Sparks Fly(Divine Creek Ranch 11)(26)

He put the lie to his words when he pressed against her questing hand and growled.

“I love it when you say stuff like that with your Southern drawl, cowboy. I can tell it’s getting to ya.”

Juliana loved anal sex with him, but that only went one way. He’d never wanted anything in his ass, but for the last few months, to liven things up, sometimes she’d stroked and played with his asshole with a little lubricant to help things along. She’d even mentioned trying a prostate massage on him sometime. He still clenched at the thought but had to admit he was more open to it than he had been. He didn’t have any idea where she’d gotten her information from, but she seemed to know what she was talking about. Maybe one day he’d let her try it out.

While she held on to the baby floaty, Ash casually scooted in behind her, looking like all he was doing was cuddling his wife against his chest at the pool’s edge. “You get to me, all right, pretty lady.”

He slid his hand flat against her back, around her waist, and inside her suit. Juliana gasped and bit her lip, inclining her head so no one could see her face behind the brim of her floppy hat as his hand slid straight down her abdomen to her slit, finding it silky and slippery with arousal.

“Lift your knees, darlin’. I’ve got a good hold of you.”

She did as he asked, leaning against him and lifting her knees to hide his intrusion inside her suit in case anyone could see them. He grunted with approval and smiled as she relaxed against him.

Will started singing some nonsensical song at the top of his lungs, and Ash and Juliana both laughed softly as he stroked her clit. This was the good stuff. He had a happy, though sleepy-looking kid, a beautiful, sexy wife, and a very contented life. He just didn’t see how it could get any better.

Looking up, he noticed Grace making her way toward them with baby Rose Marie on her hip. He groaned at the imminent interruption as Juliana arched her back and started riding the finger he’d slid inside her pussy. When she started in with that circular, grinding move he knew she loved what he was doing, and he was sorry to make her stop. She looked up at him with those soft, sexy eyes in confusion as he withdrew his hand and then turned when he said, “Hi, Grace.” Go ’way, Grace.

“Hey, guys. I’m putting Rose Marie down for her nap upstairs. The playpen is set up for you if you want to put Will down with her, then you two can play for a bit, without having to worry about him. Ethan’s mom will have the baby monitor on inside.”

Ash was suddenly grateful for the interruption. Bless you, Grace!

“Sure!” Juliana said enthusiastically as she looked back at Ash. “I’ll go put him down and be right back.”

“Sure thing, darlin’.” He helped her out of the pool and extricated a still-singing Will from his floaty.

Juliana crouched down to take him and whispered, “Hold that thought until I get back, cowboy.”

His cock got even harder at the sultry tone she used. “You betcha, pretty lady.”

He heard a horse nicker nearby and waved back at Angel, Joaquin, and Teresa as they trotted by on horseback, headed out for a ride. Angel and Joaquin had grown up in an equine-oriented household, and so it was natural that they’d help Teresa to become comfortable on the back of a horse. They’d even acquired ponies for Michael, and eventually Eleazar, to ride on. For now, Eleazar always rode with one of his daddies and was already very comfortable on horseback.

Seth and Jayne had returned to the edge of the pool and were dangling their feet in the water when Ash heard Charity call out, “Hey, Jayne! I have that swimsuit you wanted to borrow. Come on in the house.”

Ash smiled at the deer-in-the-headlights look Jayne gave Charity.

“Come on, Jayne! It’ll look great!” Charity called with an expression of glee on her face.

Jayne turned to Seth and looked like she was apologizing, but he put up his hand to stop her, stood from the edge of the pool, and helped her up. Jayne’s cheeks turned fire-engine red when he pulled his T-shirt over his head, unzipped his cuffed-up raggedy jeans, and pushed them down. She seemed relieved when he revealed swim trunks much like the ones Ash had on. Ash was impressed by Seth’s extensive body art and noticed that Jayne appeared dazed as she stared at him.

Ash liked Seth’s method, combining a solution-oriented mindset with a little “shock and awe” thrown in to keep things lively. Jayne nodded as Seth cupped her shoulders and quietly spoke. From his vantage point, it seemed Seth was trying to put her at ease. Ash was willing to bet they were the next couple joining the group permanently.

Fifteen minutes later, Juliana returned with Jayne in tow. His wife was the sexiest thing he’d ever seen in her cherry-red one-piece suit, but Jayne was looking noteworthy, too, in a sexy black one piece with more cut-outs than covering. He nearly choked on the beer he was sipping when he glanced over at Seth, who was already in the pool, and saw the way he reacted when he saw Jayne. The guy’s jaw dropped, his eyes bugged, and Ash overheard his softly voiced verbal reaction. “Holy fuck.”
