There were several young ladies standing in the room, waiting for me to get into the water.
I wasn't used to having so many people with me in the bathroom, but then again, this wasn't a bathroom.

As I stepped onto the dry floor, my eyes traveled to a familiar pair of eyes staring hotly at my naked body with barely concealed passion.
My body responded immediately. My breath caught in my throat, and I swallowed audibly. Although I'd just had a bath, I felt a sudden wave of heat hit me.
