When I finally make it back to the house, it’s mostly quiet. I walk towards the stairs, wanting nothing more than to sink into a hot bath. My entire body is throbbing with pain, and I groan inwardly when I get halfway up, hobbling the whole time, and see Dean coming down the stairs towards me.

Goddamn it. I was already sore from working out, and then the fight, and now I have to deal with him on top of it?

I grit my teeth, looking up at him and wondering what sort of bullshit I’m going to have to put up with now before I can get my bath and clean up from the fight.

But instead of annoyance or arrogance in Dean’s face when I look up at him as he catches sight of me, all I see is astonishment and something very much like horror in his eyes.

“Christ, Athena,” he breathes as he catches sight of my face. “What the fuck happened to you?” His face hardens suddenly, his jaw clenching. “Did Jaxon do that to you while you were training? If he did, I swear to god—"

I touch the edge of my cheek gingerly, wincing. “Well, I got into a fight. But no, it wasn’t Jaxon. He’d never.”

Dean’s jaw works anxiously as he takes another step down, his fingers sliding under the unharmed part of my chin as he turns my wounded face into the light. “Fuck,” he murmurs. “Well, let’s go upstairs and get you into the bath. And then you can tell me what happened.”

I shouldn’t feel shy about getting into the clawfoot tub in my bathroom in front of Dean—after all, he’s seen me naked now more times than I have fingers to count on, but somehow this seems more intimate than the punishments I’ve endured or the rough sex we have in his bed at night. This is him helping me with my shirt when it hurts too much to lift my arms over my head, him heating the bathwater as I wriggle out of my yoga pants, him hovering nearby to make sure I don’t slip as I lower myself into the steaming water, groaning with mingled pain and pleasure as I sink into it.

“I’ll get something to help clean up those scratches on your face,” Dean says, walking towards the medicine cabinet over the sink. “Who did you get into a fight with?”

I hesitate, unsure if I should tell him the truth about what’s been going on. I told Cayde, and he’d seemed concerned, but I don’t know how Dean will react. “Just some jealous girl,” I say finally, shrugging as I lean back in the tub. “She was waiting for me when I came out of the gym.” It’s not a lie, really—I don’t know what the dark-haired girl’s motivations are for sending me that letter, if that really was her, or for stalking me.

“This is pretty rough for someone who’s just jealous.” Dean frowns, turning my face towards him. “Are you sure there’s nothing else to it?” He pauses, ripping open an alcohol pad.
