GoodReadHaving finished tending to her back, Alexander moved to position himself in front of her, pulling a stool beneath
him to sit. He took her hand in his, his touch gentle as he wiped her arms.
Looking up, he was met with the sight of her face, flushed a deep red that extended to the base of her neck.
Quinn averted her gaze, her eyes finding refuge in the corner of the bathroom as her body tensed. Despite the
bond of matrimony that they shared, she still found herself blushing at the intimacy of certain moments.
In the past, Alexander had often assisted her with her baths, seemingly taking pleasure in the act. Yet, these
instances often led to other, more intimate activities.
Alexander reached out, turning her face towards him, compelling her to meet his gaze. Quinn's eyelashes
fluttered, her gaze skittish and evasive as soon as their eyes locked. He handed her a towel, his voice a soft
whisper, "Clean yourself up."
A moment of hesitation passed over Quinn as she glanced at him, but he showed no signs of leaving. A wave of
uncertainty washed over her, leaving her conflicted about what to do with the towel now in her possession.
"Should | help you clean up?"
Quinn shook her head rapidly, biting her lip as she began to wipe her arms and neck with the towel. The
overhead light was glaring, casting a harsh spotlight on Quinn's body, making her wish she could simply vanish.

However, when Quinn extended her hand to take it, he pulled away. He reached out, his hand coming to rest on
the back of Quinn's head, leaning in close to her.
His whisper was barely audible, "You're too slow. I'll help you. Otherwise, you'll catch a cold." His words were
punctuated by a soft brush of his lips against hers.
Quinn found herself staring at the man's face, mere inches from her own, her gaze flickering, her fingers slowly
clenching. Steam began to fill the bathroom, the figures of the two gradually becoming obscured in the mist.
After half an hour, Alexander emerged from the bathroom, wrapping Quinn in a towel before carrying her out.
Quinn buried her face in his chest, her ears a bright red that was visible when she lowered her head. He laid her
on the bed, tucking her in with the blanket before heading to the bathroom himself.
Quinn peeked out from beneath the covers, her gaze directed towards the bathroom.
