I'd Burn For You

He is frigid and icy to the touch, but even he cannot escape their sweltering connection, not even when fate itself defies their love. *** EXCERPT: "I think your wife would find this scene quite unsettling," I reminded him, my voice unwillingly softer, albeit with a painful pang in my chest. I obstinately focused my eyes on the frying pan. Nonetheless, my golden eyes were trembling nonstop from his presence. My quivering fingertips on the lukewarm wooden handle felt numb. His deep voice responded with an airy chuckle. He followed to further impress his well-proportioned body against my perspiring back, his strong arms curling over my clenched stomach. I could feel every curve and plane of his body gently calling my body to surrender and wanted so much to moan in his embrace, but I bit my lower lip and suppressed the urge. His chin was on my shoulder as he asked, teasingly, his breath igniting tingles over my bare neck, "Is that really what you think?" *** Aisha Ergot is the fugitive heiress and the last of a mystical tribe of supernatural entities. Regardless of the money she was born to inherit, all she wants is to pursue the stars in her dream career. Driven by wild, uncontrollable passion, she escapes - only to cross paths with the one man who freezes her burning spirit, and shares an irrefutable connection to her. Alexander Sear is the eccentric entity and epoch-old being who appears and disappears quickly, austerely leaving behind him an endless trail of broken hearts and astonished gasps at his boundless affluence. Nonetheless, away from the blinding sear of the spotlight, he is a broken man mindlessly searching for a cure to his revulsion to sunlight. What will follow with the sudden entrance of the seductive Aisha who makes his blood boil with one touch? *** Tags: #age-gap #supernatural #showbiz #babysitter Yes, there's a huge age gap which shocked even the author(my horny self *anxious laughter*), but that's supposed to be a secret. This is a fast-paced romance in a contemporary setting albeit with some supernatural elements. It's in England, but you don't need to imagine all the characters with a British accent. I sure didn't. My first attempt at writing mature scenes - I'm sorry, my sweet, sweet innocence(the absence of my innocence shall be mourned in silence)(and the innocence of my readers). Thanks for reading!
