A Man of His Word

** Eli **

It wasn't until Harper went to the bathroom to clean up, leaving Eli alone on the bed with tiny residual shudders still pulsing through him, that he finally started coming back to his senses and fully processed what had just happened.

The scent of both of them was still hanging thick in the air, and the image and taste of her climax blended in with the feeling of his own, fitting together into a scene that was … too lascivious to think back on, even with his body drifting lazily in the calm peace after coming down from the high.

Eli drew in a deep breath. With the clarity that slowly trickled back to his head, he was starting to wonder if he might've let things get a little too far. The boundary to their arrangement was blurry, but even in the most liberal interpretation, he'd have to admit that tonight had gone … just a bit out of control. Too physical, too personal, for something intended as simply "a lesson".
