we’re wearing jeans and a t-shirt. If we aren’t making an effort,
why should they?”

seduce us some cowboys.”

Chapter Five
    Like every other morning since
arriving in Montana, Sakura woke up horny as heck. As had become
her routine, she lay in bed ignoring her needs and instead went
over the plans for that day, except something was
different.
    Of course things were different,
she was in a strange bed and different country, but there was
something else.
    Slowly, she tuned into the smells
and sounds coming from the kitchen as they wafted into her room.
Sakura got out of bed and rushed through getting
dressed.
    Last night after dinner no one had
said anything about meeting at the guest house. If they had, she
would’ve set the alarm to get up and make something for them to
eat, not the other way around.
    Since the first day she woke on the
ranch, she and Molly met the guys for breakfast at the main house,
and discussed their progress and plans for the day. She believed it
was a good way to start the day, both professionally and
personally. Not only did it give her a chance to see Matt and Ted,
but they took the time to talk about the project, as well as other
ranch work. They all discussed where they were on the timeline,
good and bad things they’d encountered thus far, and the next steps
to be taken.
    Sakura quickly pulled on her jeans,
tucked in her shirt before buttoning and zipping them, then finally
added a belt. Ranch work may be dirty, but it didn’t mean she
couldn’t start out the day by looking nice. The last items she put
on were her boots, which she adored. Scuffs and lines of wear were
already starting to appear, but they meant a great deal to her
because the Wilson brothers had gifted her with them.
    After she’d thanked them, Ted had
quietly confided they’d chosen red because Matt had said the color
reminded him of her painted nipples. Those few words had turned her
on, but nothing else happened. Her sex life hadn’t been fed as well
as her stomach had since coming to the Big W Ranch.
    The work was hard, physically and
mentally, and satisfying as she and Molly were their own
bosses.
    Despite what had happened in the
barn office, it was all the same. Each night she’d been treated to
gentle goodnight kisses and tender hugs from Matt and Ted before
they left her at the door. It was sweet of them, although sweet was
not how she’d expected them to handle their budding relationship.
It wasn’t what she wanted, either.
    Every night since arriving, she’d
lain alone in her bed and frustration grew even further out of
control. She wished they’d make a move, either one of them, and
give them all what they wanted.
    When they’d spoken on the first
night she was sure she’d said her nights belonged to them. Why had
they left her to sleep alone? Wake up alone? She wanted a man to
take her badly, and she wanted the person to be them, or at least
one of them. On the other hand, the project was going smoothly
which meant she couldn’t complain.
    Sakura wanted something to happen
that would hopefully see her needs for Matt and Ted were
satisfied.
    Hurrying down the hallway to the
kitchen, she stopped when she found Ted cooking breakfast. He moved
easily around the small room, gracefully working over the old white
stove in his work clothes and boots. Sakura leaned against the
doorjamb and soaked in the homey moment.
    Even though she’d traveled beyond
Osaka’s city limits, she admitted to being a woman used to living
with little exposure to the world at large. Despite the limited
travel, she’d found a sense of what home should be at the Big W
Ranch.
    Feeling like she had landed in the
right place was helped by how her heart swelled and happiness
bloomed whenever Ted or Matt were nearby. They made her feel like
she’d finally found the place where she was meant to be.
    “Morning, I didn’t know we were
meeting
