and withdrew. She hadn’t even realized he had removed his pants. Suddenly he slammed back into her.
“That is for prancing in here and making me hard before I have even had my coffee. Now tell me you want it.”
“Yes. Please. Oh, I want it.”
He smiled down at her as he gave her what she asked for. Over and over he drove into her until she was clawing at his back. He brought her to the point of release over and over and withdrew, making her growl at him. Finally he leaned over her and took her mouth in a deep kiss just as she exploded around him. She fit him so tight she felt like a glove as she squeezed him in her orgasm. She sighed as she felt him pulse inside her. He held her tight as he emptied himself and groaned her name.
Chapter 11
The next two days were quiet as they worked to get the paper out in time. It was the first week that her name would be in print. She was excited and they worked for hours making sure everything was just right. That was, when he kept his hands to himself, which wasn’t very often.
She was sitting at her desk looking through the article for the fashion column when she heard a knock at her door. It couldn't be Craig, Keeara knew that. So she opened the door to reveal an older man whose long gray hair swept over his left eye.
“Hello, can I help you?”
“You must be Ms. Keeara.” The way he said her name made her instantly feel uneasy. He spit it at her then sucked at his teeth like the name left a bad taste in his mouth.
Her back went straight as she prepared herself for an onslaught. “Yes I am. How can I help you?"
Just then, to her relief, Craig walked through the door. “Uncle Stephan. What are you doing here?”
The old man turned towards the voice and snarled. “Just seeing the girl who has you so wrapped up. You know your great great grandfather is turning over in his grave. But then again, you aren’t really a true part of the Jenkins line are you, boy?"
Keeara watched as Craig’s back stiffened at the insult. “Well, when I look back, my great grandfather Tyler was the only sensible one out of the bunch. But that's really a given now isn't it?”
“Look here, boy. I don’t care how rich your momma and daddy are, or how civilized you think you are. I will show you a thing or two about respect if you keep it up.”
Craig’s face was beginning to turn red. "Oh you wanna talk about respect? How 'bout you barging in here and harassing my employee and not to mention my girlfriend!” Keeara looked up at him at that. He was about to go into a tirade when he was interrupted by a soft voice.
“I suggest you take your leave, Stephan, before things get ugly. I don’t want to call Carter in.” Keeara turned to see her mother standing there with her hands on her hips. She was glaring at the older man. Her eyes had a sparkle to them that was defiant and challenging.
Stephan turned around at the woman and shot daggers while grinning. “Well, look who it is. The little waif who has this whole damn town wrapped around her little finger. I wonder why that is? You can call Carter, missy. He ain’t in office no more. He has no grounds.”
She quirked an eyebrow at him. “Well, I think one call to his son and this could get sorted out, considering he is the sheriff of this town.”
“You high falutin' folk. Fine. I’ll leave. But know that trouble’s a comin'.”
“Why, Stephan, is that a threat.” Her mother had walked up to him and put her face in his. Keeara had never seen her mother so pissed in her life. The tips of her ears were blood red with her rage and she looked like she was about to clock the old man in the nose. Craig saw the danger and quickly started shuffling his uncle to the door. “Time to go, Uncle Stephan.”
“Fine.” The man turned to leave and turned around to face the trio. “You remember what I said now. Imma deal with ya later, boy.” He turned a glare
