And now that Abel was dead, there was an additional question that would prod at Cain: Just how would Adam choose to retaliate?

Cain wouldn’t chew on any of that tonight, though. He was going to simply enjoy this moment of peace with his consort.

It took two more rounds of shampooing to completely clean her hair. As she applied the conditioner, he began to slide his soap-slicked hands over her body, not needing to be careful of any open wounds. Her injuries were already healed—both thanks to the perks of immortality and to Anabel’s healing potion.

They lightly kissed and stroked as they soaped each other down until no more red mingled with the water that hit the base of the shower. She gasped each time he palmed her breasts, tweaked her nipples, or licked droplets of water from her skin.

After they’d rinsed off, he slid his hand down her body and said, “Ah, I forgot to check if you’re clean here.” He dipped a finger inside her pussy, finding it hot and wet. “Hmm, not quite. You’re all slick.” He tutted.

“That’s your fault, you made the mess, so you should be the one to clean it.”

He smiled. “Lucky for you, it’s something I enjoy doing.”

“I don’t know why you’re being so difficult.”

Watching his consort slip off the bed the next morning, Cain lifted a brow. “How am I being difficult?”

“You’re gonna play stupid now? Really?” She shook her head in annoyance, but affection warmed her eyes.

“I’m not asking for anything unreasonable.”

“No, you’re not—which makes a nice change.”

He ignored that jab. “You’re not working today. There’s no reason you can’t spend it with me.” Having an entire day together wasn’t something they were able to enjoy often, since they were both very busy people.

She grabbed her duffel from the floor near the table. “As I’ve already stated, I’m fine with spending the day with you. I’d like to. But we need to put a pin in the plan until I’ve checked on my coven.”

“That will involve you getting dressed.” He slid to the edge of the mattress and planted his feet on the floor. “The plan is for us both to stay naked the whole day, remember? You agreed to it last night.”

“Because you wouldn’t let me come until I did.”

“How is that relevant?”

She let out a snort, her mouth twitching. “I won’t be gone long. An hour, if that.”

“An hour is long.” He fisted the shirt she wore and pulled her so close she stood between his spread thighs.

“You’re such a baby when you’re not getting your way.”

Humming, he pressed a kiss to the strip of skin between her breasts while taking the duffel from her hand and dumping it on the floor. “You’re my consort, you’re supposed to give me my way.”

“I’m your consort, yes, but I’m also a Priestess. I have responsibilities. I have a coven, and I refuse to neglect them.”

“Not seeing them for one day wouldn’t count as neglect. They’re not children, Wynter. They’re fully grown adults. I’m quite certain they’ll be fine without your supervision for one day.” As she stared at him, her brow flicked up, he amended, “All right, I suspect they’ll be fine without your supervision.”

She let her fingers drift through his hair. “Once I’ve paid them a visit and ensured they’re all fine, I’ll come back here. We can stay naked for the rest of the day, and you can do whatever you want to me.”

He gave her a pointed look. “I can do whatever I want to you any time I please. I don’t need your permission.”

She smiled, dropping her hands to his shoulders. “You’re so cute sometimes.”

“Cute?” His creature snorted, offended.

“Adorable, even. Ooh, that growl made all my pink parts excited.”

“That a fact?” Cain stood and backed her into the wall, drinking in how her eyes flared with both nervousness and anticipation—a delightful combination. “Hmm, I’d like to see that for myself.” He dropped to his knees and nuzzled her pussy, loving her little gasp.

“You’re not being fair.”
