Saving You (Love Wanted In Texas Book 2) (28 page)

The door opened and Luke got in. “Colt’s heading home. Alone.”

I let out the breath I was holding. “Good.”

Luke pulled out of the parking lot and looked over at me. “Did I tell you? I bought you a new toy?”

Squeezing my legs together I whispered, “Hurry home.”

OPENING MY EYES
, I squinted from the sun shining through the window. I stretched and moaned softly. Luke had his wicked way with me last night and I was relishing in every succulent memory. His lips softly kissing my body, his mouth on my mouth, his unbelievable ability to make love to me, and make it feel like the first time every time.

Smiling, I placed my fingertips to my lips. His stubble felt amazing on my body last night, but I was sure I would pay for it today. Pushing back the covers, I walked into the bathroom. One look in the mirror and I knew I had been thoroughly fucked last night. Closing my eyes I hugged myself, then pinched myself.

Nope. Still not dreaming.

Brushing my teeth and throwing my hair up in a ponytail, I turned and walked back into the bedroom. I put on my favorite comfy clothes, and a pair of fuzzy socks. Rubbing my hands down my arms, I made my way downstairs. I had no clue where Luke had snuck off to, especially on such a chilly morning.

As I walked down the stairs, my nose was filled with the smells of coffee, bacon, and pancakes. I reached the bottom step and stopped. Luke was in the kitchen with Lauren. They were cooking and dancing together to Dan + Shay’s “Nothin’ Like You”. Smiling, my heart filled with more love for this man. The way he was making Lauren smile and laugh spoke more than any words could.

Walking over, I sat on the bar stool as Luke gave me a quick wink. “I talked Lauren into making her famous pancakes.”

I raised my eyebrows and smiled bigger. It was nice to see Lauren with a smile on her face. She had seemed sad lately. “What are your plans today, Lauren?” I asked as Luke set a cup of coffee down in front of me.

Lauren sighed. “Study. Then study some more.”

Looking at Luke, my stomach fluttered when our eyes met. I quickly looked away. If I kept looking at him, I was going to pull him back upstairs. Grace came walking into the kitchen and let out a whispered good morning. Pouring her coffee Luke kissed her on the cheek. “Good morning, Sweet Pea. Hope you slept good.” Rolling her eyes she took a sip of coffee and glanced over to me. I smiled and she pulled her coffee from her lips.

Giving me a wicked smile, Grace pointed to me. “Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. You got some serious action last night, didn’t you?”

Gaping my mouth open, I moved about uncomfortably in my seat. Widening my eyes, I looked at her. “W—why do you ask?”

Grace threw her head back and laughed. Shaking her head she took another drink of coffee and moved around the island, she came and sat next to me on the stool. “Let’s see. You have that just-fucked glow about you. Your skin looks chafed, and by the looks of big brother’s stubble, I’d dare say the rest of your body looks the same way.”

Luke smiled bigger as I felt my face warm. “Gesh, Grace.” I looked away from her and saw Lauren grinning from ear to ear.

“I’ll take that as you had a nice evening. Lucky bitch,” Grace said as she reached over and grabbed a piece of bacon.

Grinning, I looked into Luke’s eyes. “I would say it was more than nice.”

“Aww,” Lauren said as she clapped and smiled. “I love y’all together!”

Grace made a gagging sound. “Ew. Gross.”

Giggling, I said, “You brought it up.”

Sighing, Grace nodded her head. “Touché, that I did. What’s the plan for today?” Grace asked, looking directly at Luke.

“I have a huge test to study for so I’ll be staying home today,” Lauren said as she jetted her lower lip out in a pout.

Luke shrugged his shoulders. “Lib, what are we doing today?”

I bit on the inside of my cheek as I attempted to control my desire. “It’s chilly out. I’m down for hanging out at home. Maybe watch a few movies.”

The smile that spread across Luke’s face was infectious. I smiled and looked at Grace. “What are you doing today?”

Grace was still staring at Luke. The look on her face confused me. It was as if she was expecting Luke to say something. Luke looked back at Grace and gave her a knowing look. “Staying home and movies sounds perfect, Lib.” Glancing back at me he winked. “We can cuddle under the covers all day.”

“That sounds like a damn good plan,” Will said from behind me. Turning I saw him and Alex walking toward the kitchen holding hands. “Alex, you down for a movie marathon?”

Alex seemed pleased with the plans Will had made for them. She walked into the kitchen and gave Luke a kiss on the cheek and then hugged Lauren. “That sounds like heaven actually. I’m so tired of studying and doing homework. I want a day of doing nothing.”

Lauren sighed. “Shit. Okay, I’m gonna study for a few hours and then I’ll join y’all.”

Luke held up his hands and stood in the middle of the kitchen. “Now hold on a minute. I don’t know if there’s going to be enough room in Lib and mines bed for all of y’all.”

Laughing I shook my head as Grace stood up. “I’m thinking the living room, big brother. Let’s do oldies!”

Everyone groaned. Grace placed her hands on her hips and tilted her head. “Oh come on you pussies. We haven’t watched an old movie in forever.” She walked around the island and put her coffee mug in the sink then rubbed her hands together as she gave a wicked smile. “I’m gonna head upstairs and see what I’ve got. I’m pretty sure I have
Bringing Up Baby.
” Grace clapped, causing everyone to jump. “How about each of us brings one movie a piece?” Grace said with a smile.

“Sounds like a good plan,” I said as I hopped off the stool and headed to make myself a plate of Lauren’s pancakes.

I peeked back over my shoulder at everyone. I couldn’t wait for today. A day of nothing, but spending time with the ones I loved so dearly.

Reaching down, I pinched my arm as I giggled.

WALKING OUT OF
my last class for the day, I let out a sigh. I was exhausted, tired and wanted to go home and sleep for the entire week of spring break. I had been busting my ass the last two and half years so that I could try and graduate early. That meant taking at least twenty-one hours or more a semester. I was beginning to regret it. Especially, if it meant I would be graduating and Libby would still be in school. Smiling, I thought about Lib’s degree. She thought she wanted to be a teacher. Then she changed it to law, then nursing. Now she was back at not knowing what she wanted to do.

Will, Colt, and I all were pursuing degrees in rangeland ecology and management. The goal was to someday take over the Mathews Cattle Ranch. Colt had his sights set on horses, but still wanted to help manage the ranch. My father and mother’s side of the business, which was mostly training horses, was where Will held the biggest interest. He had also begun to have an interest in racehorses.

My phone buzzed in my pocket. Pulling it out, I saw I had a text from Grace.

Grace
: Are you ready?

Me
: No. Scared shitless

Grace
: Why? She’s already said yes!

Me
: Still scared. What if she doesn’t like the ring?

Grace
: She will. Is everything ready to go?

Me
: Yep. One week of camping alone with the love of my life.

Grace
: HAHA the only reason y’all want to go camping is so you can keep having sex! Can’t have sex at the coast with Mom and Dad there!

Me
: You know me so well. Are you sure you want to stay at home all week alone?

Grace
: Yeah. I need some quiet time. Besides, I’m not going to be alone. Colt’s staying home. I don’t think he can take the idea of being around Lauren. Things between them are starting to heat up more and not in the good way.

Me
: Yeah, I know. I’m heading back to the house to finish packing up. Love you.

Grace
: Make sure you pack the ring! Love you the most!

Pushing my phone back into my pocket, I made my way back to the house. Thinking about this week had my heart racing. I had talked Libby into going on a camping trip to Colorado Bend State Park. It would be a week of nothing but kayaking, biking, hiking, and fishing. And it would mean we would be alone in a tent for five nights. My stomach had that crazy flutter at the thought of making love to Libby any time I wanted.

Grinning like a fool as I walked, I thought about last night. Libby knew how to make me crazy for her in bed. I would never get tired of making her come, over and over again.

SPREADING LIBBY’S LEGS
apart, I buried my face. She let out a low moan from the back of her throat as she pushed her hands through my hair and moved her hips against my face.

“Luke, I’m so close,” she whispered as I flicked my tongue against her sensitive clit.

Reaching my hand up, I began playing with her nipple. Her body began to tremble and I knew she was close. Arching her back, Libby let out a shallow moan and came hard and fast. Moving up her body I covered her in soft kisses. My mouth found hers and we soon got lost in a passionate kiss. I loved that Libby didn’t mind getting a taste of herself after oral sex. Every time she would moan, my dick would harden to an almost painful state. “I need you inside me, Luke.”

Pushing in, I tried to be slow. I wanted to enjoy the feel of Libby’s warm body. Pushing balls deep, I stayed still for a moment and just felt her. I had sworn I’d never have sex with someone and not wear a condom, but that all changed the night on the roof when Libby and I made love. Being with Libby without any barrier between us felt so right. We had both talked after that night and decided since Libby was on the pill, neither one of us wanted me to continue wrapping my stick.

“Luke, move please!” Libby whimpered as she lifted her hips to gain friction. I pulled almost all the way out, leaving only my tip inside her. Pushing back in fast and hard, Libby cried out. Slamming my lips to hers, I pulled out and pushed back in harder with each stroke. I could feel my build up and I wanted to make Libby come again. Swiveling my hips, I hit the spot that had Libby digging her nails into my back and whispering my name. I quickly grabbed her body, lifted her as she wrapped her legs around me and held her in my arms as I got ready to come. “I love you so much,” I whispered as my balls tightened and cum rushed to my dick and exploded inside her.

Libby melted in my arms as we whispered each other’s names against kiss swollen lips.
