Prudence sat in the barn and waited for what seemed like forever. Finally she heard the creak of the door and the sound of his boots on the ladder up to the loft where she was. He had come. He'd decided to run away with her. But they would have to hurry. Her birthday was approaching and she would be expected to marry the man that her sisters had managed to escape. It bothered her that she was leaving that fate to her younger sister, Destiny. But then her sisters had done the same to her. She had to believe that Destiny would manage to escape the same fate as well.
His broad shoulders filled her vision as he topped the ladder. His smile was the same as every other day and still made her heart beat a little faster. She'd known him since they were kids. Loved him since they were in junior high. And somehow this wonderful man loved her as well. They'd grown together and managed to hide their relationship from everyone around them. He'd been her first lover, her only lover and she knew that no one would ever make her feel as he did with just a tilt of his lips.
"Johnny," she sighed as he finally cleared the ladder and moved towards where she lay on the blanket waiting for him.
He was already undoing the buttons on his shirt and shrugging out of it by the time he knelt beside her. He was big, topping out at six feet three inches with broad shoulders and hard muscles from all the work he did on his family's ranch. And he was hers, all hers. He loved her and it was that love that would set her free from the fate her father had stuck his daughters with.
She reached for him as he knelt over her, his legs straddling hers. She loved the feel of his warm skin, relished the way it felt against hers. Dark hair sprinkled across his chest before dropping into a straight line down his stomach to his cock. He'd offered to shave it for her once but she had refused. She'd told him that she loved the way it felt raking across her nipples and he'd never offered again.
