Free Secret Confessions: Down & Dusty — Maree by Elizabeth Dunk Page B

bra. ‘If I’d known this was what you wore under your shirts, I’d have found a way to get your clothes off you sooner.’
    Maree blushed. Normally, she wore very sensible bras, but as part of her seduction plan, she’d put on the only sexy bra and panties she owned. Black silk and lace. She’d had to wear a black blouse to hide it from the children.
    ‘This is just for today. Just for you.’
    Brad’s eyes blazed. ‘What a woman.’ He gave her a deep kiss that ended much too quickly, then he went to her trousers. Maree kicked off her shoes and let him pull the black linen down.
    ‘Very, very nice.’ He lightly drew his finger along the top of the black lace thong. So close to where she needed him to touch her, yet so far away.
    He stepped back and looked her up and down. ‘I want to remember this. How beautiful you are. How sexy and strong and hot.’
    ‘Don’t take too long,’ Maree said. ‘I need you.’
    Brad grinned. ‘I learned as a boy to always obey the teacher.’ He drew circles in the air. ‘Turn around.’
    Maree did. She shook, both from desire and the anticipation of his touch. A shiver ran over her at the brush of his fingers as he undid her bra. He slowly pushed it off her shoulders and down her arms until it fell, his fingertips a sizzling brand against her skin. Brad smoothed his palms back up her arms, across her shoulders, down her back, before reaching around and cupping her breasts.
    Maree moaned and leaned back against him. His hands were rough against her sensitive skin, and she felt every movement as he explored, learning her curves before his fingers played with her nipples. Pleasure zinged through her body.
    ‘Beautiful,’ he murmured in her ear and Maree felt it. For the first time in ages, she felt beautiful. Sexy. Desirable.
    Brad’s hands slid down her body, hooking her panties and dragging them down her legs. The fresh air, nakedness, made Maree’s head light.
    ‘Gorgeous arse.’ Brad kissed it and Maree trembled. The tenderness of his lovemaking was both relaxing and inflaming. Every part of her that he touched, worshipped, was being declared his. ‘Now, about you saying you were ready for me …’
    His hand moved between her legs and Maree widened her stance. This. This was what she wanted. What she needed. What she craved.
    Brad slid his fingertip over the top of her pussy and Maree closed her eyes, hoping her legs could continue to hold her. Such a simple touch, and yet it seduced every part of her.
    One finger slipped inside. Her entire body quivered. Yes, that. And so much more.
    ‘Mmm. Nice and wet. But I think if we tried, we could do better. Lie down on the pillows.’
    Maree was glad to follow his instructions. She wasn’t sure she could stand much longer. She relaxed onto the pillows and smiled up at him. Her hot, sexy cowboy, making her body sing like it had never done before.
    Brad stood at her feet. His gaze moved over her slowly. Reverent, if it weren’t for the blazing fire in his eyes. ‘So beautiful. You know that pretty much every guy in Milpinyani Springs would like to be here right now.’
    ‘Really?’ Maree quite liked the idea that somehow she’d become something of a sex symbol. It made her feel confident and that made her feel sexy.
    ‘Absolutely. With your cute little blouses, your perfect hair, your heels. Every guy around wants to mess you up. I’m so, so glad you chose me.’
    Maree lifted herself on her elbows to look directly into his eyes. ‘There was never anyone else in consideration. From the moment I first met you, I’ve wanted you. I just didn’t have the guts to make a move, until today.’
    Brad smiled. ‘I knew you would. Moving out here from the city was a gutsy move, and you’ve taken to this town. I knew you’d find the courage to go claim a man—you’re too strong to wait for a man to come to you.’
    Maree loved the vision he had of her. ‘I seem to be waiting now.’
    ‘So you are. My apologies.’ He
