Chapter Twenty
CHAPTER TWENTY
After enjoying a delicious lunch, Cade glanced at his watch then excused himself and walked across to the bar. As Karen watched him stop to speak with the waitress she assumed he was asking for the bill, but her attention was diverted by an attractive man sitting alone a few tables away. He caught her eye and smiled. Not wanting to be rude she smiled back, but only for a moment before Cade returned and reached for her hand.
“I have a surprise for you,” he said, lowering his voice.
“What kind of surprise?”
“A fun one. Come with me.”
Leaving the restaurant and returning to his truck, he drove deeper into the campgrounds and turned down a narrow track, passing a large sign reading NO ENTRY.
“Uh…are we allowed down here?”
“We are, but no-one else is.”
“I don’t understand. Where are you taking me?”
“You’ll see.”
“Don’t you have people coming to the ranch for lessons?”
“Yep, but not for a couple of hours and that’s time enough.”
“Time enough for what?”
“This,” he exclaimed, following a sharp curve and stopping in front of a small lake.
“I don’t understand.”
“This pond is man-made,” he replied with a wide grin, “ and it comes with that.”
As he pointed off to his right she spotted a cabin with a wide porch and a bench swing.
“Oh, my gosh.”
“They rent this place out by the hour as well as overnight and for longer stays. It’s very popular, especially when the weather starts warmin’ up like it’s startin’ to,” he declared, then climbed out and strode around the front of the truck and opened her door. “Come inside and take a look.”
He was grinning, and though she was sure she could see a wicked twinkle in his eye she followed him into the story-book cottage. There was a kitchenette, a comfortable lounge offering a conversation pit around a stone fireplace, and an open doorway leading into a bedroom.
“Stay here for a second,” he said as he marched away, but he was back in a flash and pulling off his clothes.
“What are you doing?” she asked as he began unbuttoning her shirt.
“What does it look like?”
Giggling, she stayed still as he continued to undress her, but when he’d finished and swept her up, he didn’t carry her into the bedroom, but outside to the pond.
“CADE! NO!” she yelled, realizing what he was about to do.
“YES!” he exclaimed, marching down to the pond and wading into the water. “Are you ready?”
“NO!”

In spite of Karen’s squeals and protests he knew she was thrilled, and after pausing for a moment to heighten the excitement, he tossed her into the water .
“You’re a beast!” she sputtered angrily, then laughed hysterically as he stepped forward and wrapped her up.
“But you love that about me!”
“I do not!” she retorted, wriggling in his hold.
“Yes you do.”
“No, no, no!”
In spite of her protests her arms moved around his neck, and she pressed her slick, naked body against his. Quickly sliding his fingers into her wet hair, he tugged it back and fervently kissed her, crushing her lips and demanding her response. Though he’d planned to have fun in the pond their carnal longing took control.
Lifting her up and carrying her back into the cabin, he didn’t care about the water dripping across the floor as he hurried into the bedroom. There were two towels on the foot of the bed, and grabbing one, he hastily dried them both off, pushed her onto the patchwork cotton comforter, then grabbed the condom packet he’d left on the nightstand earlier.
“Cade, you’re a wild man,” she whimpered as he sheathed himself and climbed on top of her.
“That’s another thing you love about me, and you haven’t seen the half of it.”
Holding her wrists above her head with one hand, he placed himself at her entrance with the other and thrust forward. As she let out a loud groan he began to stroke, forcing himself to start slowly. But when she wrapped her legs around his back and begged for more he quickened his pace. Finding his rhythm, he continued for endless minutes, then abruptly paused to press his lips against hers in a devouring kiss. Finally raising his head, he stared down at the gorgeous girl beneath him. Her breath was heavy, her chest was red, and her eyes still half-closed, she muttered something .
“What’s that, darlin’?”
“Please fuck me and never stop.”
With her mumbled plea sending the blood rushing through his veins, he straightened up, gripped her waist, and began pumping with power, angling his hardness to rub against her clit. When her cries told him she was drawing close, he paused to lean down and draw her nipples into his mouth. She moaned gratefully, then let out a cry as he pulled away, deftly flipped her over and jerked up her hips.
“Will you be a good girl when we get back to the ranch?” he demanded, suddenly slapping her cheeks.
“Yes, yes.”
“Just watch the lessons and don’t interfere!”
“Why are you—?”
“An ounce of prevention,” he replied, cutting her off, then pushed back into her slick passage. “Come when you feel it.”
“Ooh, thank you.”
But he was already thrusting, relishing the feel of her wet, tight warmth and gazing at her lightly reddened skin.
“Soon I’ll tie you up and spank you real hard.”
His grunted warning had been a veiled query.
When she let out a plaintive cry and bucked back at him, he had his answer. She wanted to travel the unknown road of pleasure and pain.
“But I’ll do other things too,” he continued.
“Please—yes—everything.”
Her breathless remark sent joy pulsing through his body.
For years he’d been searching for the one .
A woman who wanted to explore the dark forbidden.
Spurred on, he pummeled her pussy until she let out an exultant wail. As she exploded beneath him, he was swept up by his own climatic convulsions, and relished the sparkling spasms until they waned and he collapsed beside her.
