Chapter 29 Cursed

• Cayden gently placed her under the spray that had warmed to a bearable temperature, Selena stood there in a daze as he stripped off his black tee and slacks, revealing his barely concealed package in black briefs. She would have been smitten by his perfect body in so little clothing if she weren't going crazy. However, she was going crazy, so she didn't experience anything sexual. He followed into the bathroom, where he supported her body with his. She rested her weary head on his shoulder, her eyes averted lest he reverts to monster mode and punished her once more.
• So exhausted, she could hardly move.
• She felt him pressing closer to her, but there was nothing sexual in his touch. She relaxed, closing her eyes to take in the warmth from his body and the soothing sensation of the water. She heard the pop of the shampoo bottle, and then he reached for her hair and began a slow massage of her scalp. Trying to slow her racing heart, she inhaled the shampoo's rosy aroma. She was still burning, despite being under the shower. Her body burned.
