After taking a shower alone, needing my thoughts to settle and to regain my self-control, I rejoined Mia in the bathroom.She showered off the seawater. Her gaze met mine and quickly slipped away, her shyness endearing. She looked ethereal beneath that heavy downpour, her nakedness clouded in a veil of steam.This self-denial was a punishment in its purist form.From the way she turned away she too felt this unnerving chemistry between us. We were lightning in a bottle, the freeing of which threatened to change us irrevocably. We’d smash the worlds we’d come from and forge a new one together. Holding off on touching her, I merely watched and waited, delaying the pleasure of our impending session.The white bathroom tile, hardwood floors, and luxury tub in the center had all been picked out personally by me when I’d decorated this place for her way back when she had no idea I owned this condo. Other than Richard, no one else knew Mia was here. We were assured privacy for as long as we wanted it.
