Maisey Yates - Untamed Cowboy

“You’re really not my... Bennett’s girlfriend?”

“Really not,” she said, ignoring the slight tug at the center of her chest. “So, I have no special influence over him. I’m never going to be your stepmother. I’m really just someone who wants to get to know you. And wants to help you figure life out. And someone who doesn’t want to clean up dog poop this morning.”

Dallas stood up, the expression on his face strange. As if he couldn’t really understand why he was doing it. “Okay. Show me where the stupid dogs are.”

“I don’t have any stupid dogs,” she said, schooling her expression into one of total seriousness.

“Really?”

“They’re good dogs, Dallas.”

He let out an exasperated sigh. “Do you want me to clean up the dog poop or not?”

“I definitely do. Follow me.”

As they walked out of the break room, Kaylee smiled to herself. Maybe she was a secret teenager whisperer, or something. She didn’t have any experience with kids, so she hadn’t really expected to find a connection with him.

But she was glad to know that she had.

Dallas mattered to Bennett. And that meant he mattered to her too.

She would do anything for Bennett.

She tried to ignore that thought as it tumbled around inside of her brain, repeating itself throughout the day.

It would be better if she wouldn’t do anything for Bennett. She just needed to break the cycle.

Too bad there was a wrench thrown into her gears.

She looked over at Dallas, who was doing his best to wrangle Rufus. Yes. There was most definitely a wrench. But it remained to be seen what effect that was going to have.
