Chapter 389 She Liked His Body
When Donovan came out, Chloe went into the bathroom to freshen up. This house had never had a man living in it before. The bathroom was still steamy from Donovan's shower, and the scent of his shampoo and body wash lingered. His damp towel hung on the rack.
Chloe hadn't planned on showering, but she did anyway. Under the warm water, she thought of Donovan wrapped in a towel earlier, and her body trembled. The warm shower helped calm her down.
After her shower, Chloe put on her pajamas and walked out. Donovan was already in bed, eyes closed, hands behind his head. He opened his eyes at the sound of her footsteps and saw her wet hair.
"You don't blow-dry your hair?" he asked.
"Nah, it's a hassle," Chloe replied, her face still flushed from the shower. She wiped her hair with a towel and draped it over her shoulder. Instead of getting into bed, she pulled down the bed curtain, covering the entire bed.
Donovan hadn't noticed the curtain before. "What's this?" he asked.
"It's for mosquitoes, even in winter. And it makes me feel safe. I had one in my dorm," Chloe explained.
"Why didn't you have one when you lived with me?" Donovan asked.
"That was your house. It would've looked weird. This place isn't fancy, but it's mine," Chloe said, getting into bed.
The bed was only five feet wide, smaller than any bed Donovan had, and there was just one blanket. They ended up quite close. Chloe's foot accidentally touched Donovan's leg, and she quickly pulled it back.
"Stop pretending to be innocent," he said.
Indeed, Chloe felt it was unnecessary to pretend. Maybe it had been too long since they last saw each other. His body felt like a fireball, and when her foot touched him, she felt like she was going to burn up.
She liked his body, despite the grudges she held. Chloe leaned against the headboard, reading a book.
"Now you're the one reading?" Donovan asked, eyes still closed.
"I have a small exam coming up. Just doing some last-minute studying. When will you let me see Francis?" Chloe asked.
"Tomorrow at ten in the morning. He'll be awake then."
"Don't forget," Chloe reminded him.
"I know."
In the small, enclosed space, his breathing felt like it could burn her. "It's so cold," Chloe said. They were sharing one blanket, and the middle couldn't be covered, letting the wind in. Just as Chloe was about to adjust the blanket, Donovan quickly hugged her. Chloe instantly felt warm, her breathing quickened.
"No way!" Chloe frowned. "No condom."
She remembered the news about him and Janet, and it made her concerned. "No condom? Who are you kidding?" Donovan glanced to the side. Chloe saw the box of condoms Wade had given her.
"You went through my stuff?" Chloe asked.
"It's so obvious. I don't even need to search for it."
Their eyes met, and Chloe felt desire boiling over. Just then, Donovan's phone rang with a video call. He didn't want to answer, but Chloe saw it was Maya.
"Answer it!" Chloe was afraid something had happened to Francis.
"No!"
"Answer it!"
