Mountain Man's Little Sister: A Mountain Man Romance

by Claire Angel

  “You look beautiful,” Walden told me as I smiled, covering his hands with mine.

  “Thank you. You look great yourself,” I murmured as heat and shock filled my body.

  “I made tri-tip for dinner with some roasted vegetables and salad. I hope that sounds good.” He pulled me closer and I nodded, appreciating the warmth burning through my sweater.

  I’d skipped the jacket but thought better of it as I considered how cold it might be outside.

  “Perfect,” I replied as I turned to face him, standing on my toes to kiss him.

  I craved it. I needed his lips against mine and Walden held me tight as he slowly moved his face, deepening it. God, he was so sensual and made me feel like nothing could touch me. I never felt that way with Penn.

  I slipped my arms around his waist as he slid a hand into my hair, tugging gently as I felt the throbbing start between my legs. It was going to be a miracle if I held off with him. He was both soothing and addicting at the same time and my body would betray me. I moaned as he tugged me against him, clawing his back.

  Walden growled against me. “I need to stop this. Penny. I want to take this slow with you and I am about to carry you to my bedroom and…make you mine.”

  “Has anyone ever told you about pregnancy hormones?” I asked before blushing deeply. There was a downfall to knowing someone for a long time.

  “I haven’t but we’ll explore that later. Let’s eat.”

  I followed Walden to the kitchen that took up a good part of the space in the cabin, seeing the steak on a plate with the vegetables in a casserole dish. Everything smelled amazing and I looked around, trying to guess which cupboard held the dishes. Walden chuckled as I opened one, then two.

  “The next one, Pen.”

  I looked at him as he watched me with warmth flowing from his eyes, smiling softly.

  We plated the food and took it to the bistro table that was in the corner of the room. It was surrounded by windows and I imagined it was beautiful in the morning. I couldn’t see anything right now. Walden got us some water and I realized for a moment that I couldn’t have wine for a while. Well, maybe I could but I would need to look into that.

  We chatted over dinner, the kind of conversation that people that already knew each other shared. We laughed at old memories and got to know each other as the adults that we were. Walden dug deep to get to know who I was.

  I watched as he dumped the dishes into the sink before leading me to the couch.

  “We could do those first,” I suggested as he shook his head.

  “It’s time to relax.” He sat down and drew me beside him, stroking my hair as he smiled. “Is it weird that you feel right here?”

  “I feel the same way. I just don’t want you to feel obligated to me. None of this is your responsibility,” I reminded him, smiling as he kissed me again.

  “I wanted you from the moment I walked into your mama’s house. You’re beautiful because you are you, Penny. You always have been. I am not going to let you go now. The baby is just a bonus,” He assured me before kissing me again.

  “You don’t mind that I am having another man’s baby?” My voice was a whisper as he pulled back to stare into my eyes.

  “It’s part of you,” He said gently as I pressed my lips together.

  Walden kissed me again, his mouth claiming mine as he pulled me against him.

  Our kisses grew hungry and my body screamed for him to take me. I wanted that big body hovering over me, inside of me as he filled me. The sudden need shocked me, but I pulled him closer, dragging my tongue against his.

  “Penny,” Walden moaned as he kissed me harder, his large hands cupping my ass as he dragged my body over his. “I want you. I want you but if we do this, you are mine.”

  “I am,” I told him as his eyes widened. “I am not the casual kind of girl, Walden. I never was.”

  “I know. I paid attention,” He said before leaning in to kiss me again.

  We both gave in to the lust that blended with a growing friendship, but Walden took it slow. He kissed me to the point where I forgot my own name before carrying me to his room.

  Walden lifted my sweater over my head before lifting his Henley over his shoulders with that one hand motion that only men could do. His body was stunning. I gasped as I looked at his corded muscles and tattoos that were on his chest. I covered my lace covered breasts shyly, but he reached out to pull my hands away.

  “I want to see you,” He told me huskily as his eyes dragged down my body. I knew I wasn’t showing yet, but I still felt self-conscious about my body. “You’re stunning, Penny.” Walden cupped my face and kissed me softly, making me mold against him as I moaned.

  My nipples hardened against him and I slid my hands behind his shoulders as I grabbed him.

  Walden cupped my ass and I pressed closer. He lifted his hands to the hem of my pants and I wiggled to tell him to take them off. Walden stripped me gently, telling me to get on the bed as I flushed a deep pink. I did, sitting down before I moved back to the pillows, watching him tug his jeans off. My mouth dropped open as I took in his size, wondering if he would fit.

  Walden moved over me, kissing my mouth before peppering kisses down my body. He pulled my bra off and teased my nipples as I moaned his name. I never needed a man as completely as I needed this one. He moved down my stomach and spread my legs before pressing his mouth to my lace underwear.

  “You smell so sweet,” Walden told me as I trembled before him.

  He slipped the material down my legs as I watched him, lost in the moment. He crouched over me, his huge mouth covering me as his tongue dragged against my slick folds. I came the first time as he clutched my legs, adding pressure to me as he sucked my clit into his mouth.

  When I was finished, Walden pulled back and moved over me before he kissed me hungrily. My taste was all over his lips and I moaned softly as he eased himself between my legs.

  “I love tasting your sweet honey, Penny. So, fucking hot,” Sweet Walden cursing made me shudder as he watched me. “I’m clean, Penny.”

  “I’m clean and you don’t have to worry about knocking me up,” I teased him as his eyes darkened.

  “Spread your legs,” He urged me with fire in his eyes.

  I complied as his tip brushed against me.

  “I’m going to go slow for you.” Walden kissed me as he spread me further open with his knees.

  He slid inside of me slowly, making me cry out as I arched my back against him. Walden soothed me with his lips and words as he eased in, filling me as I gripped him. It had been a while for me and I closed my eyes as he stretched me open in the best way.

  Chapter 8

  Walden

  Penny looked gorgeous under me as I gazed down her body. Her skin was pale, but her nipples were a deep pink as they pebbled for my mouth. She was exquisite I every way. Her taste made me want to take her hard and deep.

  This was Penny though. I wanted to love her and cherish her. I wanted to show her how special she was when that ungrateful husband of hers did nothing of the sort. I wanted to worship her.

  I took my time with my hands and lips. When I was inside of her, it took all of my self-control not to move slowly. I didn’t want to hurt her and she felt too damn good around just my head.

  I couldn’t believe that I was here with Penny with Mark’s blessing. He warned me not to hurt her but also acknowledged that he recognized that I cared for her. I agreed. We shook on it before Bri hugged me and told me to make Penny feel like the princess that she was.

  I planned the perfect date that didn’t include sex. I was willing to wait as long as she wanted to for that while I cooked for her and spoiled her. It was her kiss and the need in her eyes that shifted my focus and here she was, spread open for me.

  I moved slowly and watched her response as I moved. I loved the way her body trembled for me when she came with my name on her lips. When Penny whimper
ed and rocked forward, I knew that she was ready for more and slowly buried myself inside of her. She scratched at my back and I pushed in, feeling her squeeze me with her pussy.

  “Penny. You feel so damn good.” I moaned as I bottomed out, pushing her legs back.

  She was shorter than I was, but we fit perfectly together. My large body covered her smaller one and my big cock filled her small pussy, making me feel like she was made for me. I started to move faster as she moved with me, staring down at her body as her tits bounced with the movement. We found a rhythm and I watched her break apart under me before jerking one more time and filling her.

  A part of me wanted this to be my baby growing inside of her. I imagined being the one to cum inside of her and knocking her up, making me hate her ex for having her first.

  I held myself up on my elbows for a moment as I groaned her name, blending with the sounds that she was making. Penny was perfect and now she was mine. I pressed my lips to hers gently, breathing her in as we recovered from our release.

  I rolled beside her, resting my head on a pillow as I gazed at her in the moonlight that shone through the window. Penny looked beautiful. I reached out a hand to stroke her stomach, watching her nipples harden as she shivered at my touch.

  “That was amazing,” She breathed as I circled my finger gently over her skin, memorizing how soft it was.

  I’d never felt this way with a woman before. I knew that I always kept it casual with other women and kept my walls up. That was a product of my childhood. A few friends broke through and got to know me and my family meant the world to me. Something warmed in my chest at the thought of making a family with her, starting with this baby and then giving her ours. Ideas filled my head as I leaned forward to kiss her shoulder, feeling her turn to gaze at me.

  “I love that you’re in my bed,” I told her as she smiled. “I want you to stay the night with me.”

  “Is that a bad thing? Will my family be waiting up for me?” Penny wondered as I leaned in to kiss her.

  “I think they might expect this, Penny. It’s fast but this feels right to me.”

  She let out a shaky breath and slipped her hand into my hair. It was pulled back when the night started but was now wild around my shoulders. She’d ripped the rubber band out and grabbed it as I fucked her hard and fast. Penny lifted her mouth to mine, kissing me hard as I leaned over her to deepen it.

  We made love again. I pulled Penny on top of me and let her control the pace, pleased when she started pushing harder against me. I didn’t think I’d ever get enough of this woman. We finished and she dropped to my chest, breathing heavily with her head on my shoulder. I stroked a hand down her skin.

  “Want some cake?” I asked as she giggled.

  “I’d love some. Water too.”

  Penny rose first before I followed, slipping on some lounge pants and tossing her a long t-shirt. Penny slipped it over her head and pulled her underwear on, making me stare at her.

  “What?”

  “I think you look sexy in my shirt,” I told her as she glanced down.

  “It’s a dress on me.” The gray material hung down practically to her knees and she ran a hand through her hair before heading to the kitchen.

  I followed, and she got us water from the tap while I grabbed a knife to cut the cake.

  “Did you make this?” I asked her as she bit her lip.

  “Mom and Bri helped me. Mom remembered how much you loved chocolate cake and couldn’t stand up to bake for too long,” She admitted, and I chuckled. “They’re happy for us.”

  I sliced two pieces and we took them to the couch with the water, cuddling up while we ate.

  I found a late-night talk show on the television as I enjoyed the sweet cake and perfect thick frosting. I focused more on her smile as she enjoyed her food, laughing at the jokes the guests made on the show.

  Penny pressed close to me and didn’t want to seem to move. We watched TV for a couple of hours and then she insisted on washing the dishes for me. I teased her about doing it naked, making Penny blush. I had all of the curtains closed so she had the privacy, but Penny tried to escape to the sink as I laughed. I could make it across the room in just a few steps.

  I wrapped my arms around her as she put the plates in the sink, allowing the glasses to drop down gently. I pulled her against me, kissing her neck after I bared her skin with my nose.

  “Dishes,” She whimpered as I slid a hand up to cup her breast.

  “Later,” I replied, reaching for the hem of the shirt.

  I lifted it over her head and lifted her to the counter, spreading her thighs apart. Penny gazed at me with lust in her eyes as I stroked the damp lace of her underwear.

  “I’ve never felt this before,” Penny told me as I slipped the material aside, finding her hot entrance with my finger. “I never thought I had feelings for you. You were just Mark’s friend.” She gazed at me with remorse as I curved my finger, finding the spot that made her explode. “I’m sorry.”

  “Don’t be. This happened this way for a reason, Penny. We needed to be older to do this the right way.” I moved deeper, dragging my fingertip over her as she cried out. “I can’t stop touching you.”

  “I don’t want you to,” She assured me as I smiled wickedly.

  “Are these pregnancy hormones?” I teased her as she let out a shaky laugh.

  “It’s more than that.”

  I pressed against her, crushing my mouth to hers. I made her cum easily before dropping my pants and pressing inside of her as she gripped my shoulders. Penny cried out as I took her again, feeling guilty because she must hurt a bit. I was big.

  I carried her to bed when we were done, promising her some rest. I planned to wake her up with my mouth before I cooked breakfast and eventually took her home. I turned the lights out before making the short walk, tucking us under the covers as she smiled at me.

  “I didn’t plan on this tonight, Penny. I just wanted to spend some time with you. No regrets at all but I feel more for you than what we did here tonight. You know that, don’t you?” I asked her as she lifted her mouth to mine for a kiss.

  “I feel the same way. This felt right to me.” Penny murmured as we settled against each other.

  I kissed her one more time; feeling like love once again filled these rooms. I missed that. It was going to multiply within a few months’ time.

  We made love one more time in the morning before breakfast, enjoying it in front of the open windows as she took in the view.

  “Are you going to stay here?” Penny asked as I sipped my coffee. She was drinking juice, explaining that she didn’t want coffee anymore.

  “I haven’t thought about it. I still have the big house. I just felt like I wanted the privacy at the time,” I answered, imagining raising the baby here.

  We could play outside and take walks in the forest, even swim in the big creek behind the cabin like I used to do. This was a wonderful place to grow up, but small. I could move back into the bigger house if my family grew and keep the cabin as a weekend getaway.

  “I can see why. This is gorgeous,” She said with an appreciative smile, looking beautiful this morning.

  Penny always had a natural beauty about her even when she went through her experimental stages earlier in life. She’d dress different ways and add color to her hair, adding to her already vibrant personality.

  “Stay with me anytime you want. Sleep here with me,” I told her as she looked at me with a guarded expression. “Look, I already know that I want this to work out with you. I want to raise the baby with you. There is no doubt of that in my mind and I don’t see a reason to put anything off. I hope I’m not being too forward.”

  She set her fork down and took a large gulp of her juice. “I…that sounds so scary. That is what he said when we met and now he’s gone.”

  Anger filled me at the mention of her ex. “I am not him. I’m staying here with you and se
eing this to the end. I’m better for you.”

  “I know that, Walden. I do. I just worry about jumping into something so quickly all over again. I’m not even divorced,” She told me as I gave her a soft smile.

  “I didn’t mention that, but it will happen. I want this baby to have my name,” I explained, watching as she shuddered. “Is this going too fast?”

  “Yes. No….maybe? You make me feel so safe and loved. I know you mean every word you said. I want the same for me and my child.” She looked down as she stroked her stomach. “I am still taking care of Mama. I can’t stay here permanently but I’ll sleep with you some nights.”

  “Deal,” I agreed as she nodded.

  We finished eating and she dressed in her clothes from the night before after a shower, fretting about coming home the morning after. I took her hand on the way to the car, squeezing it to reassure her. We drove in her car together with plans to come back later.

  Walking into the house, everyone was all smiles. It looked like they made their own breakfast and were relaxing after eating.

  “Hello, Walden. Penny,” Nancy greeted us with hugs and kisses. “Did you eat?”

  “We did,” I assured her as Mark gave us a long look, glancing between us a few times.

  I was certain that it showed what happened the night before in both of us. I reached out and pulled her against me as Penny squeaked. They all needed to know that this girl was mine.

  Chapter 9

  Penny

  Walden pulled me against his warm body as my family watched closely. I blushed, loving the contact but embarrassed that everyone saw this. I hoped that they couldn’t see all the things we’d done together but that was futile. I was sure I looked as good as I felt inside. I felt alive and hopeful after the bruising experience with Penn.

  We settled on the couch to chat with everyone else for a while and Lindsay sat on my right side while Walden sat on the left, holding my hand.
