fridge sat beside a door which
Callie assumed was the pantry.
    “Have a look around. Open cupboards and do whatever it
is that women do when they check out a house. This is your home now and I want
you to be happy here.”
    “I’ve never seen anything like this. It’s just mind
blowing.” She walked over to the pantry and opened the door. A light switched
on automatically and she stepped inside. The room was almost as large as her
bedroom at home. The shelves were laden with food, enough to see them through
whatever the weather could throw at them. Chance walked up to the door.
    “Out in the barn is a root cellar too. Don’t know if
you know what they are, but basically they’re an underground storage room for
food. The winters can get really severe here and a lot of the locals like to
put down their own food from their gardens to see them through to the next
season.”
    “Do you have a garden?”
    “No, not yet. Not really my thing, but if you want
one, you just have to say the word.”
    She gazed at him, amazed at how her life was turning
out. “I’d love one. We had a small one at home, but Mum struggled to grow much
because to the lack of water and the damned rabbits. If she left the covers off
the vegetable beds the animals would take everything. Even the crows got really
good at taking her cabbages.”
    “Just let me know what you want and it will be done.
There are plenty of men in town who know how to build vegetable plots.
Landscapers and the like.”
    “Thanks.”
    “Let me show you upstairs.” He held out his hand and
Callie linked her fingers with his. Together they walked from the kitchen to
the hallway and started to climb the wide wooden stairs. He pointed past the
stair to the back of the house. “Back there is the laundry, a bathroom, and an
office.” They continued up the stairs. At the top, Chance paused to rub his
hip.
    “Our room is the end door. Follow me.” He reached for
her hand again and led her past several doors to either side of the wide
hallway to the master bedroom. Chance opened the door and let her walk in
first. She stepped into the room and paused looking at the huge bed. His hand
rested on her shoulder and she jumped. “Plenty of room for both of us, but if
you like, you can keep your clothes in one of the spare rooms until the
brothers come around to my way of thinking.” He walked over to the bed and sat
down, letting his cane lean against the edge of the mattress. “Shouldn’t make
much difference to you and me though.” He smiled wiggling his eyebrows and
Callie grinned.
    “No, it shouldn’t. Are you sure this is how you want
to play it? I mean, I could stay in the other room if you like. I wouldn’t take
offence.”
    “I would. I want my wife in my bed whenever possible.
Come here.” He held his arms out and she grinned, keen to get another handful
of the naked chest she woke up on this morning.
    Callie stood between his legs and put her hands on his
shoulders. She dipped her head and placed her mouth on his. Gently at first
they kissed, discovering the bond that was quickly building up between them.
    His arms came around her back, lowering to cup her
butt and pulling her closer, and Callie pushed herself against him suddenly
desperate for more. Moving her hips against him, the heat building in her body.
    She moaned as he pulled her shirt from her jeans. His
fingers reached up to undo her buttons and she shrugged it from her shoulders
to drop on the floor. Chance’s roughened hands circled her waist, his breath
hot against her belly. She gasped as he dipped his tongue into her belly button
while he popped the button on her pants. Callie helped him push her jeans down
and stepped out of them, kicking them away. He gripped her butt in his hands
and lifted her to her tip toes.
    Callie cried out as he ran his tongue over the front
of her panties, hinting of what was to come. His fingers dug under the elastic
and suddenly she was standing before him naked and
