Maizy the Bear Charmer(Diving Creek Ranch 16)(24)

By:Heather Rainier


“Me, neither,” Jayne said as she returned his hug and in a low voice added, “She’s so sweet, Cody. Don’t you dare break her heart, okay?” Sincerity shown in her eyes and Cody had to hug her a second time.

“Don’t worry, Jayne. We’ll take very good care of her.” Maizy was in good shape with such loyal friends.

“That’s bossy of me, isn’t it? But I also think she lives up to the legend.”

Lucy came over to hug him, too, and practically vibrated with excitement. “You found her! I’m so happy.” She smiled up at him and softly added, “Now you just have to keep her. We put in a good word for you, by the way.”

“Thanks, Lucy. How are your men?”

“They’re at home with PJ playing video games. If you can point us in the direction of our table, we’ll leave you to greet Maizy.”

He was in dire need of delivering a kiss to a certain sexy woman, if Heath would ever stop mauling her. He nudged his brother and asked him to show the girls where their table was. Once that was done, he turned to Maizy and looked her over.

“Remember what I told you before you left this afternoon?”

Maizy bit her lip and nodded. Her cheeks were flushed and she darted a gaze around.

He didn’t care who watched as he took her hands and pulled her up against him. He did it slowly, enjoying the sensations as he wrapped his arms around her voluptuous curves. She returned the favor, wrapping her arms around his waist and looking up at him with glowing honey-brown eyes.

In no hurry, he nuzzled her temple and growled softly, enjoying the shudder that rippled through her. Her scent ignited all the memories from earlier in the day. When he was ready, he lifted his hand to her jaw and cradled the back of her head with his fingertips as he tilted her chin up to him with his thumb. Her rosy lips parted and her eyelids slid closed as he brushed his lips against hers in a playful tease. His cock hardened instantly at the trust she gave to him, gently pushing back, returning the gesture.

She sighed against his mouth and her body relaxed into his as he increased the pressure and rubbed his lips against hers, licking at the fullness of her upper lip until she let him in. Her fingernails lightly scored his back as she stroked him. He shuddered in reaction and then ruthlessly plundered her mouth, tilting her head to the side so he could deepen the kiss and drink his fill from her. She gave him what he wanted, clinging to him and kissing him back. She flexed her hips, rubbing her body against his erection, a subtle acknowledgment that he was hard for her.

“Damn, that’s hot,” Heath murmured up close to them.

“Figured it would be,” Spencer replied, close by as well.

Cody opened his eyes as he continued to kiss her and that was when he saw that Heath and Spencer were side by side, watching them but also providing a bit of privacy from the crowd.

“Oh, yeah, they’re staring all right,” Heath said through a chuckle. “That’s okay, you just enjoy yourself there.” Maizy’s body rippled with a giggle and Cody finally lifted his lips from hers to find her smiling up at him. She pressed her fingertips to her lips.

“Wow,” she murmured. “Happy to see me?”

Cody gave her a lopsided grin. “Very. But then, you already know that,” he added, taking a chance as he slid a hand down to her ass cheek and pulled her against the steel shaft in his leathers. She made a purring sound and his libido did a pole vault as she scratched his back again. He made a mental note to ask her to do that some more later, preferably without any clothes on.

He let out a deep breath as she took a step back and looked him up and down and then repeated the favor for Heath and Spencer. “Damn.”

Cody smiled, seeing the lust in her eyes. He’d seen that look a time or two when women got a look at him and his brothers in their leathers but coming from her it had true potency. Teasingly, he asked, “What?”

She giggled and whapped his arm lightly. “You know what! The first time I saw you, I thought you were a little grungy. Sexy, but grungy. Then earlier, you were dressed in jeans and T-shirts and I liked that just fine, but in these leathers and boots, and all black, too. Dayum. You’re hot guys,” she said and then an adorable blush crept into her cheeks and spread to her chest, making her darkly tanned skin glow.

Cody bent forward so that he could nuzzle her cheek. He cast his gaze up to Spencer and Heath and they nodded, so he said, “Since I had to wait all day for my kiss, I’m taking you out on the dance floor…if you’d like.”

“If I’d like? I haven’t danced in forever. I’d love to. But one thing first?”
