“I’d already deliberate on a bathe,” he says with a smile. “After which I’m going to provide you a therapeutic massage. I don’t need your leg cramping up once more after right this moment’s hike.”

“Oh, that sounds very nice.”

He narrows his eyes just a bit. “I don’t assume you’ll describe it as good once we’re completed. Come on, get in.”

The water is heat and feels nice, washing away all of the grime from being outdoors all day. We don’t discover any ticks on one another, however we do a fantastic job of checking for them, and as soon as we’re clear, rinsed, and completed, Chase shuts off the water and leads me out of the bathe.

He takes his time with an enormous, fluffy blue towel, paying shut consideration to verify I’m dry, and once I’m about to stroll to the bed room, he stops me.

“The place are you going?”

“To the bed room?”

“Nope. You’re not dry.”

“My hair can air dry.”

However he lifts that forehead once more, and I really feel a little bit thrill zip up my backbone.

“Okay, what’s subsequent?”

He’s principally dry now, and nonetheless absolutely bare and half-aroused as he takes my shoulders in his fingers and kisses my brow tenderly. Then he kisses my nostril and at last my lips.

“Don’t fear about what’s subsequent, Blondie. I’ve bought this. Okay?”

I nod, and he searches my eyes for a second, and he should like what he sees there as a result of he leads me to the self-importance the place he plugs in my blow dryer and treats me to having my hair blown out. He brushes and systematically strikes the instrument round my head, piece by piece, drying my hair, and when he’s completed, he even reaches for my face moisturizer and dabs some onto his fingertips earlier than working it into my pores and skin.

I just like the pampering. Having his fingers on me, his eyes on me with light affection. And eventually, he takes my hand in his, kisses it, and leads me out of the toilet, shutting off the sunshine as we go.

“Lie on the mattress, face down,” he says as he reaches for some lotion, and I do as I’m advised. Fortunately. Willingly.

Joyfully.

And I sigh in delight when these massive, robust fingers of his begin at my shoulders, and he begins kneading my muscle tissue.

“You could have the most effective fingers,” I say with a sigh. “Simply the most effective.”

“I’m glad you assume so as a result of I like having them on you.”

I lose monitor of time, and sure my very own identify, as he works his approach down my physique, rubbing my muscle tissue. When he will get to my leg, I set free a little bit moan.

“Does it nonetheless harm?” he asks, pausing on my calf.

“A bit of, truly. And that was a very long time in the past, however I’ve had just a few cramps since then.”

“You didn’t point out that to me.”

I shrug and switch my head so I can see him. “They weren’t as unhealthy as that first time, and I can often stroll it out. I pissed off that muscle sooner or later. Oh, yeah, that feels good.”

He finishes each legs and my ft, after which he units the lotion apart and leans over to kiss my cheek.

“Roll onto your again, sweetheart.”

Not feeling shy or hesitant within the least, I do as he requests, and I chunk the tip of my finger as his gaze drifts up and down my physique.

“You could have a mark, proper right here.” His finger drifts over a scar on my higher thigh. “What occurred?”

“I walked into the nook of a desk once I was seventeen as a result of I used to be studying a e book and never watching the place I used to be going.”
