Kitty sat at the table with three men, gathered about, playing cards. The Game? Well, Poker of course. And she was dealing. But this would be a fair game and she would not use any of the tricks that Clark had taught her. She would win on her own accord. She would beat these men at a game that was theirs, or so they thought. Lady luck was with her tonight. She held a hand that she felt secure in and she and Teet Benner were the last in. "Well, pretty lady, the pot is to you." Teet said smiling at her, his yellow teeth made her want to vomit and his stench was just as bad. The pot was at One hundred and forty Dollars and she could use that to get her pretty far from Oklahoma, and far from Dodge, Clark and Matt Dillon. "It's $20.00 ifin' you wanna stay in the game." Teet said.
"I know what the bet is, Mr. Benner." She looked at him. "I'll see your bet!" She said as she counted out twenty dollars and laid it on the table.
"Call!" Teet said as he laid out his cards, three of a kind, three jacks lay out on the table.
Kitty smiled as she lay out four of a kind. Four tens beat his three jacks. "Looks like you lose, Mr. Benner." She said as she leaned forward and pulled the money towards her.
"What? I don't think so reds." He said as she began to straighten up her money. "I ain't ne'er been beat by no woman and I ain't gonna start now." He said standing up and pushing his chair back as he placed his hand on his pistol. Jodi Walker, the deputy was at the bar and pulled his pistol out on Teet.
"You take that itchy hand of yours off of that there pistol, Teet. I watched the game, she didn't cheat, she beat you fair and square." Teet looked back to see the Deputy with his pistol drawn.
"She didn't win, she's a woman, she ain't got no right being in a gambling house with men-folk." Teet said as he watched Kitty take her winnings and roll it up and place it in her pocket.
"Seems to me, she's got as much right as you do to be here." Jodi said placing his pistol back in the holster.
"No decent women would be in this here saloon, gambling." Teet said looking at Kitty accusing her of being less than decent.
"She was good enough when you thought you could con her out of a few dollars, but now that the tables turned you wanna go and cry over spilt milk. Get on home to Tessy, or I'll be tellin' everyone that a woman done beat you at cards." Jodi said as Teet placed his hat on his head and walked by Kitty as she stood there.
"I'll be seeing you later, girly, you won't be forgetting me too soon." He said. Mike Kennedy stood from his seat next to Kitty.
"You try anything, Teet and you'll pay. You so much as think about coming near this Lady again, and I'll rip you to shreds." He said looking at the sodbuster. Teet was surprised that Mike who had lost money to the woman as well, would stand up for her.
"It was a fair and friendly game, Miss, and a pleasure to sit with such a beautiful player." He tipped his hat as Teet angrily left the saloon. "Miss!" He said walking over to the saloon and ordering a drink.
Jodi stepped over to Kitty and smiled at her. Her blue eyes lit up and there was an explosion that seemed to go off in Jodi's head. Her smile was like the sun coming up over the north ridge. A glorious light that threatened to consume him. "Sorry Miss,?" He said questioning her for her name.
"It's Dillon. Kathleen Dillon." She said using the name of the man who had promised to bring her in.
"Miss Dillon? May I escort you back to your hotel?" He asked.
"Yes, thank you, that would be nice." She said as he lead her out of the saloon and down the street to the only hotel in town. He walked her up to the front door of the two-story hotel and then tipped his hat.
"Well, good night, Miss Dillon." The Deputy said as he tipped his hat and watched the pretty redhead enter the hotel.
"Thank you, Deputy." She said as she turned back before entering the hotel. Smiling, she headed up the stairs to her room. Entering the darkened room, she headed over to the table beside the bed and took a match from the cup. Striking it along the side of the cup, it was engulfed in a flame, which she used to light the lamp.
"Kathleen Dillon?" Matt asked as he stood there by the door looking at her.
Kitty turned quickly, startled by his voice, and somewhat relieved when she saw him and not Teet Benner standing there. "How did you get here so quickly?" She asked as she stood with her arms crossed under her breast.
"I have my ways." Matt said as he pulled the chair up, turned it around and straddled it while leaning his hands on the back of the chair, watching her. "I saw you play poker, you're quite the little player."
"I didn't cheat, if that's what you're insinuating." She said staring at him and trying to figure out her best way out.
"I didn't' insinuate anything, I saw the game, and I wouldn't think about it if I were you. The sheriff of this town knows who you are and who I am, and had his deputy escort you back, just in case you had any ideas of leaving town tonight." He said noting her desperate need to escape.
"Oh, I see." She said as she sat on the bed and began to unbutton her boots. "Just when did you get into town, Marshal?" She said looking up for a moment.
"Just after two." He said watching her every move. The dress she wore had a square neck and he could see the soft swell of breast. He smiled to himself, thinking how very much he wanted nothing more than to throw her down on that bed and take her, then and there.
Kitty saw the look in his eyes. She took her second boot off and stood up, turning away from him. Matt saw the fear in her eyes and stood up, moving around the chair. "What's wrong?" He asked as he moved towards her.
"Nothing." She said not trusting herself to turn to face him. Matt moved closer to her till his thigh was touching her hip. She breathed deeply, the feelings rushing through her were unfamiliar to her. Her body was tingling and she wanted to feel his hands on her bare skin. She sucked air in her mouth slightly, when she felt his hands on her waist, then closed her eyes as they slid around to cup her breast through her blouse. His other hand then slid down her hip, and pressing the skirt in, his hand cupped her sex and she moved against his hand. His mouth latched onto the supple skin at her neck and she moaned as she moved against his large hand. He pulled his hand away, then pulled at her skirts until he was able to get under the slips, she wore no bloomers, and his hand encountered the bare hot flesh of her womanhood. Kitty moaned as long talented fingers moved against her hot flesh and into her waiting sheath. She was lost in a passion she had never felt, nor allowed herself to feel. Matt's long fingers worked her hard and fast, his thumb brushing against the hot bed of nerves that threatened to explode. "Please…oh." She cried as he continued to torture her body. Her mind felt as though it were in a fog, she was feeling things that she was too terrified to allow herself to feel, not just from what this man was doing to her body, but from what he had managed to do to her heart and soul. Kitty gasped, long and ragged as she felt an explosion occur throughout her body. Her release came hard and fast and her body sagged forward, Matt tightened his grip about her to keep her from falling. Her body trembled as she cried in his arms. Matt turned her around to face him and pulled her small form against his massive chest. Kitty's arms felt like jelly, yet she managed to slide them about his waist and hold on for dear life until the sensations she was feeling subsided. Her breath was ragged and Matt gently massaged her back to calm her down. "Matt…" She said somewhat out of breath. "Please." She said and he gently lifted her into his arms, carrying her seemingly weightless form to the bed. He gently let her down on the floor and took her small hands in his. She was still trembling and he knew that this was her first time. Sure she had been with many men, and all against her will, but he would be the first man to love her, the first man to whom she would willingly allow to possess her body. Within a matter of minutes, they stood before each other, naked as the day they were born. Kitty looked at Matt's tanned, massive body. He wasn't some skinny boy, nor some overweight old man, both of whom, she had had the dishonor of being bedded by. No, Matt was quite a man. His chest was large and muscular, she loved the tan skin beneath her fingers as she gently scrutinized every muscle rippling beneath it. Her tongue darted out to taste his tan skin, and Matt slipped his hand beneath her chin to lift her face to his and gently touched her lips with his. Looking into his dark blue eyes, she saw love and understanding as he gently laid her across the bed. His nimble fingers skimmed across every inch of her body, and when she thought she could take no more torture, he replaced his fingers, with his warm lips. Kitty moaned as his skimmed across her breast, her erect nipple disappearing into the hot crevice of his mouth. His tongue snaking out to tease her nipple then his mouth opened wider, taking as much of her into his mouth as possible. He had never felt anything like this before. He hadn't wanted to just poke her from the moment he had seen her picture. To him, she was just more than a shell to empty himself into, she was a woman, one he wanted to loose himself in. Tenderly, he pressed her warm body further into the blankets. Looking into her beautiful blue eyes, he felt himself drowning, swirling around in the pools of blue; which threatened to swallow him up. He would go willing, without a fight, no struggle needed. She saw the depth of emotions rushing through his dark blue eyes and she knew, that it had been a long long time for this man. He was more than she could have imagined, moving gently, yet firmly into her. She gasped as her body stretched to accommodate his girth, then moaned sweetly when he was fully embedded within her warmth, accepting all that he would offer her. He did not move. Instead, he gazed into her eyes, finding warmth and trust, he would not let her down. His body began to move, pulling back slightly, then moving full throttle back into her waiting warmth. "Oh," She moaned as he began to pick up speed. His hips thrusting into her, and hers thrusting upward to meet his, brought another moan from her lips as he moved deeper still. Kitty pulled her knees upward and wrapped her legs around his hips. Her hands gently caressing his naked flesh as she explored his body. His hands moved to her hips to tilt them slightly as he moved deep into her. Kitty felt him deep within her and she felt the explosion begin within her. Nothing in her life before, had ever prepared her for the explosion within her body. She thrust her head back, gasping for breath as her body began to convulse with pleasure and her hips frantically answering the call. Matt moved harder and faster into Kitty, as he began to reach a pinnacle, his body burning to release himself within her womb. "MATT! OH GOD! YEEEESSSSSSSSSSS!" She cried as she exploded again. The tingling raging through her body.
"OH….OH GOD!" He cried as his release came up upon him. His seed being released within her womb. Matt gasped for breath, as his hips pumped the last of him within her.
Breathing heavily, he held himself just above her, enough to keep himself within her, yet not to squash her tiny form. When he finally came down from his high, he realized that she was sobbing. "Shoo, Kitty, I'm sorry. Did I hurt you?"
"No, no, Matt, you didn't hurt me." She said choking back the tears. "Matt, I…I've never been with a man, like that. I've never…." She stopped as he gently caressed her cheek.
"Shoooo. It's alright." He said as he pulled her tighter against him and turned them over till she lay on top of him. He held her tightly in his arms, wrapping those strong arms around her back. "Sleep, now, Kitty." He said as she began to quiet down. Within a matter of minutes, she was fast asleep on his chest.
