Chapter Eight

More than sex? Mickie scoffed at the idea. No way, I won’t let it. With Randy’s history of preferring submissive, malleable women, it would be idiocy to agree with him. He couldn’t even stay married to one. Okay, that wasn’t fair, she conceded. Melanie had cheated on him, and from what Caroline had told her, he wasted no time filing for divorce and booting her out when he learned of her infidelity.

Mickie reached for the door handle, looking at Randy. Like her, he loved the outdoors, and it showed in his tanned, rugged profile, his face more mature yet the same as when she first set eyes on him. She was always more comfortable with the familiar, and other than her parents, she’d thought no one in her life, past or present, was as well-known to her as this man. Yet, for the life of her, she couldn’t figure out what he wanted from her now, or how to give it to him without setting herself up to get hurt again.

“You’re thinking too hard, Mickie.” Randy leaned over and brushed that sexy mouth over her lips.

The gentle touch to her bruised mouth reminded her of his earlier high-handedness, and she used that topic to divert his attention from her effort to accept this change he wanted. “I can handle my dad, and I’m not afraid of him.”

“No, you never were, of him or anything else that I’m aware of. But make him take responsibility for his actions, all of them. If you continue to cater to him, he’ll continue to take advantage of your misplaced familial loyalty.”

“You wouldn’t do the same for Ron and Caroline?”

“I most definitely would, the difference being their exemplary parenting and unconditional love the past thirty-eight years opposed to your folks’ self-centered neglect and now abuse of you.” He pinched her chin. “Erase that pigheaded expression. You don’t have to like it, but you know I’m right. Go. I have to get to the tedious paperwork waiting for me.”

She opened the door and hopped down then slammed it shut without another word. He was right, and she didn’t like it but agreed it would be best if she gave her parent time to cool down and think about his actions. Since Randy insisted on this change between them, at least she could look forward to more of those mind-numbing orgasms to distract her from worrying.

Mickie made her way to Firestorm’s stall and checked the horse’s hoof. “Yep, you’ve managed to get yourself infected again.” She dropped his leg and patted his shoulder. “Be right back.”

“Do they ever answer you?” Lance asked, holding the stall gate open.

“Sure, with a nudge or head brush against me.” Glancing in the next stall at the calf, she said, “This one can rejoin the herd today. I’ll take him if you can’t.”

“I planned to ride up to that pasture shortly, when I finish in the barn. Go ahead and take Black Jack out when you’re done with Firestorm. I’ll get this guy back to his momma.
