Chapter 139 - Tease

He smirks at me as he says "Like what you see love?" I snap my eyes back to his face and swallow hard as I say "Okay, you're pissed, I get it. Want me to wash your hair?" His smirk grows as he steps closer saying "Of course not. I'm gonna help you wash up." 

I keep stepping back until my butt hits the other side of the tub. I quickly glance at it before looking back at him. He was already in front of me with a white cloth in his hand. I frown at him before giving him a pleading look as I say "I get it okay? I won't ever keep anything from you again. I'm sorry okay?" 

His smirk turns into a smile as he says "I'm glad to know. Hand." He dips the cloth in the water and rubs it a little. The cloth bubbles up as I watch his muscles flex with large eyes. His long dark hair touches the top of the water as he reaches out for my hand. 

I shrink against the wall and sink into the water as I give him a pleading look. I can walk around naked and even play strip poker but being bathed!? That's entirely different! "I can bathe myself, Bai Lei." I reach out for the cloth but he grabs my wrist instead and starts washing my arm.

My heart pounds in my chest as the cloth slowly glides up my arm. My eyes search his as his hand stops at my shoulder. "You shouldn't start something you can't finish," I say with lust flashing in my eyes. His dark eyes mirror my own lust as he says "Be careful love, I have no problem finishing what I've started." 

I slowly stand up and watch with a smirk when his breath hitches. His dark eyes grow darker as he watches the soapy water slide down my body. His hand on me tightens as I step closer to him. His dark eyes suddenly start glowing red, letting me know just how affected he was. 

His voice is just above a whisper as he asks "Did he see you like this?" I shake my head and say "Of course not. Who am I?" His red eyes look up to my green eyes before sliding down to my lips. "I thought you were gonna help me bathe?" I say with a growing smirk. 

I slowly turn around and look over my shoulder with a lifted eyebrow as I pull my long hair over to the side and wait. He clenches his teeth as he tries to keep a clear head. He lifts his hands up to my back and watches with a dry mouth as the soapy water trails down the curves of my back. 

"Gods..." He nearly moans as his hand traces the trail of soapy water down my spine. As his hand trails down my back, I bite my lip and try not to moan at his touch and what it was currently doing to my insides.

As his hand dips lower, it stops right above my butt before he steps closer, bringing his hand around my waist. The cloth is held tightly in his hand as his other hand lands on my hip. His breath on my bare shoulder causes me to shiver as his hand holding the cloth slowly trails up my flat stomach. 

My stomach clenches as he lowers his head and places a soft kiss on my shoulder before lightly biting it. I lean my head to the side and moan when he drags his lips up the side of my neck. He inhales against my skin as he pulls me back against him. 

The cloth drops into the soapy water, completely forgotten as both of his hands trail up my sides. I lean against his chest as his hands come up to my breast. My breath hitches as he bites my jaw but when I feel him press against me, I close my eyes and bite my lip in pleasure. 

His whole body tightens before he quickly pulls me down into the water and saying "Who?" with a threatening voice. The air instantly freezes as I feel Bai Lei cover me in a protective manner. I struggle to clear my head as I hear "I apologize Master... the barrier... it has cracked." 

Ren shakes in his shoes as he cruses his fate. Why now of all times!? Bai Lei clenches his teeth in anger as he says "Leave!" Ren flinches on the other side of the door before quickly leaving. It's not like he wanted to interrupt them!!  

Bai Lei holds me tight while taking a deep calming breath. He lowers his head onto my shoulder while he tries to control his desire. "I have to go back. We'll finish this later." He says placing a kiss on my shoulder before standing up and walking out. 

I sit frozen in the water as he steps out. I turn to look at the empty room and closed door with a look of disbelief. How can he just leave after making me all hot and bothered!? I scoff at the door before slowly lowering myself into the warm water. 

I hold my breath and dip under the water with irritation. I stay under the water until I can't hold my breath any longer. Screw it. I quickly wash up and get out. I get dressed in a clean dress and walk out to the back courtyard.

I look up at the night sky with a sigh. The cold air feels good on my feverish skin as I try to cool off. The sun will be rising soon... when's the last time Bai Lei slept? I feel the ground pulse with that strange power again making me frown. 

Ever since the first time, I refuse to put my hand back on the ground. For some reason, I reacted to it and found myself next to the barrier. I look down at my right arm with the writing and frown again when I feel it pulsing with the energy in the ground.
