Page 79 of Sohut's Protection

She swallowed hard and tore her gaze away, choosing to focus somewhere on his chest instead.

Sohut looked down at himself.

Was his member not impressive?

He blinked at it, a new feeling he’d never experienced before reaching him.

What if she didn’t like what she saw?

“Is there something wrong with my cock?”

“Oh God…” she groaned in a low voice, sinking a little in the water. “What’s not right with it?”

His cock throbbed, jerking a little.

“What’s that?” He’d heard her fine, but he wanted to hear her say it again.

“I said ‘I’ll come out so you can have a bath.’ Turn around.”

That made him want to chuckle.

Stepping forward, he slid into the pool in one smooth movement causing water to slosh over the edge and onto the surrounding rock.

Wide pale eyes stared at him in shock but she had nowhere to go. And, unlike the first time they’d been in the pool together, this time was different.

This time it felt as if the pool had shrunk by epic proportions. There was hardly any room.

“I should get out. The pool is too small.” She wasn’t looking at him now and her tiny hands gripped the edge of the pool as if she was ready to hoist herself out.

“Stay. There’s not another one of these pools until we get to the Torian camp. Enjoy it.”

She muttered something underneath her breath before the color in her cheeks grew warm again and he felt his lips twitch into a smile.

He didn’t need to know what she’d just said; whatever it was, it must have been delicious.

Dipping his head underneath the water, he let the fluid flow through his hair and gave it a wash. The knot he’d put the tendrils in on top of his head came loose as he did and when he resurfaced his hair hung over his shoulders and down his back.

Pale eyes were staring at him again and she muttered something else underneath her breath, squeezing her eyes and shaking her head.

“What is it, Clee-yo?”

She glanced at him. “When did I stop being Cluu to you?”

To be honest, she’d never been Cluu. He’d just been saying it to spite her.

“I don’t know,” he said instead, his eyes taking her in.

Such a pale, beautiful creature.

How could he have even thought she was a feral thing the first time he’d seen her?

“Sohut?” She gulped and he realized he’d treaded the water in the little space between them. He was now so close she was face-to-face with him.

His gaze fell to her lips, and he watched them quiver a little.

When their eyes met again, there was only one thing to do.

The touch of her lips against his sent a jolt of pleasure through him.
