Probably not. “Yes.”
Leo stepped out of the bathroom while I struggled to undress. I climbed into the tub and sank back to absorb the luxury it provided. “You can come back in.” I called.
He walked back into the room and his fangs lengthened in response to seeing me in the tub. He composed himself quickly though as he started removing his shirt and watch. When I looked at him quizzically he explained, “I don’t want them to get wet.”
God, I’m too tired to even appreciate the sight of this beautiful shirtless man taking care of me. He grabbed a washcloth and came over to sit on the edge of the tub. I felt too exposed so I held my knees into my chest. He dipped the cloth into the water before wringing some down over my head and back. He massaged my back while I softly moaned in pleasure. My body was melting into his capable hands. He grabbed some shampoo and started lathering my hair, massaging my scalp like an expert. He turned on the spray head to rinse. “Does this feel okay?” He asked as he was delicately washing the suds away.
“Mmmm. Yes, definitely.” Way better than okay.
I leaned my head back, resting it on the edge of the tub. I tried focusing on reading his emotions. I could sense his desire, but his concern for me was much stronger. Wow, I can’t believe how easy that was!
He placed his hand on my cheek as I leaned into him. I had to resist the urge to kiss his palm. “You’re so beautiful, my love.” He whispered. “Do you have any idea what you do to me? I could look at your face for an eternity.”
“Leo, I---”
“Shh” He said. “I’m not looking for a response. I just needed to tell you that.”
Closing my eyes, I relaxed back into the tub. He caressed my face and neck, spending extra time tracing his fingers over the large artery that exposed my rapid pulse. I could sense his desire building and it was having a similar effect on me. I had to get out of this tub before I acted on our mutual feelings.
“Um, Leo?”
“Yes my dear?”
“I’m ready to get out.” I said, trying to sound sure of myself.
He hesitated, probably because he sensed my feelings too, but then he grabbed a towel and robe, and placed them next to the tub. “I’ll be in the other room if you need me.” He said over his shoulder with a wistful expression.
As soon as he closed the door, I dried off and pulled the robe over my shoulders, tying the belt securely. I walked into the bedroom and found Leo sitting on the edge of the bed, looking lost in his thoughts. He stood up and guided me over to the bed, pulling the covers down and helping me in. When I was settled, he scooted in behind me. He began combing through my wet hair while I sighed in contentment; my lids were becoming very heavy. Before I succumbed to sleep I whispered, “Leo?”
“Hmm?” He said.
“Thank you.”
“Anything for you my dear.” I felt him kiss the back of my neck before I drif
ted off to dreamland.
***************
I woke up the next morning feeling better than I have in days. I had renewed energy and a voracious appetite. I was a little disappointed to find that Leo was not in bed. I went to the bathroom and splashed some water on my face. I stepped out into the living room and found him sitting at the table with a buffet full of food waiting for me.
Nodding towards the food he said, “I saw you stirring so I took the liberty of ordering something. I wasn’t sure what you’d want so I got a variety.”
“Thank you.” I smiled and sat down at the table, taking a bite of an omelet.
“How are you feeling?” He asked.
“Surprisingly, pretty good.” I said. “I’m really hungry again, but not tired.”
“Uh oh, should I hide the extra chairs?”
“Funny Leo.”
I took a bite of some pancakes. “So, I have some more questions for you.”
“Why do I feel like a Professor of Vampire 101 whenever you’re around?” He teased.
“Wow, you’re being a smarty pants this morning aren’t you?”
