To Lindsey’s great pleasure, the shower was indeed big enough for two. She’d have to thank Sabine later. Dax suggested they move to his room after they got clean, and he didn’t have to do much convincing to get Lindsey to crawl into his bed while he raided the fridge for food.

After an impromptu picnic of grapes, orange juice, and peanut butter sandwiches, Dax had laid down, pulled her against him, and covered them both with the blanket. Lindsey couldn’t imagine a better morning. She curled up with her head on Dax’s shoulder and traced designs across the ridges of his abs.

He stroked her back, from her nape down to the curve of her ass and up again. She didn’t think Dax intended the languid movement to tempt her, but that’s how her body reacted to it. Everything the man did tempted her, but lying next to him naked added a pleasurable new layer.

Lindsey didn’t usually spend time with her sexual partners after the fact, preferring a quick getaway. They’d served their purpose, and she had no more use for them. She’d been accused of being cold, but until Dax, she hadn’t seen the benefit of cuddling. Honestly, she still didn’t see the benefit, but she loved the freedom it offered her to explore his body on her terms.

Dax grunted and pushed the blankets to his waist. “This all feels so decadent, but also juvenile. Like, I never get to spend the day in bed with a sexy woman, but I’m also pretty sure I had that lunch as a kid.”

She’d eaten more than her fair share of peanut butter sandwiches because they were cheap and easy to make. If she’d been thinking, Lindsey would have suggested ordering pizza, but she’d switched off her brain some time ago.

“We still have the option of getting dressed and going god hunting.”

Dax scoffed. “If I ever choose an activity that requires clothes over being naked with you, assume I’ve been replaced by a pod person.”

The implication that there would be more instances of naked time together reminded Lindsey of her previous plans to keep things simple. “We should make some ground rules.”

Dax’s hand stilled for a moment. “If that’s what you need.”

Lindsey propped her chin on her stacked hands. “It’s what we both need. Clear expectations make for healthy partnerships.”

His brow furrowed, but he didn’t correct her definition of their relationship, though she could see he wanted to. “Okay, first rule, no pajamas in bed.”

She pursed her lips. “I’m not sure you get to decide what I wear at night in my own bed.”

He nodded. “Right. I changed my mind. That’s the second rule. The first rule is that we share a bed. Safety in numbers and all that.”

Lindsey tried her best to keep the smile off her face because it would only encourage him. “We’re not making that a rule, but I’ll accept it as a strong suggestion. I was thinking more along the lines of no ties beyond what we have now.
