Book Excerpt: PG13
“Kelly, honey…” He hesitated
because he didn’t want to fight with her, especially before she went into
Kansas City for another long day of work.
“Don’t ‘Kelly,
honey,’ me!” She stepped back into the closet. “We are not discussing this
again! I’m not doing this to trample on your ego, cowboy. This isn’t about you.
It’s about me.”
After three years
of marriage, he had a pretty good handle on his wife. She liked her
independence and he gave her as much as possible. She spoke her mind without
much thought first, which he also tolerated for the most part. She was easily
twice as smart as him in many ways, which he admired. Her biggest flaw was once
she made a decision, she stuck to it, even if that decision proved to be a bad
one. Like this job. He was tired of watching her come home exhausted from the
tension of a frustrating day at the office. He worried about her on the hour
drive back to the ranch.
“You’re wrong.” He
set the steaming cup of coffee on the dresser next to the door. “This is about
both of us. You’re my wife, dammit. It’s my job to watch out for you, to step
in when you’re—”
“Watch it, macho
boy!” She stormed out of the closet and tossed a skirt and blouse on the
rumpled bed. Her brown eyes sparked with fire as she faced him. “I don’t have
time for you to go all Man in Charge on me this morning. I still need to take a
shower and get dressed.”
He curled his
hands into fists at his sides. She’s tired. She’s stressed. But, damn, so am I!
“Watch yourself. You’re pushing this old boy right to his limits.”
Her eyes continued
to flash with irritation, her posture rigid. Then slowly she seemed to go limp.
Her lower lip quivered. Tears glimmered in those weary eyes. All of the spit
and fire went right out of her. “James,” she whispered.
What the hell? Her
sudden change surprised him as much as it worried him. He moved in front of
her, his irritation gone. He wrapped his arms around her and clutched her to
him. He could stand a lot of rough things in life, but the sight of his woman
in tears gut punched him. Tears after he spanked her for one reason or another
was different, those he expected and understood. For any other reason, though,
they unmanned him, made him feel helpless.
“Baby, I’m sorry.”
He stroked her bare back, smoothed his hand over the wavy mass of long dark
hair. Its silkiness, its sweet scent always got to him. But not anymore than
the feel of her much smaller body in only lacy bra and panties did. His
erection beneath his jeans immediately pressed between them. “It’ll be okay.
I’ll make it okay.” How, he didn’t know.
She snuggled even
closer, trembling. “I don’t deserve you.”
