Tennessee Smooth Bonus Scene

Our motto throughout this experience? Be so smooth they can’t ignore you. This has also become an integral part of our branding with T-shirts, whiskey glasses, and other memorabilia bearing the slogan. As successful as the swallowing campaign also proved, once Dante was born, Colton didn’t want to mess with things we might have to explain to our son later. His thinking couldn’t have been more prescient, Dante a constant flood of questions these days.

Although Big Jim remains our number one suspect for the distillery fire, men like that don’t topple easily. The crime was pinned on Rex and a couple of his other lackeys, who continue to serve time in prison for arson, destruction of property, and a laundry list of other crimes.

But something must have transpired between the old man with his slicked-back silver hair and piercing blue eyes and Colton because no respect is left unpaid when I see Big Jim in public now. As begrudging as it may be. We’ve also gotten to know my younger brother, Wade, and his wife, Honey, who quickly became the family Colton and I both craved in this town.

Inside, the tasting room hops, and I lead Dante through the chaos up the big stairs to Daddy’s office. I rap on the door, and a gruff voice calls, “Come in.”

The little boy and I enter, and Colton’s eyes shine with affection. “My minx and my baby, what are you two up to today?”

The towering Army Ranger pulls me into his arms for a scintillating kiss before he grabs Dante, swinging him through the air. Dante belly laughs until his cheeks glow.

“How was school today, buddy?” Colton questions.

“I made you this,” Dante says, his expressive brown and green eyes watching Colton as he appraises the artwork.

“Wow, very nice, son! Tell me about it.”

The little boy points at the stick figures next to a large house. “This is Grandma, Mama, me, and you.”

“Fantastic job. And what’s going on with my leg?” Colton asks.

“It’s special, Daddy. A superhero leg that’s almost as strong as you are,” the little boy giggles.

A deep, rich laugh rumbles up from Colton’s chest. “I love it. It’s perfect.”

“There you are!” a tender voice calls from behind us, peeking through the open door to Colton’s office.

“Grandma!” Dante screams, racing towards my mother and hugging her legs. Mama moved back to Whiskey Flames Hollow after Dante was born so that she could stay closer to us. Although she hesitated, wanting desperately to avoid Big Jim, we made her see that this is our town now. The Wainwrights can take a back seat.

“Mama,” Colton says, hurrying forward to hug my mother. “We can’t thank you enough for this.”

“Of course,” Mama coos. “With how hard you both work, you could use a break and a little alone time.”

“Wonder where I got that work ethic from?” I tease, hugging her. “But we are taking your advice and enjoying every moment of this night together.”

“And I’m doing the same with my grandbaby,” she smiles broadly, taking Dante’s hand, and they head out together, chattering about what to do this evening.

“Sounds like your Mama’s got big plans for Dante tonight,” Colton chuckles.

“And I have big plans for you,” I say seductively, stepping forward to rest my hand on his chest.

“Oh do you now?”

“Question is, what do you have planned for us, Sexy?”

“More like what don’t I have planned for you, Minx?” Colton murmurs darkly, demandingly pulling me into his arms. “We have an in-home chef who’s going to cook for us. And our newest top-label whiskeys are finally ready for a tasting. The jacuzzi’s good to go, too. So we can find out just how smooth the new batches are while I spoil you rotten. And then, after you’re well-fed and well-sated by the whiskey, how about I get back to my number one job?”

“Number one job?” I whisper, eyeing the handsome cowboy.

“Pleasing the hell out of you,” he growls, dipping his head to kiss and taste my neck. “Which means leaving you so damn breathless you don’t even remember your own name. Sound like a plan?”

“Sounds amazing. Better than amazing,” I purr. “But if you think you’re leaving this office before you fuck your wife properly, you have another thing coming, my human vibrator.”

Colton moans, pleasure washing over his face. “You’re never going to let me forget that promise, are you?”

“I gave you your one out over text, and you didn’t take it. So, no, I’m never forgetting it. Or letting you.”

“Good.”

“You know the drill. Lock the door, draw the blinds, and turn off your phone. It’s time for your daily taste of minx,” I order teasingly as I lean over the desk, arching my ass in the air.

His gaze smolders. “First taste today,” he corrects hungrily, pressing his firm arousal against my ass and making my head spin with need.
