Vines of flowers and plants surrounded the giant tub. The air was sweet with the scent of roses, jasmine, and other exotic blooms that seemed to be intoxicating.
Finally, I created a long bench to sit beside the tub, along with a sponge, a bar of the purple soap that she liked so much, a bucket of champagne on ice, and three glasses.
“Can I get in now?”
“Of course.”
Before Hatter could offer to help her out of her clothes, she began to strip.
The shredded blue dress fell down her toned, tan legs and gathered around her ankles. Her filthy hair tumbled down her spine, luring our gaze to her gorgeous ass.
Her arms and legs and her shoulder were covered in bruises and battle wounds from the poisonous thorns and the deadly chess match.
I saw past it all.
Despite the damage, she was still so, so incredibly beautiful.
Hatter and I watched Alice climb into the tub and lower her battered body into the healing water. She held her nose and sank beneath the bubbles, disappearing from view for long enough that I grew concerned.
“Is she alright?” Hatter moved to the other side of the tub, scooping out one handful after another of bubbles to see where Alice had gone. They were so thick that it was useless.
Suddenly she burst up through the surface of the water, splashing us as she let out a gasp of exhilaration.
Despite the darkness and decay festering all around us, my precious mortal was more radiant than a hundred thousand stars.
From what I could see, there wasn’t so much as a scratch left on her flawless body. All the blood and filth had vanished from her long, blonde hair cascading down her back. I could barely able to tear my eyes away. It shone in golden wet waves that spread across her breasts...then curled around her nipples.
I’d never been so envious of hair in all my existence.
“Feel better?” I asked, handing her a glass of champagne.
“Ohhh...fuck yeah. This feels so good, Chess...” she sighed in such wanton tones that it made me hard.
Hatter sat on the edge of the tub while I perched on the bench. Together we watched her swallow one greedy mouthful of wine after another.
I found myself wondering if she’d swallow my cock with as much enthusiasm once I finally let her see it. She might run away screaming. I lifted up my glass and smiled at Hatter, who was practically frothing at the mouth with restrained desire.
"Tell me," I said, leaning down close to her ear, “is there anything else you’d like now that you’re healed? Anything else you desire?”
Alice hesitated for a moment, her blue eyes meeting mine, and then darting to Hatter's mismatched gaze. It was clear what she wanted, but would she have the courage to ask for it?
“There is...” She held out her glass for Hatter to refill it. Her eyes gleamed with amusement as she looked between us. She was a vision of loveliness and deadliness, like a rose with razor-sharp thorns.“I want you both to get in here with me. I’m ready.”
I smiled softly and shook my head.
“You might be ready for Hatter...but you’re not ready for me.”
“Yeah, I am,” she insisted.
“No. You’re not.”
Alice scowled at me. Her disapproval grew even deeper when she beckoned me to join her in the tub and I refused.
A primal flicker of pent-up tension tore through me at her reaction, and my demonic green eyes darkened.
“I will tell you when you’re ready!” I growled through my bared teeth.
The little pinched frown on Alice’s lips faded away. I thought she’d finally caught a glimpse of who—ofwhat—she was dealing with, but her mouth simply curled into another one of her coy grins.
