I nod. “It’s torture just looking at you.”
“I know, right? It should only hurt for a day, though.”
I mean me not being able to devour her, but I don’t say it. “Let me get the aloe.”
She shifts carefully to the bed, working hard to avoid bending her midsection any more than she has to.
I stand in my bathroom, staring at my reflection for a good minute. I will not do anything to that woman. I will apply aloe like a proper gentleman, and I will leave her alone.
As if it knows better, my dick twitches.
I’m doomed.
I open the cabinet and pull both the aloe and the cream I always keep on hand even though it’s really rare for me to burn.
When I return to the room, Tillie is stretched out naked on my bed, the lines of light from the blinds’ wood slats crossing her body.
Damn. That’s a sight. I want to photograph it so I can see it anytime I like.
But no. I commit it to memory instead and sit next to her with the two containers.
“We’ll try a bit of both and see which one works better.”
She nods.
I squeeze aloe gel on my finger and paint a line on one side of her belly.
“That’s nice,” she says, closing her eyes.
I spread it gently, my rock-hard need for her threatening to overtake me.
“Here’s the other one,” I say, clearing my throat when the words turn into a croak. I’m not in control here. Not at all.
I squeeze the cream and cover a similar amount of territory on the other side of her belly.
“Mmmm. That one nips the pain, but the aloe is better with cooling.”
I reach down to adjust my shorts.
She opens her eyes and catches me. “This is a lot, isn’t it?”
“I won’t ravish you in this condition.”
She sighs. “It’s just as hot for me lying here as it is for you looking at me.”
Is it? “Will it help if I’m naked, too?”
She grins. “Things will get risky.”
“Nope. I won’t do a thing.”
“Even if I beg?”
Yeah, no. I couldn’t resist that. “Okay, I’ll stay dressed.”
“Please don’t. I like to look at you.” Her gaze stays on me.
This is one hard-core game of temptation we’re playing. But I sit up and pull my T-shirt over my head.
