Chapter 9
Ace
When Lila came in, she looked a little upset. It makes me wonder if maybe her dad doesnât want her to stay here, but heâs not telling me that. While she goes to her room to finish unpacking, I do an online grocery order. Hell, sheâs already taking on a lot here; surely I can get the food delivered. I donât even need to ask her what her favorites are because I notice everything about Lila, and I know what she likes to eat.
When she finally comes back into the living room, I tell her, âThe food will be here in a few hours.â
âGreat. Do you need anything?â
How many times have I thought about having Lila here with me at my house? At least a thousand times, but there was never a scenario where sheâd be here to nurse me. This whole thing makes me feel old and useless. I lean forward with my foot still resting on the pillow. I put it down on the floor with a thud and stand up. âIâm going to get up and shower.â
Lila nods. âHow about a bath so you donât have to stand on one foot?â
I hate to admit it and fuck, I hate baths, but I know sheâs right. âGood idea.â
I wobble down the hall to the bathroom, and when I walk inside, I realize that Lila is behind me. I turn and look at her. âWhat are you doing?â
She walks past me to the linen closet and grabs a towel and washcloth before walking back toward me and putting them on the edge of the tub. âIâm going to help you get in.â
My mouth drops open. I swear I canât do this. I canât have her this close and not claim her, and now sheâs telling me sheâs going to help me get into a bathtub. âNo, youâre not.â
She squats down in front of me, and when I see the top of her head at my waist level, I feel lightheaded. I sit down on the edge of the bathtub while she undoes the Velcro on my boot. She pulls it and my sock off. She examines my foot. My ankle and a little way up my leg is swollen and purple. Her silky smooth hands on my skin cause my dick to twitch in my jeans. She smiles up at me. âLetâs get you clean, and then Iâm going to put some ice on this, and you can elevate it some more.â
She reaches for my shirt and pulls it over my head. Her eyes widen when she looks at my chest. When she reaches for the buttons of my jeans, I grab on to her hand. âI can do it.â
When she doesnât move, I gesture to the door and nod my head. I know I seem like an ass, but a man only has so much willpower, and Iâm about to lose it any second.
Lila stands up with her hands on her hips. âAce Tucker...â
I stand up too and flinch at the tiniest bit of weight I put on my bare foot.
