I stood with my eyes closed under the jet of scalding water, inhaling the steam that rose around me. I pushed my wet hair back from my face before letting my hands drop to my sides again.
My fists clenched as another wave of regret swept through me.
Iâve screwed everything up. Iâve driven her away, forever.
Lust still churned inside me, and my shifter thrashed ceaselessly, furious at being ignored. But it was muted due to the pain. Iâd mate my mate run away, and I couldnât forgive myself for that.
I let out a deep sigh. She would want to leave now; I was sure of it. And it was no oneâs fault but my own.
I was in the middle of working out how I would explain myself to Cass and Damon when the door to the room outside opened and closed softly, and light footsteps followed.
They paused outside the bathroom door. Whoever was out there was listening to the shower, hesitating.
I imagined one of the servants there on the threshold, one hand on the doorknob.
I opened my mouth to tell them to leave. Whatever royal business it was could wait; I needed to clear my head and make preparations to take Sarah home.
The thought pierced like a knife through my heart.
If she wonât stay with me, the least I can do is make sure she gets back to her family safely.
Before I could say anything, the door opened, and the person stepped into the bathroom. I turned to watch their progress as they crossed the room. The shower cubicle was large, but the glass was too fogged up to see. I caught a blur of movement as they came closer.
My heartrate picked up. I recognized that small frame, the blonde hair.
Sarah stepped out of her garments, one after the other, leaving them on the floor where they lay. By the time she reached the glass door behind me, I was hard and wanting.
The door opened.
Sarah stood naked before me. My gaze raked over every inch of her creamy skin, devouring the vision she made. Her pert breasts, her rosebud nipples, the graceful curve of her hipbones... all of it set me on fire.
I didnât know where I wanted to put my mouth first, but I stopped myself from moving, staying rooted to the spot as she joined me under the hot spray of water.
She looked up at me with wide eyes. She stood a hairâs breadth away, close enough that I could feel the heat from her skin. Small droplets ran down from her hair, racing over her chest and stomach.
Still, I waited. The last thing I wanted to do was scare her away again.
âTouch me,â she whispered.
Those two words was all it took. With a groan, I took her face in my hands and kissed her, bringing her up on tiptoe and pressing her against my body. She was so soft, so willing.
I didnât know what had changed between now and earlier, but it wasnât the moment to stop and ask.
