Chapter 179: I Desire You
My body feels hot and flushed from the warm bath. I started blowing bubble underneath the water’s surface with my eyes still above the water watching the closed door and waiting for Reiner to make his appearance.
Since he kept silent about his upcoming birthday, maybe I should surprise him. I smirked a little to myself as I imagined Reiner’s happy but surprised face. I wonder what kind of present would make him happy.
The sound of the door opening snapped me out of my thoughts as Reiner walked into the bathroom. Dressed in his professional butler suit, Reiner looks handsome and perfect as always. I sat up in the bathtub and stretched out my arms towards him beckoning him to come closer.
“Did you need something? You sent Laura on a search for me...” Reiner asked as he walked over to stand next to the bathtub.
“I miss you...” I replied softly and honestly.
Instead of looking happy, Reiner just sighed and looked slightly annoyed.
“I miss you too, but I still have work to do. If you don’t need anything, I’ll come by to see you later...ok?” Reiner said in a gentle voice as he patted the top of my wet head. With that, Reiner turned around swiftly and headed for the door.
“R! Wait...I need your help to wash me, dress me...and then put me to sleep,” I called out after him with a list of tasks that I needed him to help me with.
“Are you sure that’s what you really need?” Reiner asked mockingly as he turned around to face me.
