I don’t mind parties either. I’m usually a homebody and would much rather hang out with close friends or curl up with a good book. But there’s something about getting all dressed up and letting loose every once in a while. Though, I don’t see that happening anytime soon. I still need to figure out how to even get a wax around here. I pull my lower lip in between my teeth as I wonder how that works.
“What are you worrying over now?” Levi asks with laughter in his voice.
My head snaps up to him with shock, “Can you read my mind too?” Surprise and a little bit of horror flash across my face as Levi chuckles at me.
“No, only fairy folk are adept at reading minds,” he chuckles. “I’m assuming you found out the hard way that JP can read yours?” He smiles down at me, and I relax, nodding at his question. Thank God he can’t read my mind—one less thing to worry about for right now.
“You were just eating your lip, so I took a guess.” We walk out of the building and into the archway leading to the dorms. “So, what are you worrying about? It’s not the books still, is it?” He asks, and it’s cute how he cares.
I haven’t had a chance to ask my roomies about the things I took for granted back home, so I might as well ask Levi since he knows I’m worrying. I mean, what’s the harm? He might be able to give me an answer. With my mind made up, I ask the awkward question.
“Well, back home, our process in hair hygiene is more complex than here, I would guess. Things are different, and a girl has needs, you see. Habits change, and some just need to be addressed. You know?” I stumble over my words and realize I didn’t answer the question when Levi looks at me with confusion.
I facepalm and then balk when I realize I truly just smacked myself in front of the blond hair, hazel eyed god.
“Relax, Nerezza. I’ll be glad to help answer any questions you have. I understand that things are different here than on Earth,” Levi smiles down at me.
Rolling my eyes, I try again. “Okay. Where do we go to get waxed?”
I swear I’m dealing with the smartest looking dumb person in the world when he gives me another look.
“To remove my hair down there? I didn’t finish my laser treatment before I was sucked into this whirlpool.” I wave my hand in front of my pot of gold, and Levi’s face turns bright red as he gawks.
I step away from him and point an accusing finger in his direction. “See, that’s what I meant. I knew you were going to be weird about it,” I can’t stop my pout as I wrap my arms around my waist. We’re standing in the middle of the walkway where a few students walk by and stare. Damnit. Not only am I now embarrassed about this whole thing, but I’m also getting frustrated about the entire process.
Levi clears his throat, quickly recovering from his embarrassment and apologizes. “I’m sorry. Please forgive me. You would be correct to assume we do things differently here,” he says and motions for us to continue walking. Offering me his arm once more, we move on.
“We use magic to remove hair that we do not want. There’s a little shop in Nova that can do it for you. If you want, I’ll set you up an appointment with them tomorrow after your electives,” he squeezes my arm.
“Thanks. That would be great.”

Back at my dorm, after saying goodbye to Levi, I find it empty. No note or anything. I would invite Levi in to talk and maybe get to know him a little bit better, but he didn’t seem like he wanted to be anywhere near my apartment. Shrugging off his weird behavior, I decide to take a long hot steamy bubble bath. Hopefully, it will ease the energy that’s been building inside of me lately. I fill up the tub and find something that represents a bubble bath here. Lavender Oil Seeds. Hmm. I pour that in and slip in under the purple foam.
The hot water eases my muscles but does nothing for the buzzing energy under my skin. Uncomfortable, I close my eyes and lean my head back on the pillow that’s attached. I know what’s wrong though. I’m horny as hell, and between Levi and Zeke, my body is primed for the taking.
Damn. I wish I had hoppy here. I need a new toy. Cringing, I wonder how to go about finding one without coming straight out and asking JP or Moni. God knows I can’t ask Levi for anything personal again. That was just awkward. Maybe I can ask Zeke, but that’s even more awkward because of our previous encounter. I chuckle to myself.
Needing to help myself, I run my hand down my body, flicking my hardened nipples, and give them some attention before one hand follows down my stomach to my clit. Rubbing in a slow circle, alternating from hard to soft, I work myself up until I’m moaning and at the brink of coming. I’m so close.
‘Yeah, rub that clit. Make yourself cum for Papi.’
I open my eyes and jolt upright, staring at Lynx sitting on the lip of the tub, rubbing his belly as a raccoon.
‘Ugh. Damnit Lynx!’
His turquoise eyes shine with mirth until I throw a loofa at him. The fucker catches it and dips it into the water, rubbing his belly with it now. Well, that’s one way to douse the fires that were burning.
‘Why'd you stop? It was getting good. Something must have happened while you were out to get that worked up. I haven’t seen you that hyped since—’
‘Don’t you say it, Lynx, or else I swear I’ll drown you.’I say, grabbing a towel, stepping out, and quickly wrapping it around me. I almost wonder what’s the point in covering up. He’s seen me plenty of times when I didn’t catch him hiding in my room. Damn pervert.
Lynx starts waddling away from me and moving to the other side of the tub.‘What? I was only going to say, I haven’t seen you that worked up since Joshua Lockhorn tried that clit sucker on you while you were at the movies, and the remote got stuck on level three. Didn’t you piss yourself?’I take off after the little shit as we play ring around the full tub. The edge is wet and he slips off and lands in the water, so I take my chance. I reach in and find his wet neck and start to push him further down into the water.
I feel the change seconds after his body touches the bottom. The next thing I know, I’m neck-deep into the tub and sputtering out bubbles.Ugh. So that’s what it tastes like to wash your mouth out with foam. I look up, and Lynx is in his Seal form while he claps and laughs at me, which really does sound like barking. The little punk switched forms and pulled me in instead.
He hops off the tub and turns into his lynx form next, shaking the water off of him and wiggling his tail.‘You know, if you want, I can get you a toy. All I ask is I get to watch you when you play with it,’he says, grinning like a cat that ate the canary. Seething, I watch as he saunters out of the room. One of these days, I’m gonna skin him.
