She felt clean too, and wondered if Gray had cleaned her before she fell asleep.He was beast on the bed, but he’s really considerate and gentle in another way.Victoria summoned her strength and leaped out of bed, making her way out of the room. She followed the scent and found herself at the kitchen entrance. From her vantage point, she could see Gray cooking something.“Hmm, hmm
