Monaco is distantly aware of the sweet aroma of flowers when she stirs from her sleep. She'll come to find, eventually, that the bedsheets she lays atop are peppered with rose petals, and bouquets of various flora surround her, but it's a secondary thought to the fact that she can't seem to move her hands. In fact, they are bound together above her

This is... Unexpected. It's not a sight the Spanish Empire expects to see of Monaco after meeting her the other day. He can just imagine what will happen to anyone if they decide to dominate her against her will. Clearly the hotel is a lot more powerful than they give it credit for and he does not see yet that this is an altogether different Monaco he is looking at.
He can't help the slight smirk on his face as he enters the room, relishing all the smooth skin she is revealing in her tiny outfit.
"You're in a bit of a bind, señorita." He says to her as he makes himself comfortable beside her on the bed, sitting on one side of it. He can just lean over and release her from her bonds if he wanted. "Would you like some help?"

She feels the bed depress slightly, and her eyes flit upwards, briefly taking him in. He's dressed somewhat.. unusually, compared to what she's used to. Not that she talks personally to Spain often, usually stuck closely to France' side, where she lets him do most of the talking, but she's by no means unfamiliar with him.
"Oui, s'il vous plaît," she answers, before her gaze finds.. well, anything, really, but him to look at. "I cannot seem to free myself.."

"I think these'll be easy enough to remove." He glances to her blushing face. "How did you get into this position, querida?"

There's no way that this isn't going to be awkward, regardless of who is assisting her.
"I do not know. Je suis désolée, I cannot remember anything but going to sleep in my own bed and waking up here ( ... )

Her words make him pause as he finally gets her hands free, careful hands absently massaging her wrists to ease them. "...You say you just woke up here?" He asks as he looks down to her again and gets another eyeful of cleavage. That's really not his fault. He can't avoid them.

"Oui, I am afraid I'm not entirely sure where I am, right now. I would be grateful for any information that you could tell me."

"I'm afraid you are trapped, my dear Monaco." He informs her as kindly as he can. "This place will be keeping us in here for a while and there's hardly anything we can do."

But this man is being kind to her, and she has no reason to distrust him.
"Trapped?" She repeats, lips drawing into the slightest of frowns, before she shakes her head; blond strands that have fallen astray fluttering about her cheeks.
"It is a lot to take in." She pauses a moment, gaze lowering to the sheets. "...Is it always so warm in here?"

He nods at her inquiry and ignores the thought that dances in his brain about how she can be warm with the state of her clothes as it is. "Yes, unfortunately..." He murmurs as he leans a bit and starts buttoning up her shirt for her, doing his best not to touch her inappropriately though he had been looking down her shirt for quite a while back there.
"Would you like something to cool you down?"
Reply
"My apologies," she says quietly, still staring down at the bed beneath her. "This isn't very appropriate of a lady." As if any part of this was somehow her fault.
At that question, she looks up, though. "A-ah..? Such as?"

He doesn't notice that he hasn't moved away since he helped her with her blouse. He's pretty close. "A cool towel?"
Reply
He's close enough that she can feel her hair stir with each breath, though, warming her blood further, and her heart beats just a little faster.
"Perhaps," she answers quickly, though she's not very convinced that it will help. The heat feels more like it's coming from inside her, rather than just the air around her. She's not about to admit to that, though.

The wet, cold towel he promises her gets easily done and it's not long until he is back in the room with it in his hand. He is a bit surprised to find her walking, but is glad for it. Those restraints look mean despite how they are more for show.
"Here." He offers the towel to her with a friendly smile.
