Chapter 148: Meeting In Town

Hunter closed his eyes against the torrents of scalding water streaming from his rain shower head. It had been a long day herding the cattle on the mountain, and he’d made it longer by refusing to stay at the cabin. He’d given the privilege to Rolly, who normally bedded down where the younger hands did, in the bunkhouse.

Instead, Hunter had stubbornly chosen to make the long ride back down to the house. His excuse had been that he had a meeting in town, which was technically true. But he was reasonably certain Rolly knew better.

Memories of Poppy in the mountain cabin were too strong, too painful. Not that coming back home was any better.

There in the shower, when he closed his eyes he could see the soft curves of her gorgeous body, could feel her taut nipples against his own flesh, could recall how it was to press her against that tile wall with hot water streaming over both of them as he took her again and again.
