Chapter ５３

I'm not sure how long I slept, but David's body moving as he stands up and proceeds to remove me out of the icy pool wakes me awake. I sigh, and David touches my face, instructing me to get out of the tub.

David somehow walks out of the tub, cradling me and without stumbling on the bathroom floor. It no longer hurts to open my eyes, and my shivering body keeps me awake.

I'm put on a bed, soaked. David lingers over me for a few seconds before standing up and walking around the bed to the other side.

Turning my head to observe David, I see him take off his soaked pants and half-wet shirt. I'm completely clothed, and he's just half-clothed.

David moves closer and grips my wrist as I reach for the bed's bedding edge. His huge fingers wrapped around my wrist, veins pressing against his skin, conjures scorching pictures in my imagination. But my body is too fatigued to replicate David kissing my moist neck and clutching my exposed breast.
