“‘Kay. You won’t leave Bandit alone, will you?” She petted the side of Bandit’s neck, the horse nuzzling her little hand in reassurance.
“No, baby, I won’t leave him alone.”
Heather leaned down and kissed Bandit’s nose, careful not to get near the gash on the horse’s cheek. He looked up at her and rubbed her cheek, his concern for her evident. The animal was more worried about her than the wounds it had. Heather reluctantly stood and stared back toward the house, thanking Vince for helping. “I’ll take Majesty and unsaddle her.”
“Thank you, Heather. You are a very big girl. Once Bandit is patched up you can come out to the barn and say goodnight.”
“‘Kay.” Heather mounted Majesty and walked her back toward the barn, her little sobs fading in the distance. Mac trotted behind them as their own personal bodyguard, intent on seeing her home safe. He was a soldier through and through.
Vince sat down next to Bandit in an attempt to keep the horse still until the vet got there. If he were to try to stand, it’d only hurt him more. His wait wasn’t long. He heard the sound of a truck pulling up the drive and watched it enter the gate into the pasture, coming toward them. Bandit started to squirm but Vince held his bridle and continued talking to him, relieved when the truck stopped a good distance away. When the driver’s side door opened, Vince gasped.
Strolling toward him carrying a large medical bag was the Mar’s son he’d secretly fantasized about since the night he’d met him. He'd been dating Nathan, Dave’s brother, for quite some time now but he couldn’t help but drool over the thought of Dave. The two were similar in looks and build, but a roughness in Dave’s icy blue eyes called to Vince in his dreams. He’d never admitted his attraction to himself much less anyone else, but damn if he could deny it now.
Those muscular long legs strode toward him, his broad muscular shoulders still visible through the thick Carhartt jacket he wore. Vince tried to chastise himself for looking, but it was undeniable. Visions of being the meat to a Mars sandwich floated through his mind, twitching his dick to life.
As Vince’s eyes finally rose to meet Dave’s, he almost fainted. Dave’s heated gaze stared back at him, melting him from the inside out. Vince broke out in a sweat. His palms grew sweaty and his mouth dried out, unable to form a coherent thought. Dave sat his bag down beside them and kneeled, never breaking eye contact. A taunting little grin tugged at the corners of his mouth, his eyes still raking up and down Vince and lingered on the growing bulge in his jeans. He cleared his throat, turning his attention to Bandit. “Looks like he fell pretty
hard.
”
It took Vince a full minute to regain his composure and drag his eyes from Dave’s crotch.
Yeah, it looks really hard
, he thought to himself. Dave’s eyes flashed knowingly even as he proceeded to evaluate Bandit’s condition.
Excerpt from Music Under the Mistletoe
A Raining Chaos Christmas
Raining Chaos Book 2.5
By Lynne St. James
Five more hours. Five hours between now and when I’d see Chris again. Setting the timer on my phone was probably a little over the top but I didn’t care. I missed him, his kisses, his smell, his arms wrapped around me, and most of all looking into his chocolate brown eyes and seeing them shine with love.
The last few weeks had been a whirlwind of craziness. Between work and nightly calls with Wrath, I was exhausted, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world. I was living my dream—working for Rolling Stone Magazine, and Wrath and I were together. After years of pining for him I never ever, ever expected to hear him say I love you. Sometimes my life still didn’t seem real, but it was and in a few hours—four hours and forty-seven minutes to be exact—I’d have his arms around me.
I’d wanted to pick him up from the airport but they were landing around two a.m. and he didn’t want me driving that late. Besides, I wasn’t sure we’d fit everyone in Mom’s shit mobile. He promised he’d have them drop him off here though. Now I just had to explain to Mom that we were having houseguests for two weeks. I doubted she’d care about Wrath but I wasn’t sure how she’d feel about Joe. Time would tell.
Opening my bedroom door and heading downstairs, I figured I’d find Mom in front of the TV watching ‘her show of the night’, but instead the aroma of cookies washed over me. She was baking?
There were cookie trays all over the counters and she was buzzing around like Betty Crocker on crack. “Mom? What are you doing?”
“What does it look like, Daisy?”
Grrr, would she ever stop calling me that? “Mom, it's Teresa not Daisy, remember?”
“Yes, yes I know but it should have been Daisy.”
Shaking my head, I reached for one of the gingerbread men cooling on the rack, but got my hand slapped instead. “Umm…okay. You’re baking cookies and I can’t have any?”
“Nope, they aren’t for you. They are for Sally and Jack, and all the kids.”
“The kids?”
“Yeah, aren’t they all headed home for Christmas? Jack told me they were flying back home to surprise Sally.”
Well so much for keeping it a secret. “Did you tell anyone else? Wrath said they wanted to keep it under wraps for a while yet.”
“Nope, Jack said the same thing, but with Sally in the hospital they will need some Christmas cheer.”
“What about me?”
“You’re going to have Wrath here, I’m sure he’ll keep you plenty happy,” she answered while winking at me.
Damn, my mother was something else. It took me through almost all of grade school before I realized she wasn’t like other moms. Hell, none of the other moms got high and tried to get their kids to do it with them, at least none I’d ever seen.
“Mom?”
“Hmm?” she answered as she slid the next tray in the oven.
“You didn’t put anything extra in the batter did you?”
