Chapter 118: Tempting

"I-I-I’m not tempting y-you" I stuttered so bad to his reply and my face flushed further, I tried to pull away from him but his hold against me was like steel.

He chortled at my futile attempts to get away from him, watching me like I was some movie before him.

"Easy baby" he mused and I stilled, he pulled me more against his hard form and I froze up. "Then how do you explain this?" he shifted his lower body to mine and my heartbeat sky jumped. I felt it! Something hard poking me against my stomach was that...

"I-I-I can stand on my own," I said quickly hoping I would change the topic.

"You sure?"

I nodded, I felt so hot right now, I needed to calm myself, but first I needed to move away from him, or else I would melt before I could blink.

"Okay"

I felt ease wash over me, but that didn’t stop my body from tautening when he moved and let me go gradually, my breath restarted and I was forced to take a deep sigh.

I rubbed my arms on my sweatpants, my gaze leveled unable to meet his. These black tiles were becoming more interesting to look at.

"Good?"

I nodded, although I felt slightly weak I could still stand on my own two feet.

"Emma"

"Y-Yes" I shyly raised my gaze. He nudged his head and I followed it to the sink. Right, I need to brush my teeth first.

As I paced toward it the culmination struck me, was my breath bad? Was that why he didn’t want to kiss me? Of course Emma, what do you expect? I have been asleep for a week, the embarrassment almost made me crumble. I held onto the sink for balance before reaching for the new toothbrush I spotted, toothpaste it, and brushing my teeth but I almost swallowed the foam when I felt a hand on my waist.

My eyes drift to the wide mirror and I saw Dace staring back at me.

"Be careful with how you tempt me, Emma, I will try to be on my best behavior until you recover"

I think I gobbled the foam!

I quickly turned on the tap and rinsed my mouth quickly and Dace didn’t look away for even a second, he seemed amused now, he knew exactly what he was doing! I couldn’t help as my eyes darted to his chest still laid on display for me, his build was so... muscular and velvety, clear flawless white skin, from this angle they were all shiny, such an amazing outline like he was sculpted by some flawlessly. I licked my lips when my eyes got to his nipples sticking out like some candy, slightly pink, reminding me of one of my favorite sweets.

I inhaled when he pinned my back to his body and I grip on the sink tightly like my life depended on it.

Our gazes were now sealed and the heat slumped in once again, I was unable to look away like I was hexed.

"What did I say about tempting me?" He said with clenched teeth, close to my ear and his heat scrubbed upon me, this cold bathroom was becoming like a furnace. "Your sweet arousal is all over the place"

Fuck! I forgot he could sniff that out, I should really keep myself in check because the looks he had on sought of scared me, like a lion about to break loose from its cage. But I can’t control my body right now, I have been freakishly horny ever since I woke up and Dace isn’t helping at all, he was making me go tumultuous.

"I-I should bathe now," I said in a tranquil tone but he didn’t respond, his eyes still remained locked on mine through the mirror. What should I do? My heart started hammering, and my nerves were all over the place.

I was snapped out of my thoughts when he yanked me gently away from the sink and faced me to the showers.

"Go in"

"O-Okay," I said slowly walking toward it knowing fully well he was still watching my every move, was he gonna be here throughout?

I slid the glass door shut and luckily I noticed they weren’t transparent.

I noticed the basket down before the tiles, a small parting from the wide bathroom, I guess that is where my clothes go in, I also spotted a white towel for me on the hang. That was enough to make me feel relaxed so I stripped, my hand hurt so much because of the drip so it took forever before I could take my clothes off.

I stepped into the black tiled bathroom, it looked like some king bathroom. And now I was lost, which switch do I turn on? I knew there were dual showers due to the multiple showerheads I saw, but I was focused just on the one at the top.

"Press the top switch" I heard Dace. "It’s warm"

I gulped before doing as I was told but before that, I took off my glasses and placed them in the glass drawer where the shampoos were lined up, I could easily make it out as I bathed.

I allowed the hot shower to engulf my body and I moaned but I was careful not to let the bandage around my neck get wet, well it was a little attempt at least it wasn’t soaked. My body stung from the water, I guess my body still hurts. I washed my hair and the shampoo smelt so amazing, it smelt like Dace, so delicious!

For a minute I opened my eyes and it did that thing again, one minute a clear vision and the next blur, I think I have to see a doctor because this wasn’t normal, I have always known my vision to be a blur and not an off and on switch.

I was able to think now, with the water flooding my brain, that dream, the dream I had, It still bugged me and I still felt my body tingle from that sensation when the colors flowed through me, it was so magical. I will have to figure that out later.

I turned off the shower, and slid back on my glasses, wrapping a towel around my hair and then my body.

I skated the door open hoping to meet with piercing hazel eyes but... he was gone.

"Dace?"
