Are you really sure about that, Josie?

I shut down that annoying inner voice and focus on Brody’s steady breathing. The next thing I know, my eyes are opening, and the second memories rush back, I turn to find the other side of the bed empty. Well, not entirely empty. My phone is sitting there. I snatch it up and find a missed video call from home, as well as a text from Brody, letting me know I missed a call, and that he took Miss Mabel out for a run.

I sit up in bed and check the clock, mentally calculating what time it is back home. It’s four in the afternoon our time, which means it’s ten at night in Switzerl

and, and my folks will still be up, but I certainly don’t want to video chat with them from my bed, stark naked.

My stomach grumbles as I wrap a sheet around me and pad to the bathroom. I turn on the shower and step inside, letting the hot spray soothe my body. I grin, aching in places that have been dormant for a long time, but it’s a good ache. A welcome one. I lightly touch my nipples and they pucker.

I reach for the soap and the rumbling of Miss Mabel and Brody’s footsteps pounding up the stairs brings a smile to my face. I wait a moment, hoping he’ll discover I’m awake and in the shower, and sure enough, the second he steps into the bathroom and spots me behind the steamy glass he starts stripping.

I crack the door. “You’re pretty presumptuous.”

His grin is wide, playful…full of want, and it’s crazy how much I want him too, after orgasming twice.

“Are you saying you don’t want me to join you?”

“Not saying that at all.” I slide the glass door open wider. “I’m just saying you’re presumptuous.”

“Come on, you know you love it.”

I laugh at that, and step back as he joins me, his big body eating up the space and overwhelming me in the most delicious ways.

“Presumptuous and a big ego.” He angles his head, like he’s waiting for me to continue. “What?”

“That’s it, you’re going to stop there.” I eye him and he playfully adds, “You’re not going to tell me something else is big.” He grips my hips and pulls me against his very erect cock.

I laugh and smack his chest. “You’re unbelievable.”

“In bed, you mean.”

I can’t help but laugh at his playfulness. “Okay, Brody. You have a big cock and you’re a God among men in bed.”

“Well, now that we’ve cleared that up,” he says and spins me so fast, I gasp. “How about I show you I’m a God among men in the shower too.”

“Yes please,” I say and that makes him laugh. He shimmies close, and I love the feel of his warm naked body pressed against mine.

He puts his mouth close to my ear, and his hot breath on my neck brings on a shiver. “You’re not cold, are you, being out from under the hot spray?”

“Not cold at all,” I tell him.

“Well that’s too bad,” he murmurs. “I was hoping to warm you up.”

“Now that I think about it, there is a chill in the air.”

“Atta girl.” He slides his hands around my body, and cups my chest, then he goes still.

“What?”

“Shit. Your parents video messaged. Did you see that? I meant to ask you but you know, you naked in the shower. Kind of slipped my mind. Not much blood left there.”

I wiggle my ass. “While I appreciate your concern, I’m not really interested in talking about my parents.”

“Everything’s okay though, right? It’s not unusual for them to video message like that?”

I turn to him and cup his cheeks. “It’s not usual.” I go up on my tiptoes and put my lips on his, giving him a soft, gentle kiss my heart bursting from his sweet concern. I gesture with a nod. “If you’re really worried, I can go—”

“Hell no,” he says and I laugh, a bubble of happiness bursting inside me as he turns me again. I put my hands on the wall and wiggle my ass.
