as the woodcame out, and there was only one dark point near her middlefinger.

“So, did you?” Nana asked her.She sterilized a blade and picked open the skin at the far end ofthe wound and started to tease the splinter out.

“Did I what?”

“Get something out of it?”

“Are you asking if I am pregnantbecause that is definitely not the case. Safety first.” She watchedthe small tip of wood come out of her finger.

Nana grumped and finished thewound treatment before applying a wound cream and wrapping herhand. “The one time a little casual sex might have been to mybenefit and you remember to be careful.”

“Well, I didn’t want to becalled a slut.”

Nana winced. “I am sorry aboutthat. I am very protective of Arthur; he’s a good boy. His fatheris a good man. His mother is a good woman, and they raised anexcellent son.”

“So, he was pretty far from yourmate’s situation.”

“That asshole. He can rot in thehells if I have anything to say about it.” Nana finished wrappingher hand.

A loud noise crossed thelandscape.

“What was that?”

“Oh, Arthur is clearing someland for me.” She smiled. “He has different chores. You could weargloves and saw some of the trees up.”

Stiila looked at her list andthe words, Saw up deadfall. “Right. I am guessing he has thetruck.”

“He does. Take the quad.”

She nodded and pulled on herwork gloves. She got the keys for the quad and headed out, watchingthe deadfall make its way completely to the ground. At least shecould find him.

She drove to the first drop andgot the chainsaw, cutting the limbs off before marking and cuttingthe dead tree into usable chunks. She paused when something got herattention out of the corner of her eye and turned off the saw. Theear protection and helmet came off. “Hey, Arthur.”

He walked up to her and liftedher onto the solid stump she was working on, and he kissed her. Heslid his hands over her back, and she moaned as he pressed heragainst him.

They both smelled sweaty, buthis scent had a certain something to it that pulled her in and madeher want to burrow close. Her tongue stroked his, and hereciprocated, and there was a thud when he pressed her against atree. Her shirt pulled up and her sports bra unzipped under hiscareful fingers. She made a small sound when her left breast wascupped carefully and his thumb stroked her.

With her pinned against the treeand his waist keeping her legs in place, he used both hands on herbreasts and kept the kiss going as it increased in intensity. Whenhe moved a hand to her waist, she inhaled and broke their kiss.“That is going to be a lot of undressing.”

He grinned with his foreheadpressed to hers. “May I take the lead?”

She laughed. “You may.”

He unsnapped and unzipped herpants, lowered them slightly, and saw the silk and lace that shefavoured. “That is going to be the end of me.”

“Defeated by panties? I thoughtyou were made of sterner stuff.” She smiled, and the smile fadedwhen he pulled her to him again and slid his hand into her pants,caressing the line where skin met lace.

She moaned and rocked her hipsagainst his. His fingers trailed around to below her navel and sliddownward until he could ease his fingers between her thighs. Hegrowled when he found her wet and his reception slick and hot. Sheblushed when he raised his head. “How did that happen?”

“Um, I really likelumberjacking?”

He grinned. “Do you, now? Ithought you didn’t have any fetishes.”

“It’s more of a fascination.Sort of a hobby.”

He bent and ran his tongue overboth of her nipples in turn. “I am developing a bit of a fetishmyself.”

“For what?”

“Fit brunettes with funbirthmarks.”

“Sounds like a niche fetish. Youmean like cartoon characters?”

“I am a fan of ancientastrology.” He ran his hand over her thigh where the mark waslocated.

“I don’t even want to know ifyou have the belt marking.”

He grinned. “That is for thesecond date.”

He turned her carefully, kissingher lower back as he slid her jeans down her thighs. She caught onto where this was going and braced herself against a nearby oak. Hemade a happy sound, and there was a rustling of fabric followed bythe crinkle of plastic. She looked over to see him rolling thecondom on. She was surprised.

He met her surprised gaze. “Youwere very specific. This will be standard until you tell meotherwise. My grandmother can wait.”

“Now that isforeplay.”

He grinned and stepped forward,she felt the earth move under her feet, but he held her hips andkept her balanced as she elevated about six inches on stoneblocks.

He lined up with her, and theprodding behind her eased in, and he sighed. “That’s better.” Heslid in further. “Oh, that’s amazing.”

She closed her eyes and clutchedthe tree in front of her as he slid inward. She groaned when hepressed in completely, pressing back at him to verify that it wasas deep as he could go. She wanted him all the way.

He gripped her hips and easedout of her before sliding in with a thud that made her toes curl.He gritted his teeth. “Let me know if it is too much.”

“I want too much. I want more.”Those were apparently the magic words, and he started thrustinginto her hard and fast with the breeze not even having a chance toget between them as he moved.

She could hear her breathing,his breathing, and the slap of their bodies colliding, as well asthe rustle of leaves in the distance. Her breasts swung with everyimpact, and when he reached forward, she dug her nails into thetree as he caressed them gently in a strange counterpoint to thehard pounding inside her. She whimpered and bucked as her climaxhit, her body clutched at him, but he continued moving until hethrust hard against her and gave a hoarse shout.

He paused and slowly collapsedagainst her back, licking the sweat off her neck. He murmured, “Iwant more.”

She turned her head toward him.“You have another condom on you?”

He chuckled. “Five moreleft.”

“Let me get to my boot laces,and you can debate if you are interested in a second round.”

She summoned a tarp from thetrailer on the quad and dropped it
