Noël’s First Christmas

By

Dedication

To my readers. May you enjoy the holiday season with childish enthusiasm, and experience the wonder of love in all its facets.

Chapter One

I hate Christmas, Noël White mumbled around the paper takeout bag he held between his teeth. With his satchel wedged under his arm and grabbing the handle of his suitcase in his hand, he tried to open the damn apartment door with his free right hand. Thank God for Bluetooth headsets.

Noël—

Ally, please. I don’t have the nerves to attend your mother’s Christmas party. I was raised by two mathematicians who didn’t believe in anything but numbers and logic. There were no trees, no decorations, no carols, and no presents when I was a child. Christmas is something I’ll never understand.

Don’t you miss it?

Noël snorted as he made his way through his spacious apartment until he reached the kitchen. Damn, he felt like a fucking mule. Miss what? Needles all over my floors, burned food, and absolutely useless crap, someone who knows nothing about me, wrapped in gaudy paper?

Exactly!

Nope.

Ally was his right hand at the advertising company he owned and a good friend. But sometimes she annoyed the hell out of him.

I don’t want you to be alone for Christmas.

Noël rolled his eyes as he placed the takeout on the kitchen table. I won’t be alone.

Oh? Did you meet someone? I hope he’s not as useless as Rory.

Right. Noël was too busy to take care of a lover. Or so Rory had told him rather loudly while he’d thrown objects at Noël. Bitchy queen.
