---- Ihad a dragon tattooed on my skin! The blue dragon was constantly moving on my skin, but I couldn't feel it. Reaching out, I pressed my fingers to it and shivered. It was on the same shoulder Lucas had bitten me, but there was no sign of his bite marks. "T told you it's a little more complicated ," Nate said softly behind me. My eyes locked with his for a few seconds and then dropped to my shoulder again.
"?ll go put an order in for our food and then join you." He hesitated for a few seconds and then hurried out of the bathroom. With a lingering look at my shoulder , I spun around and slowly made my way to the tub. Pushing my panties down my legs, I pressed a hand to the wall and carefully placed a foot into the water. Ahiss fell from my lips. The water was a touch too hot, but I sank down into it. Nate appeared a few seconds later and hesitated next to the bathtub.

His eyes locked with mine in question. I gave him a small smile which seemed to be exactly what he was waiting for. Instead of getting in with me, he knelt next to the tub and reached for the soap and a washcloth. He said ---- nothing as he washed me. "Do you want me to wash your hair?" "T need to brush it first," I told him. Standing , he grabbed a brush from the drawer and then settled next to the bath again. "Turn with your back to me," he ordered softly.

"But we also didn't want to tell you that you're our mate because we weren't sure if things will work...as it should because you're human." "How are things supposed to work?" I asked him. Nate ran the brush through my hair one more time and then gripped my shoulders. He gave them a squeeze and then slowly slipped a hand down my arm, fingers tracing the tattoo.
