Ten Line Tuesday ~ Love of My Life

Ten lines from my upcoming release in the Smut in the City Anthology, Love of My Life...

“You, so you say.” She notched her chin in the air. “You came back to this city and all the things you said hemmed you in for me. You don’t like traffic, hate seeing all the buildings cluttering the skyline and yet you’re back in town.”

“You don’t believe me?” His voice rumbled down her spine. “Come here.”

“No.” She sidestepped him and allowed herself to breathe. She kept her back to him. If she didn’t see him, she couldn’t fall for him. “I can’t.”

“Claustrophobia?”

“Yes.” He’d remembered. She studied her reflection in the polished metal. “Gets me every time.”

“Let me take your mind off your problem.”

And yes, I did get the title from listening to that Queen song one too many times. Too emotional. Especially when Brian May sings it after Freddie passed. RIP Freddie.
