Alpha's Regret After Her Rebirth (Hannah and Noah) novel Chapter 177

Chapter 0177
Hannah
The water was so hot it almost scalded my skin as I stepped into the shower, but I didn’t mind; if anything, it soothed my sore muscles and tender flesh. I let out a sigh as I slid the glass door shut behind me, inhaling the steam and the scent of echinacea..
I shut my eyes as I ran my hair under the water, just letting the day wash away. It had been eventful, beginning with a sweaty training session with Noah and campaign work in my office. Noah had too much work to watch a movie and wait out the storm with me? Yeah, well, I had work to do, too.
In reality, though, all of my work that day had been a distraction-anything to keep my mind off of the way he had looked when he had scurried out of the kitchen.
The redness in his face, the bulge in his pants.. it made me smirk and tremble at the same time as I washed my skin and my hair.
For a moment, and only a moment, I allowed myself to imagine how it would feel if he were touching me right now-how his fingers would feel grazing across my skin, how his breath would fan across my neck. Our hot bodies pressed together beneath the cascade of water…
I hated him, but I wanted him so bad I thought I might explode. How did that even begin to make sense? “Hannah? Are you in here?”
Suddenly, the sound of Noah’s voice floating through the steam caused me to rip my eyes open. Speak of the devil.
“I’m in the shower,” I called out, massaging the conditioner out of my hair.
“Oh.” I saw Noah’s tall form stop in the bathroom doorway, instantly turning away. He was holding something. “Sorry. I’ll go.”
“It’s fine. Wait there.” I sighed and shut off the water, sliding open the shower door. A puff of steam billowed out, and once it parted, I saw Noah’s green eyes rove across my nude body before he quickly looked away.
As I grabbed my towel off the rack, I cooed, “We’ve seen each other naked before hundreds of times. You don’t need to act so bashful, even if we are getting divorced.”
Noah said nothing, clenching his jaw.
I wrapped the plush white towel around myself and stepped out of the shower, crossing to the sink, where
I began my skincare routine. “What did you need?” I asked. My eyes flickered to his hands in the mirror, where he was holding a small box.
He held the box out. “I got something for you.”
Instantly, I felt my hands fall to my sides and I shot him a wary look. “This again?” I asked. “How many times do I have to tell you to stop trying to butter me up? It’s not going to work.”
Noah sighed and thrust the box out a little harder. “Just open it, will you? It’s not like that.”
Frowning, I took the box and lifted the lid off. Inside was a brand new pair of training sneakers in my size-

a clean white color with soft pink accents, girly but practical at the same time. “What’s this for?” I asked, lifting one of the sleek shoes out of the box.
He shrugged, running a hand through his tousled, dark hair. “I just noticed that your shoes were looking a little beat up. If you want to start training seriously, you should have good shoes; unless you’re trying to hurt yourself.”
“Oh. Well Thank you, Noah.” I walked up to him in the doorway, still admiring the shoes. They were exactly my kind of style, and I was excited to wear them-I just hated the fact that I had to be so wary since he had a bit of a track record trying to butter me up with gifts.
