“I looked over the financials last night, and there’s one thing I kept coming back to.” I glance at her as I pull into the parking lot of the Circle C. “You ran all of that, Tracy, and it’s the reason the Rodeo has stayed open all these years, in spite of what your father took and let fall to the side. You’re the one that kept the doors open on this place, and that means you know what it takes to keep it going, even when someone is skimming off the top.”

“I didn’t do much. I just kept the bills paid, but there was never any left over.” She shrugs like it’s not a big deal.

“You’re not giving yourself enough credit. This is a multimillion-dollar-a-year facility, and you, by yourself, kept it going. I know grown men with pockets twice as deep that haven’t been able to do that. You’ve got a gift, sweet thing, and it’s time we put it to use.”

She blushes, and I can’t help reaching out and tracing my thumb over the rosy cheek.

“I’ve got some people I want you to meet.”

“Meet?” For the first time all morning, she looks nervous. Well, except for when she thought she was going to suck my cock, but I can’t think about that right now or I won't be able to walk because my dick will be too hard.

“Yep, I’ve got a team of contractors here, and they’re ready to go to work. You tell them what needs attention, and their crews will be on it.”

“But the rodeo doesn’t have the money to do the upgrades it needs. I’ve seen the books.”

“Yeah, but you haven’t seen mine.” I wink at her as I hop out of the truck and then go around to the other side to help her down. “I’m going to make you a deal.”

“I’m not sure what I have to offer in return. You already have everything, including me.”

“You’re right, but I still want to make a deal.”

“Let me hear it then.” She raises her chin, and it’s so damn cute when she’s trying to be tough.

I put my hands on the truck behind her and cage her in. That makes a little of her confidence fall, and she licks her lips nervously.

“I’ll front the money for all the work that needs to be done, and you’ll be in charge of managing this place.”

“What do you get in return?” she asks softy.

“I think you know what I want.” I press my body against hers so she can feel how hard I am. “I bought this place, and you came with it, but I want all of you, sweet thing. I’ll let you run this rodeo like it should be, but I want that tight little pussy you got on my dick.”

She swallows hard, and her lips part, but nothing comes out.

“I’ll take it if that’s how you want this to go, but I’d rather have you eager to make me happy.” Leaning down, I brush my lips over hers and then take a step back. “Come on, we’ve got people waiting.”
