CHAPTER FIFTEEN
Haina
WhileJorikandIwere in the bath, Rix prepared food using the fish I’d speared yesterday, and Zane took off into the woods surrounding the cabin to do a bit of recon.
By the time Jorik and I emerged from our steamy sex bath, we both had wrinkly feet and hands and almost needed another shower just to clean up again from having gotten sodirty.
We also couldn’t keep our hands off each other, which I was totally okay with.
“Well, sounds like you two had fun,” Rix said with a big, cheesy smile as he sprinkled some salt over the fish. When the guys saw that the cabin had salt, they had all high-fived, even Zane. Apparently, now we were really going to eat like kings because our food would have flavor.
I was just happy to not have to be choking back those food packets. We’d tried turning them into soup with boiled water, but that had barely made them more palatable.
Jorik bobbed his brows at Rix. “You’re welcome to join us in the tub next time.”
Rix glanced at me, and I nodded enthusiastically. Then he held up a container of something to Jorik and mimicked Jorik’s eyebrow bounce.
“What’s that?” I asked, settling onto a barstool at the kitchen counter.
“Coconut oil,” Rix replied, sharing a knowing and devious smile with Jorik.
I nodded. “For cooking?”
“Among other things,” Jorik replied, kissing me on the cheek.
I shrugged and thanked Rix for the glass of water he handed me. Jorik and I had been in the tub for over an hour, and I was thirsty. It was also really nice to drink out of something other than one of those canteens we’d been using.
We were running a bunch of loads of laundry in the laundry machines—because this place had those—so I was currently in nothing more than one of the ultra-fluffy robes that I’d found in the closet.
Yes, the closets and drawers appeared to have clothes, but they were allwaytoo big for me or the guys. Like XXL, so we’d have to modify them before we wore them and took them with us for extra clothes because we definitely would take a few things with us when we left.
The front door swung open, slamming against the wall, and Captain Sunshine Grumpy Penis himself stood there with a scowl on his face and a giant proverbial thundercloud over his head.
“Well, if the ghosts were asleep, they’re up now,” Rix said blithely, rolling his eyes as he opened up the oven and slid inside the pan of fish.
“I’d say they woke up on Kitten’s second orgasm,” Zane replied. “I heard that a mile away.” He shot me a look that I was sure was intended to make me cower and grow hot with embarrassment, but it didn’t work.
I tossed my shoulders back and met his gaze. “Jealous, Captain?”
He sneered and gave me a “yeah, right” look, before sauntering inside and plunking a cloth on the counter. It opened, and out rolled a handful of tiny red berries.
“Wild strawberries?” Rix asked, peering over Zane’s shoulder.
Zane nodded. “Found a whole slope full of ’em.” He grabbed a small handful and popped them into his mouth.
“Fucking awesome.” Rix grabbed a few and tossed them into the air, catching them in his mouth.
Jorik reached over, scooped some up and placed a bunch on the counter in front of me. “In case Grumpy Penis swats your hand when you try to reach for some yourself.” He grinned at me before turning his attention and a narrowed brow to Zane. This was probably stemming from our conversation in the tub and why Zane hates me.
Jorik had said—after we’d had sex a couple of times—that he and Rix had talked about it at length and even asked Zane why he treated me the way he did, but so far Zane hadn’t said why.
“I dunno about you guys”—Rix scratched the back of his neck and glanced out the window that looked down on the water through the trees—“but I’d be cool staying here for a couple of days. Just for a breather. We’ve been sailing so much, bathing in streams, and sleeping in the same clothes for days on end. I could use a break.”
We’d put the cloaking device on the boat, so if we didn’t light any fires in the cabin to cause smoke or leave any lights on at night, we should be able to keep our presence on the down-low. Besides the fact that I still had a tracker in my body somewhere, of course. Jorik thought that there might be a tracker in my pussypinnedto my cervix, but after he, Rix and I all felt around with our fingers, we couldn’t find anything.
“Not safe,” Zane said gruffly. “We leave tonight.”
“Fuck that, bro,” Rix said, shaking his dark brown head and causing the floppy hair on top to jostle. “Let us do some fucking laundry, restock the boat, do some hunting and get a couple of decent nights’ sleep. Who the fuck knows when we’re going to stumble on a cabin again, let alone one like this? Need to take advantage of our blessings when we get them.” He rubbed my back affectionately. “Besides, Jorik and I were looking forward to spreading Haina out on that king-size bed in the master bedroom and doing a super-soldier sandwich, weren’t we, bro?”
