Secrets of Us A Forbidden Love Romance (Alina)

Chapter 138

Feel Wanted

I push the door to Jake's room open, expecting to find him waiting. Standing by the door, or even by his bed.

But the room is empty. Frowning, I step inside and look around, wondering where he's gone. I hear the sound of running water and make my way toward the master bathroom.

My feet are soft against the floor and anticipation lights my body at the thought of showering with Jake.

Of touching him.

of finally not letting my mind run like crazy.

As I step inside the bathroom, I see Jake standing beside the tub, filling it with water. My stomach coils. He's shirtless, wearing only a pair of sweatpants that fit him so perfectly.

He runs his hand beneath the water, checking the temperature.

He doesn't see me yet, so I take advantage, leaning against the doorframe to watch for a moment. My heart flutters at the sight of him.

He makes me feel like this is home. It's so domestic, like the sight of him making

breakfast.

The way he moves, the muscles in his back shifting as he works, makes me way too aware of the fact that I haven't had sex in days.

He must hear my soft breathing because he turns, offering me a smile that makes my insides tighten with heat and want.

"I thought I'd help you relax," he says, his voice low.

I nod, swallowing because this is doing everything except making me relax. "After everything that's happened. You've had a lot to deal with these past days." His words are reminders, and I have to breathe slowly, reminding myself that it's okay. That I want to live in the moment and not the past that haunts me day in and day out.
