Elias stumbled slightly before laughing as the others laughed.

“We will never say no to that.” Elias’ purr was loud and comforting in my ear. I loved the soothing rumble that my alphas produced to calm me.

“Mmm.” I closed my eyes, drowning in the sensation of being in Elias’ arms while he purred. “Wake me when we get home.”

They didn’t.

Iwoke up to the sound of the alarm the next morning. I was laying across Simon’s chest and surrounded by the other guys. Simon rubbed my back gently.

“Mmm. Five more minutes.” I sighed into his chest.

“Sweetheart, you could stay home today.” Simon kissed my ear.

I sighed. “No, I can’t do that to you guys.”

Simon chuckled. “Alright, but you’re taking a half day today to go dress shopping, yes? Want some company?” He grinned at my side eye. “I do check the work calendar, unlike the others.”

An afternoon alone with Simon? Sign me up.

I sat up and kissed him, sighing into his lips happily. “I’ve never been so happy.”

Simon’s purr was gentle as he kissed my forehead. “You’ve brought light back into our lives. Before you, we were just sailing along, not living. Now with you, we are alive.”

My heart squeezed, and I kissed him roughly this time. We were lip locked when the alarm went off again.

Simon groaned. “We need to get dressed.”

I agreed as we moved sluggishly off the bed. I got distracted watching him dress. The others were already downstairs having breakfast.

“If you don’t stop staring, love, we won’t make it to the car.” Simon growled low.

I giggled, rolled off the bed, and went to the restroom. “Okay, okay.” My stomach gave a rumble, alerting me that I hadn’t eaten much of the dinner I ordered last night. That motivated me to get dressed quickly and rush downstairs with Simon.

I gave my men kisses on the cheeks before making a bowl of cereal. They had oatmeal ready, but I wasn’t feeling it. I wanted sugary crunchy goodness.

“Tonight might be another late one.” Elias finished his coffee. “You’ll be stuck with Simon.”

“Oh no.” I snickered and ate my cereal. “Whatever shall I do?”

Conversation was easy and light while I finished eating. The guys were all dressed in their sexy as hell tailored suits, looking as if they’d just jumped off the cover of GQ. Elias loved his red power ties, and damn they brought out the blue in his eyes, and painted him as the strong leader I knew he was.

Xavier never wore a suit jacket and rarely even a tie. Black slacks, black shirt. That was his typical attire. As the day went on, he always unbuttoned and rolled up his sleeves to reveal the intricate ink lining his arms.

Simon and Julian were much more into fashion. Their suits ranged from plaid jackets, or pants, matching hats, and bright colors.

Elias laughed as he caught me staring and kissed the top of my head. “Let’s head out if you’re finished eating.”

I slapped his shoulder playfully as he dipped his head down for a kiss. “I can’t help it that you guys are that yummy in suits.”

“You’re the only one we care to have looking at us,” Elias breathed against my lips. “Now, stop it before we’re late.”

That afternoon Simon and I worked our way through the dress shop.
