Chapter 102: Have My Body

[Flashback continues.]

What was supposed to be a peaceful bath became four more rounds of pleasure. By the time they were done, another bath was drawn. This time, it was actually meant for cleaning. 

Lina had been limp with exhaustion. All she wanted to do was sleep or perhaps eat, but knew she couldn't. 

Lina had to properly greet her in-laws. Still, Kade had been surprisingly attentive. He helped clean her hair, massaged her body and scalp, then proceeded to wash away the soap. He was as gentle as a husband should be, but with a sense of playfulness.

"You won't be able to kneel," Kade said, stepping out of the bathtub. 

Water dripped onto the floor and down his toned body.

"I can kneel," Lina stubbornly responded, trying hard not to be distracted by his perfect, muscular frame.

Kade wrapped a towel around his waist. At her words, he quirked a brow. Before she could get out, he gripped the edge of the metal tub.
