I pulled open the door, and Nate stepped back, giving me space as I climbed inside. Nate couldn’t help but smirk as his eyes followed the trickle of hot water running down the front of my body. His gaze traveled slowly, like he didn’t want to miss a single inch, and when his eyes met mine again, they were darker.
Hotter.
Possessive in a way that made my next breath a little shaky.
“I should tell you to go back to bed,” he murmured, but his hands were already on me, sliding up my waist like he couldn’t help himself.
“You’re not going to,” I whispered back, reaching for the bottle of body wash on the shelf and flicking the lid open.
“No,” he admitted, lowering his mouth to my cheek, his lips brushing along my jaw. “I’m not.”
I tipped some body wash into my hand and put the bottle back before rubbing my hands together, lathering the soap. Witha little force, I pushed him back against the wall, pinning him there with a powerful smile as I ran my hands over his shoulders and down his chest in very slow, very deliberate strokes.
The tattoos that decorated his chest and pecs were colorful and intricate, and I couldn’t help but trace them with my fingers, studying each picture, word, and line.
The bright colors were a strong contrast to the Nate that he portrayed to the world.
A permanent scowl.
With no time for people who weren’t important to him.
“What inspired these?” I asked, trailing one line with my fingernail.
“You did,” he said simply, like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
My hand froze, my heart with it. “Me?”
His hands found my hips, resting there as he lay his head back against the wall, his eyes closed. “You were the color in my world when everything was dark and fucking gray. So every time I started to feel those shadows creeping back in, I’d find myself in some shitty tattoo shop, trying to remind myself of all the things I have that are bright and motivate me to keep going.”
It was like a mosaic of images.
Skulls, stars, dragons, and a rose that covered his throat. Each time I ran my eyes over his chest and arms, I saw something new I hadn’t seen before. They had me completely entranced as I once again began to wash my hands over his skin with a smile on my face.
He was so relaxed, his breathing slow and even, but I couldn’t help moving lower and lower.
“You keep going and I’m going to forget how tired I am,” he growled, his eyes still closed.
The water washed the soap off his skin as quickly as I could apply it, and it didn’t take long before it was gone, and I was lefttracing the outline of his muscles. They sank lower, below his hips, and I couldn’t help myself.
I curled my hand around his cock, and he growled deep in his throat, but he didn’t move. It was already a little hard, but as I began to tug at it gently, it quickly grew in my hand.
Nate’s fingers dug into my hips, and when I looked up again, his eyes were on me, his lids heavy with desire.
Holding his burning stare, I slowly began to sink to my knees.
“Darcy…” he rasped, just as I licked the tip of his cock and pulled the head into my mouth. “Fucking hell.”
Water was splashing over both of us, wetting my hair and face. Nate pushed the wet strands away and used his thumbs to wipe the droplets from my eyes just as I took his length deep into my mouth.
He let out a deep, gravelly moan, leaning back into the wall and pushing his hips forward. His head hit the back of my throat, and I gagged a little before pulling back and once again, wrapping my hand around him, squeezing and pulling in long strokes.
I lifted it, ducking my head under and taking his balls into my mouth, playing with them using my tongue before sucking hard and letting them pop out again before instantly returning to his cock.
I sucked at the end before bobbing my head up and down, taking as much of him into my mouth as I could. He grabbed a fistful of my hair, holding my head still and forcing me to look up at him, his dick bouncing around my face.
“You like sucking me off?” he questioned, his voice low and stern.
I licked my lips, water trickling down my face and body.
