Chapter Four

Callum stretched and yawned when the knock came. He looked at the door, suspicious of who would be requesting entry at such an early hour. It was barely nine a.m. That was an indecent hour at a place like this. Decadence was a club that partied until the wee hours of the morning. This was not a rise and shine place.

Still, he had gone to bed early. He wasn’t here to party, and once Gabrielle had run away, he’d gone to his lonely bed.

Cal rolled off the mattress and shrugged into one of the plush robes the resort offered its guests. He crossed the room in four long strides. His hand gripped the handle, and he hoped Gabrielle had changed her mind. Maybe it was his sweet sub on the other side of the door and she’d come to surrender. Perhaps she’d tossed and turned the way he had and come to the conclusion that she couldn’t sleep without him beside her. Hell, he’d had that revelation the day after she’d left him. He felt a smile spread across his face at the thought.

And then he frowned.

The man standing in his doorway with a tray in front of him was decidedly not Gabrielle. “I did not order room service.”

Nor did he enjoy surprises.

The man with the tray was brisk and efficient and seemed not a bit put off by Cal’s dark tone. He smiled, though Cal could see it didn’t reach his eyes. “All part of the VIP service, sir. My manager asked me to bring you coffee. She says you take it black. There is also an assortment of croissants and muffins she thought you might enjoy.”

So that was her game. Cal opened the door wide. “Tell your boss it’s a nice gesture, but I’ll still be in the dining room this morning. I have a sudden urge for an omelet. I’ll be there for lunch and dinner as well. She can’t avoid me.”

The waiter pushed the cart through the door and gave Cal what he considered an entirely unprofessional once-over. From the expression on the other man’s face, Cal could see he wasn’t impressed.

He considered the man entering his room. He was a bit under six feet, giving Cal the clear height advantage. He wore neatly pressed khaki slacks and a crisp white polo. His haircut was expensive and suited his thick dark brown hair. He seemed a bit young. Cal found himself quickly sizing the man up as a sexual rival. It was all about the look in the man’s green eyes. He didn’t like Cal, and that probably meant he knew exactly who he was to Gabrielle. The only reasonable explanation was that this employee had a problem with Cal’s relationship with his boss. He closed the door and waited to see what the waiter would do.

The younger man neatly poured out a cup of delicious-smelling coffee. “I wish you wouldn’t.”

“Wouldn’t what?”

“Go to the dining room.” The waiter’s voice was civil but chilly. He offered Cal the coffee.
