Chapter Fifteen

Mary Anne

Hunter closed and locked the door. “Where were we?”

“I was about to take a shower. I really don’t care whether you join me or not.” I pulled off my sweater and headed toward the bathroom. I’d never bothered with my bra, and it was still in my jacket pocket. I knew removing my cami meant going topless, but I found I didn’t care. I didn’t care about anything. Still, I waited until I’d turned on the water in the huge shower, complete with four different shower heads, before pulling it off.

“Mary Anne?” Hunter called my name from behind me.

I slipped off my jeans, socks, and underwear without turning around. I was over caring. I was over fighting. I was on the losing side of a battle, and pretending I had a chance of winning was pointless.

I knew he was watching and waiting. “I’m getting in. Like I said, I don’t care if you join me.” I stepped in and walked right under the stream of one of the higher shower heads.

It was one of those open showers without a door, so I knew he could still see me. I didn’t care. I couldn’t care anymore.

“Mary Anne? Are you all right?”

I kept my eyes closed as the water poured over me. “I’m fine.”

“You are so beautiful.” He whispered the words. “So unbelievably beautiful.”

I tried to ignore it. I tried to ignore that he was watching me. Maybe if I could just numb myself enough the pain and confusion would eventually fade away.

I stepped outside of the spray and opened my eyes, not surprised to find him standing inches away from me in the shower. His eyes were devouring my body, so I allowed my eyes to move over his muscular form. Hunter was hung. Hung like no man I’d ever seen before. And that both terrified and excited me. I didn’t want to feel excited, but I did. Despite everything, I was attracted to the man. I wanted to believe he was causing me to feel that way, but maybe he wasn’t. I’m sure most women would have been attracted to Hunter.

He took a step toward me, and my body froze. Was this it? Had I given him the green light?

He took my face in his hands and gently kissed me. I’d expected him to be demanding, but instead he was sweet. “Thank you, for this.”

“You’re thanking me for taking a shower with you?”

“For letting me finally see my mate.” He released my face and let his hands move down my arms, and then the sides of my body. He kept his hands moving until they settled on my hips. “For letting me see how much I get to enjoy.”

He left tiny kisses all along my neck and down to my shoulder. “There are so many things I want to do with you. So many things I want to experience.”

I said nothing. Instead I closed my eyes. I was overwhelmed with such a mix of emotions I could barely breathe.
