Rik walks up, smiling at my expression. I'm sure | look like | am in awe, and | am. It's beautiful. He takes my hand

and walks us inside. I'm surprised and happy to see Tamara at the hostess stand.

She smiles as we walk in. “Alpha, Lu...Cara, welcto Ethereal.”

“Tamara.” | smile at her. “It’s so good to see you again.”

She smiles atand gives Rik an apologetic look. | wonder what that’s about.

“Please, follow me.” She says and leads us to a private booth in the back. As we walk through, | notice that the

We are seated in a semi-circular booth giving us the ability to sit side by side and also look out over the

surrounding forest. “If you need anything at all, please do not hesitate to letknow.” Tamara says as she

hands us our menus.

Yes, he looks. gorgeous, but really, he’s on a date and you're working. Have srespect.

| feel Artemis push forward. She's feeling disrespected too and wants to put this she-wolf in her place. But before

“Do you drink red?” | ask, because | honestly don’t know.

He turns and smiles at me. “I do tonight.”

“Rik...” | start to tell him not to order it if he doesn’t drink it, but it’s too late.

He looks at Jessica and orders a bottle of red for us and water as well. She gives him what | assis her best,

seductive smile. He doesn’t seem to notice as he turns back to me. | see her smile slip a little as she turns to go

get our wine.

It’s like there is no one else in the world for Rik, except me. It's heady, and | feel myself getting sucked into the

Rik vortex.
