Chapter Seventeen

Farrah

It wasn’t until I stepped out of the shower and started drying off that I realized all of my clothes were in the washer and I was completely naked. My only option would be to walk out with a towel wrapped around me.

“Oh well. Oh hell,” I whispered to myself as I dried off.

I ran my fingers through my hair after rubbing it with a towel to get it sort of dry. I studied myself in the mirror. I was flushed all over from the hot water. I glanced over at the washer, my eyes landing on the digital screen to see that even though I had selected the quick wash option, twenty whole minutes were still left.

I wrapped the fluffy towel around me, securing it tightly above my breasts, and gathered my dignity. When I looked down at my feet just before I opened the door, I laughed to myself. My toenails were painted bright purple, a fun color.

Whatever. It didn’t matter what Cooper thought of my toenails. Surely, he would understand that I wouldn’t be walking out in a towel unless I waited in the bathroom until my clothes were dry, which would probably be an hour or so.

When I stepped out, he was seated on one of the kitchen stools, looking at something on his phone. I cleared my throat as I crossed the room with one hand curled over the top of the towel where the fabric was tucked in.

“I need to get some clothes,” I announced.

Cooper set his phone down, his eyes whipping over to mine. I was already flush from the shower, but heat blazed through me the second our gazes collided. I stopped a few feet away from him and cleared my throat again, shifting on my feet. He simply stared at me, his mouth parting slightly before he closed it quickly.

He thumbed toward the door. “I can—” His hand dropped, and his eyes narrowed. It felt as if the air around us shimmered to life, almost electric. “Come here,” he said, his voice low.

I couldn’t have stopped myself from responding to his command if I wanted to. The floor was cool under my feet, while the rest of my body was on fire. I took one step, and then another, and another until I stood right in front of him.

He reached for me, one hand coming to rest on my hip. His palm slid from there around my waist to rest just at the base of my spine, where his fingers splayed over the upper curve of my bottom. He coaxed me closer to him with the subtlest of pressure.

I stood between his knees, feeling my heartbeat pounding hard and fast. My breath was short, and I swallowed. His eyes were dark.

“I want you,” he rasped.

I tore my eyes from his, looking down. My gaze landed on his muscled thigh, shifting upward to see the hard ridge of his cock visible through his jeans. That sent a rush of arousal through me.
