Lurch walked away from the bunkhouse smiling despite the way his face ached. He was going to have Kerry in his space. In his bed. He went back to work, but his mind was on her and what he planned to do to her now that there was no chance of being overheard either by her roommate or neighbors. A slow smile curved his lips as he came up with ideas. He wouldn’t be able to put them all into action tonight. Partly because he just had too many things he wanted to do with her, to her, but also because he would need to do a little shopping before he had the stuff to do it all. He took extra time washing up and getting ready for dinner that evening. It wasn"t the Kerry had never seen him dirty, straight off the range but tonight he had asked her to stay and that"s what made it different… special.
