Chapter Five

They headed over to a mysterious land a good ways away from the castle.  It was a small precipice, only accessible
by
flight
, and when they got there, Asch morphed back into a human.  He patted the ground next to him, and Hilda took a seat next to him.

“What’s up?” she asked.

“Well, I wanted to apologize.  I realized that I made a very hasty
judgment
on you initially.  I’m sorry, I’m a bit of an ass at
first,
but I do care.  I care about you a lot, and the fact that you stayed with me makes me happy,” he said.

“Same.  I’m really sorry for making hasty
judgments
as well.  You’re not a freak, but rather a person that I care about a lot.  I was
apprehensive
about you when you got hurt.  At first, I thought that you were an asshole, that you didn’t like me because of a social class difference.  But now I realize that I was very quick to judge as well.  I’m so sorry,” she told him.

He looked at her with a glance, nodding in assent.

“I’m sorry too.  I really am.  I should’ve been better, and I should’ve been smarter about my
judgments
.  I was an ass,” he told her.

“I was an ass too,” she replied.  She realized at that moment that Asch wasn’t a bad person, just a bit rough around the edges.  It was obvious that he did care about
her,
however, and she felt the same way too.  Was this what love was?  She was okay with it if that was the case.

The two of them both looked at one another, realizing the feelings that they did share were a feeling akin to love.

“I think I’m falling for
you,
Hilda.  And I think this might work,” he stated.

“I think so too,” she replied.

The two of them pushed their lips together, a hasty and unsure kiss.  It felt strange, and she didn’t know what to do about all of this.  It was obvious that the two of them would need to work something out, and she knew for sure that it would only get better with time.

The two of them started to kiss and mingle their lips softly with one another, both of them lightly moaning against the other person.  Soon, it became a fury of lips, and soon they were hastily kissing and making out with one another.  He slipped his tongue into her mouth, and Hilda accepted it.  He grasped her curvy body, touching it sensually.

Hilda was amazed at how good this felt.  She hadn’t been with a guy in forever, mainly due to the fact she had to take care of her mom.  This didn’t
feel
like an ordinary encounter, but rather an encounter where she would be able to express the love that she had for this man.

He pushed her down, his lips still against her own, and soon his body started to lightly grind against hers.  He let his hands gently massage against the curves of her body, loving the way she felt under him.  Hilda moaned, her dark hair spread out in all directions.  Asch’s eyes tantalized her, and as his lips continued to dot over hers, he looked at her with a lustful and predatory gaze.  She took a fist full of his silver hair, petting it and touching it.  He let out a small moan, loving the way that it felt. 

It was hot, she had to admit.  She could already feel her pussy wetting with desire, and soon Asch took the liberty to kiss down her body, lightly touching and licking the various areas until he got to her collarbone.  He left a mark there, but Hilda didn’t care. She wanted to be branded by this man, to be taken by this
gorgeous
stud.

He then pulled her shirt over her head, and Hilda blushed, gasping as his hands reached up to massage her breasts.  She moaned, bucking her hips up as he let his fingers dance
against
the edge of her breasts before letting the pads of his fingers touch the tip of her nipple.  She moaned, and soon her body craved more attention.  He didn’t waste any time undoing the clasp on her bra, taking off the garment and grasping her luscious and giant breasts.

She blushed as his hands
bushed
her nipples, the difference in temperature
apparent
.  She moaned at the sensation, and soon he started to trace his finger against the tip of her nipple before lightly pressing into it.  She let out a gasp, screaming out as she felt him continue to use his hands to manipulate her nipples.  They hardened at his touch, and soon his tongue flicked over the edge of the areola, touching the puckered area until he got to the bud.  He sucked on the nipple, letting his tongue swish over the hard flesh.  She groaned, feeling her body start to become undone through just a few simple touches.  She wanted this, and Asch did as well.

He pulled away, pushing his silver hair back and looking at the flushed, breathy sight in front of him.  He felt his cock lightly twinge in hardness, and he knew that it was only a matter of time before he took things further.  He moved his hands down to her pants, taking them off in a swift fashion.  She moaned, feeling the cold air against her clothed pussy.  Of course, he slipped her panties off within seconds of that, and soon she shivered at the sudden exposure.  Asch also took the liberty to shed his shirt and pants as well, the only thing being left on was his boxers.  They were already struggling to hold his aching cock, and Hilda moaned in anticipation as she looked at him.

He suddenly pushed his finger against her clit, moving past the hood to the bundle of nerves.  He stroked the area, lightly pawing at it and making her go crazy
under
him.  His other finger ghosted against her entrance, circling around the area.  She let out a small series of moans as he continued to do this, pumping his finger in there while his other hand pawed at her clit.  It was only a matter of time before she became a screaming, writhing mess, and Asch knew that she wouldn’t be able to hold back for much longer.

He pulled down his boxers, grabbing a condom from his small wallet.  He always had one just in case, and soon he sheathed his throbbing member with it.  He spread her legs apart, pushing his
throbbing
member into her.

She moaned, feeling his cock fill her up completely.  He started to thrust in and out of her, starting off slowly and then moving at a faster pace.  She was screaming out, happy that there wasn’t anyone around to hear them as he
began
to ravage her body, loving the way her wet pussy took him all the way in.  the sounds of skin slapping against one another and heavy breathing were the only things the two of them could hear right now, and Hilda was happy to oblige this man and make him go crazy with desire.

She was already at her edge, and after a couple of moments, she hit her sweet spot, and she cried out in pleasure.  She felt her hips buck, her pussy
tighten
, and soon she came hard against him, loving the way that her body tightened around his aching member before she came hard.

At that moment, the tightness of her pussy was enough for him.  He let out a cry as well, feeling his body start to tense up as his cock spilled its release out.  He loved how it felt, and after a moment or so, he slipped out, looking at her.

“So I guess that was it.  It was love,” he said.

“It sure was.  I’m not used to these feelings, but I hope I can get used to them,” she replied.

“You will.  I’m not used to it too.  This is the first time I’ve loved another person, and I’m glad that I do,” he replied.

She nodded, feeling happy with the way everything panned out.  They kissed for a while, cuddling up to one another and enjoying their presence.

The two of them arranged to get married after that.  Gaius made sure that Hilda’s mother was taken care of, and soon she was treated by the best medical professionals out there.  He made sure that all of the bills were taken care of, and soon her mother was back to health.  Her mother was happy to be alive, and she immediately approved of her and Asch together.  Gaius was very nice as well, and even Hilda’s mother thought that he was attractive.

The two of them continued to explore their love for one another, and Hilda realized that she learned something that was more important than anything else.  That was acceptance, a concept that she never really realized could be a problem for her.  She definitely enjoyed the feelings that she got from this, and she knew that although the path was rocky at first, they would be okay with whatever would come about.

The wedding was set a year from when they realized their love, and a year came quickly.  Her mother had recovered back to health, and she was sitting in the front row, watching as her daughter started to walk down the aisle.  She could feel her tears welling in her eyes as Gaius took her hand and escorted her to the front.  She didn’t have anyone else as a father figure, and Gaius took care of both Asch and her equally.  When the preacher said those words, the two of them knew that this was it, that this was the start of the rest of their lives.

The ceremony went without a hitch, and Hilda felt happiness in ways she never expected to feel.  The two of them sealed their marriage with a kiss, and it was obvious that they would be able to have the life that they both wanted without fail.  It would be okay, and it would always be better for the two of them.  After all, they would continue to learn acceptance and understand one another
thoroughly
.  It would be a journey they both would enjoy, and after a while they would finally understand the way things were, and they would continue to have a great experience with one another no matter what.  After a bit of time, the two of them started to grow to love one another in ways they never expected, learning the core elements of acceptance and understanding their feelings.

The two of them did an action that was special, and that was living happily ever after.  Hilda never thought that she would get to this point in her life, for she always thought that happily ever afters were for those lucky girls, but right now, at that moment, as she got married to him on that platform, she realized that she finally did make her dream come true, and she would live happily ever after - no matter what.

THE END

 

WESTERN BILLIONAIRE Romance - Gold in Texas

Three months and I
was
finally hitting my stride.  I could feel my hands starting to grow tougher, and my legs were growing stronger.  The best part of the whole thing
was being
able to ride a horse almost as much as I ever wanted.

“Hey Jennie,” Larry shouted from the barn, “Buck said it would be a good time to get the livestock into the barn.  Said there’s a storm
comin’
up,
and he don’t
wanna
see
nothin’
bad happen.”

“I’m on it,” I shouted back.  It wasn’t hard, herding
in
the few animals they kept on the ranch.  Just a couple milking cows, some chickens, and a few horses.  I didn’t mind herding them in, either.

Larry already had the door open for all the animals as I
shooed
them in.  Only took about fifteen minutes or so. 

I could already see the storm
off
the plains, a crack of thunder lit the sky in the distance and the blackened clouds rolled
slowly in our direction
.  I never liked storms where I grew up, but out here it was like watching a masterpiece unfold.

I can’t say I ever really believed in a greater power until I got the chance to look out
along
the horizon and view the perfect simplicity of the landscape. 

“Jennie, you gonna to get inside?  I bet Mike is already
lookin’
for
ya
,” said Larry, peeking over my shoulder.

“Don’t know why he’d be
lookin’
for me, not like I have any chores left for the day,” I said as I wheeled around toward the house.

It was a small
house
, barely two stories. The white walls displayed their age as though rings on a
tree
and the windows were still a bit dirtied from the harsh winds that swept up dust from all over. 

I
walked proudly
toward the home while pulling off my work gloves.  I flexed my hand and could feel the ache of a hard day’s work in them. 

The screen door screeched open as I tugged on it, and walked inside with my boots clattering on the
hard wood
floor.  The inside was much different from the outside, the wood flooring was clean, and most of it
was covered
in rugs.  The furniture was in good repair and was some of the most comfortable I’d ever
slept on
.  The kitchen was a bit older, but nothing
was broken,
so there was no need to change it out.

“Mike, what you want now?” I asked, parading toward the kitchen.

Mike was sitting
behind
the round table in the corner, with papers sprawled out all over.  He had a small pair of reading glasses perched on the tip of his nose.  I would have
laughed
if I hadn’t known how much he hated being made fun of for his poor near-sightedness.

“Jennie, what’s this I hear about you
gettin’
all riled up about the neighbors?” he asked calmly.

I pulled out a chair and plopped myself down
in
it.

“Listen, the Cobb’s keep on
grazin’
their cattle on your land.  I can’t help it if a shotgun goes off in my vicinity that scares them all off.”

Buck leaned against the door frame behind me, all six and a half feet of him.  If I didn’t know him, then I would’ve made sure to steer clear of his path whenever possible.  But, knowing that he was about as quick to anger as a rock was to flying, I always like having him around.

Mike stifled a laugh, but Buck uttered a raucous.

“Did you
really
scare the Cobb’s ‘stock off with a shotgun, Jennie?” Buck asked.

“All I know is a loud shot rang out from my vicinity, as I said. 
Nothin’
wrong with loud noises,” I followed up with calmly.

I kicked my boots up onto the table and leaned back in my chair.  It didn’t look like Mike was having any of it tonight.  He reached over and smacked my boots off the table.

“Geez, Jennie, didn’t yer ma raise ya right?  Keep yer feet off the table,” he started. “Now look, Cobb says he’s getting’ sour milk now.  Wants me to buy him a new cow,
ya
know how much money I have to afford something like that?”

I paused to think about it.

“You don’t have to think that hard, I got nothing, Jennie.  Hell, I’m barely scraping by as it is with this.  If I don’t get
really
lucky here soon
enough,
then I’m going to have to sell off the whole thing.”

I sighed.

“Listen, I’m sorry Mike.  I won’t do
nothin’
like that again.  Maybe I can go over and ease things with the
Cobb’s
as well.  That
is,
if you want me to.”

Mike nodded and waved his hand, trying to get me to leave.

I took the hint and clomped my way out of the kitchen.  Buck followed close behind.

I sat myself down on the porch of the house; a swinging bench was tied up along one of the rafters and was by far the best seat for watching passing storms. 

Buck must’ve had the same
idea
because he took a seat right next to me.

“You know he likes you,” Buck said.

I rolled my eyes like always.

“Buck, that man would like a
600-pound
gorilla if it could solve all his financial trouble.  I’m neither.  I might be the only woman on the ranch, but proximity is no excuse.”

Buck started rocking slowly; I took a moment to kick off my boots.  I thought of the first time I put those things
on,
and they killed my feet, but now it was like wearing a
cloud
if a cloud weighed my feet down like a brick.

Mike bought those for me the day I started working here.  I don’t think he approved of my hiking boots; he wanted me in real solid leather that wouldn’t wear out after a
couple of
weeks of real labor. 
He
was right, and I knew it.  My old hiking boots wouldn’t have lasted past the first week with the amount of walking he had me doing.

“Hey Buck, why does Mike keep going out to that old drill in the yard?  Does he
really
think he’s
goin’
to strike oil out here?”

Buck thought for a moment.

“I think Mike has a lot of hope.  Fella came through here about
five
years ago, telling him his land might be ripe for the picking.  I think they were trying to buy the plot off him for
cheap,
so they could bring in some big equipment and get it out themselves.

“Hell, the neighbors to the north sold off their plot.  For a while we saw truck after truck of heavy equipment driving through, dropping off drills and all that junk for digging.  They must’ve
dug up
every inch of that land and
didn’t
find a dang thing.”

“So Mike just keeps thinking he might get
lucky,
and the professionals missed something?”

“Well, from what I hear, it’s a bit of a tricky business.  People
miss
things all the time around here.  I always bet on Mike, he’s a good guy, knows what he wants.  That’s better than most.”

“As long as he doesn’t ask me to work the thing, I won’t get in his way.”

I sat for a while and watched the storms pass.  The twilight turned to
darkness,
and the only light that could
be seen
was that distant
light
of the barn. 

Rain
came down in pellets, soaking everything that
wasn’t covered
in seconds.  I listened to the rain pelt against the old wood siding on the house, and the thunder that roared its way over the plain.  It was a peaceful raucous.  

As the rain settled into a constant drizzle we were all called in for supper, Buck and I met up with a drenched Larry and filed in around the table.

Mike pulled a
couple
steaks off the stove top and served them up.  He knew how to cook them well, and it
tasted like
I could still hear the cow mooing.  I can’t say I liked it at first; he always made me try something a few times before giving up on me.  I would usually cave in and give it a try, and then hate it for a while.  That was just how life was on the ranch.  Larry and Buck felt like the brothers I always wanted, and Mike was always the responsible caretaker. 

It brought up memories
from
the city; nasty old thoughts that would consume me for a while before fading away.  I started thinking about my
sister
and wondered what she might be
up to
.  It was too soon to call, though.  I needed more time to leave the old life behind before letting them know where I was.

“Alright, tomorrow is a big day.  Jennie and
I gotta
head into town and fix a few things with the bank.  Buck, you and Larry check the fields and make sure this storm hasn’t destroyed anything we need.  We should be back before noon.”

I nodded and finished up supper, being careful to leave a little behind for Rusty.  I set my plate
to
the
floor,
and Rusty jumped up like she was a puppy, and the old dog lapped on the plate, being careful
not to spill
a thing.

“Rusty, why can’t you just eat the food I buy for you?” Mike sighed.

I pulled the plate off the floor when the pooch
was done
with it and tossed it in the country basin that had dishes already piling up inside.

“I’m
goin’
to get a shower before bed, G’night guys,” I said.

“Night, Jennie,” they all replied.

I stripped off my dirty shirt while walking up the stairs; I doubted any of them would be staring at me from the kitchen.  My muscles were
tender,
so I rubbed them as I walked to my room. 

It was smaller than I was used to, but plenty of space for a dresser and a bed.  Although, that’s about all I had, I barely had
use
for the
dresser
to be honest. 

I grabbed my towel and headed off to the bathroom.  The room was a bit cramped, with the ceiling angling low and at
places,
you had to duck under a beam.  But, the claw footed tub was perfect for showers and soaking.  Granted, I had to work my hardest to avoid it becoming a peep show for the boys downstairs. 

I always gave a quick look for any new holes that may have popped up in the walls since I’d last
been in

For the most part,
they stopped, but it never hurt to double check.

The water warmed me to the bone.  And, I took a little extra time for myself in the shower.  I could feel my muscles were getting stronger in all the right places, my skin seemed
firmer
than when I first moved out this way.  I maybe have been a bit curvier than most
women,
but I don’t think anyone ever minded a little extra curve. 

I wasn’t overweight by any means, though, just rounder.  I liked my body, though, even though I always found a new bruise that would need
nursing
or a new cut that needed bandaging. 

I tugged at my towel on the nearby hook while shutting off the water.  It was quite steamy in the bathroom, so I took my time drying off.  I heard a knock at the door.

“Jennie, you almost
done
,” I heard Buck ask.

“Gimme one second, Buck,” I replied.

I wrapped my towel around me as best I
could,
and gathering up my things, exited the bathroom.  I swear
Buck’s
eyes grew three sizes while he stared. 

I couldn’t help but giggle.  I tip-toed quickly back to my room, trying to keep my feet from freezing on the
cool
wood floors. 

Once back in my room I clicked the lock, and threw off my towel, collapsing into my comfy bed.  I wasn’t in the mood to do anything else, I was relaxed, and the sound of the rain pattering
against
the roof of my bedroom was like a melodic choir, drumming me off to sleep.

 

2.

“Alright Larry, you’re in charge of the ranch for the day.  We’ll be back before noon.”

We rode out in Mike’s old pickup.  I was amazed the thing still ran as well as it
did;
it looked like it had
been put
through its fair share of
paces
