balance.  She felt a hand on her
back to steady her and looked up into Dean’s dark eyes.  She thanked him and
stood up to get closer to the puppies.
    She smiled and watched Reggie sit down among the whimpering
puppies, heedless of the dirt on her dress.  Her face was a picture of delight;
Lucy wished she had her phone with her so she could take a picture.  Reggie
looked so happy right now, just like she had when she sat in her mother’s lap. 
    Max stepped past her and leaned down to pick up a rather
boisterous pup.  He had a big belly and he licked at his hands.  Max came back
to Lucy and placed the pup in her arms.  He watched her when she giggled and
pulled her bundle closer to her chest and he licked her neck.  Max scrutinized
her for a minute, her eyes glittered with humor, and she was very pretty.  He
glanced up and saw Dean watching at her.   He had a hungry look in his eyes. 
Bummer, he would have to admire this lady from a distance.  It had been a long
time since he had seen Dean interested in a woman.  Too bad it was this one. 
Max hated to admit defeat, but Dean was his friend as well as his boss.
    “Make sure you close the gate when you’re done Reggie.”  Max
said.  He turned towards Lucy and nodded his head to her.  “It was nice to meet
you Lucy.”  He looked at Dean when he glanced at him.  “I have the ledgers done
in the office; I have to head over to the other stables for a few minutes. 
I’ll be back after a bit.”  Dean gave him a quick nod and then he left.
    “Do you like dogs Lucy?”  Dean asked.  He leaned against the
doorjamb as he watched her.
    Lucy looked up and met Dean’s eyes.  He stood in the middle
of a stable and he could easily grace the cover of a GQ magazine.  She
still couldn’t believe that she had sex with him.  She knew she was blushing
when he gave her a very sexy smile.  Great, here she was staring at him and he
was waiting for her to answer his question.  She licked her dry lips and just
nodded yes to him. 
    Dean’s gaze narrowed on her lips as her pink tongue peaked
out for a second.  Interesting, he made her nervous, even after they had spent
the night together.  “I think he likes you.”  He nodded to the pup she held in
her arms.
    Lucy smiled up at him and then looked down at the pup she
held.  His nose rested against her chest as he looked into her eyes, sighing as
she rubbed his belly and murmured to him.
    Dean smiled; he would have to make sure that Lucy took this
little guy home when she left.  He felt odd thinking that way, but there was no
way he could think long term with her.  He’d never had any relationships that
lasted.  He didn’t think that Lucy would be any different.  It didn’t help that
most women were only interested in his money.  He realized that after seeing
her in Max’s arms he had to touch her somehow.  He had to stake his claim on
her now.  He leaned out the doorway and called for Jimmy.  Once the young man
showed up he told him to take Reggie up to the house so she wouldn’t miss
lunch. 
    Lucy laid the now sleeping puppy next to Ruby.  She stroked
her silky ears and told her what a good mom she was.  She stood back up
prepared to leave with Reggie, but Dean held out his hand to her, stopping her
from leaving.
    “Reggie go with Jimmy, you can see Lucy later.”  Dean watched
as Reggie carefully closed the gate.
    “Okay, I’ll see you later Lucy.”  She waved to her as she
took Jimmy’s hand and walked with him to the house, unconcerned that Dean was
keeping her new friend behind with him.
    Dean took her hand and pulled her towards the office, he was
in such a hurry he didn’t even realize that she was barely keeping up with
him. 
    “Dean, what the hell are you doing?”  Lucy was gasping by
the time he pulled her into a room and closed the door.  “What…” that was all
she got out before he pushed her up against the door and kissed her fiercely. 
    Dean didn’t even
