I sigh loudly, my head lounging back as the bath water's scent curls around me, but it doesn't rid me of his smell. It doesn't wash away the feel of his touch or halt the wanton throb between my thighs.
Eryx did relieve me of my heated state, but by not mating, I feel empty and needy still. It is highly frustrating and not something I should be focusing on when my brother has been called away about another attack or by the idea that Soren could return at some moment on orders by Deyanira.
With a huff, splashing the water with my hand, I started washing up and climbed out of the bath. Lying around like that won't make me feel better, nor will mulling over issues I cannot do anything about yet. For now, I will focus on the present.
