If Ba'al felt more secure about Sinjir, he would be fine with relaxing further and even falling asleep tangled up with him. He just can't shut off the part of him that is certain of betrayal. But he can pretend for a time.

Eventually, he pulls away. "Stay there if you like, I will return shortly." He heads off to the adjoined bath area. He'll clean himself up, take a minute to rethink his choices. Was that enjoyable, yes. Was it dangerous, yes. He just hopes he won't have to permanently kill Sinjir. Such a waste.

Unless Sinjir happened to follow him, he returns with a wet cloth.
