“Pretty much,” he admits, walking me into the bathroom. We’re still naked, and as soon as I catch sight of him in the mirror, I let out an appreciative sigh. He laughs and sets me down so he can grab his toothbrush and start the shower. I do the same, brushing my teeth while I run my eyes over him. He winks at me when I manage to pull my eyes back to his face.

“Why aren’t we sleeping in?”

He grins and pulls me to the shower. “I have a surprise for you.”

Matvey’s gentle touch when he guides me under the spray of water and threads his fingers in my hair is so at odds with the overall brute strength of this man. He’s a wall of gorgeous muscle in front of me, but even though I know what this body could do to me, I’m never scared when I’m around him. I know exactly what it feels like to be on the receiving end of a man’s fists, but I also know that Matvey would rather die than hurt me. The strong hands that are now gently washing my hair will never be raised to me in anger.

Leaning into his touch, I kiss his palm while he smiles down at me. “Do I get any hints about this surprise?”

He tilts my head back and starts to rinse my hair. “You’re not expecting it.”

I laugh and try not to get distracted by the rivulets of water running down his tattooed chest. “Well that narrows it down.”

“It’s a surprise,” he reminds me. “You’re not supposed to guess it.”

Reaching over, he grabs the body wash and lathers up my pink bath pouf with it. The citrusy scent mixes with the steam, and my eyes close as I breathe it in, feeling instantly calm and happy. When I open my eyes, he’s staring down at me, head tilted and one dark brow lifted.

“What were you just thinking?”

“The body wash smells like you.” I step closer and run my fingers along his shoulders before pulling him down so I can smell his neck. “You always smell like a mix of citrus and cedar, but underneath it is your own scent, and the combination of all three does something to me.”

He runs his fingers down my wet spine, groaning when I press my stomach against his erection. “What does it do,malishka?”

I let out a sigh when I feel his coarse fingers drag along my ass before cupping a cheek in each hand. “It makes me feel safe,” I whisper over the sound of the water hitting our bodies. “It makes me feel like I’m home.”

“I am your home, Alina, just like you’re mine.” He gives my ass one last squeeze before sliding his hands back up my body to cup my face. “You will always be safe with me.”

“I know.”

When I smile and slide my hands down his wet chest and abs, he groans and gives a soft laugh.

“You’ve always been my temptation.” His lips brush against mine in a soft kiss. “But, unfortunately, we do actually have an appointment that we need to keep.”

“We do?”

He sighs and threads his fingers through my hair, cupping the back of my head and molding our bodies together.

“We do, but I’m going to be thinking about your wet, naked body all goddamn day.”

Before I can say I’ll be doing the same, he kisses me again, this time slower and deeper, and when he finally pulls back, I’m more than a little dazed. He smiles and hands me the bath pouf before wetting his own hair.

“I don’t trust myself to finish washing you.”

While he shampoos his hair, his eyes stay locked on my hands, watching me wash myself until I’m convinced he won’t be able to even zip his damn pants because nothing is going to be able to contain that thing.

“I’ll be fine,” he says, giving another deep laugh when he catches me staring at his cock. He grips his thick shaft in one tattooed hand, and I can’t take my eyes off the way he’s slowly stroking himself. Feeling bold, I step closer.

“How much time do we have?”

The corner of his mouth lifts up in a sexy smile. “What are you planning in that beautiful head of yours?”

Smiling, I take a step backwards and then another, not stopping until I feel the tiled wall behind me. Curling my finger, I beckon him closer. He closes the distance, looking lethal and sexy, until he’s invading my space and towering over me. Fear is the last thing I feel, though. Reaching out, I wrap my hand over his as he continues to work himself.

“I never could resist you,” he whispers, dragging his nose along my cheek until our lips are almost touching. “What do you need from me,malishka?”

“I want you to come on me again.”

He nips at my bottom lip. “Why?”
