then, let’s get our coats.” He pulled me to my feet, his eyes dark and mysterious.
Oh boy! I had a feeling this was going to be a wonderful Christmas.
Nick whisked me away up Fifth Avenue, toward the Upper East Side. I loved the look of the buildings and the surrounding area. We came to a stop in an underground garage minutes later.
“I thought a nightcap at my apartment would be a lovely way to end the evening. Besides, I can't wait to spend some alone time with you. The two young ladies are delightful company, but I've wanted you all to myself for the longest time,” he said, his voice low and sexy, his eyes smoldering.
“ Oh really? ” was all I could manage. My heart was beating madly in my chest. His apartment – alone.
He wiggled his eyebrows playfully. “Yes, really.”
Chapter Twelve
Nick opened the car door for me , led me into the elevator and pressed the button to the top floor. He pulled me against him, my back to his hard chest, his grip around my waist possessive. He pushed my hair aside and planted a gentle kiss in the side of my neck. I sighed. This is heaven .
His teeth nipped lightly at the sensitive skin on my neck as I leaned back against him. I gasped as his lips caught my earlobe and he nibbled it gently. A thousand watts of electricity soared through my body, all joining at the spot between my legs, setting me on fire.
“Nick,” I groaned. He didn’t play fair. How was I supposed to keep my composure around him?
The elevator doors opened , and we stepped into the entrance hall of his apartment. The large open space filled with the fragrance of the fresh flowers on display. An enormous, beautifully decorated Christmas tree dominated the space, its many colorful lights winking at me.
“Welcome to my home .” Nick helped me out of my coat and hung it on a hook.
“It's lovely,” I breathed as I took in the sights around me. Heavy dark wood contrasted with rich cream fabrics, which lent a luxurious and elegant, yet homey, ambience to the space. The glass and ceramic fireplace, which was very sleek and ultra-modern, radiated warmth into the room and had me naturally gravitating toward it. I held my hands out to warm them. Divine.
Large floor to ceiling windows overlooked Central Park, a view very much coveted in the otherwise grey city of skyscrapers. I stared through the window at the lights twinkling in the distance.
“Not nearly as lovely as you,” he said , an appreciative glow in his eyes. Yes! The red dress paid off.
Nick’s arms came around me again as he buried his face in my neck and inhaled deeply. “You smell so good .”
He spun me around in his arms, dipped his head and found my lips. He brushed softly over them with his warm lips; then ran his tongue sensuously along the seam before pushing his tongue into my mouth and caressed mine with long silky strokes – slowly, sensuously, a promise of what was to come. I felt warm and safe in his embrace, his strong arms locked around me, pushing my breasts against his hard torso.
“Hmm, like nectar .” He pulled away. “Come sit while I get us a drink.” He led me toward the oversized couch, directly facing the fireplace. I sank into the luscious cushions and sighed. This was bliss. I felt so at home here with Nick.
From the bar tucked into the corner, Nick extracted a bottle of cabernet sauvignon, my favorite red wine. I watched lazily from under my lashes as he poured the rich burgundy liquid through an aerator into two glasses with expert economical movements.
Nick must have sensed that I was watching him, because he looked up and gave me a dazzling smile that nearly arrested my heart. God, I still couldn’t believe how lucky I was to be here alone with him.
My mouth went dry , and I licked my lips. Is this really happening to me? It felt like a dream – a really good dream. A slow throb settled at my apex, and I squeezed my legs together as I smiled back at him. He glided smoothly across the room
