everyone as sucky and stupid.

“The aunt might get here sooner,” Cassie continued. “The week was just a general estimate. She was out of the country on business, but when she gets back home, she’ll be coming from Phoenix.”

“Well, she must be infirmed or hobbling because it doesn’t take that long to get from there to here.”

“No, but I suspect she had some things to take care of first. Like maybe getting the girls’ rooms ready and such.”

At least Cassie hoped the woman was making those kinds of plans, and making them in blissful anticipation of getting Mia and Mackenzie.

Because the girls deserved that.

“Certainly Lucky can handle those children until the aunt arrives,” Andrew insisted.
