Jesus Christ, the way this man kissed should be illegal! It was all Rae could do not to melt into a puddle on the rug in front of him. Instead she settled for smoothing her hands over the front of his shirt, crumbling the fabric in nerveless fingers. He moved, turning her in mid-kiss. Cradled in his arms he lowered her to lie on her back in front of the fire. His fingers stroked the sensitive skin at the nape of her neck as he leaned over her.

The firelight turned his pale eyes to amber. Amber laced with a dark expression that made her shiver as he reached out, winding a strand of her hair around his finger.

“You’re beautiful, absolutely beautiful.” His soft words captivated her, curled around her heart, and Rae was lost. This was wrong, she knew it was wrong. She wasn’t who he thought she was; she wasn’t his wife, and to let him carry on with thinking that was a huge breach of trust.

“Logan.” Her hand stopped him before he could kiss her again. He did and she wouldn’t have the strength to stop this, to put things right.

He paused, looking down at her in concern. “What’s the matter love? Am I going too fast? I’m sorry… I’ll stop… I shouldn’t have pushed you.” He sat up, his back to her as he looked into the fire broodingly. Behind him Rae sat up slowly, worry and nerves twisting in her gut.

“I’m sorry.” He sighed, a deep heartfelt sigh and racked a hand through his close cropped hair. His hand was shaking.

“I don’t want to screw this up. I have this weird feeling I won’t get a second chance.” He paused and laughed. A derisive little sound that pulled at Rae’s heart-strings. “But then I kiss you and I can’t help myself. You’re driving me mad, Rae.”

She crept forwards, her hand stealing out to touch him on the arm. A gentle touch to reassure, to give comfort. His hand closed over hers. He looked over his shoulder, the expression in his eyes one of anguish.

“Please Rae, just let me hold you.” He begged and she was lost. She couldn’t refuse a plea like that, not from another person only wanting comfort. She nodded, settling against him as he lay down on his back and pulled her into his arms. She rested her cheek on his chest and closed her eyes. Comfortable in front of the fire and nestled against the length of his body, she started to drift off.

Logan felt the instant her body started to relax, and smiled up at the ceiling. Everything was going perfectly. She’d had a long day and had been on her feet for most of it. The hot bath had been calculated to relax her and with a full stomach she’d actually started to nod off. Far from being annoyed Logan was pleased. It meant she was getting more comfortable with him. Which meant he could move the evening into phase two.
