“I don’t think she told me…” I breathe out a moan. “Maybe you should show me.”

Tsking, he takes a step back from me. “Oh, don’t you worry, Little Wolf, I am going to show you, but not here in the middle of our community. Say yes to dinner.”

I pull in a few breaths to calm my libido. Closing my eyes, I take a few more breaths. “Yes.”

He leans back in and runs a finger down my neck. I shiver as he whispers into my ear, “Good girl.”

He steps back and smirks. “I will see you later. Let’s have our date tomorrow night so I can show you exactly how fun being a shifter can be.”

With that, he turns and disappears into the crowd.

“Shit, I am wet and I am not even attracted to him. That was hot as fuck.”

Whipping my head to the side, I find Willow leaning against the other table. I snarl at her before she thrusts her hands up in the air. “Hey, whoa chill. I came to find you because all items have been claimed and all monies have been exchanged. Don’t bite me for walking in on you two, practically claiming each other in the middle of a yard sale.”

My wolf settles back down, realizing she isn’t stepping in our territory. “Outstanding, I will be right there to close out the yard sale.” She nods her head and heads back to the cash tables.

Between my wolf and this full moon, I don’t think I can resist Silas any longer.

Chapter 23

Silas

Iam so glad that Nova agreed to a second chance date, or should I say a redo of our first date. This time there aren’t any secrets between us. Well, maybe one. But, this time she will love this secret. I have some plans for the after dinner run through the woods. There is one thing that she hasn’t learned about being a shifter yet, a surprise I am sure that she will love.

I splash on a little musk after combing my beard. It’s almost time to trim it again, unless my mate loves it scruffy and long.

Grabbing my coat, I pull my truck keys off the holder by the door. Hopefully, after tonight, we will move into the Pack House. I know that is fast, but as wolves, we don’t wait around like the humans do. Looking around my home, I am ready to let this place go to a new pack member so I can live with my Luna.

I pull up in front of Nova’s home and cut the truck off. I can feel Storm right under my skin. He is eagerly anticipating the after dinner run. He was elated when Nova said that she wanted to be claimed the way she was supposed to always be.

Nova steps out of her house in a tight pair of leggings, knee-high boots, and a knitted sweater. Fuck me. This is going to be a short date. There is no damn way I will make it for hours with her dressed like that and the full moon rising tonight.

She is already perfuming the air with her arousal. I bite my lip, can we skip the dinner completely? No! No, we promised to redo the first date. We are just going to try really hard to not hump her leg in the restaurant.

She walks up to me, and I am wrapped in her scent. Okay, I can do this. Show her a good time, then we can fuck the night away.

I grab her hand and place a gentle kiss on the back of it. “You look good enough to eat, Little Wolf.”

She snatches her hand back from me and playfully slaps my shoulder. “Cringe, don’t say that. Is that a wolf pun? Are you supposed to be the big bad wolf and I am the helpless grandmother? Is that your kink?”

I stand there slowly, blinking at her.

She bursts into a fit of laughter. “You’re…” She pulls in a gasp of air. “face…” Giggling, she places her hand on her chest.

Shaking my head, “Let’s go to dinner before you pass out from laughing at my expense.”

She is still giggling as we get into my truck. “You good over there?”

She taps her chest as she continues to laugh. “Stop…You are making it worse with your look of concern.” She laughs even harder.

Shaking my head slightly, I head towards You’re Bacon Me Crazy. Lord knows what Gail will have up her sleeve tonight. I told her to let us just order like normal, but we know she loves to meddle.

Nova’s laughing finally dies off when she looks at me. “I know we didn’t start this the best way, Silas, but I really am glad that fate brought me to Jasper. Just in the short few weeks I’ve been living here, I already know I made the right choice.”

I glance to the side and see her smiling at me. “I know I was an ass at the beginning, but I agree. Fate knew what she was doing when she brought you to Jasper.”

We pull up in front of the restaurant. I jump out of the truck to run around and open her door. I hold my hand out for her and she places her hand in mine. She slides out of my truck as I pull her closer to me. When our bodies are flush, I run my hand up around the nape of her neck. Gripping her hair, I tilt her head back and place my thumb under her chin. I lean down and brush her lips with mine. Gasping, her lips pop open slightly. Seeing my chance, I dive in.
