I couldn’t stop my eyes from traveling the length of his body.

I remembered that he was well-built from the time I helped him back at Archeron, but this was the first time I’d seen him without any clothes except the towel around his waist. He was still wet from his shower, his hair dripping and emphasizing the gorgeous features of his face.

There was a look of concern in his eyes, a softness in such contrast with the hard lines and planes of his body. My throat went dry as an intense wave of desire pounded through me.

“Are you okay?” he asked, taking a step towards me.

I couldn’t even remember what I’d come to find him for. My mind was a blank wasteland of nothing but the image of Alfred standing there half-naked. I felt my face heat up and turned around, immediately running to my neighboring bedroom.

He called after me, but I shut the door behind me, my heart pounding like a drum.
