When I woke up I was surrounded by pink and part of me thought I had been unceremoniously dumped in the doll aisle at the toy store. It was only when I realized I was on the couch in the common area of the suite that I relaxed. I had barely spent any time there, and when I was in the suite I usually stayed in my room so I forgot how pink the living space was, all thanks to Rose.

“Your lover, or one of them, dropped you here yesterday. I was starting to think you would be permanently asleep on the couch. You’re too heavy for me to move myself so I was about to get a big strong man to come and save me, but alas, you are awake now and can move to your room by yourself.” Rose’s voice greeted me from the corner of the room where she was sitting and, I shit you not, knitting a baby’s sweater. That girl could be creepy as all get out.

“Thanks. I’ll get out of your way.”

“I thought I made myself clear when I said none of your boys were welcome in here?” she demanded, tucking her knitting away and standing with her hands on her hips like a mother reprimanding a child.

“You did, but I was unconscious. I’m sure if I explain it to them then next time they’ll just take me to their place. We won’t disturb you again, I’m sorry.” I wanted to say the exact opposite, to tell her to fuck off and let me do what I want since we were sharing this suite, but I knew that would only make the situation worse, so I bit my tongue, literally, to stop the traitorous organ from betraying me.

“Do, and take the one asleep on the floor outside with you when you leave,” she said with a sniff as she turned and disappeared into her own room.

I stumbled forward, my limbs still not fully awake, and opened the door expecting to find Noah there waiting for me to wake up. It wasn’t though. The blond head of hair that greeted me on the floor belonged to none other than Gaius. His blue-green eyes blinked open and I knew he’d sensed me standing there watching him. He blinked up at me a few times before a wide grin spread over his face.

“Hey, beautiful, have a good nap?” he asked, before he pushed up off the floor and dusted himself off.

“Apparently, although next time I’d prefer if you guys just take me back to your place,” I said with a sigh.

“That an invitation?” Gaius winked at me and my heart jumped in my chest. He was drop dead, drool worthy gorgeous when he wanted to be. He tucked a lock of blond hair behind his ear and looked at me with smoldering eyes. Was he actually wanting an answer?

“I, uh...” I stumbled over my words as I tried to think of something to say other than yes, that was an invitation, please take me back to your place and screw my brains out.
