My fingers glided across his shoulders and he rolled us onto our sides so he wouldn’t crush me. He was still inside of me.

I clenched, aftershocks trembling between my legs.

“Stratton?” I whispered.

His hands played with my hair. “Hmm?”

“Is it always going to be like this?”

He pulled back just enough so he could look into my eyes. His smile was warm. “No, it’s not always going to be like this.” He kissed my forehead. My nose. My lips. “It’s going to get even better.”

CHAPTER TWELVE

“I should feed you,” Stratton said, kissing me before gently easing out of me.

I shivered at the loss of him.

He grinned. “Don’t worry, gremlin. More of that later.”

Turning, he went to the bathroom to deal with the condom. He tied it off and dropped it into the trash can.

“Actually, before we eat. You wanna shower?” he asked.

“A shower would be nice. I still have hairspray and gunk in my hair.”

He turned on the shower, putting his hand underneath the water to ensure the temperature was just right.

“Come on, gremlin. Let me wash your hair.”

I climbed off the bed and went into the tiny bathroom, closing the door behind me. Steam quickly enveloped the space.

Stratton patted my behind.

“You get in first. I’ll grab a clean towel for you.”

I sidled past him, our bodies brushing against one another. Before I could climb into the shower, he grasped the back of my neck and pulled me to him for a drugging kiss.

He released me and I almost collapsed.

“You going to be okay in there? I don’t want you to fall down,” he quipped.

“I’m fine,” I said.

“You’re weak for me, hmm?”

“Stratton?”

“Yeah?”

“Hush.”

I climbed into the shower, his amused chuckle warming my insides. I adjusted the temperature, making it even hotter and then I grabbed the soap.

The door to the bathroom opened and Stratton returned. A moment later, the shower curtain parted and he got in with me.

He was large and took up most of the space.

We watched each other as I slowly soaped my body.
