“You okay?” I’m startled out of my trance
and caught gawking. He is now laying on top of the pillow, his arms
behind his head. It doesn’t help the matter at all, because just
when I thought I couldn’t see anything more exquisite, I am proved
wrong.

“Just admiring the view,” I admit, still
gawking as my eyes move up and down his body.

“You want a closer look?” He smiles and
motions for me to come to him with his index finger.

I climb onto the bed and lay on top of him,
my body flat on his. I can feel he is hard through the sheet
against my skin. Grabbing my face in his hands and taking my lips
he rolls me over so he is on top of me.

“You are the sexiest man I have ever seen,”
I breathe as he begins to trail kisses down my neck and over my
breasts.

“I can’t breathe when I look at you baby,
you taste so good.” He continues to kiss and lick his way back up
to my lips. He grabs my thigh and brings it up to his waist and
then I feel him at my entrance teasing me with just little thrusts
in and out again. He gives me his sexy wicked grin as he invades me
entirely sending my body into orbit. Our bodies as one we get lost
in each other until we both release leaving us breathless as we lie
in each other’s arms.

 

 

“We better get going, if we are going to
make it to the bank and the Lafayette property today.” Our
breathing has finally returned to normal. My head lying on his hard
chest as I circle my fingers around the ripples of muscles that
make up his abdomen.

“I think we should stay in bed all day.”
Luke kisses the top of my head and pulls me tighter to his side.
His hand is rubbing up and down my arm and his warm skin against
mine is making me consider his request.

“That would be good, but I am a little
excited about kicking some pompous hoity-toity ass today.”

“My feisty flower, God, I love you!” Luke
chuckles as I roll from his grip and make my way to the bathroom.
He reaches for my arm pulling me back on the bed over his lap and
squeezes my hipbone hitting a ticklish spot making me laugh.

“Stop, stop!” I gasp between laughs as he
realizes he has found my weak spot not letting up.

“Awe, my flower has a ticklish spot!” He
grins wickedly, giving me no mercy.

“Luke, please!” I squeal and he is now on
his knees so he can access me better. “Please, I’m going to pee!” I
wiggle beneath him laughing so hard I have to cross my legs. He
finally stops and lifts me up into his arms taking my lips. I’m
still giggling through our kiss and I feel him smile.

“God, you are beautiful!” He finally lets me
loose and swats my behind as I run for the bathroom having to go
even more now.

“You know, your handyman isn’t getting much
work done around here,” he yells from the bedroom. I finish my
business and start the shower.

“Should probably get a new one, huh?” I yell
as I climb in the shower and turn around as he steps in the shower
with me.

“I don’t think so. I’ve seen what you do to
the handyman,” he answers and pours somebody wash on a sponge
lathering it up and starts washing me. I just stand there as his
hands glide all over my body cleaning me. “And baby, you are mine,”
his voice is low and growly, and as he says it shivers run through
me.

“Sweet, beautiful, and mine,” he groans. As
the sponge reaches my inner thighs my core tightens, his words and
his hands making my insides throb. I reach for his shoulders to
steady myself now that my legs are weak.

His manhood is rigid and I have the urge to
taste him. It is an overwhelming feeling and I can’t stop myself. I
drop to my knees and look up at him and I can see the excitement in
his eyes. I grab hold of him and slowly put him in my mouth and
circle the tip with my tongue.

“Lilly,” he moans, the sound encourages me
as I take his length all the way. His hands in my hair, he gently
guides himself in and out, my tongue feeling the ridges and
throbbing veins. With another moan he pulls away from me and lifts
me from my knees. Wrapping one leg around his waist he enters me,
our eyes meeting before he takes my mouth.

“Oh god!” I cry as my orgasm rips through
me. Holding me up as I lose all control to hold myself, Luke
releases and I feel the hot liquid pulse into me.

“You…take…my….breath….away.” His chest is
heaving up and down against me, his face in my hair, as I try to
steady myself. He lowers my leg and holds onto my waist to make
sure I am steady before he lets me go.

“Mine,” I whisper in his ear, “all mine.” I
feel him smile against my neck.

 

 

Chapter 20

 

 

After we’ve showered and dressed we head
down for breakfast. I am wearing a white pencil skirt that ends
just above the knee and a light pink sleeveless button up shirt. I
have two buttons undone at the collar and Luke buttons one of them
before we enter the kitchen. “Mine.” He smiles, looking amazing in
his jeans and black polo shirt.

We asked Miss Finnegan to pack us a picnic
lunch and we decide to take the Aston Martin.

Jeffrey nods to us when we walk into the
garage standing with Jacob talking about something intense. They
stop talking when Jacob sees what Jeffrey was nodding at.

“Hey guys,” I greet them apprehensively
wondering what they are so intensely discussing.

“So where are you two off to today?” Jacob
asks trying to avert attention to something else.

“We’re going to check out the Lafayette
property. What are you guys talking about? You seemed pretty
intense.” I wouldn’t have asked, but they seem so keen on us not
hearing what they were saying. I know there is apprehension in my
voice.

“Nothing, we were just going over some
schematics with the security cameras. Don't be so suspicious,
Lilly!” Jacob scoffs at me rolling his eyes. This only makes me
more suspicious.

“Hey, Luke, before you leave I need to ask
your opinion on……” Jacob stops, hesitating like he is trying to
figure out how to say something, "…….on a position we have a camera
on the house,” he finishes fast and tries to look nonchalant. But I
know Jacob and he is acting weird.

“Ummm, yeah sure,” Luke hesitates for a
second looking me. “I’ll be right back baby.” He follows Jacob out
of the garage and around the house. I go to follow, but Jeffrey
stops me just short of the garage door that leads outside.

“Hey, Lilly, can I talk to you for a
second?” He says and I can’t help but think he is trying to stop me
from following the boys. I stop unwillingly and try to crook my
neck to see where they’ve gone.

“I just wanted to tell you that I’m sorry
about last night. I have no right to interfere with you and Luke’s
….umm situation.” He talks slow and seems very distracted.

“That’s okay, Jeffrey, you’re forgiven,” I
tell him fast and take off in the direction the boys went. I don’t
stop even though Jeffrey is calling after me.

They are not at the side of the house, so I
continue walking to the back. Not there either, I look around
confused. Jeffrey walks up from behind me and I look at him with
confusion, and then I see some movement out of the corner of my
eye.

There. Luke and Jacob are standing all the
way out towards Georgia’s Stone.

“What are they doing? What’s going on?” I
drill Jeffrey who’s looking everywhere but at me.

“I’m not sure….” he says, but I start
walking their way before he finishes. When I get about 100 yards
Jacob notices me. He says something to Luke who turns my way. I can
tell they are hurriedly finishing a conversation before they turn
and walk back to the house. Meeting them half way, Luke gives me a
huge awkward smile.

“Hey baby, you ready to go?” He says putting
his arm around my shoulder like everything is just fine.

“What’s going on?” I stop and demand an
answer looking from Luke to Jacob.

“Mountain Lion,” Jacob blurts suddenly. “I
think we might have a mountain lion around. I found tracks,” Jacob
says nervously, looking around the property.

“Yes, mountain lion. Sorry we didn’t want to
worry you, so we were going to try to hide it,” Luke says looking
at Jacob then back to me. I don’t buy it. I look from one to the
other and back.

“Let’s go baby,” Luke says again and starts
walking farther away from Georgia’s stone. Looking around I stand
there for a moment, but then decide I will try to get the truth out
of him in the car.

 

 

 

 

Chapter 21

 

 

“I just love this car.” Luke shifts gears
and the engine revs as he passes a car like it is standing still.
He shoots me a grin and I shudder at the sight of him.

“What were you and Jacob talking about?

“Mountain lion, we told you. I love the way
this machine responds to me.” He is trying to change the subject
and he is a shit liar.

“So why do you think I would be so scared of
mountain lion, enough to try to keep it from me?” I interrogate him
further. I really don’t like the fact that he, Jacob, and Jeffrey
are keeping secrets from me.

“It’s scary. I’m scared and I thought you
would be too. Sorry, I guess we shouldn’t have tried to do that,”
Luke stammers looking at me nervously. “Now let’s talk about
something else,” he pleads giving me his wicked grin that makes me
go weak.

He really is a bad liar, but I decide I will
let it drop for now.

We reach the bank and Luke parks the car. He
opens my door for me and takes my hand as I step out. He wraps his
arm around my waist as we walk into the bank.

“Are you ready for this?” I ask him with
excitement in my voice. I get so much pleasure from giving bullies
just what they deserve.

As we walk into the bank, two men in suits
race from their desks towards me. “Miss Sumnor, what a pleasure,”
one of them says, and they both fight for my attention. “What can
we assist you with today?” The other hurriedly asks before his
coworker can. They stand there eager for my answer.

I turn to Luke, who looks extremely annoyed,
and I am sure this is not the same treatment he received
yesterday.

“Which one?” I ask. He points to the woman
at a desk toward the back of the bank in front of the massive safe
door. She even looks like she would be one of Jane’s friends.
Snooty and uptight in her perfectly pressed dress suit, blonde hair
tied up in a neat little bun. This is going to be fun.

“I need to speak to her,” I say, pointing to
the woman and start walking her way ignoring the two suits. As we
walk away from them, their mouths are agape.

“You know how much you are turning me on
right now,” Luke says squeezing my waist.

I look up at him and smile. He can tell I am
really enjoying this already.

As we approach her desk and she looks up.
Just noticing me, she stands up immediately smoothing down her
skirt. “Miss Sumnor, what a pleasant surprise!” She says then
notices Luke standing next to me and her eyes go right back to me.
“What can I help you with today?” She asks nervously and motions
for us to have a seat, her thin lips pursed together. She even
wears her makeup like Jane. Bright pink lipstick, pink rouge on
high cheekbones, blue eye shadow and way too much mascara. The
proper southern lady, I can hear Jane saying.

“Well, Miss Dubois,” I say looking at the
name plaque on her desk, “I’ll be transferring ALL of my money to
Franklin County Bank today. Here are the account numbers.” I hand
her a piece of paper. This was the bank that was the friendliest to
Luke. He said they took the time to explain to him why he couldn’t
get the loan and counseled him on how to get a better credit score.
“If we could do this post haste please, I have things to do,” I
rudely tell her.

“All of your money, Miss Sumnor, surely you
can’t be serious?” She pleads nervously, and looks over to Luke. I
can see from the look on her face that she recognizes him from
yesterday. “If we had known, um Mr. …” she stutters not even
remembering his name.

“Mr. Hansen,” I bellow, annoyed with this
woman already. Luke squeezes my hand. I can tell he’s stifling a
laugh as she starts to squirm in her seat nervously.

“Of course,” she says as if she already knew
that and was about to say it. “If we had known Mr. Hansen was a
friend of yours we would have been more receptive to giving him a
loan,” she stammers trying to find a way out of this.

“What does it matter if he is a friend of
mine? You never even checked his credit. You went solely off his
occupation and his looks,” I come back at her. “So if someone is
not dressed in a designer suit, they don’t get considered for a
loan?” I question and not waiting for an answer, “Transfer the
money,” I repeat as I scoot to the edge of my chair.

“I assure you, Miss Sumnor, I was a very
good friend of your mother’s and I’m sure she would not want you
moving HER money from this bank,” she says smugly, looking down at
me the way Jane used to.

“Uh oh,” I hear Luke whisper and I turn to
him. He has a look on his face that says now you’ve done it
lady.

My face burns, “Well, Miss Dubois, I assure
you that I DO NOT care what YOU think Jane would do!” I snap. “I
will do whatever I want with MY money, and I want to transfer MY
money to Franklin County Bank!” I realize I’m shouting when I see
the manager of the bank running over. Miss Dubois’s mouth opens
with a look of disgust at my outburst. This makes me even
angrier.

“You make me sick with your better than thou
attitude that you have toward people you think are beneath you. I
will not have MY money in a bank that treats people this way!” I
yell getting up. I have my hands planted palm down on her desk and
I’m starring at her.

“Miss Sumnor, what a pleasure. I am Mr.
Edwards the bank manager,” he says as he reaches us. “What seems to
be the problem?” He asks anxiously looking from me to Miss
Dubois.
