SHIT.

SHIT. SHIT. Shit!

I should have told him. I knew I should have at least told him my suspicions.

But I hadn’t, and now here I sat, naked in Colt’s bed, by myself.

A sore ache cut through my body as I thought of where he’d been, where his lips had been just minutes ago.

“Grrr.” I climbed out of bed, pulling on my jeans and shirt from yesterday before running down the stairs two at a time.

I waved hello and goodbye as the owners of Circle C, Nash and Colt’s sister, Eden, made breakfast in the kitchen. Their eyes shot wide before laughter followed me out the front door. I loved them both. In the few short months I’d been boarding Chase here, I’d watched them fall in love. They were two of the most genuine people I’d ever come to know.

I tried to ignore the embarrassment that crept up my cheeks as my eyes cast across the farmyard in search of that broad, familiar stretch of shoulders, the lean legs with the slight limp on one side. My eyes narrowed when I spied him in the garage, cowboy hat thrown on top of his head, firing up the engine of the John Deere tractor.

He wheeled out of the building a moment later and was headed toward the fields.

“Colt Sutherland!” I called at the top of my lungs. He didn’t hear me.

I jogged across the yard, following him down the old rutted two-track that led to the front field. The hay was over my head, ready to be cut and baled for the winter. The sun was already beating down even though it was early in the morning, and sweat beaded on my forehead as I made my way across the deep furrows.

“Colt Sutherland, you stubborn fucker,” I gritted out when he turned the tractor down a side trail. I jogged a few more paces, then watched as he peeled the white tee off his bronzed shoulders, discarding it in the chair beside him before he wiped his forehead with the back of his hand.

Jesus, he was fucking gorgeous. And infuriating.

“Colt!” I screamed, relieved when he heard me and turned.

His eyes narrowed before he shook his head. “Get up here, Caroline!”

Oh my God, he’d done it.

He’d called me by my old name.

And just like that, something fell apart inside me then re-formed back together differently. More whole. A part of him, somehow. I hadn’t realized how much I missed being his Caroline.

I couldn't be mad at him, not really. Not after all the time we'd lost. Not after how sweet he'd been...being angry about this now felt silly.

“Get your wild ass up here.” He clasped my hand.

“God, you make me mad sometimes,” I breathed when he hauled me up into the cab of the tractor. He settled me on his lap, and I wrapped my thighs around either side of his hips as he pressed a kiss against my lips. I could never turn away his kisses.

“Touch?, beautiful.”

“I’m sorry I didn’t tell you sooner,” I said softly.
