His Christmas Cookie

I rush around giving everyone goodbyes because our family acts like we might never see the person again when we leave.

When I’m finally out the door, I let out a sigh of relief as I get out my keys and into my car.

I’m safe, for tonight at least.Chapter 6FrostMy driver pulls up outside her parents’ house, but when I look around I only see her car. I tell him to park down the street and wait for me because I don’t want them seeing us here in their home alone.

I walk around the back of the house and try the patio door. It’s locked, so I reach along the top edge of the doorframe for the key. My fingers graze it, and I shake my head as I unlock the door and put it back. I need to remind her parents about safety, but I’ll do it after I’m gone.

When I get inside, I stand in the kitchen and listen for a moment to see if I can figure out where she is. It’s completely dark downstairs, but in the distance I hear water running. I take the stairs nearly two at a time as I make my way to the noise.

The bedroom door is closed but isn’t locked. I sneak in and close it behind me. The door to the en suite bathroom on the other side of the room is cracked and the shower’s on. I hear her in there, and my cock swells as I move closer.

By the time I make it to the door, the water has shut off. I ease it open and it quietly reveals her standing there completely naked and soaking wet. I lick my lips as she reaches for her towel and quickly hides all of her beauty from me.

“Are you running from me, kiska?”

She screams and nearly slips, but I’m there to catch her and pull her against me.

“Get out of here! What are you doing?”

I look down at her where she holds the towel between us and smile. “Chasing you. Isn’t that what you want?”

“No,” she snaps quickly, but it’s too quick, and we both know it’s a lie.

“You didn’t give me time to explain.” There’s hurt in her eyes as she jerks away from my hold and moves past me. I get an eyeful of her big round ass and she spins around to cover it.

“I want you to leave.” That stubborn chin of her rises and it almost brings me to my knees. Does she know the power she has over me?

“Nyet.” I step forward, and she steps back.

“I’ll call the cops,” she threatens, and I shake my head.

“No, you will not.” I take another step forward, and she backs into the sink behind her.

“Frost.” Her voice is shaky as I bring a hand up and trace the curve of her face I love so much.

“Why do you fight me?”* * *“Who was that woman?” she demands, and the fire in her eyes makes me burn for her. I don’t miss that she’s changing the subject.

“A woman my mother is demanding that I marry.” She blinks a few times at me, and perhaps she’s surprised by my honesty. “I know her from when I was younger. Her family is connected, and my parents leech off of their friendship.”

“Oh.” Cookie looks around like she’s trying to decide where to put her anger.

“Kiska.” I take her chin in my hand and force her to look at me. “She is nothing to me, only a weapon to my mother.”

“Why is your mom doing that? And why would that woman agree to it? It seems sad and desperate to chase after someone that doesn't want you.”

“I am not entirely sure that Chel knows this is manipulation.” I shrug as I trace the edge of her jaw with my thumbs. “My mother will do anything to get what she wants, including arranging a false marriage. I don’t know the lengths she’ll go to in order to have me bend, but I know that when she wants something bad enough, she will use force.”

“I’m sorry, I—”

“Nyet.” I cut her off. “I am sorry that I didn’t explain sooner what she is capable of. But know that I would never do anything to hurt you.”

“Frost.” She lets out a long sigh. “I still don’t think this is a good idea.”

“That’s easy,” I whisper, leaning in and licking a drop of water off her neck. “Don’t think, just feel.”

I move my mouth lower and over her collarbone. I kiss her there and drink in the water that clings to her soft skin. She closes her eyes, and her head falls back. I take the towel between us and toss it away.

Her breasts are bare, and I put my face between them as I lick the curve of them and the shell of her nipples. She moans as I tease her and graze my teeth over the tight peak. Her body responds as they pucker, and my mouth waters to taste them.
