I dip the sponge in the tub and lift it to her head, squeezing the water so it runs down her hair and back. She’s not shy in front of me. Her body is exposed to my eyes if I so wished to study it. And I do. Unapologetically. Her skin is delicate, like porcelain. It’s no wonder Benjamin is so taken with her. She really is like a living doll. Impossibly long, dark lashes flutter like bat wings over her oval orbs. She’s mesmerizing.

“I can treat your wounds, but once we have Benjamin safely back with us, I suggest we see a surgeon about those gashes,” I offer, dropping the sponge and applying shampoo to her hair. My fingers knead her scalp, and she sighs into my touch.

“Thank you for finding me.”

“It was Benjamin who gave himself up for that to be possible.”

Her body tenses and the flickering in her eyes is far from innocent. She’s slightly unhinged. Furious. Crazed. I marvel at how much she looks like her brother in this one moment. He, too, once gazed up at me from this bathtub, injured and in need of me.

Beautiful.

“I will kill her for this,” she mutters, dark and determined.

It sends a thrill through my body and my skin begins to hum.

Her nostrils flare as she seems to lose herself to her thoughts. A familiar mania—one I’ve seen not only in Benjamin’s eyes but my own—dances in hers. “I’ll make her bleed and scream and beg. I’ll make her wish her eyes never fell upon him or me.” Her head tilts up so she can look directly at me again. Her teeth digging into her bottom lip before she says, “You can watch.”

My stomach stirs, and I feel a change shifting inside me. I thought she would cause jealousy, wake up the demon within me, having it crave to eradicate her and feed on her until she was nothing. Because Benjamin only needs me. However, she has his same beauty inside her. The darkness—growing and flourishing inside her. Multiplying exponentially with each passing breath.

I want to harness it and sculpt it, just as I did him.

I want another monster.

I want her.

Fighting the smile that tugs at my lips, I stroke her cheek with my thumb and run it across her plump lip. She leans in to my affectionate touch. “I took the liberty of having someone pick up some clothes of yours,” I tell her softly. I rinse her hair clean and offer her a towel. She stands and lets the water cascade down her body as though she’s a water feature—one of a goddess—in a fountain. Aside from the damage on her chest, she’s flawless. Her skin is smooth and creamy, her deep brown hair long and dark enough to make her eyes pop.

Stepping into the towel, she wraps it around her body and once again places her hand on my chest over my heart. “Thank you.”

The organ beats within its confines at her touch and I wonder if she’ll notice that she’s made me hard with a simple touch.
