Chapter 14

Bella found herself in a rather large tiled room that looked more like a spa than a bath. There was a door leading into a sauna on the far end, along with a locker room and a row of showers that were completely open, lacking walls or partitions. She hoped that no one else would be using the room.

The door swung open, and to her relief, it was just Darian. He had a towel and what appeared to be a robe draped over his shoulder. In his hands, he held a black T-shirt identical to the one Bella was wearing.

“Here’s a clean shirt, too,” he said, handing her the pile.

“I really appreciate it,” Bella told him. “Uh, about the shirt you gave me last night. Was it the one you were wearing before?”

Darian grinned. “Well, you were sleeping in Victor’s bed. I had to give you something of mine, too.”

Bella couldn’t help but laugh. “Is that some sort of Dom thing? Marking your territory?”

“Nah,” he replied. “Not really. Need anything else?”
