*Alex... you fucking prick.*

"What's the matter? At a loss for words?" He smirks and I glower at him. "On second thought, maybe you shouldn't have any honey and lemon. It's kind of like that you can't talk back for once." *Fuck you, Alex.*

I flip him off and he snatches my finger in his hand, bringing it to his lips for a kiss. "I don't think so, angel. You'll wear yourself out. Give yourself a few days to recuperate. Between Tiny and Mickey - and now - me and Damien"-he grimaces- "you really ought to give that pussy a rest. She needs her beauty sleep."

My jaw drops so suddenly I'm surprised when it doesn't hit the ground. Anger fires to an immediate boil inside me and I'm posed to slap Alex in his stupidly handsome face, but he chooses that opportune moment to disappear toward my room, fast as lightning.

*Yeah. You better run. Bastard.*

When he disappears into my suite, it takes me all of two seconds to decide to eavesdrop on them. Tip-toeing back down the hallway like an idiot doesn't seem to make much sense, but I do it anyway, dropping my armful of clothes on the floor near the stairs so I can keep my hands free. By the time I make it to the door and precariously place my hand on the knob my brain is in overdrive and all kinds of little scenarios are floating around in my mind. *Maybe I shouldn't.*

*I mean, who really cares what happens to that jerk anyway?*

my sexy little playmates have all played a part. Tiny and Mickey practically held a pissing contest in the restaurant to decide who got to deal with Romano and I'd be lying if I said I didn't find their covert rivalry insanely hot. And when Damien told me he *and* Alex took care of Enzo this morning, for the next

God! What

inside, I'm once again charmed by the personal touches he has everywhere. I *like* seeing all the different little traces of his life. He has medals for boxing, for marksmanship... for *CHESS!!!* Trophies for Krav Maga, Ninjutsu, Vale

to get hard from watching him in action.

and just cheerful enough for me to finally decide what to wear. With a devilish glint in my eye, I set off down the hallway in search of Damien's bedroom. Knowing the layout of his suite matches Alex's, I set off down a similar hallway expecting to find Damien's bedroom in a somewhat identical location, but when I open the door I'm met with what looks like a private dojo. There are Japanese scrolls lining the walls, shelves loaded with different boxing gloves, a couple of punching bags in one corner, a glass display

that hang all around it. I find myself mesmerized for a moment as I picture Damien sleeping there every night. Reminding myself that Simone will be arriving any second with our dinner, I tear my eyes away and head for his large walk-in closet. It doesn't take long to find what I'm looking for and when I do, I get dressed and

and I bounce back down the hallway just in time to hear a soft knock at the door. Thinking it's Simone, I simply flip the deadbolt and swing it wide open. I forget at that moment that I can't use my voice
