Thomas put down a large suitcase just inside the door. She had already guessed that Noah had packed for them both. Then Thomas and Aiden both said goodbye at the door before driving off together to stay at a nearby hotel.

"They aren't staying?" Ivy enquired.

​​

"No," Noah answered and directed her towards the inside of the holiday home.

Inside was a large and open plan space. The large space had white soft carpet and a big stone fireplace with a leather sofa in front of it. There was a round king-sized bed in one corner on a platform, so it was closer to the stars. Her cheeks reddened at the pictures that came to her head.

"What are you imagining?" Noah placed her down on the soft carpet as he saw through her naughty thoughts.

"Nothing." Ivy continued to look around, her eyes avoiding the king-sized bed.

Turning around, she noticed a small kitchen located at the far end and a well-equipped toilet nearby. Thankfully, the walls of the washroom were tiled. On the other side, there was a dining table set up with candles and champagne. The whole large space was large and cosy, giving off a somewhat romantic vibe.

Noah wasn't a romantic man, especially with words his actions like tonight always conveyed what he wanted to say.

"Like it?" Noah suddenly appeared beside her again and whispered in her ear, his breath tickling her neck.

She blushed and moved away slightly and as she did he guided her towards the dining table.

"Of course I like it, it's beautiful here. Did you buy this place?" Ivy asked as she took a seat.

Noah had pulled out her chair and once she was seated he sat opposite her. Noah popped open the champagne and poured them both a glass. They had a lavish meal of Steak, grilled asparagus and broccoli with small chipped potatoes.

Ivy sat back after they had finished eating and she looked out at the night sky. The stars twinkled in the sky. To say that the view was magnificent was an understatement it was breathtaking.

Ivy was about to pick up the dinner plates and bring them to the kitchen when Noah's hand stopped her, "What is it?"

He looked up at her, his black onyx eyes looked like little galaxies of their own. She was lost in them for a moment, "Nothing, go get into a bathing suit."

"Bathing suit?"

"Dont ask."

Ivy quickly put the dinner plates away and walked to the large suitcase. She popped it open and found hers and Noah's bathing suits. She handed Noah his robe and he gestured for her to go first.

She went to the bathroom and tied her hair up into a messy bun and then stripped. Her bathing suit was black and matched her pale skin perfectly. It was a two piece the bottoms didn't cover much of her bum and the top was tied by two strings into a halter neck.

She walked out with two white fluffy robes in her hand when she saw Noah. He was already in his swim shorts, they hung loose on his impeccable mermaid line. She nearly drooled at the Histon in front of her. This man was definitely sculpted by the gods. A sexy curl fell down in front of his eyes slightly as he looked up at her.

"Let's go." Noah smiled at her, she was a temptress and he found it hard to hold back.

Ivy took Noah's hand and nodded. A glass panel opened and led them straight into a hot pool. Ivy couldn't believe that although they were surrounded by snow she was so warm. It was so quiet just the sound of the water surrounding them.

Noah brought her to the middle of the pool and the water lapped around their dancing bodies. Ivy hung her arms around Noah's neck and kissed his lips. It was meant to be a sweet thank you kiss but it quickly turned into a passionate lust driven kiss.

She panted and parted their lips. She then rested her forehead against his muscular chest. He spun them around in the water, the water making ripples like he was doing in her heart.

"You seem to like it here?" Noah asked.

"Anywhere with you is nice." Her words left her before she realised it. She sounded so flirty. It must be the champagne she thought.

She heard him chuckle, it was like magic to her ears.

"Why did you bring me here? I know your busy." She asked as she looked into his eyes again, they reflected the stars in the dark night's sky that surrounded them.

"To relax after a trying week." Noah quickly responded.

They swam around for a little longer and then Noah lifted her up and princess carried her out of the water and back through the glass panel door. The gesture was both gentle and uncharacteristic for Noah.

She felt a chill around her shoulders but only for a second as Noah then wrapped her in the fluffy white robe before putting his own on. He then pulled out her hair tie so her hair hung around her shoulders in waves.

Noah then closed the panel and hit a button on the side.

She looked at him quizzically, "What's that do?"

"It's one way glass, although there is no one around for miles we can't be too careful," Noah responded.

Ivy just nodded, she went to the fire and sat on the sofa just in front of it. Noah joined her and put her legs across his. The fire was warm and made them both cosy. The flames danced, it was mesmerizing to watch.

It was so relaxing she leaned her head back, but Noah then lifted her so she sat across his knee.

"Ivy." The low baritone voice made Ivys heart leap.

She looked up and stared at her lover, he brought their lips close together as he stared into her emerald eyes.
