The promise of December.

Tamzin.
I just get out from having a long soak in the bath when I hear a confident knock on my front door. Knowing it isn’t Evie, as she’s out with friends, one can only assume it’s the local group from the community hall doing their yearly Carol singing to raise money for the Hall roof that seems to have the same leak it did five years ago. Sighing in frustration, I wrap my short silky robe tighter around my waist and stroll to the door. My hair freshly washed, face makeup free and toes all snug and warm in my long winter socks that's pulled up to the knee. Once I open the door, I want to die with embarrassment.
“Noel… You’re back?” He holds up the item in his hand. “With wine.”
“I thought after leaving you a little fragile this morning, I’d come and spend the evening with you?” He smiles. Oh god, that smile.
“Because?”
“Because you’re probably not doing anything other than sitting on your own and cursing Christmas.”
He was absolutely right but I frown anyway. “I don’t hate Christmas.”
“And you’re also a rubbish liar.” His eyes fall over my body and I feel them everywhere. Tingles run down my spine but I put this down to the cold that’s currently sweeping its way up under my robe. But even that doesn’t cool the hotness I feel for him between my thighs. There is something about this man that makes my body react even when I fight it not to.
His grin widens as he focuses on my legs. “Excellent choice of socks, Miss King.”
I look down at the long red and grey patterned wool and wiggle my toes. “Thank you. I like my legs to be warm.” His brown eyes are looking right at me once I bring my head back up. He’s delicious. The smell of his citrus fragrance hits my senses as he leans in close, resting a shoulder on the door frame, still wearing that smile.
“It’s a little cold out here, Tamzin.” His voice is low and dreamy. “This is where you invite me in so we can share a drink and get to know each other better.”
My heart instantly speeds up. “And why would I want to do that?” I murmur.
“Because you can’t seem to keep your eyes off me.” Jesus, he’s full of himself. I roll my eyes and open the door a little wider for him to enter but not far enough that he can pass with ease. He brushes against me, never taking his eyes off mine. My breath catches when his hand placed the bareness of my thigh as he whispers. “Thank you, Tami.”
No one calls me Tami; it irritates the shit out of me, yet it rolls off his tongue like perfection.
The promise of December.

-Amelia.
The butterflies took flight in my belly with the way he was making me feel, the ache between my legs escalated and my heart was falling heavier for him.
“Is this the part where we rip each other’s clothes off and you fuck me hard?” I say, biting my lip with anticipation.
He didn’t answer at first, just focused on me with his inevitable gaze.
“No,” he murmured, placing his glass down and slowly moving towards me.
My breathing shallowed. Heart thumping harder in my chest with his proximity as he whispered a breath apart from my lips.
“This is the part where I take off your dress very, very slow and make love to you.”
My breath caught. He can’t use that word, this is not what this is between us, yet I couldn’t stop the whimper that left my lips when his angel whispered kiss touched the side of my mouth. Closing my eyes as once again the powers of this man have engulfed my body, paralysing me in a mind-blowing way to only his touch.
“Will you let me, Amelia?” he whispered. “Will you let me make love to you?”
The thoughts in my head and my feelings I have for him were fighting a losing battle. The need to have him now was far greater at this moment than it had ever been in all the times we’d shared together, and I knew that whatever happens between us he would break me one way or another and my heart would yet again face its wreckage.
“Yes,”

EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT
-Amelia.
As if he knew of my hesitation he turns and looks down at me with furrowed eyes.
“Everything alright?”
“Um… I’m not sure.”
He slowly steps back down with a look on his face that I can’t work out. The crispness of his white shirt hugs his firm body while dark washed jeans rest perfectly on his hips. He oozed magnetism, profession and intimidation but as he stepped closer it was his eyes that struck me.
In the brighter light, the honey hazel colour had flecks of gold. They were warm, inviting. Trusting. Something I’ve not seen in a man in a long time. A man of his sculpted structure was all the more confusing. His entire body unnerved me but work your way up to his eyes and everything changed. It was as though they didn’t belong to the framework they rested in. They sucked me in and captured me like he saw deep within me. Like he could read my every thought.
“Talk to me,” he coos.
“I’m not one for doing things like this,” I admit, feeling dazed as to why I feel able to be so open with this stranger. However true it may be.
“Like what, having a drink with a guy?”
“Having a drink with a stranger whose expectations are clearly different to mine.”

Marcus
I could tell by the pleading look in her eyes she didn’t want this conversation to continue, so I diverted back to the original topic and went for the something ridiculous.
“Seagulls scare me shitless.”
Her laughter was like music to my ears, making me join her with my preposterous but true confession. “You’re so weird.”
“Am not. Have you seen their eyes?”
“It’s just a bird,” she says through the breaks of her giggles. Clearly finding my phobia amusing I jab her in the waist to stop the teasing, making her jump with a squeal.
“Oh, I’ve found a ticklish spot it seems.” My grin was a mile wide as I raise my brows in devilment.
Her eyes widen as she chokes out her words. “Don’t even think about it.” She retreats and was up on her feet in a flash, backing down towards the beach as the grin still plastered my face. “Marcus… you wouldn’t dare!”
“Oh, I totally would.” I’m up and charging towards her as she sprints the sand in high pitched squeals and laughter. Turning her head to catch my approach as her red hair flies high in the wind as she heads across the beach. “You can’t run from me that easily.” I’m behind her in seconds, grabbing her hips and pulling her to the sand as she shrieks. Straddling her she twists her body begging me to stop with uncontrolled breathing and laughter as I tickle her ribs.
“Stop! Marcus... I can’t breathe!” she pants as the air leaves her lungs.
“You want me to stop? But you love it.” I chuckle.
“Stop...Please!”
Taking her hands in mine I pin them above her head, both breathing heavy from our hysteria, our eyes hold each other’s heated gaze yet hers show a trace of apprehension. She’s so fucking sexy. “I have a powerful urge to kiss you right now, Miss Weston.”
“I don’t think that’s a good idea,” she exhales.
“Why not? You might enjoy it.”
“That’s exactly why it’s not a good idea.”
