“You said you stubbed your toe last night.”

She smiled tightly and moved away from me. “I’m all good.”

She was lying. “Are you sure, because it sounded pretty bad last night?”

She got out of bed. “You know what would be fun? Shower sex. I know you’re pretty tall, but I think we can make it work, and that shower is humongous.”

I wanted to argue and talk a little more about things, but sex with her was a no-brainer. I would pause my interrogation just this once. I hopped out of bed and followed her. She was already turning on the water, and I walked up behind her and tapped her on the ass.

She giggled and moved out of the stream of water. Seeing her naked and wet already had me hard. “Baby, you look so beautiful. I need to bury myself in you, right now.”

She gave me a sweet smile. “I’m fine with that.”

“Great,” I replied before picking her up.

She wrapped her legs around my waist, and I rested her back against the tile. I slid two fingers inside her, her wetness coating me. I thrived on her whines as my mouth found hers, my tongue sliding over her own, possessing her. I swiped my thumb over her clit as I continued to finger fuck her as her nails dug into my skin. “Hold on to me tight, baby, so I can fuck this beautiful pussy.”

“Shit, Harris, I need you in me now.”

“Done.” I then pushed inside her, still slowly, although every part of me wanted to pound her into this wall. However, she already said she was sore, and I didn’t want to make things worse if I could help it. It was going to be challenging because she felt like heaven.

“Faster, honey,” she whined in my ears.

“You feel so good, baby. I don’t want this to end.” Encouraged, I thrust in and out of her, slamming my hips to meet her cries of pleasure. “I’m not letting you go, sweetheart. You’re mine. I’m yours. No one else’s. Understood?”

“Still so bossy,” she moaned.

I was getting close, my body ready to snap like a rubber band. “That wasn’t an answer.”

“I understand. I understand, I…” She cut herself off as her words turned into a screaming climax.

I was not far behind as I continued to slap my hips into her. The feel of her quivering around me was driving me insane. And then I came, holding on to her tight as my body spasmed against hers.

I rested my forehead against hers as the warmth of the shower sprayed over us. This moment felt precious, and I didn’t want to let her go. I’d find out the truth of what she was hiding later, but for now, I just wanted to hold her. Be in her. Claim her. Every part of her was mine, and I would use this time to show her that.

Unfortunately, after we pulled ourselves out of the shower, I had to make a few calls regarding our situation. I gave her my food service account access to get anything she wanted us to eat for breakfast, as I was occupied.

When I was done, with very limited leads on the list of suspects or cure options, I found Camilla sitting on the deck, sipping what appeared to be a latte and an almond croissant on a plate resting on a small table next to her lounger. She was dressed in a light blue sundress, her braids swept to oneshoulder. Beautiful as always. I leaned over and kissed her, tasting a slight sweetness on her lips.

I cocked a brow. “Caramel latte? Still have that sweet tooth.”

She smiled sweetly, seemingly relaxed despite our situation. I had hopes that I made her happy in some form. “Any luck?”

I sat down in the lounger beside her. “We’re making progress. How are you feeling? And don’t lie.”

She paused, sipping her drink, her eyes widening then relaxing. “Still a little soreness. But I kind of like it.”

That was so fucking hot, but causing her pain wasn’t going to be my kink. I reached over and brought her fingers to my lips. “I’ll try to be gentler next time.”

She rolled her eyes. “Please don’t.”

I nearly growled. She was mine now. Mine to cherish, mine to take care of, mine to love. There was no going back and I was fine with that. I pushed my glasses back up my nose before sitting back in the seat. She glanced over at me and giggled. “What?” I asked, brows raised.

“Since when did you need glasses?”

I snorted. “Even orc superior senses can sometimes fail us, and my eyesight was one of them.”

“I like them on you. You’re like a suave nerd.”
