“You’re done showering?” he asked in surprise. “That was fast.”

I rubbed the last of the lotion onto my skin. “You expected me to take a two-hour shower while you’re suffering in cold, wet clothes?”

“Not exactly.” He moved past the doorway. “I found us some stuff.”

I came out of the bathroom and followed him to the bed where he’d set the plastic bag down.

“It’s not great, but at least we won’t starve. I’ve got boxes of cereal, fruit, and yogurt. There is a vending machine in the lobby, so if we get desperate, we can always hit it up. But I saved the best for last.” He reached into the bag and pulled out a few mini bottles of liquor.

I took the bottles. “Where did you get these?”

“I’m magic,” he quipped.

I peered at him. “You bribed the desk agent, didn’t you?”

“Told you. Magic.”

I laughed. “Shower’s all yours.”

He stripped out of his leather vest and hung it up in the closet. Next came his thick boots.

“Wet socks are the worst,” he said. “I can handle anything else, but wet socks are the devil’s work.”

I barely heard what he was saying because I was too busy staring at his muscular chest. The wet T-shirt suddenly looked two sizes too small on him, and I wanted to peel it off him and explore his damp skin with my fingers.

“Logan?”

“Huh?”

“I asked if you needed to get back into the bathroom before I shower?”

He’s going to be naked…

“Nope,” I squeaked. “Enjoy your shower…”

He met my gaze and stared at me for a long moment, a slight smile curving his lips. “Oh, I will.”

He walked toward the bathroom and turned and winked at me before he closed the door. A moment later, I heard the shower turn on and then the sound of him undoing his belt buckle.

You can hear everything through the walls.

While Smoke was in the shower—and while I was trying not to think about him naked and wet—I put the liquor bottles and the plastic cups that he’d gotten on the nightstand.

I sat on the far side of the bed, the one closest to the air conditioner, and waited for Smoke to finish his shower.

He was taking longer than I expected and I was getting hungry. I reached for a banana, but a sound coming from the bathroom made me pause.

I froze when I realized what I was hearing.

My cheeks flamed with heat and a throb settled between my thighs.

Smoke was wet, naked…and pleasuring himself.

With me in the next room.

Surely, he knew I could hear him…

Did he want me to hear him?
