238 Sweet Torture

CHAPTER 238 

All through the ordeal, he had his eyes on her face, watching as she took in his body as though it was the first time she was doing this and seeing him.

Speaking of first time, his thoughts travelled back to the first time she had helped him remove his shirt to clean his body and help lower his body temperature.

Back then Astrid had done it really slowly, much more slower than this…it was a sweet torture for him back then. This time around even though she was faster, it still felt as slow as the last time.

By the time his shirt was off, leaving his upper body bare before her, Jareth finally let his eyes drop close for good this time. He didn't want her to see the pain well up in his eyes while she healed him.

Astrid could sense his pain and the tension building in his chest as she felt them tighten while waiting for her sweet torture.
