ZAIA.

My heart is pounding as his gaze flickers to my lips, and he runs his tongue along his own plush ones. I swallow hard as a dangerously sexy smirk crosses his lips.

“Relax, I’m only teasing,” he whispers, letting go of my neck. My breath hitches and he gives me a wink, stepping back before he takes off his snow-covered coat.

“Give me that. I’ll go put it to dry.” I say, trying to focus on reality and not this giddy moment that had thrown me off entirely.

He smirks at me as he passes me the coat.

“I’ll place these in the kitchen. Where do you want the gifts?”

“You did get a lot…” I say, feeling bad as he had gone on foot, even his boots and trousers are covered with snow. ” Groceries in the kitchen, gifts in the closet over there. Did you get yourself any clothes?”

“I did.”

“Great. Umm… Get changed and then join us for dinner.” I turn, my heart still racing as I walk away, feeling his eyes upon me.

What was that?

His words keep replaying in my mind, and the moment I’m around the corner, I place a hand on my pounding heart, holding his coat close to my chest. His scent fills my nose, inhale deeply. and I

It’s intoxicating and so addictive…

Focus, Zaia!

I quickly shake it off, put it on the rack to dry and return to the kitchen where Sebastian has placed the grocery bags on the counter and is ruffling Xander’s hair.

“Mommy made chips. Do you want some?” Xander asks him.

“Of course I do. I’ll just go change first,” he says, giving them a small smirk before his gaze flicks to me.

Shame he won’t be in a towel.1

My cheeks burn at my thought, and his smirk grows. For a moment, it makes me doubt if my walls were up, but they are. He says nothing as he saunters out of the kitchen.

“Daddy is very handsome, isn’t he?” Sia remarks, and I quickly look at her, hoping she didn’t catch me staring.

“Of course he is. That’s why you children are so beautiful.” I declare.

Zion smiles as Xander tilts his head. “I am the most handsome.” He states, taking a forkful of food. I laugh, taking the seat next to him as I begin putting some more food on his plate.

“Yes, you are. Now let’s wait for Daddy to come so we can eat together.” I say and Xander nods, quickly putting his fork down.

“Oops. Sorry, Mommy.”

“It’s quite alright,” I reply, kissing his forehead.

We’ve finished eating and I’m clearing up the table, after telling the rest to go spend time with their dad, but the sink isn’t draining…

I sigh, standing there with my hands on my hips, staring at the pile of dishes. I had put something down the drain hoping it helped, but now running the tap, that clearly didn’t work.

“Coffee?”

I look up as Sebastian walks back in. He looks good in a white fitted T-shirt that strains against his muscles, showing off the new tattoo sleeve I saw earlier over dinner.

“Yes, please,” I say. He nods as he switches the machine on.

“So, when did you get that tattoo?” I ask, my gaze going to his arm again. There’s a forest, a moon and I can see there are wolves on it.

“A year or so back.” He responds as he comes over. “Are you alright over here?”

“The sink. I think it’s blocked, but I don’t think the de-clogging liquid worked.” I say picking up the Drain Unblocker and shaking the empty bottle.

“Maybe something is blocking it further down.” He muses, crouching down as he opens the cabinet.

“Do you know how to check?” I ask, bending to look under the sink again.

He looks up, our eyes meeting and I realise we’re too close…

“It can’t be that hard,”

“Which means no.” I counter lightly tucking my hair behind my ear, only for it to fall forward once more.

“Do you think I can’t?” he asks challengingly.
