Lester loved Ava. He truly did. But he hated and despised the pussy she came out of, namely Whitney.

“How could you not call me when my only child – our child was in a plane crash and reported missing! How!” Whitney shrieked. “I always knew you were a rude and crude bastard, a liar, a cheat but I never thought you were a complete sociopath!

“Yeah, yeah, yeah, what is it the young people say now? All that talkin’ do that shit while you walkin’,” Lester said as he glared at her. “Out the door and out this house so that we’re clear.”

“I’m not going anywhere until you tell me what’s going on, you, you . . . demon from hell,” she sneered. She wore a dark red collarless peplum blazer with a matching pencil skirt. A mink fur was hanging over her shoulders, secured with a gold chain in the middle that hovered above her waist. She looked damn good as always, but the black widow looks good, too, until she strikes.

    Ava hadn’t told Ray about the memory she had in the bar while taking her first shot of tequila with Jesse. It was the memory of her taking a shot with a dark-haired, handsome man in a nightclub. She could tell she had some feelings for the guy, but everything else was a blur. She woke up at six a.m. as usual despite how late it was when she had gone to bed. It was Sunday morning. On Sundays, the boys liked having a big, old fashion breakfast.Ava had begun to shower when her mind flashed. Whether she had talked about the dark haired stranger or not to Ray, she was seeing him again now. He was – no. they were both naked in an oversized shower together. Steam was quickly building up around them as the man took her in his arms. Their wet and hot bodies were pressed together as they kissed passionately.Ava gasped as her hand trailed down the side of her body as the sprinkling water beat against her C-cups. She was mimicking the man’s hands. They expertly glided al

    Ava and Ray led the pack, as it were, on their steeds to the big oak tree on Cross Creek Ranch. The creek split off into two creeks thirty feet away from it. Dax, Tom, Ray, and Ava slowed their horses and dismounted. Ava had packed club sandwiches and macaroni salad for lunch. After they ate, the boys wanted to race each to here and there. Ray and Ava stayed behind, sitting on a blanket next to the oak tree. The sun shined bright in the cool sixty-five degree air. They were bundled up pretty good. Ray wore black jeans, black boots, and a buckskin jacket. Ava had on a dark brown Woodbury jacket with a hood. Her shoulder length hair was down around her shoulders. The horses, Whisper and Nicklaus, were grazing by the creek. “Ava,” Ray began softly. “You still seem a little . . . out of it. It’s not fatigue, is it?” Ava lightly exhaled. “No.” “What is it?” “I . . . I had a memory this morning before breakf

    Later that day . . . Ray rode Nicklaus to the east end of the ranch. The boys were only a few miles away from the barracks. Ray could see them up ahead. He still couldn’t believe he had let his libido get away from him like that. Granted, Ava didn’t seem offended but still. Jesse waved at him as he continued to approach. The boys were checking on the herd. Two of them were expecting. Ray slowed his horse as Jesse and four ranch hands greeted. “Hey, guys,” Ray said as he dismounted. He patted Nicklaus on the side a few times and approached the group. “Come to help us out?” Jesse asked with a smile. He wore a sage colored Stetson and a dark green fleece jacket. “Actually, I’ve come to talk to you. Do you boys mind giving us some space?” Ray asked. The group of four nodded and walked away. “What’s up?” “I never thought I admit this in life to my baby brother but I need

    Ava had called Redd, the Getter Done Truck driver who had picked her up on the side of the road over four months ago. She had tried calling him a few times before, but he had never picked up. This time he had. Redd had given her his cell number on the back of his business card.“I’m so glad you’re all right. I’ve thought about you on and off during the past few months. So, you figured out your name is Ava, huh?”“Yes, it was engraved on a bracelet in the one bag I was able to salvage.” Ava spent the next hour telling Redd what she had been through and what she had experienced.“Damn, it sounds like you’ve been on a roller coaster ride, all right,” Redd said. “But you should be fine at The Cross Creek Ranch. The Steele family are good folks.”“You know them?” Ava said with surprise.“Not directly. I know a few of the ranch hands,” Redd said in a relaxed tone. “I used to drive delivery for cattle auctions. I’ve delivered quite a few bulls and heifers out there before I got this job. Th

    Monday . . . Ray had been avoiding Ava since yesterday late afternoon. He had Dax tell her they were eating dinner out last night and he hadn’t come to breakfast this morning. Matter of fact, Ray had Jesse pick up his lunch early this afternoon. Ava couldn’t put off getting to the bottom of this. She would have asked Jesse what had happened between Ray and Lillian but she wasn’t sure if he would tell her. If she couldn’t find out on her own, then she would go to him. “Ava, dear,” Mrs. Porter preened as she let Ava in the house. “So good to see you.” “It’s good to be seen,” Ava joked. Mrs. Porter chuckled. “Have you eaten? I was about to fix myself some lunch.” “No, and thank, God, I haven’t. You make the best lunches,” Ava said with a smile. “Thank you. Well, come into the kitchen. Let’s whip something up together like we used to.” They cooked cheeseburger sliders and broccoli salad. Mrs. P

    Tuesday . . . Today was Ava’s regular appointment with Dr. Goolsby. She told the psychologist about her weekend and her horrendous memory of her mother’s betrayal. “Goodness,” Dr. Goolsby commented. “You did have a busy three days. I’m so sorry about what your mother had done.” “I am, too,” Ava said flatly. “For a minute there I thought I had a real family to return to when I got all my memories back. But . . . “But?” “I want nothing to do with them – and I don’t want to recover any more of my memories.” “I understand you’re hurt. Any daughter would be. But that’s no reason to throw away the work we’ve done so far or your other family members. You do have two sisters. They had nothing to do with what your mother did.” “Perhaps not but for all I know they took our mother’s side in things.” “What makes you assume that?” “They haven’t tried looking for me either.

    Besides wearing his ten gallon black hat, Hawk wore a white dress shirt and black slacks. His large cowboy boots clunk with each step on the wood floor. “Good afternoon, Miss Ava,” Hawk greeted as he approached the table. “Good afternoon, Mr. Calhoun. Thank you for paying for my lunch. But I must ask you. How do you know my name?” He chuckled a little. “Well, it doesn’t take long for news to spread around here among the ranching set and it’s a small town. I learned the other day who you were and that you work on The Cross Creek Ranch.” “I see.” “I want to apologize for what happened at the saloon on Saturday night,” he said humbly. “Actually, I feel like I owe you the apology. I was willing to dance with you when you had asked again while we were leaving but –” “Yeah,” he interrupted with a croaked smile. “Ray had other ideas. Don’t you fret about it. It wasn’t your fault. Me and Ray have a

    Friday . . . Ray was still avoiding Ava like she had a deadly strain of COVID. Considering that, Ava knew he wasn’t going to pull himself together to go to Dax’s game in Columbus. It was a two hour drive from Townsend. Ava and Tom rode with Jesse in his green Jeep Cherokee. When they got to the school, all the usual suspects were there to watch Dax play - Gill, Jock, Lance, John, Gable, Joe, Bobby, and Kyle along with two extra hands, Matt and Josh. The game between Columbus Cougars and Broadwater Bulldogs began with a kick-off to the Cougars. The first two quarters were rough on the Bulldogs. The Cougars weren’t playing around with them. One of the linebackers on the Bulldog side got injured. EMTs carried him off the field on a stretcher. No one was sure what was wrong with him. When half-time came along, the score was 28 to 7, Cougars had a good lead on the Bulldogs. Ava was actually worried that the Bulldogs might lose their first gam

    Ray had won first place for bull riding and breakaway roping. He had two blue ribbons and nine thousand dollars in prize money. “I had no idea the prize money was so substantial in a rodeo,” Ava said as they walked upstairs at The Coyote Bluff Estate. Ray nodded. “Contestants can win up to ten to twelve thousand, depending on how many people are in the contests and how many there are in.” “Wow,” Ava mumbled. They got outside of their rooms. “So . . . would you like to come to my room tonight?” Ray asked. Ava’s body tingled all over at the proposition. “Yes. Just let me grab some things, and I’ll be right over.” **** Ray had taken off his boots and socks. His clothes were dusty and dirty and so was he. He had asked Ava to give him a half hour to take a quick shower. He didn’t want to smell like horse sweat and dust

    What the hell was I thinking? I haven’t rode a bull in five years. The same for barrel racing. Roping a calf? I do that all the time. But the other things I’m rusty on. I gotta be. I’m older now, too. I could break my damn neck out there. But it was too late now. Ray had paid the entry fees for the three contests and met Lou’s new wife, all the while Ava looked up at him dreamily like a teenage girl who had a big crush. He couldn’t back out. He would look like a coward if he did. And he didn’t want to disappoint Ava. She seemed excited at the prospect of him possibly breaking his neck in the arena. Nathan and Kevin had congratulated Ray and Ava on their new relationship. And asked about how the rest of the football season went for the Broadwater Bulldogs. They had nearly flipped out of their boots when Ray had told them the Bulldogs had won the championship game. Then they had hooted and hollered when Ray told them how well Dax had played that nigh

    Ava finished getting ready as quick as she could. She couldn’t wait for Ray to come back over. So, she went to his door. Ray opened it with a smile. “Couldn’t wait to see me again, huh?” He wore a maroon-colored long sleeve shirt with pearl snap buttons and black jeans. Ava grinned. “I always love to see you and as fast as I can, but . . . I came over instead of waiting for you because I had another memory as I was getting dressed. This was the first memory she has told him about in a while. She hadn’t told him about the last few. “Oh?” Ray said as he stood aside, letting her in. Ava walked in as she told him about what she had remembered. “I could have been to Townsend before. I mean . . . the woman invited me to her wedding to a man with the last name Townsend. He could be a descendant of the founder of the town. Or a descendant of someone who lived in the town when it was first established.” “Hmm. I don’t know,

    Ava was practically purring like a cat that was being rubbed the right way when Ray began moving up her body. He couldn’t hold out anymore. His goal was to give her as much pleasure as he could as a reward for being so patient while he sorted himself out. Ray hadn’t meant to make her cum so early like that, but the sound of her moans – and knowing he was the cause of it made him want to prove that he could satisfy her. And he was about to do it again whether she was ready or not. Ray got on his knees and lifted one smooth, luscious leg and placed it against him. Ava sultrily widened the other, knowing what he was about to do. He grabbed his manhood and placed the tip at her opening. Then he pushed in. “Uh,” Ava moaned as he slowly entered her soaking, wet pussy. Ray tried going slow at first since she was so tight, but something rose up in him. Like an animal had awakened in him that smelled a hottie in heat. He began thrusting in her –

    Ava pulled out of the kiss. “Kissing me isn’t going to fix this, Ray.” He released her. “I know,” he said as he entered the room, making her walk backwards a few steps. Once he had enough room, he turned to close the door and secured the deadbolt. “Oh, no,” Ava began sternly. “You’re not staying so we can talk. I’m done, Ray.” “I know,” he said as he took of his coat and black Stetson. As he tossed the hat on the desk and the coat on the chair, Ava said, “I mean it. Don’t get comfortable because you are not staying. I mean it.” “I know.” He loosened the first top buttons of his shirt then he had the nerve to sit on the edge of the king size bed. “What the hell are you doing?” “Taking my boots off,” he answered like there was nothing unorthodox about what he was doing. “Why are you – I don’t care why just leave them on and get out.” Ava walked to the other side of the room.

    “Hey, Ray,” Troy greeted as he approached. “Hey. You guys have fun?” Ray asked and sipped his scotch. “Oh, yeah. It was great. Me and my friends were talking and we hoped Ava would come with us tonight to a club.” “What she say?” “I don’t know, yet. My friends are asking her now but I had a feeling she wouldn’t say yes unless it’s okay with you.” “Oh. Well, if she really wants to go –” “You’ll be okay with that?” “Yeah.” “There’s just one thing, though.” “What?” “Um . . . do you mind staying behind? No offense. You’re a really cool guy but it would be pretty awkward to go to a nightclub with someone’s dad.” “What?” Ray said as his eyes narrowed. “Look, I’m sure you and Ava came up here to spend some father/daughter time together and I – I mean we don’t want to interfere in that, but, surely, you can give her one night out with peop

    The Coyote Bluff Estate was more beautiful in person than it was online. Snow covered the landscaping. It was a huge log cabin home that was turned into a getaway. The two owners were friendly. They took them on a quick tore inside and then showed them to their rooms. Ava’s room was across the hall from Ray’s. They had lunch an hour before they had gotten to their location. So, they decided to get back in the truck and look around at the sites. Apparently, Ray hadn’t been to Kalispell in ten years. He had said a lot had changed since then. They took a tour of Glacier National Park to look at the scenery and the wildlife. When they had finished with that, they had gone to The Montana Club Restaurant for dinner. During dinner, Ray opened up to her, telling her more about his parents and grandparents.After dinner, they went back to the estate. It was almost eight o’clock.As they walked to their rooms, Ava said, “I have to say you seem more . . . relaxed than usual.”“Oh? We

    Two days later . . . After dinner, Ray was packing what he needed for his trip with Ava. They were leaving in the morning around nine. They had told the boys they were going on a short trip together and would be back sometime Sunday. Jesse was in attendance for dinner tonight. They seemed to be fine with it. Dax and Tom had wished them a good time. Jesse was milling around in Ray’s bedroom like he used to when he was a teen, looking over him as he packed and asking a bunch of annoying questions. “Did you buy new drawls?” Jesse asked as he paced by Ray for the tenth time. “No. Why do I need new drawls? What I got is fine.” “No holes in them?” “No!” “Skid marks the washing machine couldn’t get out?” “Shit no, Jesse!” Ray shouted. “Now, if that’s all, can you get the hell out of here!” “One more thing.” Jesse rounded around him as he reached in his pocket. He pulled som

    Two days later . . . Ray was in the stables preparing Nicklaus for travel tomorrow. For the first time he was being put out to stud. Ray was going to send him to the man that liked Nicklaus more than Whisper, the Albano, he had originally wanted to put out to stud. “I’ve seen her, buddy,” Ray said as he packed up Nicklaus’s favorite feed in the corner for the boys to take when they backed up the truck. “You’ll love her. Trust me.” The horse snorted nastily. “Hey,” Ray eased out as he stood straight from bending over. “I wouldn’t lie to you.” Nicklaus blinked. He had a solid shiny, brown coat along with a long, brown mane and tail. “Are you nervous?” The horse turned his head a little. “There’s a first time for everyone, buddy. Just . . . take your time. Let her feel you out and you feel her out.” Nicklaus turned back to him. “I know you weren’t expecting
