When I wake up, I’m not sure where I am.

Then I remember. New Orleans. With Ronan. In his room. I came here because a ghost—er…a light—flickered in my room.

I don’t know what time it is, but I do feel rested, despite the fact that I freaked out in the middle of the night.

I’m relaxed now—as if I’m floating on a soft cloud. A chandelier flickering would have no effect on me in this moment.

But in the middle of a dark night, in a strange hotel that’s rumored to be haunted?

Even after that mind-blowing sex with Ronan, I was still freaked.

He’s not beside me in bed, but I hear the shower running in the adjacent bathroom.

I’m tempted to walk in and join him.

My God, who am I?

This is all so not me.

I was perfectly happy living my submissive life. Having no relationship, getting my pleasure from my scenes at the club.

But then the scene that went wrong…

It wasn’t even that bad, from a purely factual standpoint, but it affected me. And I can’t deny that it did just because it seems like it shouldn’t have.

The shower stops, and a few moments later, Ronan walks out, a towel around his waist.

His red hair is wet and hangs around his shoulders in damp waves. God, he’s beautiful. Magnificent even. Already my pussy reacts, especially when I remember those glorious orgasms last night.

“Oh good, you’re awake,” he says.

“What time is it?”

He squints at the sun coming through the filmy drapes. “About nine thirty, I think.”

“We were supposed to leave at ten.”

He shrugs. “True, but I wanted you to get your sleep.”

“Why?”

He walks toward me, looking scrumptious. “Because, Mary, I feel like it’s been a while since you’ve had a night of uninterrupted sleep. Am I wrong?”

“You’re not wrong.”

“I was hoping to give you that last night, but I suppose our ghostly friend interfered.”

My heart races and my nerves jump. “You really believe it was a ghost?”

“Maybe.”

“The wiring?” I ask.

“Most likely.”

I nod, still unsure. “Thanks for letting me stay here with you. I did sleep like a rock.”

“You’re welcome to stay in my room with me every night, if you wish. You make the rules.”
