Harper was with the goats at the farm. She was helping feed the animals for John's farm. She smiled as she held a baby goat that was born the day before. It was baby season for the goats. She heard the sound of a motorcycle coming up the drive.
She walked out of the barn holding the kid. She watched as a familiar bike came up the drive behind a truck. She guessed that Cayden was working again today. He was there to help with some birthing yesterday.
She sat the goat down and the kid went to his mother to nurse. She went to the gate and smiled waving at Cayden as he came in. He gave her a wave from inside the truck. Harper felt her heart skip a beat as she saw Connor on the bike and parked it before looking over at her.
She felt his gaze stabbing into her. She couldn't hold his gaze and looked away. She felt a tug on her shirt and turned seeing a goat named Peaches tugging on her shirt. She giggled and gave Peaches some head scritches, that soon caused others to come to get attention as well.
The animals knew she would love on them all day if she was able to. Which she loved doing. She didn't care about the smell, she loved animals. She loved loving on them and receiving love back from them as well.
"Hey how are the babies?" Cayden asked coming up to the gate. She turned to look at him. "Their good. We should be having more today." Harper told him, trying to not look at his intimidating and yet very sexy father.
Something inside her told her to run away. Get away. Stay away from that man. Something wasn't good when it came to him. But another part wanted him. Wanted him to own her. But that scared her.
She looked over, hearing a snap.
John smiled. "To send to you mother. She would probably like to see you helping out with the animals." He told her. Harper nodded. "Oh. Ok."
She looked away missing the look John and Connor sent each other.
She heard people walking away, and she saw Connor and John walking away to the main house. Connor looked back at her, and it made Harper look away once more.
"Why is your dad here? Aren't you a bit too old to have your dad bring you to work?" Harper teased playfully, but she did want to know why Connor was there. He seemed to be everywhere she was.
She always felt like his piercing eyes were on her. But when she looked around her, half the time he wasn't there. Even when she was here at the farm. He wouldn't be there, but it was like he was there and was still watching her.
Harper shook her head of the thoughts in her mind, before going about her chores with Cayden.
When the two were done with feeding animals, she helped move hay around with her new friend. The two talked about things. Life, his girlfriend, her life here in town. She found it easy to talk to Cayden. He was so kind, and he was funny. Angelina was such a lucky girl.
Harper wanted something like that. She wanted to be loved romantically and love them just as much back. She was unwanted for so long, that being here has been a big difference to her. She wasn't fully sure she was used to it yet.
Or if she would ever get use to it.
She went to go get something from the main barn and got onto her tiptoes to reach for it. Thats when she was pinned to the spot by a large strong body, and woodsy smell. She tensed up as Connor reached for the item she was trying to grab.
"You are so tiny. It's adorable." Connor told her. She turned and looked at him. "Well... I don't think it's cute but thank you for helping me." She said, taking the gloves for Cayden to check the goats for their babies.
"Um... There should be a thing of lube. Can you grab that as well?" Harper asked nervously. He raised an eyebrow and grinned. "Lube? I would make you more than wet enough that you wouldn't need it." He teased her before reaching up and getting the lube she needed.
Her whole face was bright red. Even though she knew he was teasing her. She took everything and wanted to run. But his arms kept her there. She looked up at him threw her hair. Her whole face was still red.
"Need anything else princess?" He asked her. She quickly shook her head no. He moved closer and his face moved to her neck. She felt him take a deep breath and she shivered as his scruff tickled her soft skin. She felt her body heat up more as he let out a soft growl.
Growl? What the fuck?
He quickly moved away. "Run off little one." He told her, moving his arm away and she dashed off. He watched her. "Run Little Red Riding Hood." He mumbled to himself. "Run till I catch you." He said as he took deep breaths to keep his arousal down.
He had to leave after his meeting with John. Even getting the picture he took of Harper on his phone. That was his mate. No matter if she didn't even want to be.
