Maybe all Alphas weren't bad, because Brad had a blinding grin on his face as he returned holding a transparent inflatable ring.
"Here, I'll help you in," He offered, going down on one knee.
Caspian was startled by the Alpha picking him out of the water by his waist like he weighed as much as the inflatable tube, sitting at the edge of the pool with his legs in the water.
He couldn't complain though, not when he was wearing his new pool tube.
Brad getting into the water to repeat the same move of lifting him by his waist without asking didn't fly the second time.
He stopped him with a hand on his bare chest, his polite smile strained at the sensation of Brad's hands on the bare skin of his waist.
"I can get in myself," He said tautly.
The naive look in Brad's eyes hardened, "Are you sure?" He asked, not taking his hands away. "I don't want you to drown."
Caspian would be happy to if it would get the Alpha off him.
