Ride Me Cowboy #5 (The Cowboy Romance Series - Book #5) (8 page)

It still amazes me how much I have come to like this.
It’s fast and loud and wild, which are things that I’ve always loved. Being in
the crowd was like being at a club on a Saturday night in a way, people were
just dressed differently. The crowd is always so happy to be there and people
seem proud to be a part of this. I can understand that. I’m proud to be a part
of it, as well. Mark was definitely right when he first described it to me –
the rodeo is not just an event, it’s not just a job, it’s a way of life.

When I heard his name announced overhead, I reached
for Mom’s hand. I was trembling as I waited and I could feel that Mom was
trembling, as well. It was nice to have a fiancé that my mother already adored.
It was also nice to call him my fiancé…I loved that.

Mark’s bull’s name was Cyclone Sal. I’m assuming that
meant he was a twisty one. I said my silent prayer for him just as the chute
came open and they came flying out. Cyclone did a few spins and at one point it
looked like Mark was sliding off to the right. Mom and I were on our feet now,
screaming with the rest of the crowd for him to stay on. The bull wasn’t having
any luck getting him off by spinning, so he tried some wild bucking. Mark’s
form stayed perfect and the crowd was going wild. The count-down in my head
started at five seconds…six…seven…eight! Mark did it! I knew he could do it!
Mom and I hugged and jumped up and down screaming. When the rest of the riders
finished, Mark was the winner of the night. The announcer said he won nineteen
thousand dollars and his score was 88.5.

After everyone had filed out of the arena, Mom and I
were able to use our passes to get back to see him. As soon as he saw us, his
face broke out into a wide grin. I raced towards him and flung myself into his
arms. I kissed his face all over and told him how proud of him I am.

“Thank you, baby. I still have nine nights to go,” he
said.

“I have no doubts you’ll ride every one of those
bulls…”

Turns out, I was almost right. He got thrown off at
six seconds on his eighth ride. The night the scores and the money were tallied
was tense. It was going to be a really close one between Mark and a cowboy from
Montana. Mom and I clutched each other’s hands so tightly that we cut the
circulation off as we waited. Finally, the announcer called Mark’s name and
announced him as the new “NFR champion bull-rider!” He was presented with his
gold belt-buckle and his check. There was a big ceremony and a big party
afterwards. The party that mattered to me most came much later when we were
alone in our room. Mark’s rodeo days were over, but our life together was just
beginning.

MARK

I arranged in advance for a candlelight dinner to be
set up in mine and Lexi’s room after the final night of the rodeo. I was
praying I was going to win for a lot of reasons. One of the most important ones
was that I was really looking forward to celebrating with her. When we finally
escaped the after party and sent Lydia off to her hotel in a cab, we went
upstairs and Lexi squealed when I opened the door. The staff at the hotel had
done a great job. They sat up the linen-covered table in the middle of the room
and a red candle was burning at the center of it. There were two silver dishes
on top and a magnum of champagne chilling off to the side. Red rose petals had
been scattered across the floor and the top of the bed. The whole place smelled
like a flower garden.

“I can’t believe you did this! It’s amazing. I love
it!” she said, throwing her arms around me.

“I’m glad,” I told her. “How about we eat and then
take a long, hot bath.”

“That sounds amazing!” she said. “I’m covered in
dirt.” I laughed. I didn’t tell her, but even her pretty face was coated with
it. We both washed up and ate. I was starving and the dinner was fantastic.
Afterwards, we shared a few chocolate-covered strawberries and then I picked up
the champagne and the two flutes and took them into the bathroom. I sat them on
the side of the big Jacuzzi tub and turned on the water. As it filled, I poured
in a generous amount of bubbles I’d also asked the staff to leave. I’d been
looking forward to this all day.

“Can I undress you?” I asked her. She smiled and held
up her arms. I pulled off her blouse and kissed her neck as I tossed it aside.
Then I reached behind her and unhooked her bra. I loved watching her gorgeous
breasts spill out when I did that. I leaned down and gave each one of them a
kiss, as well. Then I unfastened her jeans and slid them down off of her slim
hips and over her long, sexy legs. Lastly, I took off her pretty satin panties
and she was standing in front of me in all her glory. I just looked at her for
a minute; sometimes it was hard for me to believe that she’s mine.

I reached in to turn off the water and flip on the
jets. Then I took her hand and helped her in.

“Oh my goodness,” she said, lying back with her feet
facing the faucet. “This feels amazing.”

I smiled at her and stripped my clothes off as fast as
I could. I stepped in so that I was behind her and let my body slide down so my
legs framed her on either side. She wiggled into my chest with her back and my
semi-erect cock began to grow even harder. She lay down against me, and I
wrapped my arms around her and hugged her into me. Then I reached over and
poured two flutes of the champagne and handed her one.

I downed mine and while she sipped hers, I let my
mouth trail along the sexy curve of her shoulder and neck. She felt like she
was melting into me. When she finished her champagne, she sat her glass down
outside of the tub and reached for something else.

“You brought the strawberries!”

“Yes,” she said. “They were too delicious; I didn’t
want them to go to waste.” She picked one up and dipped it in a silver bowl of
cream on the tray. She turned her head to the side so I could see her wrap her
lips around it and suck off the cream. I felt a flash of heat run through my
core and I shuddered. I also twitched, and she felt it.

“
Mmm
,” she said, rubbing
back against me. She held the strawberry up to my lips then and I took a bite.
She popped the rest in her mouth and after we’d both swallowed, she turned
around and placed her mouth over mine and we shared a hot, sweet, strawberry
flavored kiss. She turned back around and settled against me again and said,

“Do you think it will always be like this?”

“Probably not after we have all
them
kids,” I said with a laugh. She looked back at
me again and said,

“How many were you planning on having, exactly?”

“Four or five, at least…”

She gave me an incredulous look and I laughed. “You
better be kidding, mister!”

Kissing her on the bridge of her nose I said, “We
don’t have to make that many, as long as you let me keep practicing.”

She wiggled back into me again and said, “Practice
away.” I picked up her long hair and laid it over to one side of her neck and
then I began to place gentle kisses all across the other side. She moaned. “I
love that.”

“Sometimes, Lexi…I feel like I’m dreaming when I’m
with you.”

“I feel the same way. I never thought I could feel so
strongly about anyone. I honestly though my mother had ruined me and I’d never
be able to trust enough to love someone so much.”

“I’m so glad you were wrong about that,” I told her,
trailing kisses down the sides of her face.

“Me, too. Did I tell you how proud I am of you…NFR
Champion?”

“Not in the past hour,” I said.

“Oh well, we can’t have that. I’m so proud of you.”

“Thank you. That means more to me than anything.” She
turned back towards me and locked her lips on mine for another passionate kiss.
I love kissing her. I could literally do it all night and be satisfied. Of
course I say that, and then as we kissed I moved my hands up to her breasts and
squeezed. I loved those, too. They’re perfect. I released them and let my
fingers trail down her arms and across the tops of her thighs. I love the way
she mewls when I touch her and wiggles around. I love knowing that I turn her
on. I love feeling the goosebumps accumulate along my path. I put my mouth back
on her neck and let my tongue play against her skin.

“Oh, Mark, that feels so good.”

I kept doing it, all along her neck and then her
shoulders as I once again found her breasts and started kneading them with my
fingers.

“
Mmm
!” She had her eyes
closed and her body as tightly against mine as she could as she moaned. “You’re
so good, baby.”

I took my mouth off of her sweet skin long enough to
say, “It’s because you’re so hot.” I started tweaking and pulling on her
nipples then, and she began to slowly rock her hips against me. My hard cock
was pressed into her back and growing harder by the second. I took one hand off
of one of her breasts and moved it down between her legs, letting it gently
graze along the top of her slit. She cried out and pressed back into me as she
arched her back and lifted her hips up. I touched her harder and let my fingers
find her clit. I began to massage it, and I could feel her pussy get wetter,
even though we were sitting in the water. It was a soft, velvety fluid and it
felt good on my fingers.

I switched my angle and pressed the whole palm of my
hand against her. She whimpered again as I began to grind it against her clit.
She was moving up and down now, rubbing herself on me. I did that for a while
until I thought she was almost ready to cum and then I took my two fingers and
slid them into her tight, hot wetness. I moved my thumb up so it was putting
pressure on her clit as my fingers moved in and out of her in a rhythmic motion.
She was panting, thrusting, moaning out my name when I stopped and took my hand
away.

“Oh…why did you stop?” She almost sounded like she was
going to cry and I felt bad.

I didn’t answer her. Instead I put my mouth back on
her neck and took her by the hips and lifted her up. She grabbed the sides of
the tub and as I held up my hard cock, she slid herself down onto it.

“Lexi…Oh, baby…” She felt so good. She’s so warm and
wet and tight.

I felt her shiver and after she had taken me all the
way in, I lifted my knees up a bit and draped her legs over them. I put my hand
back on her clit, and as I rubbed it and she moved up and down on top of me,
she began to whimper and moan and gasp loudly.

“Mark! Oh, baby!
Mmm
! God!”

I thrust up into her and she thrust down. As we became
more urgent and frantic, water started sloshing over the sides of the tub. She
was pressing back hard into me as we matched our thrusts.

"Oh, Mark! I’m
cumming
,
baby! Oh God!” She screamed it out…it’s a good thing we’re in sin city so no
one called the cops. I put my hands on her waist and pushed her down hard on me
and thrust up forcefully until I felt her erupt in a powerful orgasm. My own
crashed through me and erupted at the same time. It was fucking awesome. After
we both finished, we stopped moving and just lay there and tried to catch our
breath. My arms were still wrapped tightly around her and it was so relaxing
that I wanted to stay like this forever.

Just as I had that thought she said, “I want to stay
like this forever.” I laughed and she said, “What?”

“I think we are definitely in sync,” I told her. “I
love you, my sexy fiancée.”

“I love you too, bull-riding champion. So very much.”
