Dominating Cassidy [Long Mead 2] Read online

  “And he loves you, Scott. You’ve got to stop thinking he doesn’t. You’re letting other people affect your relationship, and as brothers, a relationship between you is important.”

  “My mother would love you,” he said. Thinking about his mother with her hard-ass attitude but her loving ways made the tears fall from his eyes faster.

  “God, I haven’t cried like this in years.”

  “It is good for you, Scott. Now hold me and let it all out.”

  He wrapped his arms around her shoulder and held on as the tears and pain fell out of him.

  * * * *

  Cassidy felt his body shudder with his tears. She’d never witnessed so much anger. The sadness inside Scott was horrible to witness. She stroked his arm and felt the hard press of his cock against her back.

  Dinner would be ready soon, but she knew Scott needed some alone time with her. If she could make Gary and Scott overcome their issues, then maybe they had a shot at this relationship. She loved them all equally.

  She knew from the gossip in town from schoolgirls and women that they went out with Scott to get to Gary. The way the other women talked had always made her so mad. She hadn’t known how bad it got, but the woman dragging herself along on Scott’s arm would be on Gary’s arm by the following week. At the time she never thought much of it, but now she saw the incidents in a whole new light.

  For too long Scott had felt like he was living in his older brother’s shadow, and she had to prove to him that she saw him as Scott Walker, not as Gary’s younger brother.

  “You mean a great deal to me, Scott,” she said.

  “I know.”

  “Promise me you will talk to me whenever you start to feel that anger again.”

  “I promise.”

  He held her close, and she felt the rapid beat of his heart against her back. The pulse of his cock made her pussy wet with wanting, but this wasn’t about sex. She wanted to comfort him without the pressure of sex.

  The water turned cold, and she washed his hair before getting out. In her bedroom, he pulled her close, kissing her neck. “You’re an amazing woman. I’m so pleased you’re with us.”

  “I am, too. I love you, your brothers, and Michael. We can have a wonderful family if only you open up your heart and learn to enjoy it.”

  Scott nodded his head then left her room. She changed into a pair of sweatpants and spaghetti-strap top. By the time she got down the stairs, Scott was sitting with the rest of his family. Michael was walking through the door.

  “Hello, gorgeous,” he said.

  “Did you have a good day at the office, Sheriff?” she asked.

  “My day has improved substantially. Come and give me some sugar.” She laughed, walking over to him. He swept her up in his arms, his lips on hers within seconds. Cassidy melted in the pleasure of his touch. She really did love being with them all. The last two days, Scott and Gary arguing aside, had been the best two days of her life. She should have let them get themselves thrown into a cell months ago. “I missed you.”

  “I missed you, too.” He grabbed her ass. Cassidy felt the heat in his hand as he pressed his thickening cock against her tummy. His grip was firm but not painful. The commanding feel of him made her gasp.

  He let her go, and she went to serve up the casserole she’d started earlier in the day. She knew it was summer, but salads could only go so far before you got bored. The moment she began to set the table, her men walked in and took their seats at the table. For a moment she stood and watched them. This was her family. Five men who loved and cherished her. She allowed her mind to wander, and before her she saw all of her men at the table with little children laughing and running around their feet. Her breath caught at the image. Cassidy turned back to the stove as her heart filled with wanting. She prayed to whoever was listening that their relationship worked. All of the men at the table held her heart, and she wouldn’t dream of hurting them in any way. She loved them all way too much to risk anything going wrong.

  One day, she wanted to have their babies. To fill this house with the sound of joy and laughter. A true home with a large family. She’d wanted one ever since she’d heard about the death of her own parents.

  “Are you okay, baby?” Michael asked.

  She nodded her head. “Just daydreaming. I hope you’re all hungry.”

  They all nodded their heads and fisted the table. She chuckled at their caveman approach.

  “I live to serve.”

  She carried the steaming pot of casserole, and she’d decided to serve it with some rice and flat breads. All of them held up their plates. She couldn’t help but laugh at their hungry gazes.

  Taking each plate she filled them with food until she put some on her plate and sat down next to Jesse.

  He bumped her shoulder playfully like he always did.

  “I’ve got some news,” she said, remembering the change in plans with her sister. “Lou isn’t going to be available for Friday, and if you all want to take me dancing, then I’d still be up to go.”

  “Damn, I can’t wait to get you on the dance floor. I can still see how sexy your ass looked when you danced with Michael,” Roy said.

  Cassidy chuckled.

  “She can move, man. I promise you, you’ll be even more smitten with her. I spend most of my time hard by her moves.” Michael told them all about her teasing on the floor. She laughed along with them. When they finished, she and Roy cleaned away the dishes before she served up the apple pie she’d baked with a hint of cinnamon.

  The pie went faster than the casserole. At the end of the night, she watched a movie curled up against Scott with Gary at the end by her feet.

  She called it a night first, kissed them all, and walked to her room.

  Her eyes were drooping when a knock came at the door.

  “Come in.”

  Jesse walked in wearing a pair of boxers. “Hi,” he said. He shut the door and made his way over to the bed. She waited for him to lie on top of the blankets. He took her hand, kissing her knuckles.

  “Where are the others?” she asked.

  “Watching some football downstairs. I was tired.”

  “So you decided to come and talk to me?” she teased him.

  “I wanted to spend some time with you. You’ve always been part of my world.”

  Cassidy kissed his hand, smiling back at him. “You’ve always been there as well.”

  He nodded and stayed silent. She stared at him waiting for him to speak. She knew Jesse had something on his mind. It would be best for her to wait until he was ready to talk to her. She stared at their joined hands. He had much darker skin than hers. She imagined it was due to his working in the sun.

  “I’ve loved you my whole life,” he said. She gasped. His admittance had been the last thing she expected.

  “Your whole life?”

  “Yes. You’re my best friend, Cassidy. And I’ve always valued our friendship. When Luke hurt you, I wanted to kill the bastard.”

  She remembered as if it was yesterday the pain of Luke’s betrayal and the hurt he’d put her through. The first thought she’d had at the time had been to run to Jesse. He always knew what to do. “He hurt me so much. I thought I loved him. Now, as I look back, I know I never loved him. What I feel for you, Roy, Scott, Gary, and Michael, that is love.” He cupped her cheek.

  “I’ll never let anything happen to you.”

  “Nothing will ever happen to me, Jesse. I love you guys.”

  Jesse kissed her on the head and snuggled in close to her. She closed her eyes, letting sleep claim her.

  If only she’d known how Jesse had felt, she would never have lost all of these years of happiness with him.

  Chapter Nine

  The rest of the week went by without a hitch. Scott and Gary were talking more. She found them spending more time together trying to get to know one another. Most of the guys were busy with work, and when her chores were done in the house, she went to visit Claire. The other woman
was in a blissful world, and the moment she entered Shane and Liam’s ranch, she felt that love all the way down to her soul. The other woman embraced her with open arms. When she saw all three together, she knew she had a shot with her five men to have something as perfect as what she saw.

  She went to town with Claire to pick up her groceries, and they’d bumped into Stephanie. They ate at the diner together. Cassidy began to feel like she had girlfriends she could rely on. The conversations with her sister were getting less frequent with every passing day. She tried not to worry. Lou always looked comfortable with Mr. Smith. All of her men found a way to take her out. They spent time with her asking her what she enjoyed or would love to do on a date. Within days of their individual questioning, she found herself being taken on a date.

  Jesse took her to see a romance flick. She spent most of the time making out with him in the back seat. They had a lot of wasted time to catch up on. In fact, she spent a great deal of time making out with all of her men.

  She would sit on the sofa, Michael next to her, and in the next moment, they would be cuddling and kissing and forgetting everything else. They were all driving her crazy. None of her men would go further than touching, and she was ready to explode with the pleasure they were giving her. She found herself falling to sleep at night without giving herself an orgasm. The thought of pleasuring herself without her men there to watch or be part of felt wrong.

  By the time Friday came, she was excited to the point she thought she was going to burst. She made sandwiches as she didn’t want her men to be too full to stop them from dancing. She had seduction planned for the night.

  When they were eating, she ran up the stairs to start getting dressed. She wanted everything to be perfect. Her bath was running with some salts to help relax her muscles. She turned the water off and then got in. Tonight, she wanted to go to the next step. Her relationship with her men hadn’t been going on for a week but for several years.

  She washed all the body sweat and grime of the day’s work away. Freshening up her body, she shaved her legs and armpits as hairy legs would be completely embarrassing. She wasn’t confident with waxing as it looked too painful.

  Once she was done in the bathroom, she grabbed her red dress which helped to emphasize the grace of her curves, and did not make her look like an elephant. She wrapped her hair up in a towel, pulled on her underwear, and then the dress over the top. Next she worked on her hair and makeup. She curled her red hair to give it life but also to tame the wild locks.

  For makeup she settled on the minimum to help her enhance her natural beauty. She found too much cosmetics made her look like a doll from some of those nasty horror flicks. The last thing she needed was for her men to see her as a serial killer doll. She had just finished the last coat of lipstick when someone knocked on her door.

  “Coming.” She pushed her curls up and rearranged her breasts in the dress. She slipped on the black stiletto heels. A moan of pleasure broke through her lips. They felt so good. They had to be expensive shoes.

  She opened the door. Roy was stood wearing a pair of jeans and checkered shirt. His arms bulged, and warmth spread through her. He looked so good.

  “Wow,” he said.

  Cassidy smiled and placed a hand on her hip. “What are you looking at, cowboy?”

  “I don’t think we should allow you out of this house.”

  “In your dreams. Your lady wants to go dancing, and you will oblige her,” she said, forcing him to walk backward. “Go ahead, touch me.” Before he had chance to respond, she grabbed his hands and put them on her body. She put them over her tits, down to her waist, and then passed her hips until she finished with his hands on her butt. He squeezed her ass, pulling her close.

  “You smell so fucking good.” He went to her neck, inhaled and then nibbled on her collarbone. She couldn’t help but giggle.

  “Are you going to show me downstairs to the rest of my dates?” she asked.

  “We’re going to spend the night being rock hard. You don’t play fair, Cassidy.”

  She pushed him up against the wall. She cupped his rigid erection through his jeans. “I don’t play fair. You may not be able to see my hard-on but I’m soaking wet at the thought of what each of you could do to me.”

  “Are you dripping wet right now, baby?” he asked.

  “Soaking.”

  He moaned. He grabbed her hips and thrust against her.

  “Come on. We’ve got to go dancing.” He took her hand and led her downstairs. Scott, Gary, Jesse, and Michael each had the same problem. They were practically jumping over themselves to get to her. She felt powerful at the way they were treating her. She used to think her body was repulsive with her excess weight. Her thoughts toward her body were changing.

  * * * *

  Michael couldn’t believe how amazing she looked. The red of her dress didn’t clash with her hair, and her body looked so damn good. He wanted to order her to stay home so he could fuck her on every flat surface. Most of his days were spent daydreaming about what he was going to do to her when he finally got her naked. His thoughts were filled with images of not only himself but of the other men in her life. He wanted to see her with the Walkers as much as he wanted to see her by herself.

  He grabbed his keys. “Shall we go dancing?”

  She moved over to him, tucked her arm between his. “I’m all yours, Sheriff.”

  Maybe he would get her to come down to the station in a dress with no panties and fuck her. He had so many fantasies of Cassidy which he hoped to one day play out.

  He took her out to his truck. Jesse joined them, getting in behind her. “Gary, Scott, and Roy are driving down in the other truck.”

  Michael started his truck, went into gear, and drove out of the driveway. He travelled along the dirt road until he saw the local dancing bar in the distance. The lights were aglow, and a crowd of people were already outside the place. “Looks like another busy Friday night.”

  “Are you sure you should be out dancing, Michael? What happens if a fight breaks out?” Jesse asked.

  “I’m never off duty. If a fight breaks out, then I’ll have to deal with it, but whoever stops me from having my night with Cassidy better be fucking warned.” He pulled up at the back of the parking lot. He didn’t want to be trapped in if they decided to leave early. Couples were making out on the hoods of their cars. Women were screaming and laughing, and the men were drinking hard.

  “I didn’t think it would be this busy,” she said.

  “It’s Friday, and this heat drives people crazy. Be happy they aren’t butt-ass naked and going at it like rabbits.” Michael cut the engine and stared at the bar in front. The last time he’d been inside, he had been arrested for starting a fight. “Come on. Let’s go and dance.”

  Gary pulled up behind him. Michael waited for all of them to join before they made their way into the bar. The heat hit him in the face the moment the door closed behind him. There was a live band at the front, and the place was completely filled.

  “There are way more out-of-towners here than locals,” Gary said.

  “If you guys want to go—” Cassidy said.

  “No. We just want you to be clear that with more nonlocals than locals, things could get a little rough,” Michael told her.

  “No problem. Oh, look. There’s Claire, Shane, and Liam. Come on.” She pulled away and walked toward the other three. Claire was kissing Liam while Shane caressed her leg. They broke apart the moment Cassidy sat down.

  “Can we sit with you?” she asked.

  Claire burst out laughing. “You’ve already made yourself at home. Besides, I knew you’d be here tonight, and we thought we’d save you a seat.”

  Michael nodded at the two men. Scott and Roy grabbed a few more chairs, and they all crowded the small dining table.

  “I’m going to go and get drinks,” Shane said.

  “I’ll come with you,” Gary spoke up.

  Michael looked around the room, his ins
tincts on high alert. So many people in one place, and he knew the risk was high for trouble.

  “Relax,” Cassidy said.

  “I’m trying.”

  “Then dance with me.” She stood up, and they all moved for her to get out. “This will help you to relax.”

  The song changed from a slow number to a fast, upbeat summer tune. Michael spun her round and pulled her back again. She giggled and danced down his front. He contained a moan of pleasure as she came back up his body. In no time, his attention was on her and not on the crowd of people in the bar. When the song ended and a new one began, Michael swept her up into the dance. He loved the way her body moved against him. Gary came and took over. Cassidy refused to leave the dance floor, and so Gary was the one made to dance. He went back to the table as Shane, Claire, and Liam got up to dance. The place grew busier as the night wore on. Eventually, Jesse encouraged her back to the table to drink her beer. She sat down on Roy’s lap and took a generous swig from the bottle.

  “This is so much fun,” she said.

  “Not as good as watching you move,” Michael and Gary both said in unison.

  Smiling, she finished her drink off. “I’ve got to go to the ladies’ room.”

  They all stood up. “No. I can use the bathroom on my own. I don’t need any babysitters.”

  Michael watched her go.

  “She’s really something else,” he said.

  “I can’t wait to get her home,” Scott said. They all agreed with him. Michael took a swig of his beer. Cassidy was lost to the crowds. He wanted to do so much to her body. He wondered how far Cassidy would let him go.

  Chapter Ten

  Cassidy had never had so much fun before in her life. She walked to the ladies’ room on cloud nine. For once in her life she had men who wanted her for more than sex. She knew they wanted sex with her, but it felt so much more than that. There was a line of women for the ladies’ room. She stood waiting, not even bothering to listen to the gossip. Her legs ached from all the dancing, but feeling her men around her made everything worth the few aches she got. The line went down quickly, and she used the bathroom. She stood in front of the mirror and cleaned her makeup. A few of the women were waiting, glaring at her. Cassidy ignored them, smacked her lips, and walked out. She bumped into someone who caught her from falling back.
