Alex was looking at the horses that were still drenching in rain since the cave mouth was not large enough to take them in.
He had tied them to the dense trees so that they would not get much rain but for some reason he felt that Marino, the horse Oli was riding, was behaving differently.
But his head snapped to her direction and all the other thoughts vanished in an instant.
"What did you say?" he asked with widened eyes as his Adam apple bobbed up and down. "You want to take off your clothes?"
It was not the first time that he would see a man without a shirt. They often bath together in the lakes when they do camping or while training but Oli had always been sensitive to it and now that he had proposed to her, he felt sensitive about such a thing.
Oli ignored the shock in his eyes. She still needed her own courage. She wiped the rain from her face and looked straight into his eyes.
