Malachi was taken aback by her offer, his eyes widening subtly. He understood that intimacy wasn't something Ravina easily shared, which made him feel cherished in a way, considering everything she had done for him without any expectations or demands. His body responded, stirring with desire to the memory of her lips around him. However, this was not the right time to be fully aroused as he prepared to disrobe. He didn't want her to assume that his thoughts were always driven by lust when she had simply offered to share a tender moment with him.

eaglesnov?1,сoМ Malachi glanced down at the bathtub, taking into account its size, and wondered if he would even fit.

Ravina seemed to sense his hesitation and offered a small, encouraging smile. "We can make it work," she assured him, pulling her legs up to her chest to make place. God, she was so small. "It might be a bit tight, but I'm sure it will be fine."

Malachi stood up, and as he removed his vest, revealing his broad shoulders and toned arms, he couldn't help but notice Ravina's shy gaze taking him in.

Then he proceeded to remove his pants, baring himself completely. He fought to maintain his composure, not wanting to overwhelm her with his arousal. He stole a glance at Ravina, noticing her cheeks flushed with warmth and the way she bit her lip, attempting to suppress her reaction. She quickly averted her gaze.

Oh well, what could he do? This was the state she put him in.

Her heart raced as he stepped into the tub, carefully lowering himself into the warm water but he couldn't find a comfortable position without his legs colliding with hers.

"Oh," she breathed, her voice soft and delicate, as she attempted to adjust her legs and help him find space. Despite their best efforts to avoid touching each other too intimately, the limited space within the tub seemed to work against them.

Malachi's leg brushed against the inside of Ravina's thigh, making her stiffen. She tried to readjust, but her calf unintentionally slid along his thigh instead, and when she moved it, it grazed the insides of his thighs. She stopped, realizing there was no way out, and her heart skipped a beat.

Malachi chuckled to ease the tension. "It's alright," he said as they sat with one leg between the other person's legs. The tub was so small, it left no room for movement without causing friction.

Malachi's legs were too long, and he bent the one between hers to avoid touching her most intimate area. His other legs stretched further and rested beside her bottom.

God! Malachi tried to control himself but the heat between her legs and the soft skin of her thighs enveloping his leg were too much to bear.

Her blue eyes found his, and he knew she was as aware of their bodies as he was. She was still trying to cause as little movement as possible. This was supposed to be relaxing and not tense, so he decided to make himself comfortable so she could relax.

He leaned back, ignoring that his movement caused friction between them. In fact, he craved more of it. He wanted her to rub herself all over him.

Ravina's body tensed when she felt the subtle shift in his position and the sensations it evoked. He was large, and his limbs were long and muscular. His skin was firm, brushing against her soft one so intimately. His other limb, pressed along the outside of her entire leg, and his ankle was resting beside her bottom.

What had she been thinking? Did she really think this was the way to relax? Her body was suddenly all alert, awake from the depths of exhaustion. Well, maybe it was what she needed; a distraction for a while. She was so tired from the nightmares and the tears and wanted to be away from that world for a while.

Malachi was a sight to see. His dark hair got wet at the ends, the steam caused his bronzed skin to glisten and glow and his muscular arms rested on the rim as he relaxed.

Malachi had been observing her too and when their eyes met, she could see the desire flickering in his gaze. She blushed, feeling self-conscious under his intense scrutiny. But then he smiled, a gentle and reassuring gesture that made her heart flutter.

"Relax," he said, his voice low and soothing.

He reached inside the tub, grabbing her leg that rested between his. He lifted it out of the water, his large hand easily wrapping around her ankle. Ravina felt her heart quicken as she watched, wondering what he planned to do.

Malachi began to massage her foot, his skilled fingers kneading the arch and heel with just the right amount of pressure. Ravina bit back a sigh, her muscles relaxing in his touch.

As he moved up, he grasped her calf and massaged her with his thumb in circular motions. Ravina leaned back, and her eyes fluttered shut as she surrendered to the pleasure of his touch.

He worked his way up her leg, the warmth of the water and the sensation of his touch sending shivers of delight through her body. His touch was both firm and gentle, and she couldn't help but be amazed at how he seemed to know exactly what she needed.

"Your skin is so soft," he murmured, his voice barely above a whisper.

He kneaded the soft flesh of her calf, massaging away all the tension until she felt like she was melting. Then he took her other leg and did the same.

"Does it feel good?" he asked.

"Yes," she breathed, her eyes still closed.

Ravina sank deeper into the warm water as Malachi's hands worked their way up her legs, the sensation causing her to forget about her nakedness and any other distractions. A soft moan escaped her lips as his fingers kneaded and stroked her skin, the steam from the bath adding to the already heated atmosphere.

His touch was like magic, sending waves of pleasure through her body with each caress. As his hands moved up her thighs, she felt a tingling heat spreading between her legs, and she couldn't help but bite her lip in anticipation.

"Come here," he suddenly spoke, taking her wrist.

Ravina was unsure of what he planned to do, but she allowed him to pull her over and settle her between his legs. Her body pressed against his, with her back nestled against his broad chest. She could feel his arousal, firm and insistent against the small of her back making heat pool to her core. The scent of his skin, the warmth radiating from his body, and the sound of his steady breaths filled her senses, making her acutely aware of their closeness.

She inhaled softly as his fingers found her shoulders, sliding up slowly with a seductive touch that made her heart race. His thumbs made small circular motions with just enough pressure to ease the tension in her muscles, eventually sliding up to her neck. Ravina's head rolled to give him access wherever he needed, her eyes closing in blissful surrender. She wanted more of his and his hands knowingly ventured down.

Malachi removed the hair from her back before massaging it. He traced his thumbs along her spine, causing her to arch slightly, and then massaged the muscles along each side, making her hunch forward again and enjoy his touch.

Once his hand came back up to her shoulder again, he guided her to lean back on him so he could get access to her torso. Ravina pressed her legs together as he stroked her hips and thighs, then went up again, his fingers tracing delicate patterns along her ribcage. Each caress sent a thrill through her, making her skin tingle and her breath catch in her throat. His touch was almost too gentle, teasing her with the promise of something more.

As he continued upwards, his fingers brushed ever so lightly against the curve of her breast, sending a jolt of electricity through her body. Her nipples stiffened as she awaited his touch, but he held back, only teasing her with the barest of touches, brushing past them to trace her collarbone before teasingly going down again.

Ravina arched into his touch, her eyes closed and her lips parted in anticipation. He brushed past them once more, causing her to whimper, then deliberately, he cupped her breasts, his fingers spreading over her flesh. Her head fell back on his shoulder with a soft moan, and he took the opportunity to kiss her neck, his lips warm and gentle against her skin.

Malachi's hands moved with a deft touch as they molded her breasts and teased her nipples into hard peaks. Her body jerked again, causing water to splash and spill as he tormented her.

His kisses moved up her jaw and along the side of her face, enticing her to kiss him. She tilted her head, looking over her shoulder to meet his lips.

As their lips met, it was like an explosion of pent-up desire. It was passionate and hungry, his tongue exploring every inch of her mouth with a fierce intensity.

As their lips finally parted, Ravina gasped for breath, her body trembling with desire. "Malachi," she breathed, desperate for more.

Malachi's gaze searched hers. A sudden determination crossed his face, and he rose from the tub, carrying her up with him.

"Oh," she gasped as gently swayed her over the rim and placed her on the floor. He was quick to reach for the towel and cover her right after she shivered, and then he pulled her into his arms to keep her warm.

She looked up at him, wondering about the sudden change.

"Ravina, I want you too," he said, his eyes locking with hers. "But let's wait just a few days. Until then, I don't want to leave you unsatisfied."

He guided her backward toward the bed, his voice dropped to a whisper. "Let me help you release some of that frustration."
