1403 Words
Drake was restless, he wanted to see Stella alone.
Olivia was very clingy. She drank almost a full bottle of wine herself.
Stella went up to Sam's room to get away.
Sam was drinking in the study with Teddy they were talking politics.
Stella sat down on the big bed. She was weary. She lay on her stomach with her arm hanging off the bed.
Drake walked by seeing her arm. That beautiful engagement ring was sparkling in the dim light as it hung on her finger.
He stared at her, he was pining for her body.
He gave into his compulsion and lay down with her in that big bed.
"Hey, what is it?" He asked.
" Olivia." She said and sighed.
" What did she do?" He asked.
"She is very rude to me. She said you told her that I was frigid.
That I was the worst you ever had in your life and that you were forced to sleep with me because you lost a bet."
Drake said,"Sounds like me.
Should we sleep together tonight to check if it's true?"He smiled.
She said," I'm going to the stable to be with my new baby, Sam will walk me down later he said, after he tells Teddy who the governor should be...boring."
He said," Okay, I'll walk you down there now."
He took her out the back door so no one would see him with her.
He abruptly told her goodnight, leaving her in the stall with her foal.
She watched him leave, then, looking up, she climbed the ladder to the roof.
She wanted to see the stars.
He would yell at her if he saw her climb to the roof because of her leg instability.
She lay back and watched the night sky, this place was magical, it fed her soul.
" Auntie Sophia are you there, it's me Stella".....
A few moments later, Drake changed directions, he came back for her. He went to the stall and surprisingly he didn't find her where he just left her.
He wanted her. He was lusting for her. He tried to leave her alone, he was pulled to her like a magnet. He didn't understand his feelings for this ex of his. It wasn't true love, he just needed her body, so he kept telling himself.
Stella heard him calling for her... whispering. "Stella?"
She held very still. No good could come of him finding her in the dark... all alone. She wouldn't be able to resist him right now, he was tall, sexy, and she knew that he wanted her, the way that he stared at her during diner.. Those blue eyes.
He went into the woods, looking for her, worried a little.
Stella watched him go.
Goodbye dumb man that says I'm frigid.
He came back and looked up. He sensed her there.
" I just need to talk to you." He whispered.
She was cold, so she got down and went back to lay with the sweet baby foal.
He was incredibly tall and rakish. He knelt next to her.
" Let me touch you." He said.
He kissed her and pulled her to him.
"Are you with other women still, you know I won't share you anymore." She said.
He kicked the stall door.
" Don't marry him. Just give the ring back, you aren't the type of girl to wear a ring anyway. You are a tom boy."
"If you had bought me a ring, I would have worn it." She said.
" I'm not buying you anything. I just want to be inside you, very deeply. I might give you bruises to your inner thighs, I might bite you a little. I will kiss you...you like that right?"
She heard Sam coming now, to say goodnight to her.
Drake swore, then strode past him angrily in the dark.
" Goodnight Drake." He said smiling. " She turned you down didn't she. She's wearing my ring, you never gave her one."
In the morning Sam woke early, a little afraid to find her with Drake, he ran out to see his fiance.
She was curled up alone with the foal nestled beside her.
He smiled as he woke her up with the smell of a fresh cup of coffee.
Drake came down casually, trying to catch her alone.
He thought of having s*x with Olivia last night, but it would do nothing to ease his lust for her.
" You sleep in here all night with my new foal?" He asked seeing Sam there already.
She smiled. "Good morning Drake." She kissed his cheek.
" How did Olivia sleep?"
" How would I know, Oh..very good." He said.
She smiled. Her heart told her he was in love with her, why do you resist this my love?
He knew she wanted him, she looked right at his crotch.
He tended to the other horses, and waited around until Sam left to get her more coffee.
Sam finally left her to go up to the house.
Drake quickly entered the stall where Stella was and backed Stella into the stable wall.
He touched her waist. He rested his hand on her hip bone as he inhaled her womanly fragrance.
Drake put his hand in her hair and kissed her. She tasted his desire, but held back.
" Stella, you know what I needed from you. Olivia can't give it to me, she's not, well...you."
" I wonder Drake, did you lose another bet?" She remembered his hurtful words.
" I had to tell her those things, because she kept saying that I was obsessed by you."He touched her arm.
" I totally am by the way, you are very sexy my dear." He said to clarify things, as he rubbed her hip.
"You can't marry Sam, you don't love him." He told her.
She looked down. "Why are you trying to get into my pants, I'm so frigid?"
He kissed her. " Not you, you are so very lovely my dear. I dream about you." He was very close to her lips. Those soft lips.
Stella knew. He was just trying to seduce her, then he would leave her all alone again and again.
They all leave me.
" Drake, nothing good can come from this. You and I are not together anymore, you don't want me, you've showed me who you are. It's not Stella's boyfriend, not Stella's husband, I'm just a notch...right here"...she touched his belt.
"Damn it, Stella...I thought that I was in control. I wanted you to hate me. I am too young to have a ball and chain, but Stella...you my little twerp, you are no notch, you are the whole belt."
She looked away, frowning.
"Stella, if you marry Sam. I will only seduce you...I will make it my priority to get you pregnant with my baby, not his."
She touched his cheek softly.
" Sam asked me 7 times to marry him, he bought me a ring, he makes me feel cherished.
When he makes love to me, we don't have sex....he makes love to me. I was never enough for you. Drake do you even love Sam at all?"
" Do you?" He asked.
" I...I ..love things about him. I will grow to love him. I am still getting over you. He knows this, I'm just a woman...I have feelings, my heart is sad right now." She said.
Sam came out of the shadows then.
" Are you done bothering my fiance yet, cousin?"
He was satisfied with what Stella had just told Drake, he knew that it was true, they had spoken openly about it.
Drake nodded. "Have my sloppy seconds then. Good luck to both of you." He didn't get his way, he was pissed off.
Sam punched Drake right in his sassy mouth.
Stella turned and quickly walked out. She limped up to the house to get Teddy.
Olivia was waiting for her.
" Stella, where is Drake, you stole him from me, he won't make love to me anymore?" She cried. She was still so drunk.
" Olivia, I never had him to begin with." She said, trying to get by the tall blond.
Stella shuffled past her, dismissing her.
She grabbed Stella's hair and pulled her down backwards.
Stella cried out in pain, her bad leg bent backwards at a bad angle.
