Chapter 140
Making my way back to him as best as I can in the thick blanket of snow I ask, ''Aren't you coming?''
He shakes his head, making me pout sadly. ''You carry on. I've got some paperwork to do.''
As he turns around to walk away, I grin and roll up a snowball before throwing it at his back. He freezes when it hits him and turns slowly to look at me with a raised brow. I look around innocently and shrug my shoulders while biting down on my lip to stifle the smile threatening to escape.
''Don't start something you can't finish, amor.'' He warns before turning back again. (Love)
Another snowball hits his back making him growl loudly. He spins around, a mischievous glint in his eyes making me shriek and run around the house while he chases me. I cry out as a snowball hits my arm, breaking apart at the impact. Hiding behind a tree, I roll up a couple of snowballs before launching them at him. In an instant, I have none left and can no longer hear Gabriel chuckling.
Peeking out from behind the tree, I look around the vast back garden to see no-one in sight. Frowning, I step out further and call his name. There is no reply. Walking ahead, I check every possible hiding spot only to come up empty. Rounding the side of the house, I find and empty driveway as well. He must've gone back inside, I think, shrugging to myself. He did say he has paperwork to do. As I bend down to roll up some more snow, I'm tackled to the ground. A loud scream escapes my lips and I struggle to turn around. The heavy weight soon lifts and I see Gabriel running off to the back, snickering. Yelling his name, I laugh and follow him. Just before I round the corner, I put together an army of snowballs before peeking out and throwing them at him.
''Slow down, amor. You're throwing at empty space.''
I peek to see if I really am aiming at nothing, only to be hit in the face and arm with snowballs. Shrieking, I wrench myself away from the corner of the house. Wiping the snow from my eyes and cheeks, I shiver at how cold the snow feels. My lips are now numb from it.
''Ow.'' I mumble, shaking the snow off my hair.
''Sorry, sweetheart.'' Gabriel walks up to me, sweeping some snow off my hat as he holds my waist with one hand.
I look up at him, flakes of snow caught in our eyelashes. His eyes suddenly burn with intensity as he leans down to press his lips to mine in the softest of kisses. His touch heats me up instantly making me moan and press myself closer to him. My mark burns with heat as his hands come up to cup my face while mine hold onto his jacket. Angling my head, I open once his tongue swipes at my lips. This time I let him lead, our tongues dancing and slowly becoming desperate for air. One of his hands slip down to the small of my back and pulls me impossibly closer.
He lets out a groan when I pull away, gasping for air. I laugh at his sad expression before biting his bottom lip. Growling, he smashes his lips back onto mine again making me gasp. A husky groan escapes his lips when I tug at his chocolate brown strands. Even though the wind blows lightly around us our bodies begin to shiver from the cold, we press closer to each other to seek warmth. Eventually, we pull away sometime later with me blushing bright and him smiling down at me softly.
''Do you have a carrot?'' I ask, suddenly.
''Probably, why?'' He looks at me in confusion.
''Let's build a snowman!'' I gasp loudly, running back inside to grab whatever I can.
I rummage through the kitchen and find a carrot before running upstairs to grab a hat, scarf and some gloves. Walking out to the back garden, I grin at Gabriel when I see that he is halfway through making the body. I roll up some snow for the head and carry it over to him, watching as he places it on. Giving him the hat, I wrap the scarf around the snowman's neck while he sticks in the branches for the arms and places the gloves on. Grabbing some stones, I press them in to make eyes and a smile, using the leftover stones as buttons for his chest. We back away and I smile at our masterpiece.
''We make a pretty good team.'' Gabriel murmurs, intertwining our hands.
''That we do!'' I laugh, following as he guides me back inside the house.

I'm blow drying my hair when Gabriel steps out of the bathroom with nothing but a white towel wrapped tightly around his waist. Gulping, my eyes follow the beads of water trailing down his sculpted chest before disappearing down the 'v' and soaking the towel.
His head snaps up and the green in his eyes darken before gold flecks burn brightly, making me gasp as he stands before me in an instant and cups my face, his lips descending onto mine. I groan in pleasure as he kisses me hungrily, grasping both my wrists and pinning them to the wall above my head. His hard length presses against my stomach making me tense slightly, moaning loudly when he pulls me onto his waist and rocks his hips against my core, firmly.
"No!" I laugh against his lips when his fingers tug at my shirt, curling around my waist. "Gabriel stop, we just did it in the shower!"
"So? Come on baby, it's only us here." He groans, nibbling on my bottom lip before sucking on it gently.
"You said we can go into town. I want to see the place." I plead, widening my eyes as I look up at him but it proves to be futile when he just shakes his head and starts carrying me over to the bed. "Tonight, I promise."
