Lawless (Cowboys on the Edge Book 5) Read online

  She beckoned him with a curl of her finger.

  He shook his head. “I didn’t bring protection,” he said, his voice rasping like sandpaper.

  “What a damn shame,” she whispered. Then she reached and slid open the drawer in the tiny nightstand beside the bed and pulled out a box. “Good thing I’m a planner,” she said.

  “Do we need to check the expiration date?”

  She gave a dirty chuckle. “Think I always keep a box handy? Ty, I bought these this morning on my way here.”

  His Adam’s apple dipped when he swallowed. “You’ve been planning this all along?”

  “Nope,” she said coming closer and reaching out a finger to circle one small flat nipple. “I wasn’t planning on anything, but I was hoping…” She ran her finger down the center of his abdomen, liking the way his muscles jerked as she neared the open vee of his pants. “Don’t bother stripping,” she said, clenching her thighs. “I want this first time to be fast.” She glanced up into his face. “And now.”

  “Get out a rubber,” he ground out and shoved his jeans downward.

  His cock distracted her, bounding outward. Lord, he hadn’t been exaggerating. His dick was long and thick—and fully aroused.

  “Ruby!”

  She blinked and tore at the box, spilling condoms on the floor, but capturing one which she held up for him.

  Watching him tear the packet then roll the thin sheath down his length was all the foreplay she needed. Fluid already wet her sex.

  She glanced back at the bed then gasped when strong hands lifted her off her feet. She flung out her arms to grab his shoulders and wrapped her legs around his hips. With a push against his solid shoulders, she lifted herself just enough for him to get his cock beneath her. The first nudge against her folds had her sucking in a deep breath.

  “You’re wet, Ruby Tackett,” he drawled, pulling back his hips to slide his cockhead along her slit before flexing again until she felt the pressure at her entrance.

  “What are you waiting for?” she whispered.

  “I’m a lot of things, ma’am, but I’m never rude to a lady.”

  His voice was rough, his expression tense, but there was a hint of a smile in the curve of his mouth.

  “Rude?” she asked breathily.

  He blew out a deep breath. “Baby, we haven’t kissed.”

  She rolled her eyes and would have bounced on his dick to get it inside, but his grip on her ass was hard. He was being serious. “You can make it up to me later,” she gritted out.

  “I don’t usually let my dick take the lead, but when you turned to face me…you blew every thought of what I should do right out of my mind.”

  “Like my tits, huh?” she said, rubbing them on his chest.

  “I’ve never seen anything quite like them. Not outside a magazine, anyway.”

  She let go of his shoulders and lifted her boobs, bouncing them on her palms. “Are these all you like?”

  “Never noticed how trim your waist is, but your ass is nearly as stellar as your tits.”

  She wrinkled her nose. “It jiggles too much.”

  “Beg to differ. It jiggles just right,” he said as he loosened his grip on one globe and gave it a swat.

  Ruby was pretty sure her face was on fire she was so hot. “Okay, so can we get that kiss over with?”

  The corners of his mouth twitched, and he flexed again, pushing until just the head was inside.

  Her pussy tightened around him, and more fluid drenched her channel. “Dammit…that kiss?”

  Ty’s head bent towards hers. His expression was fierce, his jaw tight.

  Ruby lightly placed her fingers on his cheeks and urged him lower. The moment their lips touched, he gripped her ass and thrust deep inside her.

  Her mouth opened on a gasp, and he swept his tongue inside, stroking hers to the same rhythm as his cock sliding in and out of her body. The sensation of him filling her was incredible—so much pressure, so much heat. She gripped his hair, pulling hard. He turned and pushed her back against the wall in the corridor, pinning her there, freeing his hands to roam her sides and then her breasts.

  The moment his palms cupped her breasts, she broke the kiss and leaned her head against the wall behind her. “Yes,” she whispered. When he pinched her nipples, she sucked in a deep breath and gave a little shout, “Yes!”

  She pushed on his shoulders, raising and lowering herself, fucking herself on his cock. Her body undulated; her mind wandered in the heat, sparks of color lighting behind her closed lids as she began to orgasm.

  He let go of her breasts, and his fingers bit into her hips as his motions quickened. Soon, he was pounding inside her, and she rose higher, at last giving a shout as pleasure washed over her.

  He thrust again and held still inside her. She felt her inner walls spasming around him, felt the pulsing of his cock as semen filled the condom he wore.

  At last, they held each other, both their bodies trembling.

  “You better let me down before we both fall,” she said in his ear.

  He shook his head. “A minute. Just as little longer,” he said, leaning into her.

  With her hands soothing his sweaty back, she waited until he gave a nod then eased away, far enough she could lower her legs. When he pulled free, she slid downward, until her feet were once again on the floor.

  He glanced down at himself and chuckled. His jeans had sagged to midthigh.

  Ruby went to her knees and helped him off with his boots then reached up to drag his pants the rest of the way down.

  With her face beside his waning cock, she watched as he removed the condom and tied a knot in it. She gestured toward a trash can, and he tossed it.

  Unable to resist, she cupped his dick and stroked his length.

  “We’ll be up pretty early in the morning,” he said in a warning tone.

  “Oh, honey, you’ll be up sooner than that,” she murmured then took him in her mouth.

  Chapter 4

  Ty whistled as he carried the last of the booth’s panels to Lennie’s truck. The time was nearing ten PM. The bikers had left after the last band played due to the rules laid out by the mayor, which had specified that the campground had to be emptied so vendors could be gone by midnight.

  The day had been a mellow one—no altercations, just good music, good food, plenty of souvenirs to purchase, and people roaming the grounds to look at and talk about bikes. The Veterans Posse Club had signed up new members, and group trips had been planned—one to New Mexico in the early spring. Ty hoped to ask one particular lady to accompany him on that one.

  He’d been busy making all sorts of plans in his mind that involved a certain curvy redhead. He only hoped she was as eager to continue where they’d left off in the early morning hours, although he wouldn’t blame her a bit if she was ready to head straight to bed once she was home. He’d worn her out and felt pretty proud of himself for that fact. Watching her yawn prettily throughout the day or the way she’d settled gingerly on a hard stool had been mighty satisfying.

  “You’ve been wearin’ that shit-eatin’ grin all damn day.”

  Ty gave Ed a glare but couldn’t hold it long. Ed had hung around to help Ruby break down her booth. Ty rubbed his jaw and gave Ed a wink. “Guess I have.”

  “Glad you’re happy, man. Wish’t I was that damn happy.”

  “I’ll be happy when I can get a shower in a stall where I don’t rap my elbows on the walls and can slip into my fuzzy slippers,” Ruby said as she walked up beside Ty. She gave him a sideways glance. “I think we’re done here. Lennie’s going to take the trailer with the booth back to the bar to put it in storage in the back.”

  “Will you need help tomorrow unloading the camper?” Ty asked.

  “I’ll have my staff do that for me.”

  “Sure there’s not something I can help you with?”

  Ed cleared his throat. “Think that’s my cue to head on back to town. See ya both around.”

  Ty a
nd Ruby waved as the man headed to his bike. With a loud roar, Ed departed and Lennie pulled away, leaving Ty standing beside the camper trailer with Ruby.

  “I enjoyed spending time with you,” Ty said. “Not just last night.”

  “I did, too, deputy.”

  Ty drew a deep breath. “Then…can I take you out?”

  “Like a real date?” she said, tilting her head and fluttering her eyelashes.

  Ty chuckled. “Yeah. Whatever you’d like to do.”

  The spotlights illuminating the campground flickered out.

  “Think that’s our cue to get the hell out of here,” he murmured.

  “I have to go back to the bar and unhitch this trailer.”

  “Sounds like something you might need help with.”

  She walked her fingers up his chest. “Only if you’re not busy. I know your shift starts tomorrow, and you have to be up early.”

  “Oh, I think I’ll be up earlier than that.”

  Her backside swayed as she walked to her pickup.

  As he climbed onto his bike, Ty knew he’d be thanking the sheriff for his punishment. Hell, he’d buy the morning shift’s donuts.

  * * *

  When his phone’s alarm chimed around four AM, Ty quickly reached sideways to pick it up from Ruby’s nightstand to silence it. He settled back and looked down at Ruby whose body was curved against his side. Her cheek rested on his chest, and he pondered how he’d slip from under her without waking her up.

  A warm hand slid under the covers and wrapped around his shaft.

  And just that fast, his plans changed.

  “You in a hurry?” she whispered.

  “I’ve got a little time.” Not really, but he did have a uniform in his locker at the station, so he could skip going back to his place altogether—for the right incentive.

  Her hand began to stroke his cock, and Ty let out a deep satisfied sigh. “I like that.”

  When she let go then disappeared beneath the covers, he smiled, enjoying the feeling of his cock beginning to stiffen as she kissed and licked her way down his body. Yeah, he could get used to this really fast—waking up to a warm, lusty woman. That she was smart and independent made her all that more attractive. He’d had little experience with women like that.

  Why that was so stumped him. The women in his past had been clingy and quick to turn possessive. As soon as he’d felt the noose tighten, he’d been out the door. He hadn’t been ready for entanglements, but this time, he thought he might like a few to complicate his life. Especially if the woman had curves for miles and fiery red hair.

  Her mouth closed around him, and Ty thrust his fingers in those glorious curls to control the depth and speed of her sexy bobs.

  When he was getting a little worried he might not be able to hold back to give her what she needed, he pulled on her hair, forcing her to scoot up his body.

  In the light shining from the bathroom, he made out the pout of her lower lip. “Come here,” he said, opening his arms.

  She fell against his chest, and he held her there. “I like feeling your tits against my skin.”

  She snorted. “You have the smoothest lines.”

  He squeezed a butt cheek. “I know I don’t. But I do know what I like. I like you, Ruby.”

  Her lips pursed. “You like more than my tits?”

  “Your ass is right up there,” he said, sliding his hands over the soft, smooth mounds.

  “Bet you like something else, too,” she whispered while pulsing her lower belly against him.

  “I can’t lie. I do like your pussy.”

  She shivered. “Ooh, that word makes me hot.”

  “Know what I like best?” he said softly.

  “What’s left?” She arched a brow. “Tell me you’re not into toes.”

  He grinned. “I like that you are your own woman. That you’re smart and competent.”

  “Do you like it when I tell you what to do?” she asked, her gaze leaving his to follow her finger as she toyed with his nipple.

  “My dick perks up when you give anyone orders. You have this look, all sharp-eyed and scanning a crowd—like you can tell when trouble’s about to erupt. And when your eyebrows lower,” he said smoothing a finger over one dark brow, “all I want to do is bury myself inside you.”

  “Deputy, sounds like you wouldn’t mind a woman being in charge.”

  “Sometimes, but only you, Ruby. Whatever you want.” And he realized he wasn’t playing. It was true. Now, the thought of her calling the shots had his balls drawing up tight.

  Ruby pushed up from his chest. Her thighs were spread across his lower belly, and he felt moisture leak onto his skin. She was as turned on by the idea as he was.

  And the view from where he was laying couldn’t be better.

  Her skin was pale and creamy. The tips of her lush breasts were distended and a deep rosy brown. Her belly was soft and a little rounded, completely feminine, and her red-brown ruff was neatly trimmed.

  Ruby lightly slapped his cheek then forked her fingers and pointed them at her eyes. “I’m right here, Deputy Nolan.”

  “Yes, ma’am,” he said, his mouth twitching at her stern tone while he enjoyed the light of devilment in her eyes.

  She lifted one of her breasts and stroked her thumb over the tip. “I like them sucked then chewed.”

  His eyebrows rose. “Chewed?”

  “Sucked…then chewed,” she said slowly, her gaze narrowing.

  He pressed his lips together and nodded.

  She scooted up his body again then held up her breast and leaned toward him, offering it to his mouth.

  Ty didn’t need to be told twice. He opened and sucked the nipple into his mouth, teasing it with his tongue then drawing hard while watching her expression.

  Her mouth opened, and her eyelids fluttered downward. Below, her pussy grew damper.

  He let her nipple go with a loud pop then quickly caught the tip between his teeth.

  Her gasp was sharp, but she arched her back, pressing harder against his mouth, so he turned his cheek and began gently “chewing” on the tip with his back molars, being careful to gauge her pleasure by the way her fingers dug into his shoulder.

  “The other!”

  Quickly, he moved across her chest and began sucking then chewing on the hard tip while he tweaked the one he’d left with hard twists of his fingers. Soon, she was squirming on his belly, her pussy grinding on him.

  “Fuck, I can almost come like this,” she whispered.

  But he wanted to be inside her when that happened, so he opened his mouth wide and sucked in as much of her mound as he could and smoothed the flat of his tongue on the hot, turgid tip.

  Ruby lifted her hips, and her hand closed around his shaft.

  He pulled back. “Condom.”

  They both dove for the box on the nightstand.

  It went sailing.

  Ty shoved her off his belly and rolled to his feet, searching the floor for the box. When he found it, he shook a packet onto his palm then tore the plastic, tossed the wrapper over his shoulder, and quickly rolled the condom down his shaft. When he glanced back to the bed, it was to find Ruby on her hands and knees, her ass pointing his way. She held back her hair when she glanced behind her. “Inside, now.”

  “Yes, ma’am,” he said, pumping his fist on his cock once before climbing back onto the mattress.

  Holding her hips, he placed himself against her folds and nudged to slip between them. Then taking a deep breath, he pushed all the way inside, not stopping until every inch was enclosed in her slick heat.

  “Feels so good,” she whispered, dropping to her elbows and wagging her ass. The movements pulled on his cock, and he didn’t need any further encouragement to begin thrusting inside her.

  He gave her long, slow glides then shorter, sharper strokes. When her back sank and her bottom tilted just right, he began to hammer faster, liking the wet sounds and slaps they made together.

  She widened her
knees, lowering her body, and now he had to angle downward. So, he came closer and dropped to his hands, fucking her faster and faster.

  “Touch yourself,” he gritted out.

  When she came, she let go a thin wail and flung back her head. He followed with a shout, his movements jerking against her as his balls exploded.

  He fell against her, and they both lay on the mattress, panting hard. He turned his face and nuzzled into the corner of her neck. “Need to shower.”

  “I know. You have to get to work.”

  “Think about where you want to go tonight.”

  She nodded.

  When he pulled free and climbed off her, she lay exactly as he left her. That image of her spread legs and rounded, humped bottom would sustain him through the day.

  “That’s the last of it,” Lennie said, wiping sweat from his brow.

  Ruby locked the gate to the storage area and pocketed the key. “You enjoy your time off,” she said. “And thanks for your help. Your next check will contain a little something extra.”

  He smiled and gave her a little wave as he walked away. “You always take good care of us. You get some rest, too.”

  “Rest is the last thing I want,” she said under her breath. She had a date that night.

  The rest of the day flew by. Considering how little sleep she’d gotten the past couple of days, she felt light and happy. Uplifted, even.

  Shaking her head, she found herself smiling again, at nothing. All because a handsome man had paid her attention. Ruby paused.

  Why on earth was she making this into a bigger thing than it was? Her happiness didn’t depend on any man. She was her own woman. Responsible for a dozen more livelihoods and a successful business. Having a man in her life, a temporary thing at best, did not determine her state of mind. With her shoulders held a little stiffer, she marched through the rest of her day, deliberately keeping her thoughts away from the time she’d spent in bed with the man who’d taken up residence in her head.

  Sure, he was good-looking. Damn fine, actually. With a body a sculptor would itch to preserve in stone and with manly parts that would make any woman sigh. She’d used his “parts” for her pleasure. Maybe there was even some little bit of affection—because he had treated her well, seeing to her pleasure before taking his.
