11 – CINNAMON STICKS & J.D.

I’d returned to the cottage last night after we’d eaten. I had to put some space between Easton and me. As much as I enjoyed his kisses and being in his presence, I needed to make sure that I wasn’t making a mistake and that I wasn’t getting involved with him for the wrong reasons.

As the night neared an end, I told him that I wasn’t feeling well and needed rest. The look in his eyes was full of disappointment, but I wasn’t certain if I was reading anything into it or not. It was hard walking away from him like that, and it bothered me.

But I knew I needed to think with a clear mind. If those carolers hadn’t shown up when they did, there was no telling what would have jumped off between the two of us.

Marc Easton was one fine man. He was a big, sexy ass guy with gorgeous, raven-colored hair that curled back from his forehead. His dark, olive coloring tended to give off Italian vibes, but I knew that he wasn’t. Thick, black eyebrows that arched at the ends just a little set over gorgeous, gunmetal blue eyes.

A slim, gorgeous Greek noseset prominently over a wide mouth with rose-colored lips. The hairs of his beard and mustache, dark and sleek, silky to the touch with a lightly scruffy feeling. Simply put, the man was beautiful.

I guess you’d call him the dark, brooding type. But now, knowing his history, it made sense. He answered many questions about his life last night but not delving too far into his career with the bureau. I sensed there were a lot of secrets there I’d probably never learn. And I was okay with that.

What I wasn’t okay with was developing feelings for the man I’d known for a short time. A man who had a contract with my ex. That somehow seemed like a conflict of interest, but it didn’t stop me from putting my coat on and following him back to his house the next day around noon to decorate the tree.

“Thought I’d come over here and check on you since you haven’t made an appearance yet,” he said, standing at the front door of the cottage house.

“Oh, I’ve just been busy. Doing a little research on your computer here if that’s okay.”

Turning his lips down, hands stuffed in the back pockets of his jeans, he shrugged. “Doesn’t matter to me. Unless you’re researching ways to take a former agent out of here.”

“Not funny,” I said as I followed him along the trail to the big house.

The man had a sexy pair of assets on him, I thought. He stopped just before we got to the door and turned around, looking at me.

“What?” I asked, staring wide-eyed back.

“You were checking out my ass,” he accused.

“No, I wasn’t!” I said, feigning indignation.

“Yes, you were. You were watching my ass. Want a private show?” Easton asked as he stepped up to the door and pushed it open.
