"You sure? I can have a look?" I get up and quickly move his way.

"Yeah." Turning his head, those pretty brown eyes of his finally reach mine. If only I can keep them where they are forever. "Only a scratch. I think I'll let it heal the old-fashioned way."

Again we were so close and then he pulled away.

He enters the house, hobbling on one leg as he goes to the bathroom. Moments later, a loud crash has me running into his room, toward the bathroom. With my heart going haywire in my chest, I pull back the plastic curtain. His eyes are so big I think they're going to fall out of his sockets. Suds cover his hair and he uses a small washcloth to block the front of his body. "What are you doing in here?"

"I heard a crash and thought you needed me."

"Well I don't," he mutters underneath his breath. ā€œI'm fully capable of showering myself." Bending down, he reaches for the bottle and falls forward, catching himself on my body.

Grabbing on to his soaked skin, I pin him in place with my gaze. "You're still unsteady from your fall and I don't want you to hurt yourself. What if I wasn't here? You would have fallen through the curtain. I'm staying with you until you're done."

He glowers at me. "What do you mean you're staying?"

Opening the curtain all the way, I enter behind him and close us both in together. "I mean exactly what I said. Don't worry, I'll keep my hands to myself. Until you don't want me to."

"What makes you think I never won't?"

"What makes you think you always will?"

"You're so sure of yourself."

"I like to think of it more as hopeful." I smile. "It'll all happen how it's supposed to in time."

Rolling his eyes, he steps back. "So you assume."

"So I know." I grin. "Don't worry, I'll be patient."

"You'll be waiting a long time."

The wash rag drops from his hand, landing on his feet, and he stays where he is while my eyes travel up and down his body. He's perfect. Gah, I can't wait to touch him. To run my fingers over his hard body and feel him writhe against me, crushing me with his weight while he rides my cock. I can't help but be jealous of the water's ability to cover every inch of him all at once.

"Are you going to stand there and stare at me the whole time?"

"It's the only way I can properly watch you. Are you going to rinse your hair out or leave the shampoo in for the rest of the day?"

"It's kind of hard to do anything with you in here and the odd clothes you're wearing are distracting.ā€

"There isn't much for me to wear here. I'd disappear in any of your clothes. You're twice my size."

"Does that bother you?" His eyes darken and he lathers soap between his hands, washing his body at a leisurely pace. The smug human is taunting me, touching himself in all the places he knows I want to be.

"Not at all." Oh, I can play his games too. "You're exactly what I like."

"Was Albert too?"

I freeze. "Honestly, you're more my type.ā€ After much consideration, him being my mate makes more sense than Albert did. I always wondered why my supposed perfect match didn't have the usual body type I was attracted to. Albert was slender and shorter than me. My desire for him was there but not as much as it is for the man in front of me.My mate.

"I'm really not him," he says, running his fingers over his dark, tiny nubs. My mouth salivates. "I never will be."

"I know."

"Do you?" His hand slides between his legs. Oh, he's going to pay for this. Such a sweet tease.

"Yes. I don't care about who he was. Only who you are. Tell me."

"Iā€¦" He nibbles on his lip. "I can't. I was glad you hadn't asked. I don't think I can handle you saying it. It might make me see everything for what's it's not."
