Jesse's POV
When we teleported back into Lillian's room, she became unsteady the moment I let go of her and swayed before passing out.
I caught her before she could fall.
The day had been eventful, I'm sure she's exhausted.
I pulled back her covers and set her gently on the bed.
I pulled her covers back up.
I looked at the chair in the corner, it seemed awfully far away from her.
I felt the need to be near her. I rested my suit jacket, vest, and tie on the chair, unbuttoned a few buttons on my dress shirt, kicked off my shoes, and took off my belt.
I hope she didn't mind me sleeping on the same bed as her. I laid on top of the covers. She stirred as I settled on the bed moving closer to me. She stirred again until her head rested on my chest. I stiffened. This was not what I expected.
She seemed content now and was no longer restless.
I slowly relaxed, draping my arm around her.
I inhaled, taking in her amazing scent.
Shit!
Unexpectedly my body enjoyed it a little too much.
I had an instant hard-on.
Please go down, please go down.
I don't want her to think I'm being a creep if she wakes up.
Despite my plans to just sleep things have gotten out of hand very quickly.
Carefully and slowly, I slid from beneath her.
I mind-linked a few members of the battalion to guard the door, left a shadow guard in the room, grabbed my clothes from the chair, and teleported to my room.
Once in my room I decided to take a cold shower.
I stood under the ice cold shower hoping to shock my body out of the sexual frustration.
It did not work.
"Joel."
"What's up man?"
"I'm experiencing some technical difficulties. Can you watch the Princess for a few hours?"
"Technical difficulties? What the hell are you a computer? What does that mean?"
"Just watch the Princess you ass."
"Okay, okay," Joel said laughing.
After finishing my cold shower.
I decided to just ignore my erection and lie in bed.
The pack ritual and Coven ceremony honestly took a toll on me as well.
I very much hated being a guy right now.
I couldn't be around Lillian until I got rid of my boner.
I didn't want Lillian to feel pressured for sex after what she went through.
Actually thinking about what she shared with me, I need to talk with Kaden and know exactly what happened to that slimy step-dad of hers.
If he wasn't dead, he was going to be.
I know I didn't know she was my mate at the time, but he still owed me a debt in blood if he was still breathing.
Thinking about that monster Lillian had to deal with definitely got rid of my boner.
