Despite his intense gaze on my breasts, he did not end up touching them. His hand dipped down and then he hooked his fingers into the elastic waist of my panties before pulling it down my leg in one smooth motion. I smiled a little at him before I stepped out of my panties.
“Your hand, My Lady,” Reiner said teasingly as he offered me a hand.
“Escorting a naked princess to her bath?” I teased him back.
I giggled a little as I placed my hand into his much larger one. The warmth of his hand enveloped mine for a moment as he led me towards the bathtub and supported me as I got in. The sensation of the warm water against my skin as I sat down into the tub filled me with endless bliss. The smell of roses felt stronger as it filled my senses and made me smile. I closed my eyes and sighed in pleasure as I relaxed in tub. I could feel Reiner silently watching me as I enjoyed myself and I couldn’t help but wonder what he was waiting for.
“You’re not going to get in with me?” I asked with a hint of disappointment after I opened my eyes to look up at him.
I truly thought that we would get in together and I was truly looking forward to it.
“Do you want me to?” Reiner asked as if he was truly clueless to my desires.
“Just get in…” I demanded clearly.
Reiner just nodded before his hands moved to remove his clothes from his body. First, he removed his shirt, and I watched his ripped torso as he lifted the shirt above his head before letting it fall to the ground at his feet. I loved his body and everything about it. The way his muscles flexed and relaxed gracefully when he moved. The way the tattoo on his arm seemed to come to life when he moved.
When he was completely naked, Reiner finally climbed into the bath with me. After moving my body to give him room, Reiner helped position my body so that I sat with my back against his naked chest. His strong arms wrapped naturally around my waist as he held me close.
“Let me massage your back for you…” Reiner offered as he pushed me up a little into a sitting position.
“Ahhh…” I moaned softly at the sensation of his warm hand against my back.
His touch was so gentle as he massaged my back. Since I had been working for many hours on the report, my neck and back muscles must have gotten stiff from sitting in front of the computer. Reiner’s skillful hands slowly helped my muscles to relax while I whimpered softly from bliss.
“Do they teach men how to be such caring husbands on this island?” I asked softly with my eyes still closed.
Reiner’s hand paused for a split of a second before he continued with his massage of my back. I could sense that my question surprised him and that he was entertained by it.
“Can you teach someone something like that?” Reiner asked in response.
“Probably not…but you seem so good at it, and I have no idea where you got this kind of skills from,” I replied.
“What kind of skills?” Reiner asked in wonder.
“Like…drying a girl’s hair. Doing her nails…massaging her back when she’s tired…baking delicious cakes…” I gave him some solid examples.
Of course, there were endless other things that he could do that didn’t quite fit with his image and his main profession. I didn’t know that much about agents, and I didn’t want to be stereotypical or biased, but honestly, how many agents could bake cakes and do their girl’s nails?
“Is it really that big of a deal?” he asked casually as his hands continued to work magic on my back.
“Do you think that it’s normal?” I asked in disbelief at his unaffected attitude.
“For my job, I’ve picked up many skills so there’s many things that I can do. Baking and cooking were something that I picked up while training to be a professional butler along with other skills,” Reiner explained.
“What about the other skills that I mentioned?” I asked with intense interest.
“Those, I picked up because of Queen,” Reiner replied flatly.
“Queen?” I said questioningly, unable to hide my surprise.
She made him learn those things? Really?
“Well, she doesn’t like talking about it so don’t tell her that I told you. The reason why I’m an only child is because Queen had some…complications after having me. After that, it became unsafe for her to have another child, so she was basically stuck with me,” Reiner said passively.
“Oh, I didn’t know that…I’m sorry…” I mumbled softly at his sad story.
“It’s not your fault so I don’t know why you’re apologizing. Anyways, unlike my father who wanted a son more than anything, Queen always wanted a little girl. She had hoped that after me, she could try for another child but that wasn’t possible. As a result of that…” Reiner continued with his story.
“Did she dress you up as a girl when you were a kid? Are there photos?!” I asked after turning around to face him in my excitement.
If there are photos, I’ve got to see them no matter what!
“…I have no idea how you jumped to the conclusion that she dressed her son up as a girl…” Reiner muttered as he stared back at me with narrowed eyes.
“Oh…you mean, she didn’t?” I said with utmost disappointment.
It felt like the truth had just broken my heart and I was so hurt and disappointed. Reiner rolled his eyes at me in pure irritation.
“Why do you have to look so disappointed?” Reiner asked with clear annoyance in his voice.
“Because I wanted to see those photos…obviously…” I replied before I folded my arms under my breasts and pouted at him.
Reiner just shook his head at me as he raised his eyebrows as if he couldn’t take the ridiculousness of my imagination.
“So…what happened?” I asked for him to continue on with his story.
“Turn around. I’ll tell you the rest while I massage your back,” Reiner said gently as his large hand helped turn my body back around.
