Frosty, Inc

by Trinity Blacio

  Squeezing her ass tight, bending his knees, Keane thrust in three times quick and hard, hitting that spot that triggered her orgasm and had her screaming like a banshee. All she could think of was her man better have sound-proofed their room or their son would be running up the stairs any minute.

  Sweat ran down the middle of her boobs, as Holly rested her head on his shoulder, once she had released her nails “Are you okay?” she asked, reaching up and pushing her hair out of her face.

  “Mmm, I’m so, so, sorry.” Keane said and carried her into the bathroom, sitting her onto the counter.

  “Why?” she asked, looking up at the most handsome man she had ever seen.

  “We had to cut short everything because of me…” he mumbled and headed towards the bathroom.

  “Keane, we are both new to this. We knew it was going to take us some time to get used to our bond and I do not regret one minute of it. I never knew a hard loving was so…powerful and what you do with your…” she glanced down at his hardening cock and smiled. “Well, it would seem we get to try out the shower again, don’t we?” Holly said.

  “But this time put a damn water pillow under my ass if you’re going to have me on that uncomfortable seat in there. I was bruised the last time.” Holly mumbled as she stepped into the shower with Keane right behind her.

  Keane swept her up in his arms, holding onto her as he stepped under the warm water. “I love you, my soras. I don’t know how I was so lucky to pair with you, but each morning when I wake up and see you in my bed…” Keane covered her mouth, as he lowered her legs to the floor, but lifted one leg up, sliding into her again.

  The man was a walking sex god, she thought, and she was amazed by the positions he put her in, but she’d never complain, loving each time they joined together their bodies, minds, and souls. Holly broke the kiss, staring at the man who was her other half.

  This time there was no build up. Keane hit that spot inside her, especially since she was already primed and ready to go. The stars she loved to stare up at night now exploded in her mind.

  Her body trembled in his hands, and Holly would have melted to the floor in a pile of heated goo if it wasn’t for Keane holding on to her tight. Even in the shower, the both of them were sweaty and stuck to each other, just like their souls.

  Holly started to giggle and Keane looked down at her. “I didn’t think my love making was so funny?” he said, placing a kiss on her cheek as he lowered her leg down.

  “It’s not, and you know it, Mr. Sex God.” She patted his chest before turning and stepping under the warm water. “I was thinking how our bodies were stuck together because we were all sweaty and that our souls are the same way.”

  “I’ll have you know our souls are not stuck together—they are melded together in love,” he nipped her shoulder as he reached over and grabbed the soap.

  “I know that, silly. How could I not?” Holly looked up at him behind her. “You know, that right? That I love you.”

  Chapter Eighteen

  Frosty left a very sated Holly curled up on the couch with their son watching a Christmas movie, while he went to retrieve their car, check on the dinner and the hotel. He would not allow anyone to screw this up for his wife.

  He smiled, stepping into the hall. The staff were just now starting to clean up and all the gifts had been handed out, but Frosty glanced to the corner wall to see a little girl huddled there eating, but never taking her eyes off those around her.

  One of his staff, Johnny Nash from receiving, came to stand beside him. “She’s been here about two hours. Got her food and coat, but has not said much. I know when Turtle tried to talk to her, she shrunk back, as if she’s afraid.”

  “Do you think she’s afraid of all men?” he asked.

  “Maybe I can help?” Holly said, coming up next to him, her father beside her with Dylan next to him.

  He twined his fingers with hers, bringing her small hand up to kiss it. “You are always there for me, thank you. You might be the best person to approach her. I don’t like the idea that she’s out there alone, she’s so young.”

  “I agree, and I think this calls for double chocolate ice cream, Dad?” Holly said and turned to her Dad, who was holding two bowls.

  “Well, isn’t that interesting,” her father said, as he felt little arms wrapping around his leg next to him.

  Frosty glanced down and smiled at their son, ruffling his hair before glancing back at the girl to see Holly’s mom sitting beside her, talking.

  “Your mother can get through to anyone and, if I’m not correct, I bet we’re going to have another little girl in the house.” Her father kissed Holly’s cheek and took the ice cream to his wife and the child.

  As soon as Ebenezer got close, the girl in question seemed to shrink back away from him. Frosty knew she’d been hurt physically and emotionally recently. Everything in him wanted to hunt down those that would do this to a child.

  “Momma and Papa know what to do. Believe me, we’ve had many children stay with us that have been hurt. It’s one of the things Papa hates, and he’ll find those responsible,” Holly said. “I thought we could drop off that box tonight. Plus, this little guy wasn’t ready for bed yet. I think it was all those Christmas cookies he ate.”

  Dylan giggled and nodded his head. “Good cookies,” he said and held his arms up for Frosty to hold him.

  “You, my son, have had enough sweets for tonight,” Frosty lifted the little monster into his arms, hugging him, watching as Holly’s mother and father spoke with the little girl.

  Holly reached over and squeezed his arm. “She’ll be fine. Mom will make sure of it. Are you going to be this bad when we have a daughter?” she asked.

  Frosty’s gut twisted. “Anyone hurts our children…” he took a deep breath, refusing to allow himself to go berserk. “Yes, worse.” He finally said. “Come, let’s drop off this box and get this little guy home. I think maybe a little of my famous hot coco tonight.”

  “More sweets? I don’t know.” Holly questioned.

  “Relax my hot coco is the best and it’s sugar free,” he told her before he turned to Johnny. “You all have done an excellent job. As soon as this is all cleaned up, go home to your family. You’ve earned a few paid days off.” Frosty said, and turned to leave, but stopped and turned to meet Johnny’s gaze. “In the office, you will find gifts for everyone that volunteered. Could you make sure they get handed out before anyone leaves? Our thanks for helping. We promise next year it won’t be on such short notice.”

  Johnny shook his head. “You have done so much already. You really didn’t need to get us anything more sir.” Jonny walked with them, towards the parking lot.

  “Yes, we did. Have a great holiday, Johnny, and again, thank you for all that you have done,” Holly said as they stepped outside in the cold air. “I just love winter. I guess living in New Mexico for so long, the cold is a refreshing treat.”

  Frosty snorted. “Only you and your brother would call negative numbers refreshing.”

  For the next hour, Frosty drove around Rochester showing Dylan and Holly the lights before they headed to her friend’s home. What he wasn’t expecting was the run-down shack they were staying in.

  “It’s all her husband could afford, and slowly he was doing the improvements,” Holly informed him. “They had just replaced the heater and hot water tank when he died. The next project was the electric and windows.”

  “You called someone, didn’t you?” Frosty glanced at Holly and she smiled.

  “Of course. The electrician should have been here today along with the company who replaces windows. Her children will be safe and warm this year,” Holly said and smiled. “Of course, Chris will be helping out too, tomorrow night.”

  “I had no doubt, but I’m glad you helped out, but I really think the outside needs some help too. I’ll call and have someone out next week,” Frosty said, parking the car and getting out as a woman with blond hair stepped out onto the porch with
her hands on her hips.

  “Holly Berry, what are you doing now? Don’t think I don’t know it was you who sent those men here earlier today,” she said with tears in her eyes.

  Holly smiled, letting Dylan out of the car. “I have connections. How can I not help? Anita, I’d like you to meet my son Dylan, and Keane, and, of course, Dylan’s dog, Bax.” Holly laughed as Bax sniffed around, but stayed at Dylan’s side.

  Anita came down and greeted Dylan and Frosty could see why Holly liked the woman as he shook her hand. She had a gentle soul. “Let me get this box out of the trunk for you.”

  For an hour, they stayed talking with her and the children. Even his Dylan fell in love with Anita, climbing into her lap and sitting there.

  Frosty stood. “We better be going home. I think our son is finally tired. Anita, we’ll be by next week. I want to take a look at your shop that Holly has told me about.” Frosty leaned down and picked up a sleepy Dylan.

  Holly said her good-byes, giving Anita a hug, before getting into the car. “She so needs to meet her special someone. Did you know she still volunteers at the VA hospital? She never stops.”

  Frosty smiled. “And you don’t?” he asked, earning a smile.

  “Well, I have to admit I’m tired tonight. I think everything has caught up to me.” She said, glancing in the back seat smiling. “I think Dylan is too.”

  Chapter Nineteen

  Holly stood next to Keane, holding his hand, and knowing that his coming face to face with Dancer was not a good way to start off the holidays at her brother’s house. She would personally make sure her dimwit brother got a good kick in the ass for. It had only taken minutes from when Keane had transported them to her brother’s home.

  “I wanted to apologize to you personally, Keane,” Dancer said, nodding to her. “There is no excuse for what we did. But, please, do not allow what we did to affect your friendship with Chris, because believe me, he’s been missing his best friend.”

  “What’s between Chris and I has nothing to do with the mess you and your brother created, but we are working on it.” Frosty glanced down at Holly. “But I guess you and your brothers did me a favor. I wouldn’t have met Holly here, and for that I’m grateful. She’s my world now, and our son.”

  He glanced back at Dancer and smiled. “But I have a feeling you and your brother are suffering worse than I ever did?”

  “More than you know. Fates have a way of getting back at you and they got my brother and me real good. What we did to you, our friend, was wrong. I can promise Donner and I will try and keep her away, but you know how she is.”

  “Let the witch come by,” Holly snapped. “I’ll show her a thing or two.”

  Dylan wrapped his arms around her neck and Frosty gave her a look. “What? She hurt you. She’s lucky I don’t…” Holly stopped, knowing Dylan didn’t need to hear his mom go off. “Well, you know. Now if you will excuse me, I’m going to see my sister and brother before everyone gets here.”

  “They’re in the barn getting ready for tonight,” Dancer said, and she nodded. “You coming?”

  “Right behind you, excuse us Dancer.” Frosty said, wrapping his arm around her and escorting her towards the barn. “I put all our gifts under their tree already and Holly, you will not be confronting my ex, understood?” he said.

  Holly snorted. “We’ll see,” she said and was about to step into the barn when Frosty pulled her back, holding onto her.

  “I mean it, Holly. I won’t have you upset this holiday. She can’t do anything to us, so there is no reason to allow her to upset you,” Frosty said, leaning down and kissing her.

  Dylan giggled and Frosty reached over, patting Dylan on the head. “Papa…”

  He glanced over at Dylan and smiled. “Come her, little guy.” Keane lifted him up into the air and Dylan giggled.

  “Now, that is a sound I like to hear, little boys laughing. How is my little nephew?” her brother Chris came over, leaning in to give her a kiss on the cheek.

  Thank God her brother hadn’t shifted to Santa yet. Dylan laughed again as Keane threw him up in the air. “We’re doing great. Did Mom show up yet?” Keane asked, tucking Dylan in his arms.

  “Yes, she’s inside with Beth. She visited with your father before our grandfather cut the tie. It was hard on her, but I really think she’s going to be good. Oh, and Mom and Dad will be here later. They are getting Niki settled before they bring her here. She’s 12, and the stuff that…” Her brother turned and Holly knew it was bad.

  “Well, she’s got the best family now to stand beside her and keep her safe. We’ll all get her through this and you know father isn’t going to allow whoever hurt her to get away with it. Now, what do you need help with?” Holly asked.

  “Nothing, we’re all good and yes, I’ll make sure Anita’s little ones are taken care of tonight. Go inside. We’ll be in in a few. I’d like to speak with your man.” her brother said, pushing her toward his home.

  “If you upset him, I’m going to make sure Beth knows, and then I’m going to come after you,” Holly glared at her brother. “I mean it, Chris.”

  “When did you get so damn mean?” her brother grumbled.

  Holly glanced over her shoulder at her brother, smiling. “When anyone messes with my family.”

  “Hey, I’m your brother,” Chris grumbled.

  “And I love you, but I will always stand beside my man as every soras should.” Holly said.

  “I’ll be fine. Holly. Go visit and tell Mom I’ll be in in a few minutes,” Keane told her.

  “I’m going, but you two better be on your good behavior or you know Mrs. Claus is going to be furious, along with her sister in law.” Holly reached over and took Dylan from Keane. “Come on little guy, let’s go see your grandma and aunt.”

  It had been three years since the last time she’d been at her brother’s house and she wasn’t disappointed, and neither was Dylan by the squeal he let out seeing the Christmas tree in the middle of the room. “He always was a show off,” Holly muttered and let Dylan down. “Don’t touch the tree, sweetie,” Holly said, moving into the family room.

  Beth was there with her grandparents and what had to be her mom. Holly could see where Keane got his blue eyes from. Holly took a deep breath. She would not start something on Christmas, but if his mother said one wrong thing…

  “Holly,” Keane said, coming up behind her and wrapping his arms around her from behind. “With our joining as soras, it’s like a rebirth for us and we get to start over. Let’s choose to do this with our families?” he asked, kissing the side of her neck.

  She turned and wrapped her arms around him, staring up at him. “You have a way with words, my soras, and you are right. Christmas is about the birth of a new life and I will not damper this holiday with the past. It’s all about here and now.” She looked up and smiled. “You know, we’re standing under mistletoe,” she said.

  Her brother groaned. “I told Beth to throw that thing away. I sure don’t want to see my baby sister kissing anyone,” Chris mumbled, moving around them.

  She laughed as Keane leaned down, covering her mouth with his as he put on one hell of a show, but Holly loved it, knowing that slowly Keane and Chris would once more be good friends. Yes, their first Christmas was a new start for all of them as a family. It was just too bad others—humans, shifters, and aliens alike couldn’t learn from their customs.

  “Merry Christmas, I love you,” he whispered to her.

  “I love you, Keane. Now, let’s start this holiday off right. Let’s give your mom her present now,” Holly said and Keane laughed.

  “No, not till tomorrow, on Christmas when she’ll be starting over too.” Keane slapped her butt and turned her around, pushing her forward. “And I’m not going to be king,” he grumbled and she laughed, knowing this Christmas would be one to remember.

  Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to you all. I hope you stay safe and that your next year is as bright as the stars above.
