Welcome to Saturday Spankings! I appreciate you taking
the time to stop by. I’m getting excited about the new Cal’s Law book, Educating Jenny, coming out in less than a month. Today’s snippet is from Cal’s Law.
Cal is in love with Jenny, but he feels he’s all wrong
for her. He’s too old for here and his salary doesn’t match what she’s used to.
Jenny cares for him too, but can’t seem to break through his barriers. She even
makes out with Kyle as Cal watches during a festival hoping to get a reaction
from Cal. But in her mind, even that didn’t bother him. As Cal acts more and
more distant Jenny asks what she’s done wrong.
Cal
looked at her without answering. In his head he was thinking, I feel like you gutted me by letting that
sweaty, little shit ass paw you at the festival. You’re everything I’ve ever
wanted and you pick that little prick. I want to fall to my knees and beg you
to love me every time I see you – that’s all you’ve done.
Aloud
to Jenny he said, “You haven’t done anything wrong. I guess I’m just
overworked.”
“I
saw you watching Kyle and me at the festival. He’s just a friend Cal, honest.
We’re not together or anything. We just kissed, you know as friends.”
“Yeah,
you looked like pretty damn good friends. I have some calls to make. Do you
mind seeing yourself out?” Cal turned, went into the bedroom and shut the door.
Cold
hearted bastard! She was trying to apologize, she was trying to explain but he
didn’t give a shit. Okay then if Cal really didn’t want her, she knew someone
who did.
Cal
stood at the bedroom door. When he heard the front door close he went to the
window. He stood still as stone as he watched Jenny drive away. Taking a ragged
breath Cal realized that for the first time in nearly twenty years he was
crying.

Hi PK, wrong messages given and received. If only they had communicated honestly. Sigh. Great snippet :)

That honest communication can be tough at times.
DeleteDecisions - there's always and up and down side - they're never easy as Jenny is learning.
ReplyDeleteYes, I sometimes have to remember just how young Jenny is.
DeleteOh wow! You got me with Cal crying.
ReplyDeleteAmy
It was very hard on him.
DeletePride goeth before the fall. Looks like Cal's jealousy and Jenny's pride is interfering with what they both want. Great snippet, PK. Like the way you gave us both points of view so we can see exactly where they are going wrong.
ReplyDeleteHow much easier it would have been if they had both been honest.
DeletePowerful snippet, PK. I like that you gave both POV's on this one!

DeleteThanks, Shelly. I always want to know both sides.
Poor Cal! I Hope these two can get it together before it's too late.
ReplyDeleteThey sure had a rocky start.
DeleteI like these two and I'm anxious to see how things go for them in that new book you're promising!
