But it was more than that. I had to remember that this guy was an alien.

As hot as that was, it was also concerning. But he also made me feel things I never had before, and those feelings were difficult to wrangle when it was time to make decisions.

Suddenly feeling shy, I ducked deeper into the water and made my way out to the center of the pool. The water was deeper than I’d expected but oh, so divine.

There was a faint smell of sulfur that wasn’t the best, but if felt so good to wash away the grime that had built up on my skin and in my hair.

The heat was an added bonus, soothing all my aches and pains and chasing away the chill I hadn’t been able to shake. I would have killed for a little shampoo.

Like I projected my thoughts outwardly, one of the males standing guard handed Drogann a grey, waxy bar that was half the size of his hand.

When he dipped it into the water, and it immediately began to lather, an unbidden squeak of delight came from me, startling him.

Drogann raised one dark eyebrow as he slowly began to wash his hairy chest. I swam back over, already crossing the invisible boundary my thoughts were about to erect between us.

But…he hadsoap.And he was grinning.

He even handed it right over without me having to coax him into a game of charades. Sighing in pleasure as a pleasantly fresh minty smell came from the soap, I ducked my head into the water and immediately began to scrub at my scalp.

After rinsing, I felt refreshed and relaxed and open to every touch of Drogann’s eyes on me.

He was leaning against the edge of the pool, seemingly content just to watch me enjoy myself.

My hands slowly washed my arms and my chest as he watched. I liked his eyes on me, liked having his undivided attention.

I craved it even.

I knew he liked mine on him as well by how he smirked at me as if he knew what his wet naked body was doing to me.

He didn’t put on a show or preen for me in that way that I seemed to want to do, but he didn’t need to.

The guy was fuck-hot just resting there, his tail lazy flicking through the water at his side. I kept my eyes on him even as the males stirred at the pool’s edge, their presence nearly spoiling the moment for me.

Was I really contemplating this? Considering having sex with him?

Back home, I’d read countless stories with similar scenarios.

Werewolves, demons, and yes, evenaliens, but they were just stories.

They weren’treal.

Drogann was actual flesh and blood and eye-fucking me in a way that was hard to resist.

What if our parts didn’t match up?

Though the sexual chemistry was off the charts, would that even exist if we weren’t compatible?

But what if the sex sucked?

Or worse…what if he lost interest in me after we bumped uglies and I was all alone again?

As pessimistic as I could sometimes be, and as often as I self-sabotaged in the past, deep down, I knew Drogann wouldn’t leave me alone.

I wasn’t sure how I knew, but Iknew.

He suddenly pushed up from his lounged position as if he could read the inner battle inside of me and was determined to meet it head-on.

I shifted nervously as he stood before me, his chest brushing mine in the best kind of tease.
