Page 112 of Bonding with the Beta

6:14 AM.

Shit. I’ve slept for over twelve hours.

I run a hand down my face and creep out of the bed as quietly as possible. I make my way down the hall to the bathroom I once shared with him and slip inside, pressing my back to the door.

My eyes ache from yesterday’s antics.

Even my sleep didn’t allow me to digest everything.

I turn on the large waterfall shower head. The hot water begins to steam up the room as I strip my clothes and climb in.

My mouth parts as I groan at the comfort and close my eyes, feeling somewhat relieved to have good water pressure for once. I stand for a while, unmoving. I don’t attempt to wash myself. I just stand there and let the water pour over my head.

There is a small squeak behind me, and I turn to find Kayden standing there stark naked. I don’t have time to say anythingas he steps into the shower behind me, the water hitting his impressive chest.

He steps closer to me until my back hits the wall. The cold tiles burn into my heated skin. I shudder at the intensity of his eyes as he places one hand on the wall beside my head and the other on my cheek.

I hold my breath as he crowds over me, making me feel tiny in comparison.

Kayden’s eyes harden, watching me carefully. The air turns thick with tension, and I wish I turned the damn temperature down so I can breathe. His warm lips lower to graze my jaw, my heart thrashing outside my chest.

His mouth trails down my neck, moving agonisingly slow. My head tilts back against the wall as a whimper bursts through my lips at the gentle touch that makes me shudder with goosebumps.

“Tell me,” he whispers huskily against my skin before he places a firm kiss on my throat. “Tell me you don’t feel that.”

My eyes screw shut at his voice as he drops his hand from my cheek and laces his fingers through mine. I tremble as he kisses below my earlobe. “Tell me you feel nothing when I touch you.”

I squeeze my legs together at his deep voice and playful lips.

“Tell me that what we have isn’t special,” he murmurs, pressing his forehead against mine as my eyes open.

A soft smirk covers his mouth before he dips his head to the other side of my neck, lighting up my body like a Christmas tree. “Tell me,” he demands.

“I-I can’t,” I pant.

“Hmm?”

Those lips are torturing me now. Every slight movement against my skin has my head swimming in the clouds and my body answering his every touch.

“I can’t,” I repeat louder.

“Why?”

My core throbs as he nips the skin above my collarbone. The action is possessive and dominating, making my eyes water.

“Because I feel it,” I admit.

Kayden pulls back and places both hands flat on the wall behind me, trapping me between his arms. He smiles, and those gorgeous dimples make butterflies erupt in my stomach.

He takes my hand and pulls me from the wall before turning me around until I face the tiles. I brace my palms on the wall as my head rolls when he presses kisses to my bare back, sending me wild.

My skin burns, and it’s not from the water.

I close my eyes and drown in the sensation of Kayden completely pleasuring me in the most innocent of ways. I’m shivering in his hold as he takes his time, kissing every patch of skin.

His hand wraps around my waist, his large palm flattening against my stomach as he tugs me back into him. I twist my head, and our lips meet for a brief second. I’m breathless, and he hasn’t even kissed me.

My eyes move to his, and time stands still.
