breasts.
“Fuck, it’s a hundred degrees in here,” Fritz said,
mirroring her thoughts as he braced himself away from her.
Kai laughed out loud. “Gee, I wonder why? Cramped space, two
warm bodies, hot sex.”
Fritz grinned. “It was damn hot, wasn’t it?”
“Incredible.” Kai scooped her hair up off her neck, fanning
her face with her other hand.
Kicking his jeans off after taking care of the condom, Fritz
said, “Let’s take a real shower to cool off.”
“I’d rather go swimming, but since we’re already in here,
why not. Are there towels?”
He peeked around the corner. “Two, so we’ll try not to get
your hair wet.”
Kai slid the shower curtain closed, then shrieked when Fritz
turned on the faucet full blast. Icy water pelted her feverish skin. She ducked
behind him, using his bigger body as a shield until the temperature became
tolerable.
“That’ll kill a hard-on faster than the thought of granny
naked,” Fritz mumbled. Kai began to giggle, then laughed harder when he shoved
her under the spray. Water sluiced over her face and filled her mouth, making
her sputter.
“So much for not wetting my hair, jackass.”
His palm connected with her wet bottom in a loud smack. Kai
squawked in surprise as the sharp sting turned into a pleasant throb between
her thighs. A soft gasp slipped from her lips before she could stop it.
And wouldn’t you know—Fritz’s sharp ears caught the sound.

“You liked that, didn’t you?”
Despite the cool water bathing their bodies, Fritz’s dick
stirred. How was that possible after coming so hard his eyes had crossed not
five minutes ago?
“Maybe,” Kai murmured, avoiding looking at him altogether.
There was no maybe to it. She’d liked the sting of
his hand on her ass. That information would be used against her in the future,
Fritz vowed.
Her mouth brushed across his chest, sipping the water from
his skin, while he pushed her hair back so he could kiss that irresistible spot
where her shoulder curved into her neck. He felt her warm sigh across his arm.
They took their time, touching, exploring, tracing scars and
kissing freckles. Enjoying the slick slide of skin on skin until the water
turned too cold to tolerate, forcing them from the confining shower stall. Not
that he minded having a wet, naked Kai pressed this close, cold or not.
Fritz squeezed the water from her hair with a towel before
succumbing to Kai wrapping the remaining dry one around her body. He slung the
used one around his waist and shooed her toward the bare mattress in the main
part of the loft. They stretched out on their backs, her head resting on his
stomach while his fingers sifted through the damp, darkened mass of her hair.
The fans spinning above their heads helped to dry the remaining moisture from
their skin.
The way she gnawed at her bottom lip told him she was
thinking hard on something. Wasn’t long before he found out what it was.
“Is this going to be too much, Fritz? Me being here every
day, morning and night, above your head?” Kai asked, and he wondered if the
question was just as much for her own benefit as it was his.
He had to admit his mother was playing matchmaker with a
heavy hand, offering up the loft and encouraging Kai to move in right away.
Ruby was hard to refuse when she set her mind to something, and her mind had
always been set on having Kai as a daughter-in-law.
Fritz had no qualms about jumping back into Kai’s bed, but
that didn’t mean he completely trusted her with his heart yet. He wanted to.
God did he ever. Being near her again had confirmed what he’d tried to ignore
during the time she was gone—he’d never gotten over her. After the pain he’d
went through when she left, if he gave her his whole heart again and she
stomped on it, he might not recover a second time.
“You taking so long to answer my question isn’t very
encouraging,” she said, rolling her head on his stomach to nail him with those
sharp blue
