Her hand hovered a full minute above the door before she knocked, but Jack didn’t answer. She swallowed and tried the knob. It was unlocked. She let herself in and stood outside his open bathroom door. Through the steam, his long, lean figure was discernable as he washed himself under the hot spray. Should she go any farther? After all, he could reject her, tell her to get out of his room and never come back.
He might misinterpret her coming to him and think she was trading her body for another night under his roof. Thinking that made her pause. Was she? No, her moral code was higher than that, and if that was the case, she would have had sex with him earlier.
Still not very confident, she stripped off her nightgown and tossed it over the back of a chair. After easing her feet from her slippers, she stepped into the bathroom. Heart thundering, she reached to the plain shower curtain and pulled it back. Jack froze with his hand over a sudsy chest.

She took it, about to wash her body, but he stopped her. “Wash me.”
Her gaze flew to his. The desire she found there made her bolder. She began at his chest with light movements. A chill raced over her flesh, this time having nothing to do with the temperature. Her desire ignited. Jarrika washed Jack from head to toe, avoiding his private areas.
