Chapter Seven

“I could manage a shower,” Luke said in a husky voice.

“We’d better be quiet or we’ll wake my aunt and your father.”

Luke clasped her hand and tugged her against his side as he led her down the passage to the bathroom. His palm was callused from working with his hands. The contrasting texture sent a shudder through her just as it did when he touched her breasts or smoothed his hands down her flanks.

Janaya thought briefly about her aunt’s assertions—that the more sex they had, the closer they cemented. She thrust the thought away. The idea hadn’t improved much since her aunt first broached the subject. She and Luke had talked about it. They had both agreed this was a short-term thing that would last until she left.

No regrets. No recriminations.

Hand in hand, they turned into the bathroom together. Luke switched on the light, shut the door after them, and bolted it. Good idea. She didn’t want Hinekiri to walk in on them. So easy to picture that happening and embarrassing, even if her aunt did approve. And she didn’t like the idea of any other female seeing Luke’s naked body. She stroked his broad chest, pinching one of his flat disc-like nipples as her hand cruised past. Her property, she thought with a trace of possessiveness she did her best to ignore.

“Do you remember how to turn the shower on?” Luke teased as he nibbled down her neck, lightly scraping the tender skin below her ear.

Janaya eased away, ready to take the challenge. “Of course, I remember,” she said loftily and she reached into the shower and twisted the tap. Instantly, cold water hit her mid-chest. She let out a surprised yelp while Luke had the audacity to laugh.

After tugging her out of danger, Luke crowded her against the white vanity unit. He lifted her up without warning and sat her on top, her back to the mirror.

“That’s cold.” Janaya tried to wriggle off the icy surface.

“But not as cold as the water, I bet.” Luke stayed her with a kiss, his hands massaging her nipples to peaks. He bent over and licked the droplets of water off her skin. “It comes from a spring and takes a while to run hot.”

Steam started to billow from the shower, creating a warm private haven. The mirror misted over and cold became a faint, discomforting memory.

Luke drew one nipple in his mouth. He pulled on it hard and the corresponding tug of sensation rocketed straight to her core. Janaya hummed her appreciation. She really liked it when he did that. Santana hadn’t enjoyed touching her anywhere except the joining place, and from what she’d heard, the rest of the Dalcon males went about business in the same way as Santana. Certainly gave a Dalcon female fodder for thought. She wondered if that was why Hinekiri had never mated and spent long months away from home. Somewhere, there was a business opportunity here for—

Luke let her nipple pop from his mouth and Janaya groaned in disappointment.
