“I sincerely doubt you’ll ever have a dad bod, Rush,” I tease. “Meanwhile, if Gagey is any indicator, my hips will expand with every child I carry and it won’t leave.”
“Just more cushion for the pushing,” he fires back as he scoops me up, with both of us completely naked, and heads into the en suite.
He sets me on my feet and opens the door to the shower stall that looks like the Cadillac of all bathrooms from what I can see so far. There’s a separate soaking tub that’s massive and I spot the jets in the sides, barely holding back a moan thinking of all the baths in my future. A built-in set of shelves hold the towels and other linens, while a small door off to the side is apparently the toilet.
But the shower… I have no words. I don’t know what to think of it when I see the multiple shower heads all going. Deep ledges hold various bottles, and I suspect it’s whatever body wash he uses that smells positively divine. All male and yummy.
I’m caught off guard when he takes my hand and leads me into what I’ll forevermore call the rain forest, because the water falls down and surrounds us. “These knobs here will adjust the temperature,” he says as he points them out. “You can also change the water pressure.”
“This is perfect,” I reply, leaning my head back to get my hair wet. I wasn’t planning on washing it today, but fuck it, this decadence needs to be fully enjoyed as far as I’m concerned.
“We’ll put your shit in here tomorrow, and if you need anything else, you’ll let me know so I can get it picked up for you,” he decrees as he grabs a weird looking net thing and puts body wash on it.
“What is that?” I ask, turning around so my back’s facing him when he twirls his finger.
“It’s this crazy ass thing that Issy swore everyone needed to try. She says it’s better than a loofah or some shit,” he says. I nearly moan as his hands stroke across my back and arms. It’s slightly scratchy but doesn’t hurt so I entrust myself to him and just allow myself to feel.
CHAPTER
TWENTY-FIVE
Riptide
As I wash her voluptuous body, I have to remind myself that I’m a grown ass man who’s been in control of his dick for a long time. Seeing her creamy skin, with fucking curves for days has my hands itching to rush through our shower so I can get her in my bed. But I know she’s nervous based on what she said, so I decide to take my time to ensure every nook and cranny is squeaky clean, before I shampoo and condition her hair.
Little does she know that thanks to Constance and Maria, two of the women in the West Texas chapter, I can braid hair, so I’ll be doing that for her once we’re done. “Go ahead and rinse while I wash up really quick,” I tell her.
“Okay.” Her voice is soft, but she doesn’t sound quite as nervous as she initially did, so the water worked its magic as far as I’m concerned. Shutting off the water, I reach out and grab one of the bath sheets from the warming bar and wrap it around her before getting one for myself. “Oh, I’m going to be spoiled if you keep this up,” she murmurs, grinning at me.
“Good thing I plan to spoil you and Gage then,” I reply. Grabbing a hair tie and my wide tooth comb, I scoop her up in my arms, causing her to squeal and making me laugh, before I stalk toward the bed.
“I don’t think I’ve ever seen a bed this big before,” she muses as I deposit her on what’s going to be ‘her’ side. I climb in next to her then pull her between my legs so I can comb out her hair. “Did I ever mention I like having my hair brushed?”
“You didn’t, but that’s good to know,” I murmur, kissing the skin of her neck right below her ear. “Figured you’d want it contained since it’s wet.”
She starts giggling as she nods. “Yeah, otherwise, you’ll wake up next to Medusa in the morning. I either braid it or wear a bonnet to keep it somewhat contained while I’m sleeping.”
I’ve seen bonnets before and the thought of seeing Van in one has me bursting into laughter. “Think we’re good with braids tonight, Van.”
“Me, too.” It doesn’t take long for me to work the tangles out then braid her hair. Setting the comb on the nightstand once I’ve tied off the end, I take the towel and finish drying her off, dropping kisses on her silky skin as I go. Once I’m sure we’re both dry, I turn her in my arms and kiss her, making sure that everything I’m feeling goes into it.
“Fuck, you’re everything I’ve always wanted but never thought I’d have,” I admit once I pull back so we can both catch our breath.
She’s been steadily running her hands up and down my arms but at my words, she clutches my biceps and opens her eyes to gaze into mine. “Really?”
Part of me briefly wonders if Gage didn’t show her how much she meant, but I shove that thought deep into the recesses of my mind. His loss is definitely going to be my gain and if it takes me until my last breath for her to realize she’s perfect the way she is, so be it.
“Yeah, really, sweetheart. This lifestyle ain’t for the faint of heart, and it takes a special kind of woman. In case you missed it, outside of Indiana, none of the other brothers have an old lady.”
“But I thought that Icer–” she starts to say until I place my finger against her lips.
“Icer’s history isn’t mine to share, Van, but suffice it to say, he’s torn right now because he’s caught feelings for Letti. Because of his past, he’s not sure what to do about it. Now, enough about Icer, babe. It’s our time.”
“Works for me,” she says, grinning at me. “Now, show me what I’ve been missing, Rush. Please?”
“With pleasure,” I murmur, maneuvering us so we’re lying on our sides, touching from chest to toes. Well, more like her toes to my shin; she’s quite a bit shorter than me. Still, the important bits are pressed against each other, which I’m definitely enjoying.
Leaning down, I capture one of the peaked nipples in my mouth, laving it with my tongue and lips as she slowly presses her core against my dick. I can feel the heat coming from her pussy and know that she’s going to ruin me for anyone else for the rest of my life.
