It took more than seven trips to bring everything up into the loft and that was even after he summoned Thanatos for help.

“What the hell is all of this?” he asked, peering into the bags with interest.

“We’re throwing a rager,” Winter called from somewhere upstairs.

Thanatos’ brows shot up in surprise as he looked to Răzvan for confirmation. The only thing he could do was shrug.

“Are we having … guests?” he asked, as if the very idea was repugnant. And considering he was the friendliest of all of them, one would expect him to be happy about this.

“Just a couple of friends,” Winter said as she came downstairs, her outfit changed to a pair of Răz’s sweats that were rolled several times at the waist. “You know, nothing major.”

—Which means?—

Winter had the unique ability to downplay things, but he saw right through that innocent act as she started unloading the bags.

“Not too many?”

—How many?—

“To be fair, I only sent out about thirty-six invitations.”

Oh, for fuck’s sake.

“But I think Diego posted the invite in the forums and maybe a smidge more are going to show up, but I totally have it under control. No worries.”

Răz had no time to argue that before she was putting them to work, alternating between helping and making a few calls.

Răz was just coming downstairs when he spotted Vic coming out of Thanatos’ room wearing an outfit that made him blink twice.

—What the hell are you supposed to be?—

Invictus looked down at himself, not seeming bothered at all that he was in red and black spandex with a pair of swords strapped across his back.

“I think she said a superhero.”

“Anti-hero,” Winter called from the top of the stairs, prompting Răz to turn in her direction. “Wade Wilson is an anti-hero and don’t you forget it.”

Răz heard every word she said, had even watched her lips move during the beginning of what she was saying, but when he got his first good look at what she was wearing, nothing else factored in.

Her gray haired was up in two pigtails, the ends dyed red on one side and blue on the other. But unlike the character she was meant to represent—because it had been one of many movies she’d forced him to sit through—her outfit had been slightly modified.

It was every bit as revealing. And the shorts were glorified panties that had his hands clenching into fists. And strapped to each thigh were black garters and a set of his throwing knives.

“Wow.”

Thanatos voices the thought repeating itself in Răz’s head, but while
