“How?” She barked, folding her hands over her chest, her tight stomach muscles flexing under the movement making my dick spasm under the sheets. The idea of doing filthy things to her just so she could shower again crossed my mind.

“What is that?!” She roared, grabbing the footboard, her eyes glowering with the lust I felt swimming in my groin. “Will you stop whatever that is!” She growled at Kane, making him chuckle and nod at me.

“That was not me that time!” He laughed. Her face twisted into confusion as she looked at me; I watched with amusement as her eyes lowered to the mark that sat on my n*eck.
