“Mm, Ms. West, I’m gonna need ye back in the cottage. Now,” Alex ground out between kisses.

Quinn pulled back, throwing him a flirty smile. “So demanding, Sergeant Mackenzie.”

“Aye, Ms. West. I’ve another Christmas present for ye inside by the fire.” Powerless to his need for her, he kissed her between words.

Giggling against his lips and holding his face to hers, she whined, “But it’s cold between here and there. And I’m rather comfy right where I am.” She rubbed her body against his to make her point.

Christ. Alex was tempted to take her right there and then. It had been a very long time since he’d had sex with a woman. And God, how he wanted to have sex with Quinn West, but he realized as he looked into her beautiful face, that it was so much more than that.

“Dinnae fash. I’ll keep ye warm, lass.” His voice dripped with promise.

“Fine,” she pouted, and he was sorely tempted to kiss that pout from her face, but he had other plans.

Letting go of him, she sank back into the water up to her chin and watched him unabashed as he exited the hot tub. Looking at his body, she anticipated what was to come. With his legs so thick and powerful, his muscled back, and his tight ass…Jeepers.Hard to believe he was the jerk cop who’d pulled her over less than a week ago.Hot Cop,she thought.

Fully naked and looking like a god, he quickly shoved his winter boots on and stood at the edge of the hot tub, gesturing for her to come to him. An irresistible sight if she ever saw one. She stayed low in the water and moved to the side of the tub where he stood.

“Ready?” he asked “Put your arms around my neck, lass. I’ll carry ye in.”

She looked at him with her brown eyes glittering. Standing up on the seat in the hot tub, she felt the rushing bite of cold mountain air on her body and practically leapt into Alex’s arms. He easily caught her and held her firmly to his strong naked torso as he deftly carried her to the back door and into the cottage.

Setting her down on her feet, he dropped a quick kiss on her lips. “Go warm by the fire. I’m just going to grab the champagne.”

Alex stepped in the back door and saw Quinn wrapped in a blanket and sitting in one of the comfy chairs in front of the fireplace. She looked up at him, pinning him with her big brown eyes and he felt desire course through him anew. Christ she could bring him to his knees with that look.

When he’d gone back out, he considered that this might be the stupidest decision, but he no longer gave a shite. Over the past couple days, Quinn West had filled his every sense—poured over him and dripped into every crevice of his being like hot custard drizzled over fucking Christmas cake. His restraint was out the window, and at this point, good fucking riddance. It was high time to sink his cock into the warm sweetness of Ms. Quinn West.

“Come here, little lass.” His voice was husky and deep.

Quinn stood with the tartan blanket wrapped around her and walked towards him. He didn’t think he’d ever seen a more perfect sight. When she stood before him, she opened the blanket, letting him feast his eyes on her naked body.

“There’s room for two in here.” She looked at him from under her lashes.

“God, Quinn, ye are beautiful,” Alex breathed, lifting his hands to run them over her curvy hips.

Goosebumps arose on her skin as he methodically ran his hands slowly and gently over her every curve. His eyes appreciatively followed his hands as he took in the shape and feel of her body.

Any thoughts of being immune to this woman were long gone. She felt too perfect in his hands. Alex’s need for her went far beyond anything he’d known. He’d desired women before, but this was different. He was completely under her spell, and if he was going to pay some kind of price, so be it. He needed to sink into her, to watch her as she took him in, to taste her as he pleasured her fully.

“Christ, woman, ye are perfect.” Alex’s breath was ragged.

“Glad you finally noticed, Sergeant Mackenzie.” She threw him a provocative grin.

He growled as he grabbed her ample behind and hauled her up against him, letting her feel the proof of just what she did to him, and he felt satisfied when he heard her breath hitch against his neck.

Running the tip of his nose along her jaw, he whispered, “Aye, lass, I noticed.”

His mouth found hers, and their tongues collided, clawing for more. Alex was aware of her lush breasts crushed against him, and he couldn’t resist their temptation any longer. Even though her mouth was heaven, he broke their kiss and set her back down on her feet. Noting the longing in her eyes, he threw her a wicked look from under his brow right before he dropped down to his knees. Those luxurious breasts were at just the right height for him to taste.

“My God,” he groaned as he took in the sight of her.

She giggled breathily, and he grinned up at her before snatching one of those perfectly pink nipples into his mouth. She cried out in ecstasy. Her hands clung to his shoulders and neck.

Alex savoured her delectable breasts, unable to get enough. He reached his hand up between her silky thighs, finding her core wet and wanting. His cock throbbed, and he groaned as he slid a finger and then two into her. The need to slide his cock into her slick heat overwhelmed him.

Standing, he hiked her up in his arms and carried her to the great room, laying her down on the area rug in front of the fireplace. Lowering his body down onto hers, his skin sizzled, aching for more. Kissing her full lips, his pulsing cock nudged at her wet slit, teasing as he allowed the length of him to slide slowly from bottom to top and back again. Christ, how had he refrained from sex for so long? The feel of her, the smell of her—all of it was making his body thrum.

“Fill me up, Sergeant Mackenzie,” she begged him breathlessly.
