Alex had a body that was easy to play, eager for a gentle touch after a life of abuse.  It was wicked of Andreas to do what he was doing, and he delighted in that, but he also knew that it was better that his pretty little runaway knew what pleasure between two consenting adults could be like.  It was better than living in fear of such intimacy thanks to old scars left by a man even more evil than the assassin could hope (or want) to be.<br/><br/>“Okay,” he breathed hot against Alex’s neck.  “Be patient for me.”<br/><br/>He finished washing what he could reach with the same slow, gentle touch, then began rinsing the suds away.  His fingers dipped into the body conditioner and he spread it between his hands before gliding them over Alex’s chest.  The rich, sweet smell grew as he smoothed the slick, silky cream over the other man’s skin.<br/><br/>“Now you’ll smell almost like candy,” he commented in a happy purr, massaging at Alex’s shoulders with enough caution to watch for any unseen injuries or bruises.  He did the same along his chest and sides, giving the man the comfort of a relaxing experience all while double checking for broken ribs or anything else that seemed out of place.  He could walk fine, all things considered, so Alex wasn’t likely to have anything wrong with his hips down.<br/><br/>After he gave Alex a final rinse, the assassin guided him to sit up and exited the bath first to grab the towels.  He wrapped one around his waist, though it did little to hide the state of arousal he was in.  Then he was helping Alex up and out, making sure the poor thing didn’t slip and add to his injuries.  Another towel was unfolded, and Andreas began to pat the other blond down from top to bottom, treating him gently, as though he might break if one of those sore spots were pressed against too hard.<br/><br/>Once that slender body was mostly dried, Andreas took the young man’s hand and led him back into the bedroom.  He had plans for his sweet little dove…<br/><br/>“Lay down for me,” he urged.  As sleepy as Alex was, he’d have no problem staying awake for what Andreas had planned, but he would probably pass out directly after.
