Six

Nina awakened slowly. Noises came in through the partially opened window, which also let in a light breeze. They weren’t the normal city noises that she was used to. No, these were the sounds of a working ranch. A horse’s whinny, the jingle of a bridle, men laughing and talking as they started a new day.

She snuggled into the plush mattress, sighing deeply. A person could get used to this.

No, she couldn’t let anything influence her decision to leave. As soon as she checked out the ranch and where it stood financially, her days here would be numbered. It would be back to the city for her. The crowds, the traffic, concrete everywhere you looked.

No, she really did love the city. She did.

But just for a moment, she wondered what it would be like to wake up to this every morning, to be able to photograph more than naked male models. She’d always wanted to take pictures of nature: hills and streams, the animals in their natural habitat. Not something painted on a canvas background with a fake cowboy posing in front of it. She wanted the raw reality of men who actually tamed this wild land.

Like Lance had tamed the horse. Like Lance had tamed me.

The thought flashed across her mind before she could stop it. She snuggled deeper into her pillow—at least he had for a little while. The man did know how to make love. She wouldn’t mind a couple of repeat performances before she left.

Damn, the sex had been fantastic. She luxuriated in the memories of making love with him until she couldn’t stand not having the flesh-and-blood man in front of her and shoved the covers to the side before jumping out of bed.

She did a quick sponge bath and pulled on a pair of jeans and a green tank top that left half her midriff bare. A pair of tennis shoes on her feet, a rubber band pulling her hair back, and she was set to go.

Grabbing her camera off the chair, she left the room, pausing outside her grandfather’s door.

Had she really thought she could face a possible attacker with a blow dryer? That had been so lame.

She bounced down the stairs and almost straight into Lance’s arms. A giant condor flapped his wings inside her stomach.

“Good morning,” she said, in what she hoped was a normal-sounding voice, then smiled brightly.

“You look like you’re feeling pretty good.”

“All this country air.”

“Told you it would grow on you.”

“Don’t get your hopes up. I still plan on leaving. I’m thinking of this as a nice vacation. Like all vacations, this one will end, too.”

“We’ll see.”

His gaze moved slowly over her as if to refute her claim. When he met her gaze he wore a perfectly innocent expression.

She knew better.

There wasn’t a thing innocent about him. For which she had been oh so grateful yesterday. He’d scratched an itch that had been bothering her for way too long. Problem was, she was starting to itch again. This wouldn’t do at all.
