“Smelling you,” he answered without thinking.
“W-what?” The word sputtered out like a popped balloon.
He leaned over the side of the bed and crawled toward his surprised and very wide-eyed mate. He nuzzled at her neck, completely prepared for her to pull away or tell him to back off. She did neither.
“You smell divine. Like flowers on the hillside. Fresh and bright and sweet.” He nipped at her earlobe and then backed off as quickly as he’d approached.
She sat there.
Still.
Her heart pounded in her chest. Her breathing was a little more ragged than it’d been a few minutes ago.
Wrath went back to his dresser and grabbed a black t-shirt and a pair of socks. Then sat down on the edge of the bed and finished getting dressed.
Rylee still hadn’t spoken another word.
He glanced over his shoulder and flashed her a grin. “Are you going to change clothes?”
She grabbed one of the pillows from her wall and chunked it at his face. “Not with you watching.” His dragon really liked that she was playing. He let the pillow bounce off his face and then he lunged.
She squealed, but he had her boxed in with his body in mere seconds. He was careful to keep his weight off her body, not sure where exactly her bruises were or if she had other injuries she’d failed to mention. He assumed her ribs had also taken some of the impact too.
“Wrath.”
“I’m not naked, and you threw the pillow.”
“This is not going slow.” She pushed on his chest, but he didn’t budge.
“I told you I don’t do slow. You’re mine. You don’t believe me yet. You will.” He kissed along her bottom lip, nipping enough to make her gasp a little. “Get dressed, I’ll wait at the front door.”
He backed away, hopping off the bed, leaving her aroused and frustrated yet again. The angry huff she tried to muffle behind her hand only pleased him further.
She’d be begging him to be naked again by this evening.

Rylee
Wrath paused at the bedroom door. “I forgot, I have to run down the road and get the truck from where we left it last night. Be back in a few minutes.” He flashed a panty-melting smile and swashbuckled right out of his bedroom.
Rylee sat on the bed where he’d left her. Panting. Horny. Confused.
The cabin door opened and closed, and then he was gone. To get the truck from behind the tree. She remembered the tree from last night. But there was snow everywhere. And how was he going to move a tree by himself?
She climbed off the bed and wandered over to the closed door in the corner. She pulled it open and couldn’t move.
“Holy bathroom Batman.”
The bathroom was like something out of a five-star resort hotel. Silver and white marble covered the floors and up the walls to her waist. A tub big enough to swim in sat in a windowed alcove to her right, then at the back wall was a beautiful floating double vanity. To the left a huge glass shower with dual heads at each end and a waterfall head on the ceiling in the center. There was another glass door to her left where she assumed the toilet was hiding.
She used the toilet and washed up a little at the sink before retrieving some of Naomi’s clothes and changing. They were a little snug, but it was good for now.
Rylee headed back into the bedroom, closing the bathroom door behind her. It wasn’t like he was going to be upset that she’d used the bathroom, but it felt like she was sneaking around a little.
“Did you like it?”
“Shiiiiiit!” Rylee slapped her chest and whirled around. “Make a little noise, would you? You’re huge. You shouldn’t be able to sneak around like that.”
