I wake up in Kings arms. Hes sleeping with a satisfied grin on his face, though Im anything but satisfied. I take a few minutes to stare at him, memorizing each line on his face. Groggily, I finally stumble to the shower and climb into cold water to help me wake up. Ms. Beast doesnt mind and lets me know by humming inside me. Shes a fickle beast. The bathroom door opens and King peeks into my morning sanctuary.
Need your back washed? he offers.
My eyes flash and desire rolls through me. If thats all youre coming in for, dont bother, I answer grumpily.
