Free Bullwhipped (A Cowboy Romance) by Danica Chandler Page B

her as a low growl rumbled from his throat. Olivia finished with him, losing her balance again, falling into the mattress. Burying her face in the pillow, she said his name again, looking up at him with her smeared makeup and sweaty hair.
    “Cale…” she trailed off, closing her eyes.
    “You okay?” He slipped in beside her, rolling her on her side, hugging her from behind.
    “Understatement.”
    He slipped some of her hair aside and kissed the nape of her neck, tasting her salty skin. “Somehow I still feel like you’re hustling me.”
    “Why is that?”
    “You’re good at this. You must be a natural. Some of the best sex I’ve ever had, and I’m not just saying that.”
    She laughed and her whole body shook against him. “What can I say? You bring out the sexual deviant in me.”
    Cale traced his hand down to her chest, cupping one of her breasts as he continued to nibble on her ear and down her neck. “Still so much to learn, Livie. So much I can’t wait to do to you if you’ll let me.”
    Her hand rested on his and she turned to face him. She ran her other hand through his hair and down the side of his face, resting her fingers on his lips. He gently kissed them, staring into her beautiful eyes.
    “I don’t want to be away from you for one minute, Cale.”
    “Ditto.”
    “How long before you can go again?” she asked as she flashed a mischievous grin.
    He guided her hand down between his legs. “That all depends on you, Livie. Could be minutes if you use that mouth like you did earlier.” Arching his eyebrow, his heart skipped a beat when she began at his mouth and slowly traced her tongue around each nipple, down to his stomach. Could this night get any better? Her mouth took him deep and it was the answer he needed – it definitely could.
     

Chapter Seven
     
    “Olivia, get your ass up! We’ve gotta get on the road to Killeen!”
    Oscar flicked the light on and Olivia pulled the covers over her head. She was too exhausted to even think about crawling out of bed, much less make the long drive south. She didn’t leave Cale’s room until after midnight and she probably wouldn’t have then if Sammy hadn’t showed up. They had just finished up when he got there, both of them dressed in the nick of time. Cale’s travel buddy was no idiot – he knew what had been going on. Though she loved the time with Cale, she still felt embarrassed that she had let things get as far as they had and that someone else knew about it.
    Turning over, she ignored her brother as much as possible, but when he started kicking the side of the bed, she gave up any chance at more sleep and made a beeline for the bathroom.
    “You were out late with that bull rider, weren’t you?”
    She turned the shower on to as hot as possible and undressed, looking at herself in the mirror. Holy crap, Cale had left bite marks on her breasts. Smiling, she reminisced about how awesome it had felt – pain heightened by pleasure. Stepping in the shower, she felt the soreness from the physical endeavor. There was an ache between her legs, reminding her of Cale being there. The hot water felt great on her skin and she lathered up, her mind on how incredible the night before had been. It was a great escape from the reality that would face her once her shower was over. Oscar was pissed and she wasn’t sure how much more of his lecturing she could take.
    “Still so much to learn, Livie. So much I can’t wait to do to you if you’ll let me.”
    Cale’s words echoed in her head. How could he top what he had already done to her? She couldn’t wait to find out, but had to remind herself to stay focused on her long-term plan. All this time on the rodeo circuit, all the money saved for her riding school, and now that it was so close, here came Cale to send her off on a detour. It was a good fork in the road, but she had to eventually find her way back. It was too soon to consider him being there with her, but she felt like she was
