“You think I was a virgin?”
My cheeks burn up and I don’t know if it’s because of the dry sauna that’s reaching a boiling point, or if it’s his hard cock pressed so close to my pussy, or if it was the idea that Ryder was a virgin. A man who touched me the way he did could never be a virgin.
“I don’t know what I think anymore, Ryder. You’ve made me pretty much forget why I’m even here.”
He lifts my ass, his fingers running up and down my slick slit. Then he eases me down, on top of himself. “I wasn’t a virgin, but Shortbread, I wish I’d waited my whole damn life for you. Your tight pussy would have been worth the wait.”
His cock opens me up, and my body accepts all he has to give. His cock is powerful and it makes me feel powerful too. It’s like his cock is the perfect toy—always ready to be played with. And as my pussy takes him, I know I could get used to playing with him every single day.
“So you just like me for my cunt?” I tease as my body fills with all of him. Not caring one lick of why he actually likes me. In this moment, all I want is for this day to go on and on.
All I want at this moment is for this day to last forever.Chapter 14RyderLater, after the sauna, we’re dressed and cleaned up for the day. We head outside with refilled mugs.
“You run on coffee all day?” she asks. She’s bundled up in a fluffy dark green parka. She has heavy boots on too, and I must say I’m impressed with how she packed for Alaska. She may have been in a tight strapless gown last night for the auction, but she was playing the part. Looks like Justine is just as comfortable in blue jeans and a sweater.
“Pretty much. I switch to decaf though, around two in the afternoon.”
“Me too,” she says. “My mother is a tea drinker, and it has always caused tension in our relationship.”
We walk over fallen branches and stop when one is too big to step over.
“Sounds intense.”
She smiles at me. “I know, first world problem.”
“You get along with your mom then, other than that?”
She nods. “Mostly. My family has never wanted for much, and even though there was a lot of wealth around me growing up, my parents never made it seem like we were loaded. We never took flashy vacations. Instead, we road tripped to the Grand Canyon or Mount Rushmore. And even though my aunts and uncles had live-in help, my mom was the one who made me after school snacks. They sent me to summer camp but not rich kid camp. I slept in a bunk and ate in a dining hall and canoed in the lake like a regular kid.”
“Sounds pretty idyllic,” I tell her. “And what did they think of this auction?”
“We’re going there, huh?” she asks. I take her hand and we sit down on the fallen trunk. Sitting out here, in the fresh air, is the best place to get to know someone. And the truth is, I want to get to know Justine. All about her.
“It’s kind of why you’re here,” I tell her, watching a bird land on a branch heavy with leaves. “It would be strange to pretend it wasn’t.”
“Well, they had opinions.” She takes a sip of the coffee and I decide to not let her off the hook that easy. Truth is, I don’t know how I’d feel if my future daughter told me this scheme of hers.
“What sort of opinions?”
“First of all, they said they were proud of my convictions. They always dreamed of having a daughter who knew who she was and what she wanted. And secondly, they thought this was a little obscene and wanted to just donate the money to HAHA themselves.”
“But you didn’t want that?”
She shakes her head. “No. I wanted to do something all on my own, in my own way.”
“For a cause you believed in.”
“Exactly.”
“So, this animal right’s thing isn’t just a publicity stunt?”
She frowns. “You think I’d sell my virginity just to be famous?”
“I don’t know what you’d do, Justine. We just met.”
“Well, I wouldn’t. And I know we haven’t known one another that long, but I guess I’d like to believe it would be obvious that if I decided to do that it would be for a good reason.”
“I take it back then,” I tell her, raising a hand in defeat. “Look, it was a bold move, and I wanted to know how much it meant to you.”
“How much the animals meant to me?”
“Yeah.”
“They mean a lot.” She purses her lips. “I was a biology major, always had a fascination for living things.”
