Even if it was all those things, she wanted June to have them. She wasn’t
 
 embarrassed by the depth of her need. A little scared, maybe, but not
 
 ashamed. There was no shame between them. She met June thrust for
 
 thrust, her body and hips gyrating madly as she broke apart over and over.
 
 She came in great, wrenching waves that left her spent and shaking

 June got the glass shower door open and cranked on the water. She tested
 
 the spray with a few fingers to make sure it wasn’t scalding or freezing

 The water hit June’s sensitive skin, feeling like knives. Arabella gasped
