CHAPTER FIVE
The Beat Down
KANDA
Lawn on the path to the Cook’s Cottage…
Kanda saw the fight…if you could call it that while she was standing at her window. She fully intended to stay right where she was. Jet was always pissing somebody, somewhere off and she’d seen him beat most of the aggressors down before they even got in the first swing. She studied the man who was talking to him. A twinge ran up along her spine. This man looked huge and somehow familiar. She shrugged. Probably a father of some girl Jet messed around with. Same old, bad boy story.
Then, she couldn’t believe what she was seeing. Jet simply stood there, letting the man pound on him!
Something wasn’t right here! She raised the window and climbed out just as the man punched her brother in the stomach. Yelling like a wild Indian gone mad, she found herself climbing onto the bouncer like man who’d been beating her brother up. “You sonofabitch!” she screeched as they whirled around.
The man was trying to grab her off, but she’d ridden broncs and bulls since she was a girl and this behemoth wasn’t gonna throw her!
All the sudden, there were multiple voices yelling from different directions as she pummeled the tree of a man and they both spun in circles.
She saw Mable at one turning and Maggie the new housekeeper.
Then, she saw Wade on the final turn as he reached out and snatched her from the man’s back.
“Let go of me!” she shouted as he wrestled her to the grass.
“Kandy stop,” he yelled into her ear.
“Get off me! That monster was hitting my brother!”
Wade was huffing and puffing like he’d been running as he whispered, “That monster is my Dad.”
Kanda stilled. “What?”
He released her and pulled her up.
Everyone as well as a few cowhands stood in a circle around them.
Kanda spotted the man she just bashed.
He stood tall with his arms at his sides as he barely broke a sweat.
Staring boldly at him, she took in the similar look to him. His eye color and build, an older version of her Wade. “Oh shit,” she muttered.
“What in hell’s mountain did you think you were doing?” Mable yelled at her.
“Jet!” Maggie shouted and ran over to her brother to hold his hands and peer up at his busted lip.
Wade turned to his father.
The man took in the faces around him and then halted at his son’s gaze. His brows rose up.
Wade grasped Kanda’s hand and tugged her forward.
She nearly stumbled, as she hadn’t expected him to drag her over like he was.
“Dad,” he stated with a nod of his head.
His father looked over at Kanda.
She knew her face went beet red as he stared. His eyes were so much like Wade’s!
“Wade,” he greeted.
Oh and the voice, almost the same too! How could I miss the resemblance before? Yeah, and this was the guy at the river! Though, I never got a good look at him at the time, seeing as I had to dunk myself into the water to hide all my bare assets. Her face flushed hotly as she realized all of this at once.
“This is…my girl, Kandy,” Wade announced in a calm tone. “Kanda Kincade, this is Rand Monroe, my father.”
The handsome older version of Wade looked calm too…his eyes glittered though, as if the whole beat down idea may have a part two.
Kanda could see where Wade got his nature all right and wow, the man was built like a veritable tank.
Maggie took Jet’s hand and stepped up to the three of them.
Kanda glanced over and noted the pair, holding hands. Her gaze rose up to see a slight smile on Jet’s face. He was beat up something fierce and he wore this goofy smile? Okay, that is just crazy! He’s smiling after getting a beat down? Then the whole explanation hit her like a train. “Oh! No Jet, you didn’t!” She studied Maggie’s blushing face.
Mable stepped up to the now small circle. “Apparently, he did and he seems proud of his mess, this time around!”
Kanda looked back and forth at them all. “So, Jet—you were letting Mister Monroe pound on you, because you went too far and tapped Maggie!” she answered her own question.
Maggie huffed. “I do not remember any tapping. This was so stupid, all this macho crap! I am so disappointed in you Dad! Hitting a man like he was a punching bag!”
Rand glanced over at her. “He said he did in fact take advantage of you and he said he would do it again.”
Maggie went pale. “What?”
Wade growled as he released Kanda’s hand and lunged for Jet. He grabbed him by his now tattered shirt and moved him back. Raising his fist, he pulled for the punch.
Maggie jumped up onto his arm, hanging on like a rabid pit bull. “You lay one hand on him and I will make you regret it!” she shouted as Wade peered down at her.
Rand Monroe let out a huge laugh at the sight of his short but busty daughter hanging off her brother’s arm like she was a squirrel hanging onto an oak limb.
Wade halted, as he looked stricken by her threat.
Kanda didn’t know what the hell was going on—has everyone gone crazy?
Wade lowered his arm and stepped back as Maggie let go and jumped back to the ground.
“God Dangit Maggie,” Jet seethed. “You went all Wonder Woman again! I can handle this!”
Maggie looked infuriated too. “Oh, yes, says the man who again, got his ass handed to him! Only this time, he just stood there, taking the beating!”
Rand Monroe laughed even harder.
Mable stood next to him and let out one of her loud guffaw laughs too.
Kanda thought she had landed in a bad three stooge’s movie as she gaped at them laughing.
Wade started to laugh too.
Suddenly, the few men around them joined in the laughter.
Jet stared at them all while looking stricken.
Kanda bit at the inside of her cheek. Jet never liked when he was the butt of a joke and she prepared herself for the worst reaction. This punchin’ party was about to get crazier. She took a step forward to try and diffuse it.
Her brother tilted his head back and let out a huge laugh as he put an arm around Maggie’s shoulder.
Stunned at this turnabout by her image-centered brother, she even wondered if this might be Cole and not Jet, though she could always tell them apart since they were babies. “Okay, hold up here!” Kanda shouted over their laughter while she gazed at all of their amused faces. “Are you all punch drunk? Have you all been drinking?”
Jet halted and gaped at his sister and then he bent over with more laughter.
Maggie looked startled by her comment as she bit at her lip and a huge smile cracked her lips, then she started laughing too.
Wade chuckled at them all but he did look a little lost suddenly.
Jet swiped at his tears of laughter and stepped forward. “Mister Monroe when I answered yes to your question about taking advantage of sweet Maggie…I didn’t mean it like that! What I meant was…I intend to take care of her from here on out. I also need to ask for your blessing.” He pulled Maggie close to his side and kissed her cheek.
Kanda sucked in a breath. What the heck is going on around here? Blessing?
“Get your hands off my daughter, you no good shit kicker!”
The smiles and laughter immediately halted as they all gazed over at the newest guest to this standoff in the grass at the Triple K.
Even Rand looked stricken as he stared.
Kanda turned her head to see Daisy Plush striding over. Wow, the woman still looked so good after all these years. But right now, she looked like she was gonna rain hell down on Jet.
Well, so much for a blessing…this would be nothing but a curse!
“This all just keeps getting better and better,” Mable muttered under her breath.
Kanda swung her gaze over to her mother. Why hell, I have never seen her look scared ever before.
Daisy halted and stood staring at the tall Kincade twin, then her gaze swung over to Rand. “So, this is the hound you were chasing. I hope he’s bloody on account of you.”
“Yeah! He is!” Maggie shouted at her mother as she stepped in front of Jet. “And if you wanna get a lick in, you will HAVE to go through me!”
“What did you just say, missy?” Daisy snapped.
“You heard me!” Maggie seethed. “That goes for all of you! You dogpiling cowhands.” She pointed at the men standing to the side. Then swung her finger over to her father. “Daddy hamfists over there and Wade the wallop!” She glared at her father and brother as she grabbed Jet’s hand and faced her mother. “This is my fiancé and if anyone lays another hand on him, there’s gonna be hell to pay!” She tugged on Jet’s hand. “Come on, now I have more wounds to tend, if you ALL don’t mind!” She pulled at the cowboy.
Jet looked reluctant like he wanted to make another stand to Daisy.
“I would let that go for now boy,” Mable called over to him.
Daisy was huffing and looking for a fight all right.
Jet sighed and turned away with Maggie.
“Fiancé?” Daisy shouted at no one in particular. “She’s been here less than two days! Now, she’s shacked up with that hound dog?”
The crowd all thinned out, as the cowhands didn’t seem to want anything to do with these kinds of theatrics.
Wade grabbed Kanda’s hand and she startled. Her senses couldn’t take in anymore of these out of whack events and she peered up at him.
“Come on, Kandy.”
“We can all get this thing ironed out over the dinner table, everyone,” Mable announced as she walked over to Daisy and whispered into her ear. After a minute, she moved away a few steps. “In fact, you all are ordered to dinner!” Then, she turned and went up the walk.
Rand stepped closer to Daisy and grabbed her up to plant a quick kiss on her lips. He took ahold of her shoulder and walked her up to the big house.
Daisy and Wade’s dad?
Wade did the same with her, steering her along to the open window. “We have some things to settle ourselves, Kandy girl, so climb on in.”
She gazed back at him.
“You hopped out of it and now, you can hop back in.”
Kanda paused for a second. He had that look in his eyes, she’d seen it a time or two before. But she didn’t know what he might be up to. She grabbed the windowsill and swung her leg up.
Wade grabbed her ass and pushed her up higher.
“Ohh,” she let out, stunned at his ass grabbing.
He chuckled from behind her.
She hopped in and stepped back.
Wade jumped over the sill with ease and landed on the floor feet first. “Now, as to our issue,” he stated as he turned and closed the window, then pulled the curtains together.
“Issue?” she repeated.
“Yes. This propensity you have for tying me up.”
Her stomach fluttered. “But I thought…?”
With an intense expression on his face, he stepped closer as he crossed his arms over his chest. “You thought…what?”
She thought it was so awesome that he might just let this go? His eyes had that look again, where had she seen it before?
Stepping forward, he grabbed her up and slung her over his shoulder. Then he walked over to the door and locked it. He neatly pivoted as though he was carrying a small sack of potatoes instead of a full grown curvy woman and sat down on the vanity bench at the end of her bed.
Kanda held still and she didn’t even struggle. She knew this might happen when she went all crazy cowgirl on him…again. She steeled herself to accept the so-called punishment.
Remaining silent as was his way sometimes, he swung her around onto his lap and tugged her T-shirt off, then he reached down and ripped her panties clean off her ass.
Kanda gasped at the ripping sound but otherwise, she remained like a ragdoll. The last time he did this, she hadn’t expected it and she had never been spanked before by a man. She even cried, but not this time! Nope, she intended to take it like a champ!
He settled her across his knees and still mute, he opened her thighs a little.
Kanda held her breath when she felt his large warm hands on her legs.
Wade gently pulled her breasts out and hung them over his thigh.
Then she widened her eyes as he arranged other parts of her body too. Crap on a cracker! She gulped heavily. He wouldn’t.
“I would,” he whispered as though he knew exactly what she was thinking while he caressed her backside with a slow rhythm.
Oh, no…Her stomach clenched. He is gonna torture me! Not just a spanking like he did the last time!
“I am also going to take my sweet time,” he added, “You got anything to say about it?”
Kanda clenched her lips shut and said not one word. He’s challenging me. Knowing I don’t back down from any fight. I also vowed I would take what he would mete out when I first tied him up. She shook her head in answer. I can do this! I’m tough…I’m—
Wade reached under and inserted two fingers into her wet sheath.
Her body shuddered before she could stop its reaction. With his other hand, he kept caressing her butt cheek.
Okay, okay. I can still make it through this. She bolstered herself up.
Still not speaking, he plunged his fingers up into her.
Her muscles clenched around his fingers as she let out a huge ecstatic moan.
Wade slid them out and back in.
Kanda kept her mouth clenched to keep anymore foolish moans from escaping. Her entire body flushed.
POP!
The slap came down on her bare cheek. She bit her lip. He was plunging his fingers and that was what she felt more than the ass slap. Wow, pleasure over pain! She almost smiled. Dang right, I can get through this, she thought.
Until…he reached around and played with her nipples that were hanging over his thigh.
No! Her body reacted immediately as hot tingles gathered at her nipples and between her thighs. Wade plunged her some more with those skilled fingers too.
She bit back the whimper that fought to escape as a bead of sweat rolled down her face. Oh, god! Lord all mighty! A triple threat!
He caressed her breasts and it felt like melting butter on hot cross buns.
Then he shoved his fingers a little deeper and…
SMACK!
Her entire body shifted as the sensations all gathered into one feeling…ECSTASY…Not pain, but a desperate pleasure. Sweet Jesus, am I up the creek with no paddle. NO! Do not think paddle. Her mind went into a tither as he removed his fingers from her very erect nipples and caressed the hot cheek with his hand ever so softly. He then removed his fingers entirely.
Her body nearly clenched visibly as she wanted to cry out for him to put them back. No—no begging! She fought it all.
He then used those fingers to stroke her button between her folds.
More sweat broke out on her forehead as she huffed and fought not to squirm like a worm on a hook. God dammit, this is hot! I have never been manhandled like this…WADEHANDLED! Yeah, that’s what it is.
Wade leisurely played with her button for a full minute more and gently massaged her hot cheek at the same time, then moved his fingers back to her hanging nipples.
Oh, no…I can’t hold out while he is working me over like this…Her whole body quivered now and her panting grew loud in the room. I want him to stop and I want him to not stop. Have mercy! I heard of this kinda’ thing and I should have a safe word. Safe? Nah…She trembled badly…my body will never be safe from this big strapping man.
Her nipples almost rose in anticipation for his touch just like her entire body while it was being tuned to Wade’s notes. He played with her button pinching and smoothing it, while doing the same to her nipples.
It was a sexy hot, triple play on her intimate parts and she was not going to last much longer. I’m losing here…Oh, God dammit! Her breathing became fast as she felt like she would come any second.
The button play halted.
POP!
Another smack came down on her ass cheek. Her whole body jerked with the multiple sensations as she moaned long and loudly.
“Yes, sweet Kandy, what was that?” he whispered in a low husky voice.
“I—I’m sorry…” She barely got the words out.
“Are you going to come for me?” he purred.
Her body reacted to the sexy tone, she knew she was, there was no helpin’ it! “Yes-yesss,” she whimpered openly now.
Nearly growling, Wade grabbed her up, walked around to the side of the high tilted part of her brass bed and placed her face down on the mattress.
I give! I give! Her gasping got worse while on her knees with her ass up in the air. I never realized that when I finally got beat by someone that I would love it this God damn much!
Wade grabbed her hips. “I never considered this position for you sweet Kandy, it’s bit advanced, but…” He spread her plump cheeks and entered her from behind just as he spanked her other ass cheek with another smacking. “You upped our sex another notch…all on your own.”
Kanda felt him go all the way up inside her pulsing wet heat and he hit some spot she never knew existed as the feeling combined with the slap—her ass burned, her clit throbbed, her insides were heaving with feeling and it was almost enough to make her pass right out. Stars exploded in front of her eyes as she let out a loud helpless moan. “Mmm, Wade…I won’t do it again. I won’t!’ she vowed as she orgasmed and her whole body went up in virtual flames. “Unh,” she helplessly whimpered.
With his body tensing, Wade pumped her hard and fast. “God dammit woman, you will be the end of me,” he growled the words out as he propelled himself deep into her and grabbed her breasts again, fingering her nipples.
Kanda gulped and panted. “It’s tooo much…” The nipple move upped her climax and her body writhed with ultimate pleasure. All of it was so overwhelming that as she reached the top of this glorious height, she then slid down, going a virtual hundred miles an hour—tears rolled down her cheeks.
Wade held her body still as he too, climaxed and groaned.
Panting and gasping, while sweat rolled, tears raining down her cheeks and her juices bubbling out of her…she knew she was a hot mess.
Wade pulled out of her and again, grabbed her up to set her onto his lap. He held her tightly as they both gasped for air.
Up until now, she thought he had given her the top of the sky with his ways. BUT…this? “God dammit, Aussie man, give me that rope, ‘cause I’m gonna lasso your sexy body all over again!” she gasped out the words.
Wade held still, then he broke into a breathless laughter and embraced her tighter.
Kanda joined him as laughter combined with all the rest of the Wade induced sensations and she literally felt high as a burning kite. She wondered if she should ever dare to cross him again. Her warm sated body still shivered with leftover delight and she smiled. God dammed straight I will!
