It took a little time for Caitlyn to wrap Victoriaâs ankle as the other woman wallowed in the tub. Caitlyn kept her eyes averted from Victoriaâs free flesh. Everything the foundation garments Victoria wore to disguise her body was on display. She certainly had no problem with her body image.
Caitlyn had nothing against big people, but Victoria was another thing entirely.
She certainly seemed to be enjoying Caitlynâs discomfort.
âYou should lie down and rest,â Caitlyn suggested as she finished.
âI need help,â Victoria wheedled, but Caitlyn saw the glint in her eyes, the âmean girlâ shine.
âYour room isnât that far away, and that ankle is taped up pretty well. You should be fine,â Caitlyn said. âJust stay off it as much as you can until morning.â
âCold bitch,â Victoria snapped.
It was useless to point out to Victoria that she hadnât had to go out after her, the other woman knew that. She just considered it part of Caitlynâs job. Which in a way it was.
Caitlyn sighed. âHave a good evening,â she said, turning her back on the other woman.
She walked toward the other bathroom to wash up herself.
Mark and Nathan were just leaving. Both wore only towels, their feet and torsos bare. The scent of the body washes Jason provided wafted out behind them on the damp air of the shower.
Taken by surprise, a flush of heat raced through Caitlynâs body as she tried not to stare.
Both men clearly kept themselves in good shape. Nathan was leaner than Mark, but not by much. The muscles in their arms were firm, the biceps defined. It was easy to picture them doing curls to keep that definition. Both men had firm, strong muscles in their chests and abs. It was difficult for her to take her eyes off them.
âOh, thatâs just cruel,â she breathed. The words just escaped her. It had been a long time since sheâd seen â much less touched â a healthy male body.
The sight of Markâs strong arms, his muscled chest, raised a longing in Caitlyn sheâd thought lone gone. For that one brief moment, she wanted to walk to him and lean her forehead against that strength, to take refuge thereâ¦but she couldnât. She didnât even know if he was attracted to her in the same way, and even if he was it wouldnât be fair or right. Even so, she couldnât help wanting it, she ached for it. Until then she hadnât acknowledged her loneliness.
Ducking her head, Caitlyn tried very hard not to let either man see her blush, although her ears burned. She was grateful her hair hid them from view, along with her flaming face. It wasnât just her face that went warm, either, as a rush of heat ran from her head to her toes as she tried to tear her eyes away from the two men.
It was quickly evident that theyâd both heard the open admiration in her voice.
They grinned.
Nathan flexed the muscles in his chest and, despite her embarrassment, she laughed.
Mark couldnât help but be flattered by the attention.
