Sandra turned to Creighton and smiled. The lost look of what was happening around him echoed on his handsome face. She tightened her hand in his. Aunt Kissy had a way of making a person feel like they had just walked into the Twilight Zone.“Here ya go honey,” Kissy said a minute later, handing her two metal keys that read 210. “Ya go on up ta yer room and put yer stuff ‘way before ya go see yer Nana, that way she can’t convince ya ta stay at the farm.”“Thank you Aunt Kissy,” Sandra said. “Do you still accept cash only?”“No ma’am. Brandon done got us hooked up with that crazy inner-net and we can do plastic cards now, but don’t ya worry none. This is on the house. There ain’t nothing I wouldn’t do fer our lil’ Sandy.”“Thank you so much,” she said with another smile. “But my husband is very old fashioned and insists on paying our way.” Sandra leaned in and lowered her voice again, causing Creighton to actually turn pink. “He’s loaded, more than old Bessie Harper when she died. He ha

“I love how eager you are to satisfy,” she added with a wicked grin. “Now stop yer horsin’ ‘round and ride me.”“Ride you?” he laughed, stretching out across her fully.“Yer in Kansas darlin’,” she smiled. “Time fer ya ta accept a simpler way of life.”“If you want me to ride you, you’d better be ready and accept the consequences.”“Which are?”“As horny as I am, you’re going to be left frustrated and eager the rest of the day.”“We’ll see,” she said with a wide smile as he slipped into her.Creighton did exactly as he was ordered and began thrusting into her at a steady pace, but he seemed to forget that she too was on that plane the last twelve hours and was as desperate as he claimed to be. She closed her eyes, raised her legs around his hips and took him in deeper. Within a few ticks of the side table alarm clock, she found herself smiling when the dizzy sensation began to wrap her in its arms. Several seconds later and she clung to him, growling his name on the climatic wings of

“I thought you liked pasta?” Creighton frowned.“I do,” she said with a shocked expression. She hadn’t realized she was complaining until she saw the hurt look on his face. “I love it, I just like my grandmother’s cooking better.” Creighton didn’t say anything else as he turned back to his dinner in front of him. She knew she had hurt his feelings. He had been doing what he thought she wanted, and to be honest, she did want everything he had done, but she couldn’t explain or excuse away her words, now that they were spoken.“Tell us about your plans,” Papa suggested, diverting the tension from the room.The conversation took the safer path of the ideas and plans Creighton’s engineers and designers had come up with, and the timeframe in which they hoped to get the plant up and running. Sandra was thankful for her grandfather’s tact, but she knew she would have to address the subject back at the motel. At least for now, things were calm.“Please don’t be angry,” Sandra said as they dro

Sandra looked up at him and frowned as she took a drink of the juice, swallowing the pills. She brushed the tears from her cheeks as he drew a deep breath and pulled the curtain aside, sitting on the tub’s edge.“You’ve had a very long few weeks, and everything is finally starting to catch up to you. Plus, the new surge of hormones is making your body an incredibly beautiful battlefield.”“Well, you didn’t run back to England, so I guess that says something in my favor.” “I would never leave you over an argument,” he told her. “I’m in this for the long run.”“But you hate running,” she teased, using the washcloth to wipe the stray tears from her cheeks again.“I’ll run after you anywhere you want me to. I’m not going to be frightened away with a few words spoken in the heat of the moment.”“I really am sorry,” she said again, this time leaning back in the tub. “I don’t like getting angry and I don’t like yelling at people, especially those who are only trying to make me feel good.”“

“If it’s all the same to you, I’d really rather not know the details to your contract with him,” she said softly. “Would you mind if I went to the library? I have some personal things I’d like to pick up from my old office and see how Ray is enjoying his new position.”“I’ll drop you off on the way.”“Will you be long?”“Only about an hour at the most. Once your grandfather has agreed to the contract and the changes I made, then we’ll have to get it notarized. I’ll fax everything to my solicitor and have the money wired into his account by end of business.”“The library notarizes, so you can pick me up there when you’re finished. You can even fax the papers from there if you’d like. We can come back here together and maybe catch a quick nap - or something - before we have to meet Nelson.”“Sounds good,” he said with a half grin as he took a drink of his coffee, his mind thinking of the type of something she had in mind. “I’m just glad your mayor agreed to meet us later. I really want

She smiled through the window to him and waved, then turned and walked in through the glass doors and back into the world she had left behind.Creighton pulled away from the curb. His heart felt much lighter than it had last night. It was amazing how the light of day seemed to make everything right again and gave him hope for a future he was dreading just a few hours before.“I cannot believe you’re married,” Barbara Baker said a short while later as Sandra sat in her old office surrounded by her former co-workers and friends.“Not just married, but happily married,” Sandra said with a wide smile as the other women inspected her wedding rings. “What’s it like?” Kelsey Dale asked, leaning her elbows against the desk and staring at her former boss with dreamy eyes. “Is he really as wonderful as everyone says he is?”“Yes, Creighton is an amazing man. Very handsome, very kind and an incredible lover.” Sandra wiggled her eyebrows as she said the last of her sentence, making the other gi

“He has already held his own press conference this morning, that’s why those reporters were at the restaurant,” Creighton explained. “He’s using all of this as a platform for his re-election campaign.”“Doesn’t surprise me,” she said with a frown as Papa’s phone rang and he began talking to someone on the other line, very briefly.“Cathy said to hurry up,” the older man said, slipping the phone back in his pocket. “She said there has been a reporter following Nelson around all day.”“Good,” Creighton growled softly. “This may be the first time I will be happy to see one.”“I’m coming too,” Sandra said quickly, gathering her satchel from behind the counter and hurrying to where Creighton waited for her by the door, slipping her hand in his.The drive to city hall was short, barely five blocks away, but the tension inside the small car was stifling. Everyone was consumed with their own demons and Sandra found herself actually excited to see the man she used to dread visiting. Creighton

“I will not have you pushing your influence into obtaining the permits needed for this project. It will happen in the appropriate amount of time and I will allow construction to begin, only if and when, everything is ready. I will in no conceivable manner allow my company to become a side show attraction.”“Then this is a real reason for celebration,” Michael said with a smile, patting Creighton on the shoulder. “The people of this town have been preparing for today’s festivities since we learned you were coming back. It would be a shame to disappoint them. Please accept my invitation as my guest. There are a lot of people who would love to shake your hand.”“And what do you gain from all of this?” Creighton asked, turning his gaze to him, his jaw clenching when he finished speaking.“Absolutely nothing,” he said with a shake of his head. “I am a part of this town and I too have been looking forward to your arrival. Your company will benefit the town in many ways, and I support your d

Papa and Nana decided to stay in town and do some shopping, insisting that Cathy could take them home. The ride back to the motel was quiet and tense as Sandra sat next to her husband, trying to figure out his mood. There was definitely something bothering him, but she couldn’t for the life of her put a finger on it. Remembering her deplorable behavior, the night before, she frowned. It had to be that. She had fallen asleep without their usual amount of playing and then this morning after their shower, when she thought things would get exciting, she found herself wrapped in his arms as they made slow love. It was pleasant enough, anytime she was in his arms she found herself succumbing to his charms and desires and eagerly reaching her climax. But that morning was different. If she didn’t know better, she would swear he was deliberately trying to keep her at bay.“Are you hungry?” he asked when they pulled into the parking stall of the motel.“Not really,” she said softly, causing h

Chapter 210

Sandra hadn’t realized how much stuff she had put away in storage until Craig opened the door to the unit. She literally had an entire apartment inside the concrete box. There was a complete five-piece bedroom set with padded headboard and footboard, a dinette set, sofa and love seat, coffee table, television, stereo and an assortment of dishes, linens, knick-knacks and wall décor. She remembered how proud she was when she bought each and every piece of furniture, having saved and swapped until she had just the right setup for her apartment. Now, she couldn’t even begin to think of what she would do with all of it. She didn’t need the money, thanks to her new husband, and didn’t relish the idea of a yard sale. Sitting outside in the hot sun while people sorted through all of her personal belongings, wasn’t her idea of a fun weekend.With a heavy sigh, she stood up from the center of the items she had been going through and straightened her back. She climbed across the sofa to the ent
