A Cowboy In Love
Chapter 24

I had work to do Jack, I wasn't out for a walk. Did you want me to spy on them? Well that wouldn't be a bad idea, because I have a feeling they're up to something. You're paranoid, Jack. Because you don't recognize that Megan is moving your floor. You can go now!

Everyone was hell bent on getting him to confess how he felt about Megan, but if he did what would happen next. He didn't know how she felt about him, because making love is one thing, but the feelings that each of them might harbour is something else. Grandma, we brought you a lot of things we saw in San Antonio.

That means you had fun.

Yes we also had lunch in a nice restaurant, sorry if we didn't arrive on time.

Don't worry my girl, no one has eaten here yet, but there is never enough food here anyway. Let's go upstairs and see what they brought me.

Look at this hat grandma, it's beautiful. Also Melisa bought some things for Rodrigo. She said smiling.

Well, it's a way of thanking him for all he has done for us.

And what did you buy him?

A cowboy hat.

And what did you get Jack? Grisell asked, looking at his granddaughter.

Well, we bought him a shirt, do you think he likes it?

Oh! but if it is very pretty, I am sure that he will like it.

Well give it to him your grandmother.

Oh no, you'll give it to him yourself.

Grandma please!

Don't be a coward Megan! said her friend.

She's in her office, go right now. Her grandmother told her.

Great who would send her to buy her anything, she headed to Jack's office more nervous than ever because if he took her gift as something else, and if he thought she was in love with him, no, no, it was a gift for allowing them to stay so long in his house. He would make it clear to her why he was giving her a gift. He knocked on the door and from inside he heard them say come in.

Hi, I brought you something. He held out the bag from the shop.

And what's this? He looked at the bag as if it were a poisonous snake.

Don't look at it like that, it's just a present for all the trouble we've caused you. She turned to leave but Jack stopped her.

Wait! She stopped and looked back at him. - You got a fax!

Oh thank you! She walked over to the machine to get the fax, and noticed that he pulled the shirt out of the bag and gave her a thumbs up.

I like the shirt, thank you!

You're welcome. She took the sheet and was about to leave when he grabbed her wrist.

If you wanted to go to San Antonio you would have asked me.

It was something that came out of the blue, we just jumped at the chance.

It was either that, or you didn't want to be near me.

Well maybe that's why!

He pulled her tightly, sitting her on his lap.

You like to provoke me Megan.

Of course not! You always want to take advantage of the situation, why don't you let go of me.

What will happen if I don't?

He longed to kiss her, her gift took him by surprise he didn't expect her to be able to give him anything and he wanted to reward her with a warm kiss, so without thinking about it he kissed her savoring her as if she were a fruit, he was so excited when he saw her enter that his rational thoughts started to get lost. He pulled her tight against him, as she sat slouched, she wore only a turquoise linen dress that gave him easy access to the bare skin of her thighs and buttocks, slipping his hands underneath it he caressed her gently. The tiny panties she wore got in the way so she tugged them off leaving her skin much more exposed.

As she loosened the buckle of his trousers he massaged her buttocks, she unzipped his zip freeing his member. He pulled down the straps of her dress revealing that she was not wearing a bra, kissing her neck down to the valley of her breasts she arched a little to give him better access to her kisses. Jack lifted her up a little so he could guide his hungry member into Megan's most secret place, they both moaned as they were inside each other.

Jack felt like he could die right there with just that touch, he had her by the waist as she rode him like a beast, he enjoyed just watching Megan's expression, he soon felt her approaching o****m and decided it would be great to join her and reach it together. Losing themselves in each other, they reached o****m in just a few minutes, becoming exhausted and cuddling shoulder to shoulder.

We can't do this every time we have a disagreement. she told him.

Hmm... If that's true, we'd better do it every time we feel like it.

For God's sake, Jack! I'm serious, every time we argue we end up in bed.

We're not in bed, we're in my office!

This isn't a game, I'm dead serious.

What do you want me to say? I think we communicate better with s*x!

For him it was just s*x, but for her it was becoming something else she was beginning to fear.

We shouldn't let this keep happening Jack.

If you haven't noticed, it happens without us looking for it.

Well, you're always hitting on me.

And you slapped me for it? If you didn't want to, you'd just say no.

Maybe you're right, I'm not made of stone.

You like doing it with me!

And you with me, otherwise you wouldn't look for me.

Yes, that's right!

We're both guilty, we got carried away that's all. It's better to stop now.

I feel like you're just using me. I tell you, I like making love to you.

Well I have needs, just like you do.

So I'm just the one who meets your needs?

If that's the way you want to look at it! She got up off his lap and straightened her dress.

Because it bothered him that she told him she was just wearing it, he should be relieved that neither of them were looking for something serious.

All right, if that's the way you want it to be.

All right, then it's clear that you will never touch me or seduce me again. She left his office, and once the door was closed she leaned against the door, unable to hold back her tears.

Jack felt like an idiot, he had to fix it. He hurriedly got up and opened the doors and she fell back against him.

Megan! I'm so sorry for everything that happened and the things I said to you, please don't cry, come in!

You're an idiot Jack. She said wiping away her tears.

I'm sorry, I know I've been very rude to you.

Why are you being rude to me?

I don't know, you'll think it's very childish of me, but teasing you has become fascinating to me.

I don't understand you!

I guess there's not much to understand.

Why do we keep sleeping together?

I think we like each other, don't you?

If we didn't, we wouldn't. But we never agree on anything.

In bed that's not necessary. I'm offering you to be my lover while you're here.

Does that mean you don't want to get involved with me?

Why get involved Megan, we do just fine as furtive lovers.

Don't I qualify as a suitable woman for you?

That's not the point, you have to understand that your life is in Atlanta, you're not going to change everything by staying here, are you? You're a city girl, the country life might not suit you in the long run.

That hurt Megan deeply, wasn't she qualified to be his partner? But only to be a mistress. And worst of all, she was carrying his child in her womb, how could that man tell her that she, a city woman, would be the mother of his child.

Because it hurt her so much to know that he didn't see her as a woman who could adapt to that kind of life, and suddenly it came to her mind as clear as day, she had fallen in love with Jack Manson and she was pregnant by the man she fell in love with. Now she was more than determined to hide her pregnancy, he didn't love her and only wanted her as his mistress, how could a baby change things. It was with great sadness that she made her decision to keep quiet.
