I could spend hours between Tamrynâs legs if given the opportunity. Just my luck, though, that the slight flurry that started when Sally and Hunter came to wake me up is not a full-blown snowstorm.
If the news is to be believed, we arenât just looking at the first white Christmas Shadowvale has seen in two decades. Weâre looking at a Christmas blizzard, and I canât wait.
Too bad that means I also canât bend her over and fuck her against Emersonâs grave like Iâve spent way too many years fantasizing about.
I have to bring Tam back inside. Itâs too cold, and the temperature is dropping. However, now that itâs Christmas day, weâre both wide awake, and she inadvertently triggered the prey instinct I have spent my whole damn life trying to ignore, Iâm not just going back to bed.
If I donât get inside this woman and claim her as mine, I donât know what Iâll do. It wonât be good, though, so for the sake of Christmas for every last person in Shadowvale, Iâm doing this now.
Promising her Iâll warm her up, I take Tam in my arms; sheâs boneless from pleasure, but also shivering from the cold. I didnât even stop to pull on my shoes before I ran after her so the only thing warming up my chest is her heat and the undeniable need I feel for her.
Weâre back inside within minutes. Hunter and Sally have made themselves scarce, either going to sleep again, or taking the time for a two a.m. quickie, their favorite.
I swear, I will give Sally Clark whatever the fuck she wants for what she just did. I tolerated her for Hunterâs sake, but for being the one to make sure Tamryn couldnât get away, then getting Hunter to let them both into the red room to alert me? Anything she wants is hers. Shit, Iâll even toss her the keys to my red Maserati despite the teal green one Hunterâs giving her later today.
If she hadnât gotten up for a glass of something to drink, if Tamryn managed to find her way out into the snow and it took until I woke up on my own to track her, who knows what could have happened to her?
No. This is exactly why I have to keep her right where I want her. She might not believe it yet, but sheâll never be safer anywhere other than in my reach.
Does she know what plans I have for her?
Considering the way she asks me to put her down in a tired voice once I bring her back to the red room, thereâs a good chance.
I set her on her feet. She stumbles. Iâm right there to catch her, satisfied when she doesnât pull away, but falls against my chest instead.
It takes her a second to notice. Clearing her throat, she straightens, then says, âSorry. Iâm really tired. Iâd like to go to bed now.â
Oh, Tam. If only.
I let her think that she can get away with trying to leave me without any consequences.
