Quietly I told him, “I wish that my life could be simpler next year. This was a bad year in a lot of ways, but it was a great year in others. I left a tough situation, which was the good part. But I’ve been struggling to make my way ever since. I need to stop working seven days a week for one. And on top of that, I need to find a way to enjoy life again.”
He stroked my back. “I don’t know how to simplify your life. But maybe my Christmas wish can help with the last part.”
I looked up at him curiously. “What do you mean by that?”
“Well, now that I’ve had a chance to think about it, there isoneChristmas wish I can think of.”
Grinning up at him, I said, “Tell me! You can’t leave me in suspense.”
A sly smile popped out on his lips, probably prompted by the elderberry wine. “I don’t want to offend you.”
“With your wish? Don’t worry. I won’t get offended.”
He rumbled out a laugh. “All right then. My Christmas wish is a simple one. I want to fuck the Christmas elf.”
My mouth dropped open. “And I assume you’re referring tome?”
Tex stroked my cheek, his eyes taking on a warmth I hadn’t seen before. “You’re the only Christmas elf in a hundred-mile radius, Chloe.”
I forgot to breathe for a second as my brain caught up with the change in him. I could tell that Tex didn’t mean we should sleep together at some point in the future. He meant right here. Right now.
My heart hammered in my chest, and my pussy did somersaults.
There was no need to mull it over in my mind. I’d wanted him since the first moment I’d laid eyes on him back at the sleigh ride. Whether it was just for tonight or something more would be in his hands.
On my end, I was ready to quit my job and move in with him, which wascrazy.
When I didn’t say anything in response, he asked, “Did I take it too far?”
“No. No. Not too far,” I told him, feeling shy for the first time since I’d been here.
He cleared his throat. “Would you be willing to put your elf costume back on? It’s sexy as hell.”
“You mean these cashmere sweatpants aren’t getting you riled up?” I joked, covering up my nervousness.
“You look good in them, too. I have a feeling you’d look good in anything you put on, Chloe.”
Looking into his eyes, I could see he was serious.
My cheeks flushed warm, and I stammered, “Let me go get changed then. I’ll be right back. But Santa might need to come out to play. Do you still have your Santa hat?”
He chuckled. “You want to take it that far? All right. I’ll be your Santa tonight.”
Chapter 14
Tex
My cock was about to explode out of my Santa costume.
I surprised Chloe with more than just the hat. I still had the whole costume at my house. Rod’s days of playing dress-up were likely done, and I figured I’d be the one keeping the sleigh ride business afloat going forward. It was Rod’s only source of income other than his social security check, and he liked to generate extra cash around the holidays so he could be generous to others. He always went big on the gifts.
It hurt that I wasn’t going to spend Christmas with him tomorrow unless I snowmobiled out there. But would Chloe be willing to go with me? It would be a long, cold journey to see a man she didn’t even know. But I wouldn’t feel right leaving her behind.
But I couldn’t dwell on any of that too much. Not after she came into the bedroom, revealing her costume to me.
Those candy cane socks were back on her legs, and my cock inched up even higher at the sight of her. She was all tits and ass. Curves and cushion.
I liked a woman with some extra meat on her bones, and Chloe had a lot of extra meat.
