We arrived back around two-thirty, so I have plenty of time for a hot bath before Reyne shows up for us to get ready. I lock the door to my room after I enter and remove my boots, my feet feeling sticky after putting socks onto wet feet after our swim.

Another note from Reyne, a shaver, and some sort of body cream, are waiting for me when I enter the bathroom.

You haven’t asked, but I figured you might need these for tonight. Reyne x

This Seelie is my guardian angel. The thought had crossed my mind on the ride back with Tavish but I didn’t know where I could find Reyne to ask. I didn’t feel confident enough to ask someone else around the palace yet. I run the taps and pour in more of the jasmine-scented bubble bath Reyne left on my first day, and wait for the tub to fill up.

The Craobh Beatha gets stashed into its usual hiding place since I won’t be wearing it tonight, as my dress doesn’t allow me to hide it.

Trepidation fills me as I think about the ball. So far, I have really only dealt with the king, his slimy assistant, Tavish, Reyne, and her aunt. They have all been welcoming, aside from the king and his shadow, who I feel have tolerated my presence more than anything.

Tonight, I will be in front of the entire Seelie court. Will they immediately know I’m human? I’m hoping for some kind of drama to keep the attention off me.

But Reyne has said she will stay by my side, and I hope I will at least get to speak with Tavish during the evening.

The hot water soothes my aches from the ride, and my workouts with Reyne, and a sigh escapes my lips when I step into it. I dip my head back into the water and close my eyes.

The look on Tavish’s face as he took in my body in the meadow flashes unbidden behind my closed eyelids. Remembering how it slowly raked over me from head to toe, lingering on what he could see through my underwear, my pulse starts to spike as if he’s stood before me. I remember how he held my cheek tenderly and gripped my neck harder when he was about to kiss me. How his skin felt so warm beneath my fingers, and how he visibly reacted when I touched him.

My stomach tightens and my nipples pebble beneath the water. Keeping my eyes closed, I trail my hand down my stomach and between my legs. I remember what he said.

I think you’re incredibly beautiful. And I’m going to find it really fucking difficult to forget what your wet body looks like, or how it felt to have you wrapped around me.

I let out a quiet gasp when my fingers make contact with my clit. I lay my head back on the edge of the bath as I slowly circle my sensitive skin.

His words play over and over again in my head, and I can’t stop thinking about how his body fit so perfectly against mine.
