Destined to Change Harley, M. (best books to read ever txt) 📖

not you. I’m just not feeling too good, nothing you did. Thanks for trying - you really did your best,” I lied through my teeth. I was fucking feeling fine, I just couldn’t get that woman off my mind.

I went home alone to my huge ranch house. House, not a home.  I remembered a time when it was the happiest home in the world.

When my mom and dad were still alive, my house felt like a home, now it just felt like a house. My parents passed away a few years back. They were killed in a car accident, hit by a drunk driver. My dad died at the scene, but my mother was in a coma for a few weeks. As the only child, I was expected to take over the ranch, and I did it with everything I had. I don’t do anything half-assed and I sure as hell wasn’t going to start now with the thing that was most important to my family.

This ranch had been in my family for decades. My dad, Cody Walker, was so proud of the changes he made to make the ranch run more smoothly. When he married my mom, Candy, the whole little town of Dexter, Missouri about flipped shit. She was a dancer, which was code for stripper that my dad met at a bachelor party he attended in Vegas.  He came home from that party married to my mom.

By the time I was born, the town had warmed up to her a little. She still liked to wear her short skirts and too much make up, which my dad loved, but it got her strange looks at PTA meetings. I had the best childhood. My mom and dad were so in love. My dad adored my mom and he always told me, “Son, when you find the right one, you’ll just know it. Your dick won’t pick her, your heart will. Always listen to your heart, because your dick can be a lying bastard!” Yep, my dad was fucking awesome!

So I was sitting in my lonely house worrying about my little lying bastard. I decided that I should have a conversation with him. Wow, I really spent too much time alone. “Cowboy, this shit is unacceptable. If you have warm pussy ready for you, you always take it. I don’t care what that woman did to you in Joplin, this shit has to stop. She is not ours, she left with asshat. She loves him and we have to forget about her.” Now that my delusional conversation with my dick was over, I decided it was time to go to bed.

When I woke up the next morning, I had a message from George Davidson from the cattle sale. I returned his call and was surprised and excited by his request.

“Mr. Walker, so glad you returned my call so quickly. I’m having a little problem with the cattle we were supposed to deliver out to ya’ll. There’s been some problems with the herd. They aren’t doing too well. We weren’t able to save ‘em all. I don’t expect to make the delivery for about five weeks. Would it be possible for you to meet me at Harper Farms to survey the remaining cattle and then you and Ms. Harper can decide which farm will get which cattle. I'm only asking you to meet me there because it’s a little bit closer to me. I’ll cut ya’ll a hell of a deal and even give you some gas money for the drive.” George sounded embarrassed. I kinda got the feeling that he was having some pretty serious issues at his ranch.

“I would be able to see go see Loralei...” was all I heard George say. Fuck yeah I could do it.

  I said, “No problem at all, when do I need to be there?”

“The cattle will be delivered five weeks from Monday. I can contact Ms. Harper and let her know what’s going on and to expect us.”

“No, that’s okay, George, I’ll let her know I’m coming,” I said with a smirk on my face. You bet your ass she’ll know when I’m coming.

Five weeks - another five weeks before I could have sex. Damn, I hadn’t gone that long without a warm woman, well, since I was a kid. Loralei had apparently ruined me for all other pussy. I was going to have to come up with a plan to win her away from that asshat. And I had five weeks and a lot of pent up sexual energy to do it with!

Chapter 11

Jaxon

It had been two weeks since Stacy and I had the DNA test done on Jaz. I couldn’t bring myself to tell Lor about this. I had to make sure Jaz was mine before I said anything to her. I knew that made me a huge asshole, but we were getting so close. Sammy and Mags were really starting to love me. I felt like I was falling in love with them too. I could see myself in this family. I could see Lor and I getting married, raising the twins, and sitting on the porch in our rocking chairs watching the grandkids play. I never dreamed that I would want that kind of life. I had always been a city boy, but this country life with Lor was sounding better and better every day.

Stacy and I had plans to meet that afternoon at the clinic to get the results. I would finally know today. I would know if that sweet little baby girl was mine. And if she was mine, what the hell would I do next? I couldn’t stay married to Stacy. I thought I had loved her, but I never felt anything for her like what I’d felt for Lor. If she was mine, I would have to figure out some way to get Stacy to move to Missouri. There was no way I could be that far away from my kid.
