  He wrapped an arm around her shoulder and dropped a kiss onto Frederick’s head. The baby responded by finally releasing his mama’s hair and trying to tug his papa’s instead. “I was thinking I wanted to get home to my family and no snow storm would stop me.”

  “Well, you always were determined,” she said on a sigh.

  Alexander put Isabel down. “Why don’t you go and find Nanny Mary. I think your brother needs a nap and then we can finish decorating.”

  Fingers in her mouth, Isabel nodded and hurried off to find the nursemaid. Alexander flicked a finger under the baby’s chin before drawing Emma against him once more. “When he is settled, shall we, uh, head out for a walk?”

  “Aren’t you exhausted?”

  He shook his head and sealed his mouth across hers. Emma sank into him and clung to her husband with her free hand. His lips had warmed and she drew in the scent and feel of him.

  “Never too exhausted for you,” he said.

  “Let us have lunch first. Then we can take a walk. Just the two of us.”

  Alexander sighed and slipped a hand down to grab her rear through her skirts. “Always making me wait.”

  She leaned up to press a firm kiss to his lips. “You waited almost a year. I’m sure you can wait a few more hours.”

  “Well, my love, you were worth waiting for.”

  Emma gazed into her husband’s eyes and cupped his jaw. “As were you. Merry Christmas, husband.”

  “Merry Christmas, wife.”

  When he bent to kiss her firmly and Frederick squealed between them, Emma uttered up a prayer of thanks for her husband’s determination to create a proper marriage for them and for her own courage. She looked forward to many more Christmases with her wonderful family and many more Christmas seductions too, she hoped.
