Reaching up, I wrap my arms around his neck, and sigh in pleasure when he returns my embrace, not an inch between our bodies. I’m so glad I haven’t slipped my jacket on yet. I can feel him against me.
I caress over his earlobe with my tongue and I’m rewarded when he shudders against me, his dick hardening between us.
“I’m already addicted to you.” I suck his lobe
into my mouth before quickly releasing it.
Cade clenches me against him as he softly growls in my ear.
Hearing footsteps approaching, we step away from each other, but keep our eyes locked together.
Glancing down, I see the noticeable bulge in Cade’s jeans so I quickly turn to grab my coat from the stand by the front door as embarrassment heats my cheeks. I just know I’m a lovely shade of pink right now. It’s not like me to be embarrassed so easily, but knowing Jake is approaching and might realize what we were doing a few seconds ago sends a slight blush along my cheekbones. I know this without even looking through a mirror.
Slipping my arms into my jacket, I turn back around and see Cade sitting on the stairs with a wry smile directed at me.
“So Rona.” Jake grabs my attention. “Are you ready to spend today with me?” He grins, unaware of the tension buzzing in the air between his father and me.
“I am.”
“Let’s go then.” He turns to his father, and frowns before saying, “I’ll see you later.”
Jake opens the front door and indicates for me to go first. I turn for one last glimpse of Cade this morning. “Bye.”
“Bye. Hope you both have fun.”
Settled in Jake’s truck, I suddenly realize that he isn’t limping this morning, which means he must have had a good night’s rest. Either that or he’s taking strong medication.
Driving through the cottonwoods, Jake keeps glancing in my direction with a grin on his face.
What’s he up to?
“So, how do you feel about cable cars?” he asks.
My stomach rolls at the image of a cable car swinging over a chasm, only a wire keeping it from plummeting to the ground below. I have no doubt the views are worth it but the thought of being in one is terrifying.
“Um, you serious?”
He glances at me, then back to the road. “Yes, they have one in Jackson called ‘Big Red.’ It’s actually an aerial tram and you’ll love it. It holds a lot of people and takes about fifteen minutes to get to the top of Rendezvous Mountain and then you can experience the best waffles you will ever taste at Corbet’s Cabin. Not to mention you can see all the way down to Jackson Hole, Snake Valley River, and Grand Teton National Park. Absolutely amazing.”
I can’t help laughing. “You sound like an advertisement!”
“Sorry, a friend of mine used to work at the ski school and he was always using the tourist spiel to get the girls to go up with him,” Jake says in amusement.
I smile at him. “Did you?”
“Maybe.” His laugh is warm and easy.
“I think I need to warn you the last time I went up in a cable car, I was terrified. It was really windy and the car was swaying a lot. Horrid experience.” I shudder.
“Not to worry, I’ll take care of you.”
“Hmm. I guess I can give it a try.”
After arriving at the base of ‘Big Red,’ Jake leaves me to purchase the tickets while I use the restroom.
On approach to one of the waiting cable cars, I have butterflies in my stomach as I realize this is a really bad idea. Jake doesn’t realize just how nervous I am when he grabs my hand and pulls me inside.
There are about ten people already on board and as the doors shut, I start taking deep breaths to stay calm.
