“No. It’s kind of a date spot, and well, | don’t really date. I've been a couple of times on any own. | sat at the bar inside listening to music. Or, when Dustin and | were working late, we might cin and grab a steak.”

“What made you bringhere?” “Isn't it obvious Angel?” She shakes her head, no.

“I'm trying to impress you. Show you that there is more tothan the monster. you saw earlier today.” She looks atfor a long moment before looking at the

menu. “What do you suggest?”

“Well, if you trust me, | can order for both of us.”

| watch as she closes her menu. “Surprise me, then.”

| smile as our waitress walks over. | order a bottle of wine and appetizers. I’m hoping a good workout today will have increased her appetite, so I'll be ordering her a steak and potatoes to share.

“| have a question for you,” she says. “And I’ll preface it with, ‘you’re not going to like it’.”

| reach over and take her hands. “I told you, you can askanything. | may not. like your question, you may not like my answer, but | want us to communicate and be honest with each other.”

She nods, looking down at our hands. “Would you letsee Eli?” My whole body goes rigid. | clench my jaw and | can feel the muscle twitching with the force | am exerting.

“Why?” It comes out as a growl and | rein it in. “What | mean is, you may not realize that he kidnapped Cara and tried to forcibly mark her. You meeting with him puts you at risk and | don’t feel comfortable having you close to him.”

“You would be withthe entire time.” She says, holding my gaze. | don’t want her near that murderer. | should have killed him, then none of this would be happening.

Our wine comes while I’m a contemplating how to convince her to not see him. Before getting back to the heavy conversation, | pick up my glass, holding it up to

clink with hers.

“To a fresh start and new beginnings, together.” She tips her glass to mine. “Together.”

Okay, | might have just set myself up.

I sigh. “Tellwhy you want to see him.”

“Clint and Cara tolda lot about Alessia’s Guardian line today. Many of the strengths that the Fae King has documented over the years. But one that they didn’t tell me, that Alessia has, is the ability to smell deceit. It’s another reason I’m willing to give us a chance. | know that everything you said totoday was truthful. If you had been lying, | would have known.”

| think about this new development. I’m happy that she can tell that I’m being honest with her, but what can her ability do to help me with Eli?

She’s watchingand she leans in. “I can confirm when he’s lying. If he tried to forcibly mark a Guardian, then he knows that we have enhanced abilities beyond a regular wolf. He’ll know that | can tell he’s lying.” She holds my hands tighter. You seem to need closure. At least then you'll know for sure that he’s lying.”

“You will stay by my side the entire time. You have to promisethat.”

“| promise. | have no interest in being forcibly marked by anyone.”

Our appetizers arrived and | ordered our dinner.

When | turn back, she says, “Tellabout your business. You said you have a company in the human city?”

“Yes.” | tell her about the company, the two departments that we have, my role as president and CEO and how it financially supports the pack. She listens, periodically asking questions and | realize, it’s the first tanyone has ever wanted to know aboutand my life. Usually, people want something fromthat’s part of being an Alpha. It feels good to share these things with her and jus have her listen.
