“Is Lisa here?”, Dayson asked while putting food into Talia’s plate.
“She’s in her room since last night.”, Stephanie responded with finality that indicated she didn’t want to talk about it.
Lisa locked herself in her room and refused to come out. It was understandable that Lisa was upset with Tony finding his mate and Kalina getting the party that Lisa always wanted, but Stephanie wished that Lisa sees how the reality can’t be changed and that drifting between sorrow and anger is harming only Lisa. Tony was out of Lisa’s reach and Lisa needed to snap out of it.
Stephanie hoped that Lisa will cry it out, and move on. Eventually.
“How was the party?”, Maya started the chit-chat.
“Party?”, Dayson asked and made a face like he was thinking about something intently.
Other than spending time with Talia, eating, dancing, and wanting to go to their room as soon as possible, he didn’t remember much. Dayson never chatted about things he deemed insignificant, and he didn’t want to talk about the only things that were important (Talia’s sweet pussy milking his cock and Talia crying his name breathlessly). That was for him and Talia to know. Private.
“I’m not the best person to comment on the party, but I’m sure Talia has stories to tell. She made a friend and she secured us a tribute from the Steelbite pack.”
Talia smiled at Dayson’s words. She made a friend, Kalina.
Maya was interested in the second part. “What tribute?”
Maya wondered, why would Alpha Richard give them tribute?
Talia shook her head with a smile, indicating that it’s not a big deal. She didn’t want to talk about Cassie. “Dayson needs to negotiate the tribute. When that happens, you will know more than I will.”
It was the first time for Talia to attend such an event, and she thought how everything was amazing, especially Dayson’s company. He made everything better. However, considering Maya’s and Stephanie’s low mood, Talia didn’t feel like raving about her good time, so she shared a few reserved points about Kalina, decorations, food, and she mentioned that Mindy was there also, and Talia left it at that.
After lunch, Dayson and Talia went to their room and Talia immediately started unpacking the suitcase and putting things into the hamper.
“Why are you doing that?”, Dayson asked. That’s something an Omega can handle, later.
Talia assumed that Dayson was eager to get to work, and as his assistant, she should accompany him.
“It will take only a minute.”, Talia said. “I will shower quickly and head to the study” Her voice trailed when Dayson hugged her from behind.
He buried his face in the crook of her neck and took a deep breath, allowing her sweet citrusy scent of freesia to fill up his system.
“I could also use a shower. How about we do it together?”
Talia’s cheeks ignited fiercely. She told herself to calm down. After all, she was with Dayson in a tub. Twice. A shower won’t be a big deal. Right?
Five minutes later
Talia realized how wrong she was. Sure, she took a bath with Dayson twice, but no matter how much they touched and kissed, the bubbly water provided some resemblance of decency by obstructing the clear view of their private parts, yet now in the shower, it was just the two of them, nude, with droplets falling on them and not providing any coverage.
Dayson was right there, at her arm’s reach, in his naked glory, and she fought mightily to look at his face and not at his erection.
Dayson could feel her shyness, anticipation, arousal, and he wanted to devour her right there, under the shower.
He wondered, would Talia be so reluctant if she knew how he feels about her? But really feel, without any doubts, through the mate bond.
He was aware that just telling her won’t do much because she probably won’t believe him.
Little by little, he was chipping away her insecurities and he hoped that soon she will realize how amazing she is and stand proudly all the time, and not only when she is fighting against injustice.
Dayson squeezed shower gel on the sponge and handed it to Talia. “Will you wash my back?”
Talia nodded in small jerky movements and grabbed the sponge.
With him turning his back on her, Talia exhaled the breath she was holding, and she washed him in circular movements while admiring the majestic landscape of his back.
Talia swallowed audibly when her eyes settled on his perfect ass. She was confident that if she drops a coin there, it will bounce a few times how firm it is.
Everything about Dayson was hard, other than his lips and hair. She confirmed that.
Talia remembered that at some point during the previous night she was holding onto that glorious ass while Dayson was thrusting into her.
She pressed her legs together while chiding herself silently. Why was she having those thoughts? Was she hoping it will happen again? Of course, she was, but she was too shy to admit that even to herself.
Dayson released a sharp breath and turned to face her flustered expression.
“You did good, kitten.”
Talia was surprised by this sudden compliment. “I was just washing your back.”
Dayson shook his head. “That was good also, but I was talking about our stay at the Lightclaw pack. I was impressed.”
“By what?”
“By everything.”
His intense gaze made her breathy.
Dayson took a step towards her, and Talia took a step back on an instinct.
He cocked an eyebrow. “Are you avoiding me, kitten? Should I leave?”
Dayson stepped back and Talia grabbed his hand. She didn’t want him to leave.
“I’m not avoiding you. It’s just I wasn’t expecting you to be this close.”
“But I want to come closer.”, Dayson said in a whiny voice. “Can I?”
Seeing her nod shyly, Dayson asked, “What else can I do?”
Her heart thundered in her throat, and she feared that it might jump out.
“Whatever you want.”, she said in a whisper as arousal swelled inside her.
Dayson hummed ambiguously. “I want you to continue washing me.”
Talia paused. She thought that he will want to kiss and touch her, yet he asked for a washing service. Was he teasing her or was that huge erection just for decoration?
Dayson took the shower gel and flicked the sponge out of her hand.
