This chapter is dedicated to @Edenn! Thank you so much for the supergift!
The temptation was so strong that when he pulled her against his body, she suddenly felt like she had gone all boneless and weak again. She was just feeling damned strong and invincible not just a moment ago, feeling as though she could stand her own against the world. But just the next second, she now felt like her knees could not even hold up her own weight and just wanted to tumble onto the bed with him and forget about the world already. All she wanted now was to be frisky and have some fun time with this delicious man!
Only this man could do this to her. And she did not know how to even resist him because her body was obviously helpless under his spell. She just melts like butter in a hot pan whenever he was there seducing her with his deep, grey eyes, or his wonderfully mellow voice or his perfectly chiselled body.
But just as she was about to go on tippy toes and kiss that sinfully inviting mouth of his, then wrap her legs around his waist so he could bring her inside the cabin again, he lifted his head and looked to his side.
That sharp and alert reaction… Alicia already knew that someone might be coming – or they might even be nearby already – because his aura, his expression… everything about the carefree Ezekiel had suddenly and sadly seemed to have disappeared in the blink of an eye. It was like the stoic Ezekiel had taken over the reins again.
"Someone's coming." He whispered lowly into her ears.
"An enemy?" Alicia already had herself prepared.
"No."
"Oh…" Alicia scolded herself for actually feeling a bit disappointed. It seemed as though she was itching to fight whoever it was that would dare come over and tried to separate them again. She was itching to beat them up hard and mercilessly if they dared to come at them again. But if it was not enemy, was it okay for her to be seen like this now?
He guided her behind him. His broad back shielding her from the view of whoever it was that was approaching fast towards their cabin. And this one gesture was enough for her to understand that Ezekiel did not seem on planning to show her newest 'upgrade' to whoever this visitor was.
"What is it?" his usual, unfeeling tone echoed out once the visitors arrived. She could tell that there were two people that had arrived. One was a vampire, and the other was a male witch. She could tell just by listening to their heartbeats.
"Your Highness… uhm…" that voice belonged to no one else but Lucas! Alicia would be able to recognise his voice even if she did not see him! "Alexander wanted me to send you a message."
"Get on to it, Lucas."
"Alexander said that you and Alicia must arrive at his home for the twins' baby shower tomorrow. He said excuses will not be accepted."
