I gasp, my heart filling to the brim with love. “Seriously?”
“I would never lie to you. The moment I laid eyes on you, I knew you were special. I’m so fucking happy you’re mine. You deserve better than me, but I’m a selfish fuck. I’m never letting you go.”
“I’d never want you to. Promise me you will never even think about it.”
“I promise.”
I rest my forehead against his, reveling in the feeling of safety surrounding me.
“Want to take a shower with me?” Kai asks after a while.
“We probably should. You’re covered in blood and now so am I.”
“You might not want to hear it, but seeing you covered in blood is fucking sexy. Especially since I know it’s not yours. It makes you look like some sort of avenging angel.”
I scoff. “Well seeing you covered in blood when I know for a fact it is yours makes my heart hurt so maybe we let that fantasy go and clean you up.”
He smirks at me. “Whatever you want, babe.”
Standing from his lap, I help him up, leading him to the bathroom down the hall. Once inside, I turn on the water before turning back to Kai.
Slipping the borrowed shit off my skin, I drop it to the floor, his eyes never stray from my body, drinking me in.
“Fuck, you’re gorgeous,” he murmurs almost to himself as he takes in my bare breasts.
I let him get a look before pushing my sweats down my legs. Once I’m fully naked, I sway my hips as I approach him.
With his top half already bare, all I have left to strip him of is his jeans.
Flicking the button open, I slide them down his thighs, helping him step out of them. Once he’s fully naked, I grab his hand, stepping into the spray of the shower so he can step in behind me.
“Kenji said not to get the bandages wet, so let me wash you,” I tell him.
Taking a washcloth that was folded neatly in the corner of the shower, I wet it. I wring it out over his body, letting the water wash away the blood. I continue this process until I’m satisfied.
Then I grab the soap, lathering up my hands.
I wash every inch of his body carefully with my hands then I repeat the process with the washcloth once most of the blood is washed away,
When I wash his hair, he offers me a weak smile, but I can see the fatigue and pain setting in. I quickly wash myself as he sits on the bench.
“Come on, let’s get out,” I tell him as I shut off the water.
Kai steps out first and sits down on the closed toilet. Grabbing a towel from the wrack I dry him as best as I can.
“You take such good care of me,” he says against the skin of my stomach as he kisses my body.
“Why don’t you go lie down. I’ll see if I can find anything to help with the pain.”
He grunts. “There should be pain killers in the first aid kit.”
I nod, wrapping myself in the towel. I smile to myself when Kai walks out of the bathroom, buck ass naked heading to a bedroom down the hall.
I hold the towel to my body, making my way back to the kitchen. I find the bottle of pills, grab a water, and make my way back to him.
Standing in the doorway, my heart clenches.
There, lying across the bed is my big, strong man looking like he is in so much pain.
