The winter air was crisp and biting, but inside the dimly lit lounge, warmth radiated from every corner. Flickering candles adorned the dark wood tables, their soft glow reflecting off ruby-red wine glasses and the slow sway of couples wrapped in the enchantment of Valentine’s Day. The scent of roses and sweet vanilla lingered in the air, mingling with the soft hum of a jazz saxophone that danced from the corner of the room.

Nathalie hadn’t planned on being here alone. She had envisioned the night differently—shared laughter over dinner, the clink of glasses toasting to love, and the comforting warmth of familiar arms around her waist. Instead, she sat alone, nursing a half-empty glass of wine, watching the world move around her as though she were a ghost—untouchable and unseen.

It wasn’t bitterness that coloured her mood, but resignation. Plans had changed, life had shifted, and the carefully curated dream of the evening had slipped through her fingers. She exhaled slowly, letting the disappointment melt into the soft buzz of the wine that warmed her veins.

“Is this seat taken?”

The voice was smooth, unwavering. Nathalie glanced up, startled, and found herself staring into the most mesmerizing pair of dark eyes she had ever seen. They were warm and curious, like melted chocolate, framed by lashes that would make anyone envious. The man standing before her was tall, broad-shouldered, with a quiet confidence that hinted at power, but exuded gentleness.

She blinked, momentarily speechless, before offering a small smile. “No, it’s not.”

He slid into the seat across from her, his movements fluid, graceful, as though he belonged there all along. “It seems a shame for you to be sitting alone tonight,” he said, his lips curving into a slow smile. “A woman like you deserves company.”

While usually this would have made her roll her eyes, Nathalie tilted her head, curiosity piqued. “And you think you’re the right company?”

“I do,” he said simply, the corner of his mouth quirking up in playful challenge, “but you’ll have to let me prove it.”

The boldness of his words sent a shiver down her spine, a delicious tingle of anticipation she hadn’t felt in far too long. She studied him, the faint stubble on his jaw, the way his shirt hugged the broad expanse of his chest, and the effortless way he held her gaze.

“Tell me your name,” she said, her voice softer now, curious.

“Leon,” he replied, leaning in slightly, his presence magnetic. “And yours?”

“Nathalie.”

He repeated her name slowly, savoring it, as if tasting it on his tongue. “Nathalie,” he said again, the sound of it in his voice like silk. “What are you doing here all alone on Valentine’s Day?”

She shrugged, swirling the wine in her glass. “Plans fell through.”

“Well, I’m glad they did,” Leon said, his voice dropping to a low murmur. “Otherwise, I wouldn’t have had the chance to sit with you this evening.”

There was something intoxicating about the way he looked at her, as if she were the only person in the room, as if nothing else mattered. It was dangerous, exhilarating, and entirely unexpected. She felt her pulse quicken, the heat rising in her cheeks, and wondered if it was the wine—or him.

“And what were your plans tonight?” she asked, her voice playful now, teasing.

He smiled, leaning back in his chair, fingers trailing over the rim of his glass. “I didn’t have any,” he admitted, his eyes glinting with amusement. “I suppose fate decided for me.”

Nathalie laughed softly, the sound light, like a weight lifting off her chest. “Fate, huh?”

“Don’t you believe in it?” he asked, his voice a whisper, the question hanging between them.

She hesitated, then smiled, telling him half-teasingly, “I think I’m starting to.”

The night unfolded slowly, seamlessly, with the easy flow of conversation and the gentle pull of something deeper. They spoke of everything and nothing, their words laced with flirtation, each glance more heated than the last. The world around them blurred, until it was just the two of them, cocooned in the warmth of their connection.

Eventually, Leon reached across the table, his fingers brushing against hers, the touch electric. “Come with me,” he said softly, his voice a low murmur, an invitation and a promise all at once. “Come back to my place tonight.”

Her breath caught. Every instinct told her this was reckless, impulsive—but every part of her ached to follow him. She nodded, her lips curving into a smile. “Okay, lead the way.”

He took her hand, guiding her through the softly lit lounge and out into the crisp night air. Snowflakes fell gently around them, the world silent, as if holding its breath for what came next. Leon’s hand was warm in hers, steady, grounding.

They didn’t speak as they walked, the electricity between them buzzing louder than words. He led her to a nearby condominium, the kind with velvet curtains and gilded mirrors in the lobby.

Inside the apartment, the door clicked shut behind them, and the air thickened with anticipation. Leon turned to her, his eyes dark with desire, and cupped her face in his hands. “Nathalie,” he whispered, his voice reverent, almost a prayer. “Are you ready?”

“Yes,” she breathed, and that single word was all it took.

His lips crashed into hers, soft yet demanding, tasting of wine and promises. She melted into him, her fingers tangling in his hair, pulling him closer. His hands roamed her body, urgent and exploring, as if he couldn’t get enough of her.

The heat between them was unbearable, intoxicating. Clothes fell away in a blur of hurried hands and whispered names, their bodies colliding with an urgency that bordered on desperation.

Leon’s hands found her waist, lifting her effortlessly onto the bed. His mouth traced a path down her neck, over her collarbone, and lower still, worshipping every inch of her. She arched beneath him, lost in the sensation, the sheer intensity of his touch.

When they finally came together, it was as if the world shattered and rebuilt itself in the same breath—every kiss, every touch, every breath shared in perfect harmony. 

Nathalie lay beneath Leon, her body still humming from the kisses that had set her skin ablaze, from the feeling of him moving inside of her. The weight of him pressed against her, his scent—a heady mix of cedarwood and the faintest trace of musk—filled her senses, intoxicating. Her fingers tangled in his thick hair, drinking up the softness, the way he groaned when she tugged lightly, as if the smallest touch from her unravelled him.

She wanted more. Needed more.

Leaning up on one elbow, Nathalie shifted, her lips grazing the stubble along his jawline. She trailed soft, lingering kisses down the column of his neck, tasting the salt of his skin, feeling the rapid pulse beneath her lips. Leon’s breath hitched, his hands tightening at her waist as though he needed to anchor himself. But she wasn’t ready to let him have absolute control—not yet, at least.

She kissed her way down his chest, her tongue flicking against the hollow at his collarbone, the tension between them thickening with every brush of her lips. Leon exhaled sharply, his fingers digging into the curve of her hip, but he didn’t stop her. He watched, eyes dark, filled with need and anticipation as she made her slow descent.

Her hands found his hip bones, thumbs grazing either one in a slow circular motion. She didn’t rush, taking in the moment, the feeling of power as she saw the way he trembled beneath her touch. She glanced up, meeting his gaze, her eyes alight with mischief and desire.

“Let me take care of you now,” she whispered, her voice sultry and low. It wasn’t a question.

Leon groaned, his head falling back against the pillows, and he murmured her name like a plea, as if surrendering everything to her. "Nathalie..."

With deliberate care, she eased her lips over his throbbing shaft, her nails dragging lightly over his skin, leaving goosebumps in their wake. She took her time, teasing him, feeling the heat radiating from him in her mouth, hearing the way his breath grew ragged, like he was barely holding on.

The tension between them hung thick, the anticipation humming in the air like a taut string waiting to snap. She relished the way he came undone beneath her touch, how her name sounded rough, raw on his lips as she teased him further.

This was their moment—slow, burning, and entirely theirs.
