“The place are we?” I requested, tried to straighten, and seemed into…a resort room?

How out of it had I been precisely?

And the way lengthy had he been carrying me?

“Someplace the place we will focus on how this can go from right here on out.”

“This?” I requested.

The room seemed roomy, good, and smelled vaguely like him.

“This,” he mentioned whereas staring down at me. “You and me on this island.”

I grinned at him. “Straightforward, you place me down, let me cost my cellphone. I’ll guide a flight, and I’ll be out of right here in a matter of hours.”

He sighed.

However as an alternative of letting me go, he sat down in a chair—with me sitting sideways on his lap, his arm round me.

“What? This island is seemingly not sufficiently big for each of us. And since I didn’t even need to come, and nothing is holding me right here, I’m the one leaving.”

He clucked, shook his head, then the cellphone rang in his pocket.

He shifted me a bit, as if I used to be a doll, not a grown-ass lady, fished his cellphone out of his pocket, seemed on the show, then at me, then took the decision.

“She’s with me,” he mentioned, earlier than whoever was on the opposite aspect might even usher a query.

I couldn’t actually perceive the opposite aspect, so I straightened.

However Alex tucked his cellphone between his shoulder and ear, then splayed his free hand throughout my chest and pushed me again in opposition to his arm. What the…?

“She wished to take a look at the membership, and because it’s late, we’ll keep within the metropolis.”

I narrowed my eyes.

“No want to fret, actually. We spent the day collectively, and she or he’s simply enjoyable to have round. Really, we determined to behave on the chemistry and determined to start out relationship.”

Chemistry? Relationship? Agreed?

Positively not.

I snapped the cellphone from his neck and rolled from his lap on the similar time. Then I jumped to my ft and crossed the room, multi function, impressively fluent movement.

“Howdy?”

“Hey, Payment, Sophie was apprehensive about you.”

Gabe’s voice was low and darkish and fraught with big-brotherly displeasure.

“Sorry. I didn’t have my cellphone, and the 2 of you have been out in your romantic dinner, so…” I used to be on the door, opening it, when a tattooed hand simply above my head shut it in entrance of my face.

“So, you and Alex are relationship? That was quick,” Gabe mentioned.

I rotated and glared at Alex, who hovered virtually over me.

“After all, we’re not?—”

Alex circled my wrist and squeezed with one hand whereas prying the cellphone out of my hand with the opposite.
