out what it could be. There was only one thing he could think of and it made him frown.
“We haven’t had sex, made love, bumped nasties – whatever you want to call it – for six months or more. I already told you. Is that what’s bothering you? Are you thinking her big news is that she’s pregnant?”
Judging by Alicia’s blush, he’d guessed right. He sat up, which brought him practically nose to nose with her. An electric charge ran through his body as he smelled her sweet scent mixed with dried sweat from her run. He thought he would have been turned off by the sweat part but he wasn’t. He wanted her just as bad now as he ever had. It seemed she was noticing him too, if her beautiful eyes going round as saucers was any indication. He reached up to run his fingers over her arm and she jumped up.
“I – ah – ” she warbled. There was a pause while she pulled the neck of her t-shirt up and sniffed exaggeratedly at it. The scrunched up face she pulled was over the top yet still absolutely adorable. Nate found himself swallowing a grin and nodding solemnly in understanding as she shuddered, turned and bolted for the bathroom. A heartbeat and a half later, when he didn’t hear the lock click into place, he got up slowly and followed. He stripped his own shirt off as he went.
Right beside the entrance to the bathroom was the main door to the suite. He put out the “DO NOT DISTURB” sign, wishing there was some way he could highlight or flag it so anyone wanting to interrupt would definitely see it and back the hell off.
“Not this time, please,” he whispered, wondering if it was wrong to ask God for the opportunity to make love. Nate actually felt himself blush as he considered this. Then he pushed the thought from his mind. After all of the back-and-forth and waiting, it wouldn’t do to let his upbringing get in the way. If he was still bothered by the whole thing when he got home, he would ask his very devout mother for her opinion.
Nate waited patiently for the shower to start, along with the little sigh of happiness Alicia mentioned she always let out when she first stepped under the hot water. They’d been talking about the little things that made them smile and just the mention of showers made his cock jump. He thought she’d brought it up to tease him, but she was actually serious.
Finally, after what seemed like way too long, the water turned on. Instead of a sigh, Nate heard a chuckle and realized Alicia had deliberately taken her sweet time, just to torment him. He swallowed a snort of laughter.
I’ll tease you, woman! he thought, waiting for her to step under the spray. When she finally did, she gave out a small gasp instead of a sigh. This was followed by a sexy moan that made his blood run hot. All of a sudden, he was worried she was would take matters into her own hands. Just as he started to open the door, she said the words which were music to his ears.
“If you don’t get in here right away, Nate, it could very well be over before you begin.”
Chapter 14
Who knew the feel of the water on her already sensitized skin would be so damn erotic? Then there was the fact Nate had incited a riot of need in her, just by bringing himself close enough for her to inhale his scent. Stetson cologne, his own manly musk and a hint of dried sweat from their walk this morning made her want to press in close, bury her hands in his short, thick hair and plunge her tongue into his mouth. That image, of course, sent her hormones into overdrive. It was time. Even if she never saw him again, she had to know what it was like to be with him.
“If you don’t look at me, my over-sensitive ego will be crushed,” he said quietly. His voice was strained as he stood on the other side of the glass shower door.
“If I look at you, I might combust,” she answered, risking a peek sideways. Her brain stuttered to a stop as her eyes popped fully open and her head
