Jade listened to Dragon telling Valerian that he would see him in twenty minutes. She teased him by brushing his thigh with her fingers, inching closer to his nest of blond curls.

His hand clamped on hers before she could reach his manhood. “Stop it,” he whispered with a naughty smile as he wrapped up his conversation with his lieutenant. “We need to shower and get presentable,” he said, taking her wrists and pinning them above her head. “We’ll finish this conversation later.” He kissed her hard before taking her in his arms.

Cocooned in his embrace, she leaned her head against his shoulder and let him take the lead. “What’s your secret?” she asked, smiling against his skin.

“Secret?” His large hand roamed over her back, warming her but also awakening her senses anew.

“You’ve found a way to tame a ferocious Master Assassin.” She trailed feather-light kisses all over his throat and finished by nibbling his earlobe.

“That secret,” he chuckled and shivered at the same time. “Not sure, but if you don’t stop what you’re doing, I’ll never talk to Valerian, and it didn’t sound like the kind of conversation that could be delayed. He gave us a few hours for ourselves, but now, I need to confront reality once again.”

Dragon’s suddenly serious tone dampened her playfulness. “What did he say?” she asked.

“It seems that his investigation has already yielded results.” He kissed her crown and entered the bathroom. With his free hand, he opened the shower stall and placed both of them under the large glass umbrella with working gears hanging from the ceiling.

“A steam bath. What a luxury.” She appreciatively eyed the transparent, clockwork apparatus that produced a warm cloud, bathing them in scented vapor. “Not something I ever experienced as an assassin. Traveling with the High Lord has its advantages after all.”

“Indeed.” He planted a kiss on her nose. “Wait until you bathe in our chambers at Sol Manor,” he said matter-of-factly. “As soon as we’re back home, I’ll block out an entire week for ourselves just to show you the baths.”

Jade was taken aback by his statement, not because of what he said, but because of her reaction to his words. Dragon always used “we” and “us” when he talked, but it was the first time that it had sounded perfectly normal to her ears.

“I’ll introduce you to the many pleasures we can have in the water—” His whisper reached deep inside her, spurring her imagination toward new frontiers.

Playing with his hair, she stood on her toes to brush his lips. “You’re expanding my horizons.”

“My absolute pleasure.” He took her mouth for a punishing kiss.

Soon they were drenched, water drops gliding along their united bodies. Dragon finally released her to the floor, but only to lather his hands with a cleansing foam he thoroughly applied to every inch of her. The scent of red lavender filled the stall, saturating the space, relaxing her. He rocked her as if they were dancing, his touch soothing, and his words sweet promises.
