44 Chapter 39: Shower Thoughts???

As the first light of dawn began to filter through the curtains, Grim's eyes fluttered open.

Directly in front of him was Jessica's face, peaceful in sleep.

Grim felt a movement on his other side. Turning his head, he saw Felicia beginning to stir.

In the soft morning light, her beauty was undeniable. While Jessica's allure was more grounded and Valeria's more cute, Felicia exuded a seductive elegance that was unique to her.

Her eyes slowly opened, meeting Grim's gaze. For a moment, there was a silent acknowledgement of the previous night's events before Felicia greeted him with a soft, "Morning."

Grim started to sit up, intending to take a shower, but Felicia gently pushed his head back down. "Not yet. Five more minutes," she murmured, snuggling closer to him.

Then, unexpectedly, she shifted her position, straddling Grim's waist and flipping her hair to the side. She leaned down and kissed him.

Grim, caught off guard, hesitated for a moment before responding. Breaking the kiss, he asked, "I thought last night was just a drunken mistake?"

Felicia looked down at him, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "It was, and I'm still a bit drunk," she admitted, before resuming the kiss. Grim's hands found their way to her waist, holding her gently as they kissed.

After a few minutes, they parted. Felicia stood up, looking down at Grim with a softness in her eyes. "I really do sleep better with you around," she confessed before slipping out of bed.

"Im going to go take a shower, will you join me..." Felicia suddenly asked as she bent over grabbing a towel from her bag along with some other items.

Grim pondered for a moment remembering that Jessica had asked him a similar question before answering." It's fine, the shower isn't big so..."

Before he could continue however, Felicia had approached him with a look of annoyance, she layed a knee on the bed before lowering herself while resting her hand on his chest.

"I won't ask again Grim, you really are oblivious to a woman's ques, at this rate you'll never find a lover...now will you join me in the bath." She didn't let him answer straight away as she stood up from the bed once again and left the room.

Grim only took a few seconds to comprehend what Felicia had meant before looking at the door.

But when he heard her sigh, Grim took that as his cue to get up and head for the shower.

....

(The shower...)

It took a bit to untangle himself from Jessica's grabby little mitts. Seriously that woman had the arm strength of a cracked-up gorilla.

But eventually, he did escape and made his way to the bathroom, where he could already hear running water.

He knocked three times before Felicia told him to come in. The bath was steamy with condensation and steam already fogging up the mirror.

Grim only needed to take off his trousers and boxers which he did.

He then looked over to the glass shower, where he saw a blurry figure washing her hair under the overhead shower head installed on the roof.

"What are you waiting for...get in. The waters a perfect temperature." She said eyeing Grim through the glass.

"Sure, just hold on." Grim wasn't in a hurry to enter, as he put his towel on the rack, and then quickly brushed his teeth.

His breath was now minty fresh. He was ready for a shower.

He opened the door and for a brief second, he paused to look over Felicia. Her head was tilted back, as she washed her long silver hair that was now sticking to her back.

Her hand gently glided over her Lithe body, it was like a piece of art, her skin was pale but not so much that you would think she was a vampire.

She held her breasts, they were as perky and well-shaped as he remembered, it really was surprising how well-kept her body was considering her age.

Felicia meanwhile also opened her eyes and noticed Grim eying her body. Though she had no outward reaction, she felt smug on the inside.

She still didn't forget the comments Grim had made about her age or his type. But seeing his reaction to her body, made all the still lingering bad feelings wash away.

'He really is...fuck just looking at it is getting me in the mood, plus I can't even remember the last time I was intimate with a man. Well I guess I can, it was with my husband, and that was over a decade ago.'

She only now just realised how long it had been since she had any real intimacy with a man, though, in her younger days, she probably would have pounced on Grim the moment he entered the shower...

That was her younger self, not the one she was now. She had grown up, had kids, found love, and then found out that love didn't even last 5 years before it fizzled away.

"..."

Grim closed the door behind him. And suddenly felt Felicia's hand his back, he turned around and saw a flushed and enamoured look on her face.

Falicia looked up at him." Not bad for a woman my age huh!!" She said teasingly but Grim's response surprised her.

"No, I'm surprised, how good of a figure you have, you must work out and do a lot of flexibility exercises." He said thoughtfully.

"Pfttt, haha, thanks for the compliment, despite my hectic schedule I try to go to the gym at least 3 times a week, and Yoga once."

Grim nodded but then Felicia spoke again." Now, let's get back to where we were before shall we..." She said as her arms curled around his neck, though the height difference made it difficult to reach without her going on her tiptoes.

Grim wanted to hold her up so it would be easier but hesitated, and seeing his hesitation Felicia whispered." It's okay, you can touch me however you feel appropriate...but let's just stick to kissing and touching."

She said and Grim was fine with that, as he stopped hesitating and grabbed her wet thighs before pulling her up, Felicia wrapped her legs around his waist, while letting out a hot breath directly on his neck.

She felt his hands tighten around her legs and she loved every bit of it, especially when he adjusted...lifting her up in the air and finally resting his hands on her well-rounded ass.

Grim then took her lips, being the one to initiate first this time.

Felicia let out a cute pur between kisses, before the two got so absorbed that they ended up staying in the bath for over twenty minutes.

Though they didn't have sex, that was fine with Felicia, she really didn't want to rush into anything.

Moreover, it showed her that Grim could control himself, and was nothing but respectful throughout their little love session.

....

After refreshing themselves in the shower, he moved to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

The aroma of food filled the apartment, eventually rousing Jessica from her slumber.

She stumbled into the living room, her hair tousled and her appearance half-dressed, exuding a rugged charm. "What's cooking?" she mumbled, rubbing her eyes.

"Just some breakfast. Thought we could use a good start to the day," Grim replied, serving up the meal.

As they ate, Felicia joined them, explaining that she had to leave early for her case but promised to return later that evening.

Before leaving, she handed Grim a set of documents – his new identity.

"See you tonight," Felicia said with a smile, then departed, leaving Grim and Jessica alone.

With no immediate leads on their case, Jessica suggested they watch a TV series. "Ever heard of 'Avatar'? It's a classic," she said, her enthusiasm evident.

Grim shook his head. "Never had the chance to watch much TV."

"Well, you're in for a treat," Jessica assured him, settling in to start the series.

As they watched, Grim found himself drawn into the world of 'Avatar,' its story and characters captivating him.

Jessica provided commentary and trivia, her passion for the show was quite infectious.
