Bliss…
I've always
loved Christmas…the music, wrapping presents, putting your stocking up, children
getting excited—heck me getting excited. Mince pies, mulled wine, opening
presents…you name it.
So, I've written a Christmas flash, just for you all.
Sasha Sinclair
isn't sure about the whole Christmas excitement bit. After all, who has she got to be excited
with? Luton the cat wasn't going to drink mulled wine and eat Christmas cake
with her. Yeas he's help with the turkey, but really who in their right minds
would buy a turkey for one person…plus cat?
Well…Okay she'd put her stocking up, but it wasn't the same filling it yourself...
Someone was
shaking her.
Sasha rolled
over and muttered under her breath. She was having somewhat of an erotic dream.
Something about a hot-bod with abs to die for and a smile guaranteed to make
any hot-blooded woman wet in three seconds flat.
"Mrphttmp."
A deep velvet
voice that reminded her of sizzling, deep, spine tingling kisses swirled through her.
"Happy
Christmas love. Come on wake up."
Damnit, whoever sounded like Johnny Depp in
Chocolat should shut up. The last thing Sasha needed was an erotic dream.
"I'm no
dream…well not for ever. Now open your eyes."
Well no, she
didn't think she would. It was Christmas, and if she opened her eyes she'd
realize she was all alone again. Evidently sending Santa a wish list didn't count
once you were over twenty-one. And she had hit that number more than a couple
of years before.
The voice—what
else could she call it—gave her another shake and oh my a nip on her shoulder.
She didn't want
to open her eyes and find Luton her big fluffy cat clawing her and to demand
breakfast. He was a creature of habit, Christmas or not.
Well, that's not Luton.
He was
everything his voice hinted and more,
"Sasha?"
She nodded.
"Chris sent
me?"
Uh?
"You know,
little guy, big beard? Otherwise known as your brother. He said you'd have room
for me. I've just arrived and I've nowhere to stay."
That's
two different stories. Confused.com
"Uh, so no stable?"
"Nope, so
Chris gave me a key, he said chimneys are old hat. And." His voice dipped
lower, like hot chocolate dripping onto her skin and making her sizzle.
"He said you deserved what you wished for. What did you wish for?"
She opened her
eyes. It was him.
"You, you
home for Christmas."
"Well you
got your wish."
