CHAPTER FOUR

Luca

One look and she caught me in her web.

One touch and she spun me all around.

One kiss and I couldn’t let go.

And tonight, I wasn’t letting her go without one.

I dipped my head low and brought my mouth to hers, not hesitating to cover it with my own.

I wanted her to know, no needed her to know, that she was mine and there was no going back.

We kissed and kissed under the yellow moonlight and when we broke apart, both of us panting and Elora clutching my shirt, silence fell between us as our breaths evened out and slowed.

I kissed her softly once more and whispered, “Goodnight.” before getting into my truck, watching her climb safely into her car, and drove home, realizing after our entire night together, I never got her number. Good thing she wasn’t far.

Sleep didn’t bless me that night even after jerking off to the thought of her again and again, as if I were seventeen again and full of raging hormones.

When my alarm went off at seven, my eyes barely cracked open, but somehow, I poured coffee down my throat.

After a quick shower, I ran out the door and drove to Appleridge Sweets, scoring a few of the apple cinnamon muffins.

When I sat in the break room at Elora’s shop yesterday, I saw the container with the label and figured it was the orgasmic muffins Gracie had raved about.

With the muffins secured, I drove to her shop. While it wasn’t open yet, she parked her car in the same spot as yesterday, confirming what I hoped- she was here. With coffee and muffins in hand, I walked over to the front door and tried the handle. It was locked this time. Good, she remembered.

I knocked and waited, hearing her footsteps a few moments later. When she opened the door, her mouth dropped open. “Walker! I didn’t expect to see you so early.”

“I know, I’m sorry. I couldn’t wait. But I brought lots of treats.” I held up the box and grinned. “Your favorite muffins!”

Elora gasped. “How did you know?” she waved me inside and I walked through the door, closing it behind me.

“A true gentleman doesn’t tell his secrets.” I said as I followed behind her to the break room in the back.

“So, is that why you came by? To bring me muffins?”

“Yes. And to...I don’t know…hang out together? Is that okay?”

“But I thought you said you hate Halloween.”

“It’s growing on me.”

Elora snickered. “No way.”

“Well, maybe it will if I get to spend the day here with you. You know, considering you have a lot of work to do if you think you’re going to get me to like Halloween.” I placed the muffins and coffees down on the table.

“Don’t lie, you already like it.” She teased. “I planted the seeds, my friend.”

“If it means getting to spend the day with you, you can plant anything you want.”

“Anything? Are you sure about that?”

“Mmhmm,” I mumbled before grabbing her waist and pulling her body against mine. Her soft curves felt so nice against my hard, rough exterior, and I never wanted to let her go. Ever. “And there’s something I have in mind that I think you might like…”

“Okay, but for now, you need to behave yourself.”

“Not possible.” I kissed her lips, then moved my way down her jawline as she became nothing more than putty in my hand.

She spun out of my grasp and laughed when she landed on the opposite side of the table. “I’ve got a lot to do. So how about you help me so we can get done faster?”

“Who could say no to that?”

I had more fun today than any other day in my life.

Who knew a little pop-up shop could be so much fun?

Especially a Halloween one. But tonight, I put together a little surprise.

So, after she closed the place for the night, we grabbed a bite to eat, and I drove us over to a pumpkin patch which turned into a scary Halloween event at night.

“You down for the haunted corn maze?”

“Are you seriously asking me that right now? Last one, there is a rotten egg!” Elora yelled playfully as she took off running towards the entrance.

I caught up with her easily and scooped her into my arms before setting her down gently beside me. I offered her my arm, which she gladly took and off we went into the dark corn maze, jump scares lurking in every corner.

We screamed and laughed, dodged and ducked, and got totally spooked out a few times before finally exiting the maze, our sides hurting. What had I been missing all these years? A lot of fun apparently.

With the night ending, I didn’t want to let her go yet. So, I took the biggest chance of all. I asked her to come home with me.

“Please spend the night with me.”

Elora hesitated, and my nerves kicked into high gear. “I think you’ve proven yourself enough. Of course, I’ll spend the night with you, Walker. Now kiss me.” She pulled on my shirt and tugged me closer towards hers, our lips meeting once again.

This time, in plain sight, for all the town to see, not a single care in the world.

Elora was mine.

Now it was time to take her home and really claim her as mine.

The drive home couldn’t have gone any slower, though my cabin was only minutes up the mountain.

I carried her inside and didn’t stop until we reached my bedroom. I couldn’t wait much longer before I exploded. I’d never needed anyone as badly as I needed her.

Elora giggled, her cheeks pink, as she looked at me shyly, unable to hold my eye contact for long.

Her cute innocence made my dark harder.

I set her down gently next to my bed, my dick straining beneath my jeans, the stiff material rubbing against it as I straightened my back.

She looked so young and innocent, and I wondered how much experience she had. Or maybe I was too caught up in the moment, and my fantasies were taking over. She was a grown woman, of course she knew what she was doing.

“Have you ever touched yourself?” I asked, my voice hoarse.

Elora’s chest flushed red, the color creeping up her neck and turning me on. She shrugged her shoulders and looked the other way.

I gently turned her head back towards mine. “Look at me, Elora. Have you ever touched yourself?” I growled the words, no mistaking my tone now. She turned me the fuck on.

Just the thought of her, spread out in her bed, her hand between her legs, her fingers deep inside her pussy, and I wanted to fuck her silly.

“No.” She whispered.

“No? Not at all?”

She shook her head. “I’ve never…I’ve never…” Her voice trailed off, and I was ready to lose my damn man. Don’t tell me she’s a…

“I’ve never had sex before.” Elora blurted out, and she darted her eyes away again.

I ran a hand over my face and groaned loudly. “You mean you’re a virgin?”

Elora nodded.

“Oh, my fucking God, Elora.” I groaned. “Buckle up. It’s gonna be a wild ride.”
