Chapter 195: Tub and talk time
Maxwell shifted, his body rubbing against Andrew’s and the water sloshing slightly. He sighed, adjusting against him, listening to his heartbeat beneath his ear.
This was nice.
After the day that they had, which had started off warm and light because Maxwell knew that Andrew was going to need it, and then how deep and hard it had been, getting to sit in the bath like this, pressed against Andrew’s body really helped soothe him.
Feeling Andrew’s hard length against his ass was also a nice little gift for him as well. Well, not little, more like a huge reward, but he could save that for later. For now, it was about relaxing.
Andrew let out a sigh, wrapping an arm around Maxwell’s chest and pulled him a little closer, before he pressed a kiss against his hair. Maxwell melted.
"You share a lot of similarities with the Gates." Maxwell started and Andrew chuckled.
"Yeah. They were my home away from home. May was the first person to teach me that not all alphas were pieces of shit. I guess I just got it into my head that that meant all true alphas were pieces of shit, but she did do important work." Andrew told him, a fondness in his voice. "Rose is quite a bit older than Richard and I. He was an oopsie, while Rose was planned. I don’t think you could tell, but he’s the baby of the family. Spoiled rotten. Richard always got what he wanted." Andrew chuckled, recounting the past while Maxwell let him talk.
He was sure this was a nice reprieve after what dinner had turned into. He knew that Andrew probably had a very hard time talking about it. Maxwell was surprised that it had affected him as much as it had, but then again, anything involving Andrew always made him emotional.
It was like a switch he had kept down his whole life was flipped as soon as Andrew was involved. While he was embarrassed that he had cried, and had done his best to hide it from the rest of the family, not a single one of them had remained dry-eyed as Andrew revealed what had happened to him.
In fact, he was fairly certain that Rose and May were planning the downfall of Andrew’s ex. He couldn’t let them do that.
At least not alone.
