Chapter 15

Luc hung exhausted from the showerhead, the water dripping down his body like sweat. But it was water, washing him clean again. That wild, wild creature he carried inside him eased now, at peace and a little smug, while his brain tried to recoup its power over his body. Over his heart. Oh, she was so going to pay.

That wild, satisfied part of him wanted nothing so much as to go to sleep, with her trapped under his arm, but his brain had long experience of driving him past any level of fatigue.

He turned, pain lancing through his hands as he finally loosed his grip on the showerhead. “Happy?” he challenged, intentions twining through his voice, so wicked he could taste them.

Her face startled him. Because she did look happy. Not even smug herself, just luminous with delight and relief, hair dampened to dark gold that smeared across her face, blue eyes sparkling and soft all at once. “Yes,” she whispered, lifting her arms to curl her hands over his shoulders, snuggling her wet body into his.

He lifted her up in his arms, grabbing a fistful of towels off the rack as he carried her out of the bathroom. “How do you feel?”

She shrugged, moving one hand as if it searched for words. “Delicious,” she finally decided, her eyes brimming with a hint of mischief but mostly just that happiness. It was an extraordinary thing to try to digest, that she could look so happy because she had made him come.

Was it at all possible he should—loosen up a bit? Relax his need for control? Trust her with him?

Shit, didn’t he already do that? Was that, too, still a work in progress?

He liked making her come, too, but he wasn’t sure he would quite define what he felt in those moments as happiness. It was fiercer and harder and more possessive. More animal, more hungry.

Well, we’ll just have to work on your hunger levels, won’t we, soleil? He didn’t like being the only animal in the room.

He tossed towels onto the bed and set her onto them, pulling and tugging ostensibly to get them smoothed out under her—and then wrapping them suddenly around her body, a snug double-wrap that trapped her arms, the ends tucked under her body. She could wriggle free, but it would take her a while.

“Luc.” She protested, but she was laughing.

Laughing. As much as he liked her laughter, there were moments when a man would far rather make a woman scream.

“Let me know if you need anything,” he murmured, pushing her legs apart. Like, if she got suddenly sick again, it would be good if he didn’t miss that signal this time around.

“Luc.” It was a pretend protest. He knew those, very well. Her eyes had widened, and her sex—oh, yes, he could see how hot and wet she was for him. So she really had enjoyed that game. In more ways than one.

He slid his hand against her, enjoying how easily and deeply he could rub, how the lips of her sex were already parted and lush for him.
