Chương 53: +Chapter 53+

Caspian carefully dried his hair and body before putting a robe on, stalling for as long as he could in the bathroom.

He had even cleaned up his soggy clothes in the shower, Asher's rings safely on the granite counter.

It wasn't fear that kept him in the bathroom, maybe a bit of nervousness but he mostly felt anticipation.

Caspian finally took a step out of the bathroom, hesitating slightly when he instantly caught Asher's attention.

The Alpha was seated by the fireplace, his wet hair damp. He watched him intently, taking him in.

Caspian self-consciously walked up to the seating area to find that Asher had been waiting for him so that they could eat together.

He expected the Alpha to make him sit beside or even on him but Asher seemed content to just watch him.

His heated stare made Caspian's skin burn, sitting opposite Asher. He wasn't brave enough to sit closer to the Alpha like he wanted to.
