The Fire Within
Rain hammers against the windows, each drop a tiny explosion
against the glass. Tap. Tap. Tap. I know I shouldn’t be here.
My hand trembles on the doorknob. Turn back, every instinct
screams. But the scent of woodsmoke, the ghost of his
cologne in the air – they are a current, pulling me in.
I turn around. Crimson flames dance in the fireplace,
licking at the logs, casting shadows that writhe across the
Persian rug like restless spirits. The velvet armchair
where he reads, a worn leather book splayed open on its
cushion. The mahogany coffee table, scarred from nights of
spilled whiskey and whispered confessions. Every surface
holds a memory, a ghost of his touch. The scent of aged
leather and polished wood fills the air.
The fire’s warmth isn’t the only thing making me flush.
My skin feels tight, almost feverish, as his footsteps echo
closer. The floorboards creak under a heavy tread, and my
heart hammers against my ribs.
He’s here.
He emerges from the shadows, his tall, imposing figure
silhouetted against the flames. The firelight illuminates the
sharp angles of his cheekbones, the lines around his
eyes that tell stories of sleepless nights and hard-won
victories.
His eyes, a glacial blue that could freeze the sun, hold a
glint that makes my breath catch. It’s like a shard of ice,
sharp and dangerous yet reflecting a sliver of sunlight that
beckons me closer. The crisp lines of his tailored suit, the
glint of a platinum watch on his wrist – these trappings of
wealth can’t mask the darkness that clings to him, a
darkness that makes my heart pound with forbidden thrill.
Alexander Bourne is back in Port Haven.
The news whispered in hushed tones in town, reached me
days ago, but I dismissed it as wishful thinking, a cruel trick
of my own longing heart.
Yet here he is, standing before me, as real as the rain
soaking through my clothes. I blink once or twice as if trying
to clear a fog from my vision to make sure he is real.
It’s him, all right.
His dark hair, usually meticulously styled, is tousled,
spilling over his forehead in a way that makes him
look both rugged and undeniably handsome. His tanned skin
and blue eyes hold a mixture of longing, regret, and
something darker, something that sends a chill that sinks
deep into my bones.
My Alexander.
The scent of his cologne, that same mix of musk and
spice, hits me first. My stomach clenches, and suddenly, I’m
twenty-two again, standing across a crowded room, his eyes
burning into mine at the grand opening of the EverBlue
Group’s new headquarters. I was hired to design a new logo,
and he was a rising star in the shipping industry, drawing
me in like a river to the sea. His eyes met mine across the
crowded room, a curious familiarity stirred as if we were two
puzzle pieces finally discovering their fit.
