Nine

The next morning, Rico and Megan left the Golden Glade Ranch after breakfast to head out to Forbes. He had been driving now for a little more than a half hour and his GPS indicated they had less than a hundred miles to go. He glanced up at the skies, saw the gray clouds and was certain it would rain before they reached their destination.

Rico then glanced over at Megan and saw she was still sleeping soundly and had been since he’d hit the interstate. Good. He had a feeling she hadn’t gotten much sleep last night.

She had pretty much remained quiet on the drive back to the ranch from the south ridge, and once there, she quickly said good-night and rushed off to her room, closing the door behind her. And then this morning at breakfast, she hadn’t been very talkative. Several times he had caught her barely able to keep her eyes open. If Clint and Alyssa had found her drowsiness strange, neither had commented on it.

Rico remembered every single thing about last night, and, if truth be told, he hadn’t thought of much of anything else since. Megan Westmoreland had more passion in her little finger than most women had in their entire bodies. And just the thought that no other man had tempted her to release all that passion was simply mind-boggling to him.

Ramsey had warned him that she was strong-willed. However, even the most strong-willed person couldn’t fight a well-orchestrated seduction. But then, being overcome with passion wasn’t a surrender. He saw it as her acceptance that nothing was wrong with enjoying her healthy sexuality.

I like being my own person and not following the crowd. Those were the words she had spoken last night. He remembered them and had both admired and respected her for taking that stance. His sisters had basically been the same and had handled their own business. Even when Savannah had gotten pregnant by Durango, she had been prepared to go at it alone had he not wanted to claim the child as his. And knowing his sister, marriage had not been on her mind when she’d gone out to Montana to tell Durango he was going to be a father. Thanks to Jeff Claiborne, a bad taste had been left in Savannah’s mouth where marriage was concerned. That same bad taste had been left in Rico’s, as well.

But Savannah had married Durango and was happy and so were Jess and Chase. Rico was happy for them, and with them married off, he had turned his time and attention to other things. His investigation business mainly. And now, he thought, glancing over at Megan again, to her. She was the first woman in years who had garnered any real attention from him.

What he’d told her last night was true. What they’d started was just the beginning. She hadn’t responded to what he’d said one way or the other, but he hadn’t really expected her to. He had been tempted to ask if she’d wanted to talk about last night but she had dozed off before he could do so.
