From This Moment

chapter 2
~~ Rona ~~
While I sit quietly in the back of Jake’s SUV, I look out of the window and all I can see is me, in Cade’s arms, back at the airport. I still can’t believe what happened back there, that he wanted me so much to risk being caught in public. Not once in my life have I done anything like that. Heck! I used to get embarrassed when Nick kissed me goodbye outside the cafe where we sometimes met for lunch.
Jake chatted most of the way back to the house; about what, I couldn’t tell you. I was too distracted with Cade.“Rona, we’re just about to turn on to the property,” Cade tells me, as he turns around to look at me, our eyes meet. This sends my heart rate sky high. What is it about this guy that has my heart all a flutter?
I manage to look away, back outside and finally start to pay attention to my surroundings.
The views are tremendous, with snow capped mountains surrounded by trees along the mountain highway. As Jake makes a right turn, we enter a tunnel of tall cottonwoods and pines; I can just make out what looks to be a lake behind the trees to the right.“Wow, I love the lake,” I say in amazement. “I don’t remember seeing anything so pretty before.”“You can’t really see it properly from here. It isn’t big enough to be a lake, more like a pond, although it’s about three acres in size. You can see the pond from the house,” Jake adds.
Just then we come out of the trees to the most amazing house. It’s a huge structure of mainly glass and wood with what looks to be a couple of feet of large stones around the base. I’ve never seen anything like it before.
The gardens look like something out of a gardening magazine with well maintained lawns surrounded by various plants and flowers. “Your garden is amazing.”“A landscape company in Jackson looks after them, because I don’t always have the time to spend in the garden.” Cade looks pleased that I appreciate the gardens.
Jake stops the car in front of the path leading to the house. Climbing out, Cade tells me they’ll get the luggage. I start to walk slowly up the path taking in the view and the fresh air. It’s amazing.
The front porch is a huge extension of the house and has what looks like tree trunks supporting the front, with circular flower planters around the base, looking really attractive. The front door is huge and would probably fit a giant through.
We enter the house into a lovely spacious reception room; Cade finds a note on the table in the centre. “It looks like Beth and family have moved back home. Their house apparently is ready to be lived in again.”
Cade turns back to look at me and Jake by the door, “I hope it won’t put you off staying with us, but if you prefer, I can phone one of my daughters to see if you’d be able stay with them instead of two bachelors.”“Ha!” Jake looks at his dad, “You can be her chaperone and make sure I behave myself,” he laughs and looks at me, not seeing the hurt on his father’s face.“I haven’t needed a chaperone in a long time, thank you very much Mr Matthews.” I point my finger at Jake, who’s laughing, “and I don’t mind staying with two bachelors. Perhaps you should get your daughter back to act as chaperone to protect you both from me.” I offer them a wicked grin, meeting Cade’s lustful eyes.
Jake continues laughing, not noticing the hot look passing between his dad and me.~~ Cade ~~
Hearing Jake tell me that I can be her chaperone nearly tore my heart out. After what happened at the airport, I want to shout to the world that she’s mine and for everyone else to keep their distance. I know she’ll find someone around her own age eventually, and that will hurt, especially if I have to watch her with my own son all the time.
It surprised me when she came back with the comment about me and Jake needing a chaperone to protect us from her. The little minx!“I won’t be long, I’m going to go and put the car away and then drop down to the stables to check things out, but I’ll be back later for dinner,” Jake tells us. “Hey, do you want to come?” He looks at Rona.“If you don’t mind, I would rather freshen up a bit before dinner.” I actually feel relieved when she turns Jake down.“Okay, I’ll see you both later.” Jake heads back out the front door.“I’ll show you to your room; it overlooks the pond you noticed earlier with the mountain range in the distance. I think you’ll love it.” Picking her bag, up I wait for her to go ahead of me up the stairs.
As she starts up the stairs, I realize what a mistake this is, because I’m now eye level with her delectable backside. I remember it being the perfect fit in my hands. Wondering what type of thong she has on under there and what she tastes like is playing havoc with my libido. By the time we reach the top of the stairs my heart has started to pound and my cock has risen.~~ Rona ~~
When I reach the top of the stairs, I take a few steps forward not knowing where my room is. I hear my bag hit the floor. Cade puts his hands on my hips, sending my heart soaring; he steps in close to me. His chest is now against my back. I try to turn around to face him, but he stops me.“Don’t turn around,” Cade whispers, talking close to my ear, sending shivers through me.“If you do, I won’t be able to stop myself from kissing you and I can’t. We have to take a step back, which I’m finding impossible. You have me bewitched! Already having you in my home is making me crazy. I find I can’t keep my hands to myself where you’re concerned. Hell, I think you were right when you said Jake and I need the chaperone, because all I want is you naked, in my bed,” he groans.
Taking hold of his hands that are still on my hips, I bring them to my stomach and wrap myself in his arms, against his chest. Stepping in closer to him, I feel his erection against my butt. He leans over to kiss my neck. I move my head to the side to give him better access.
He doesn’t waste any time and starts placing open mouth kisses along my neck, while tightening his hold on me. He bites down slightly on my ear, sending shivers straight down between my thighs. Finding it impossible to stay still, I wiggle my butt against his hardness, only to hear him curse under his breath.
He puts his hands back on my hips and starts to pull away. “If I don’t move away now, I’ll have you where you stand, to hell with anyone who walks in. Do you understand what I’m saying? I want you so damn much.” I turn around to look at him. He avoids meeting my eyes and bends down to pick my bag up. Standing up, he rearranges himself with a grimace and starts to lead me down the hall to what will be my room while I’m here.
As I start to enter, the first thing in the room I notice is how thick the green carpet is. My feet start sinking into it and I can’t wait to walk on it with bare feet. Looking up from the floor, I notice the main feature of the room, which is a large four poster bed with a beautiful red and gold covering. There is a desk to the side with a lamp on top. The two large windows overlook the pond and mountain range. “Wow, totally amazing.” The sofa in front of the window looks comfortable enough to sleep on and is covered in the same red and gold design as the bed.“This is a gorgeous room; even the floor looks comfortable enough to sleep on.”“I thought you would prefer this room. The bathroom is through that door and everything you should need is already in there, if not, just let me know,” Cade tells me, still standing in the doorway.“I’ll just put your bag down and leave you to rest up. I think I’ll go shower and change then head down to get the dinner started. Are you okay with pasta?”“Pasta happens to be my favorite meal, so yes that sounds good. Would you like some help?” I ask to be polite, hoping he refuses; I really need some time on my own.“No, I have it covered,” and with a glance he backs out of the room and shuts the door leaving me alone.
God, he is so hot. I hope I get to see him naked!
I let out a sigh of relief and drop down onto the bed with my eyes shut, feeling so tired and confused.~~ Cade ~~
Pasta.... a quick and easy meal if only I can get Rona out of my head. When I left her earlier in her room, I ran to my room to get a shower, because I was sticky from our interlude at the airport. The shower started warm, but I ended up turning it down to cold to try and calm my body down.
My libido is in check for now, but with how out of control it is around Rona, I don’t think that will last long. I’m dressed in dark blue jeans and a pale blue long sleeved ribbed t-shirt which hopefully will cover anything I don’t want seen! Usually I wear loose trousers around the house, but knowing I’ll probably end up with a hard-on I figure it will be more noticeable tented in trousers than restrained in jeans.
Turning around, I find Rona has approached the kitchen, which is part of the open plan layout.
She looks good enough to eat and having showered as well, Rona’s hair is still damp. She’s wearing some kind of stretchy vest top, underneath a soft knit cardigan which she pulls together watching me give her a once over. She has paired this, with what my daughter calls jazz pants and a thick pair of socks.“Do you need help with anything?” Rona asks me with a tender look on her face.“No, I’ve got it covered. Why don’t you take a seat while I get you a drink? Would you like a soft drink or alcoholic?”“As we are having Italian to eat, I would love a glass of wine please.” I pour her a glass of Gavi, as she makes herself comfortable at the breakfast bar.“So what do you do when not on vacation?” I ask, just as Jake comes through the door.“Give me five minutes to change,” he shouts, dashing to his room.“I work for a design company. We get a lot of business creating company logos, but occasionally, I get the chance to do something fun like wedding invitations, promotional posters for movies and I actually love creating book covers, because I get given a copy of the book to read so I can do it justice.” Laughing, she continues, “Sometimes I cheat when I have no interest in the book and just read the book’s description, but I love to read, so getting a copy of some books is definitely an added bonus.”“It sounds like you love your job.” I drain the pasta and put everything into serving dishes.“What about you? What business are you in.”“I’m a lawyer, but only take the odd case, because I much prefer staying here on the ranch, helping Jake at the training centre. We train various breeds of horses. Beth and Anna run the equestrian centre, which is on the other side of the property. Jake and I get involved with that part of the business when they have a large group booking or if they generally need help. We also employ a few staff at both sites; everything runs smoothly, most of the time.”“That sounds really interesting. I’m afraid I don’t know anything about horses though. Perhaps you can take me out on one of yours while I’m here? You’ll have to be gentle with me though.”“Always,” Cade replies and I’m not totally sure we’re talking about the same thing.~~ Rona ~~
As we sit down for dinner, Jake joins us, “The stables are fine and no problems while we were away. Just a few invoices that need paying. I’ve left them in your office.”“I’ll sort them out tomorrow. Let’s eat.”
Tasting the pasta and Italian sauce Cade has made; my taste buds explode.... wow! It’s the best sauce I’ve ever tasted. Finishing my meal rather quickly, I look up to see Cade watching me. Heck, I hope I haven’t acted like a savage by shoveling the food into my mouth.“Did you enjoy that?” Cade asks me.
I blush, “I certainly did. That was the most enjoyable meal I can ever remember having and the sauce was amazing.”“An old family recipe,” Cade tells me smiling. “Would you like some tiramisu with a cappuccino, maybe?”“Oh wow. You carry on feeding me like this; I may never want to leave.”
Cade’s eyes shoot to mine, but he quickly looks away.“That’s the plan,” Jake grins.
Standing up, I help them both clear the table and load the dishes into the dishwasher.
Once the kitchen has been put back to rights we take our coffee and dessert into the lounge. This area is made for comfort and has two large sofas and four oversized chairs.
Taking one of the chairs with a side table, I unload my hands while making myself comfortable in the chair. it back down on the table, so I can eat my dessert, which is delicious.“I promised I would help some friends move house tomorrow,” Jake says to me. “But if you want, the day after, I can take you around Teton Village or into Jackson for some shopping or sightseeing. We can get lunch?”“Once I get some calls over with first thing, I can take Rona to Teton Village for some fresh air and to show her around and then you could take her to Jackson the day after.” As Cade says this, I think the end sounds a bit forced.
Jake not hearing anything weird in his dad’s voice, agrees, “Yeah. That would be better, that way she’ll have something to do tomorrow. That’s if it’s okay with you, Rona?”“I’d love to go out tomorrow, so that would be great.”
Having finished my coffee and dessert, I start to drift off to sleep. Opening my eyes, I see Cade looking at me. I offer him a sleepy smile, “I think I need to go to bed. I hope you don’t mind me leaving you, so early in the evening.”
Cade’s eyes darkened when I said I need to go to bed. I wish he was going to join me there.“That’s fine…. Sweet dreams.” Cade replies.
Jake laughs, “Do you want me to tuck you in?”“I think I can manage.” I reply, not looking at Cade, who has gone all tense thanks to Jake’s teasing.
Finally excusing myself, I head to my room and the bathroom. After brushing my teeth and dropping the cardigan over the arm of the sofa, I climb into bed, switching the light off. I’m asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow.~~ Cade ~~“It’s been a long day; I think I’ll hit the sack as well.” Jake tries to smother a yawn behind the back of his hand.
Placing everything else into the dishwasher, I head up to my office.
After spending an hour working, trying to clear some of the backlog, I head down to my bedroom. I’m exhausted and hope sleep is quick in coming.
Spending about thirty minutes tossing and turning, I lie on my back still thinking about Rona and the fact she’s only down the hall. Hell, I need a cold shower!
Climbing out of bed my erection does a jump of joy! I head for the shower.
Standing under the stream of the water, I squeeze some shower gel into my hands and rub it into my chest. Smoothing it around my nipples, the throbbing between my legs intensifies.
Squeezing more gel, I take hold of my hard cock and start moving my hand slowly up and down. My legs quiver, it feels so damn good.
Thinking about having Rona naked in my arms while I bury my penis in her from behind, watching myself slide in and out of her sex, has my breath quickening even more. Tightening my hold, I start moving my fist really fast. I imagine how tight she’ll feel coming around my cock. I orgasm with that image in my head.
Breathing heavily, I come back down to earth, finding myself kneeling on the floor of the shower, too weak to move. This is hell and I don’t know what the heck I’m going to do about it, other than what I’ve just done. But damn it, I have a deep need for Rona and no one else will do.
Cleaning up, I climb back into bed and finally drift off to sleep.
