Off Limits(131)

I stood still while Alix pulled my shorts and underwear off, surprised when my half erect cock bobbed out. “Well now, hello to you, too. Been a while.”

“And I have a beautiful woman touching me and on her knees in front of me,” I reminded her. “It’s kind of natural that way.”

Alix looked up at me, then in an unexpected move, leaned forward and kissed the tip of my cock. “First a bath, and then I’ll be happy to serve you and relieve all your tensions,” she purred, her voice and touch causing my cock to twitch again. “But in the meantime, let me help you get clean.”

I let Alix help me into the bathtub, hissing in pleasure as the warm water tingled over my skin. I sighed as I laid back, stretching out. “Thank you,” I said. Alix stayed next to me, uncurling her legs to sit on the tile. “You’re the perfect woman.”

“Not perfect, but thank you,” she said, taking my hand and kissing it. “I’ve worried so much over the past few days.”

“Well, for the next hour at least, let go of the worries. We can handle them together later,” I said, stroking her cheek with my thumb again. “Actually, I had an idea.”

“Oh?” Alix asked, reaching for a washcloth. The hotel used liquid soaps, so she dunked the cloth in the water and squeezed it out before pumping a dollop in. “Tell me about it while I wash you.”

“You don’t need to do that,” I said as she worked up a lather.

“I don’t, but I want to. Unless you say no, please let me.”

Alix’s touch through the warm cloth was magic on my muscles, and I leaned back, sighing in pleasure. “As you wish, Princess.”

She started with my chest, using her hands to cup water over my skin before running the soapy cloth over my tired chest. She carefully avoided my wound, and then went to work on my shoulders and arms. “You had an idea, Kade?”

“I was thinking, after I recover a bit, there’s a very special thing that I want to get.”

“Oh?” she asked, reaching into the water before pulling back. Her shirt was getting soaked, so with little ceremony she pulled her blouse over her head, leaving her upper body bare except for the lacy bra she was wearing. “It’s one from home. What do you think?”

“I think it looks beautiful on you,” I said, admiring the emerald green, lacy cups. I could see the beginnings of her pink areolae through the top half-inch of lace.

Alix smiled and reached into the tub, lifting my right leg and working the washcloth over my calf and lower leg. “So . . . something special?”

“Yeah,” I said, gathering my thoughts after being distracted by the sight of her creamy cleavage. “I was thinking we could go to a jeweler.”

Alix looked up at me and smiled. “So you were serious when you said you wanted to marry me? It wasn’t just because we were naked and in the middle of sex?”

I rolled my eyes at her teasing. “I think you know me well enough to know that I have enough control of myself to not do that. Alix, I’m serious. I do want to marry you.”

“I want to marry you too,” Alix said, setting my right leg down and starting on my left. “But not here in California. After this thing with Sydney is over, the only time I want to come back here is to see Mom if she lets me, and my new baby sister or brother.”

I accepted her answer and sat back, relishing the feeling of Alix’s hand running over my body. She soon finished my legs and came back to my chest, leaving the cloth on the side of the tub to rub directly with her hands. “Kade.”

“Alix,” I said, looking up at her. A blond angel, her eyes filled with worry, love, desire, and more. “Hmm . . . Alix Prescott. Sounds nice.”

“I thought we could go with Kade Nova,” she teased, “Just to let everyone know who’s in charge in our relationship.”

I laughed and closed my eyes, relaxing in the feel of Alix’s hands running over my skin. She worked lower to my stomach, carefully stroking the edges of the wound, probably to work loose any last bits of scab that were stuck to the skin.

Alix’s right hand found my cock, and she wrapped her fingers around the mostly hard shaft. “What are you doing?” I asked, smiling through closed eyes as she started pumping slowly. “I thought you were waiting until after the bath, Princess.”

“I said after you were clean. Now I’m going to take care of all your needs.”

I groaned as Alix stroked my cock in her hand. Perhaps because of the pain of the past few days, maybe because of the fact that Alix was nearby in such a sexy state of half-undress, maybe just because I’m half-crazy, either through love or my natural inherent nature, but I needed her touch at that moment. I was hard as a rock, and the light pain in my ribs just added to my desire. “Alix . . . ”

Her hand squeezed and stroked, the water splashing lightly as she pumped my cock in her fist. “Kade, I love you. More than life itself,” she said, her hand speeding up. My hips lifted out of the water, trying to follow the maniacal pleasure of her strokes before falling back, trying to thrust into her soft, heavenly hand. “I want you to do something for me.”

“What?” I said, half opening my eyes to watch Alix’s intent face. She was alternating her eyes from my cock to my face, then back to my cock.

“There are so many things I’ve never done,” she said, half smiling as she saw that I was looking at her. “No man, even the silver-tongued ones, were able to talk me into them. I want to go to all those places with you. My body, my mind, my soul and my heart are yours. I’m going to do a first right now,” she said. Reaching across her body, she pulled the plug of the tub, letting water out until my entire cock was out of the water. Getting higher onto her knees, she bent over, her stomach pressed against the porcelain edge, and looked up at me. “In my mouth.”
