"Ridge, wait..."
Calm the fuck down, I scold my erection. I pause with my hand on the doorknob. "Yeah?"
Neen nibbles on her lip and glances at the tub, then back at me. "Would you help me?"
Fuck’s sake. I'm trying to be a gentleman. "Of—" I clear my throat. "Of course." Stepping back over the threshold, I close the door, leaving me and Nina in a very warm, very romantic space.
"I don't want to fall," she whispers, staring up at me with her long lashes.
I shake my head. "Never."
Silently I reach for the hem of her sweatshirt and pull it over Nina's head. I've seen her naked once, and this time when her rosy nipples harden in my line of sight, my mouth waters just like before.
"Beautiful," I murmur and dip my fingers into the waistband of her shorts. Tugging those down, I follow them until I'm in a crouch. Like the sweet girl she is, Nina puts her hands on my shoulders without me having to ask. I lift her feet as I peel her panties and shorts away.
My lips tingle as I push them across her dainty little ankles.God, she's so pretty.
"Ridge."
I hum not really listening as I continue to pepper her feet and ankles with love. She laughs and wiggles her toes until they bump my glasses. Normally that would snap me out ofmy haze considering glasses might be the most overstimulating thing in the entire fucking world—behind the dog, Willow—but it doesn't. I’m completely lost in my woman right now and I'm only touching her feet.
"Ridge," she squeals quietly. "My bath is going to get cold and Ireallywant to enjoy it."
Cursing internally, I look up and I swear I choke. Nina's completely naked standing above me looking like a goddamn goddess. Or a queen. Honestly, I'll stay on my knees for the rest of my life if it meant worshipping at her feet.
Grabbing her hips with my hands, I stand and drop a kiss to her right shoulder. "Come on then. Let's get you cozy."
I hold her hand as she lowers herself into the water. Her sigh, while it does make me feel like I'm going to come in my pants, makes me feel like a king.
A king is only as happy as his queen. So when Nina asks me to stay and read to her because her head hurts, you bet your ass I do.
I'll read to her forever...on my knees...kissing her toes. Anything. Because all of her is everything I've dreamed of.
