Giving myself one last fleeting glance over my shoulder, I stalked towards where I heard the water pouring. The heat that licked at my skin from the steam had me practically groaning at the thought of being in it. The back corner of this room had a stone wall wrapping all the way around, save for a small entryway at the back right side.

Outside of it and to my left was a stone bench that held Seth’s clothes neatly folded on them.

Quickly shedding my clothes and depositing them next to his on the bench, I took in deep breaths of the steam, trying to clear my mind for just a bit to relax. As I walked towards the opening for the shower, I thought I’d heard a scuffling of feet, jerking my eyes back down the path we’d come from.

My senses were on high alert, my eyes darting around and focusing my hearing for anything abnormal outside of the water spilling from the shower and Seth’s soft humming.

Had someone followed us in here?

“Are you coming in, Kitten?” Seth questioned, his words echoing in the small space.

Squinting to try to see through the steam, I sighed when I saw no one and shook my head. There wasn’t even a scent of another person in the room with us.

Probably nothing, Kira. You’re just jumpy after being stabbed by an unsuspecting kid.

Making my way into the shower, I greedily drank in the hardened planes of Seth’s sculpted body. He was absolutely stunning with the way his dark hair was slicked back with wetness and the way his eyes traced over every ounce of my flesh on display for him.

The shadows of the room didn’t hide much and I was damn thankful for it. I couldn’t hide the way my eyes went directly to his hardened length between his legs, reminding me of how fucking good it felt inside of me, both ways that I had taken him. I needed that type of fulfillment right now. I needed to escape into the ecstasy only sex with my mates could provide.

Heat pooled between my legs and I felt my slickness gathering between my thighs as I stepped fully into the water falling from the top of the ceiling. I saw his Adam's apple bob in his throat as he swallowed hard, his intense gaze locked on the junction between my thighs as his nostrils flared.

Closing the distance between us, I reached to lay a hand on his chest, ready to get this party started, but he shocked me by grabbing my hand and spinning me to face the other way.

Oh, I could definitely get into skipping foreplay and just being bent over or fucked against the wall.

However, that isn’t what happened at all. Wordlessly, Seth began to take care of me, grabbing a bar of soap that smelled of spearmint and lavender. Foaming it up between his hands, he began to work it into my dirt-ridden skin. His hand brushed my long hair around to my front and then began to rub the soap across my back. I groaned as I felt that it had an exfoliant of sorts in it.

Closing my eyes, I sighed heavily and soaked up the tender treatment. This wasn’t what I had expected, but it was relaxing in a different way, and I wouldn’t pass this up. I’d never get tired of my mates taking care of me. Something I hadn’t experienced much of in life. It was weird to accept from them at first, but now I didn’t blink twice at it, realizing I deserved this type of affection and love.

Everyone did.

The aches and tension began to melt out of me as he dutifully cleaned every damn inch of me and had even taken the time to wash my hair with a matching lavender-scented shampoo and conditioner. The way his fingers had dug into my scalp had me moaning in bliss.

Suddenly his hands disappeared, but as I turned around to see where he’d gone, I felt them on my hips once more. He dragged them languidly up my front, to cup my breasts in his large hands.

Yes. This is what I had been longing for.

I moaned softly as I felt an oil of sorts gliding underneath his touch, as he began to massage my breast. Leaning against him, I enjoyed the feel of his hardness nudging itself against my ass. Tilting my head to the side, he jumped at the chance to bend down slightly and lick down the sensitive skin of my neck.

His tongue traced the outer shell of my ear as his hot breath fanned across it with his words, “You’re so submissive today, Kitten. Complete putty in my hands as I work your gorgeous body however I want.” His words were punctuated with twin pinches to my nipples in a glorious combination of pain and pleasure.

Needing to feel more of him, I turned around and quickly gripped his cock in my hand, done with the slight foreplay. It wasn’t easy to see each other with water pouring down our faces and over our eyes, but we didn’t need it. We had our hands to see for us.

“Don’t think you can get out of telling me what is darkening your soul,” he whispered as one of his hands pinched my nipple again and the other trailed down between my legs, diving between my folds with ease.

His large fingers played me like an instrument he was intimately in tune with, knowing exactly what notes to hit. My breath hitched as his finger found my swollen clit, rubbing it in circles with more pressure than I’d expected. My shaky voice betrayed me, but I tried to cling to my façade, “I…I don’t know what you’re talking about. This is just my body coping with coming back from the brink of death. I don’t think anyone would be glowing after that.”

A deep growl rumbled through his chest, making my eyes widen in shock just as one of his thick fingers moved to my core and pushed into me quickly, making me gasp in pleasure. “Don’t lie to me, Kira.”

Oh, he dropped the nickname. This was serious Seth.

A gasp came from me as he began to stroke me internally, curling his finger at the end in the way that drove me wild. "What do you want me to say?” I queried, wanting to appease him enough to earn this orgasm he was clearly hanging over my head.

He didn’t answer with words, but with his touch. My hand left his cock as I gripped onto his arms tightly, the sudden plundering to my pussy making me lose all semblance of thought. He’d added a second finger when I spoke and began to finger fuck me until I was riding the cusp of an orgasm.

“Fuck, I’m so close,” I moaned as my eyes fluttered close in bliss, all thoughts of my problems sinking away into oblivion.

With a growl he pulled his fingers from me and lifted them to his mouth, inserting them and sucking my juices off. “Delicious,” he purred, a look on his face daring me to challenge him.
