(17) Down The Rabbit's Hole.

"........,"

✦ Consider this your official warning: smut ahead! If that's not your cup of tea, feel free to skip to the next chapter where we'll pick up after the fireworks have settled ✦

"........,"

A smirk played on my lips as Winter cupped my face.

Surprise? Not quite.

This unexpected turn was more like a delightful twist in a dull play.

He leaned in, his lips hovering teasingly close.

My hand, swift and decisive, shot out to grip his waist, pulling him closer.

"Intriguing,"

I murmured, my voice a low purr.

Winter's eyes widened a fraction, a flicker of surprise crossing his features before a slow smile curved his lips.

"This is utterly unexpected,"

I continued, my voice a husky whisper.

"Isn't this a bit... impulsive, Marquis?"

My fingers dug playfully into his side, a silent challenge disguised as a playful touch.

He chuckled, a dark, rich sound that sent shivers down my spine.

"Impulsiveness has its charm,"

He countered, his voice a seductive rumble.

"Besides,"

His smirk deepened,

"haven't you always been so eager to please me, Your Grace?"

"Today," I countered, leaning in until our lips brushed, "it appears the tables have turned."

A mischievous glint sparked in my eyes as Winter dropped to his knees, his hand reaching for the fastenings of my trousers.

"Oh, there's no need for that,"

I teased, my voice a low rumble.

"Impatient, aren't we, Marquis? But perhaps a little restraint wouldn't hurt."

Winter paused, his eyes flickering with amusement.

"A challenge, Your Grace?"

He countered, a playful smile tugging at his lips.

"Indeed,"

I replied, leaning back against the plush couch.

"Let's see if your resolve matches your desire."

He straightened, a slow smile spreading across his face.

This unexpected encounter was turning more thrilling with each passing moment.

And I wouldn't dare stop it, perhaps, it was a reward for the fact I'm still alive and sound.

'Not like it's something new,'

I thought.

'Might as well enjoy it.'

As Winter settled back down on his knees, he looked up at me with a grin that smoldered with both cunning and lust.

His hands slowly crept over my trousers, his fingers brushing the bulge that stood out.

I bit my lip, a shiver running down my spine at the sensation.

Winter's eyes never left mine as he unfastened the buttons, revealing my hardening member.

His gaze dropped to the sight before him, and I swore I could see desire simmering in his violet pools.
