Page 101 of His Sunshine Baby

“Good night, princess.”

I give him a smile before getting out of the car and watch him drive away. Gosh, what are you thinking, Levi? That was a bit awkward. I wish I could just see him as an older brother.

I walk off to the club. Despite that stupid encounter with Diego, I’m still about twenty minutes early. I keep looking at my phone, but I don’t get any news from Nate. I order a drink and head upstairs. I don’t even have to ask or hesitate anymore; the staff knows who I am. What a change compared to my first time here…

To my surprise, the VIP floor is crowded. There might be a special event or something, a lot of people are here and well dressed. Thank Moon Goddess I picked one of my fancier skirts. I’m bored and sipping my cocktail when I suddenly feel two arms around me.

“Moon Goddess, I missed you.”

Nate’s lips are already on my shoulder, kissing me restlessly from behind, all the way to my neck. He doesn’t even seem to care about the crowd around us, he is covering my skin in kisses,caressing my arms, and holding me close. Moon Goddess, I missed him too.

I turn around and shamelessly kiss him, feeling the taste of his lips for the first time in what seems like forever. He suddenly stops and growls.

“What’s that smell?”

“What?”

“You have another man’s smell on you,” he growls, frowning.

Shit, probably Levi’s. With his arm around me earlier it can only be him. Wait, does that really matter now? I put my glass down on a table and grab Nate’s shirt.

“Just a friend, Nate.”

“Your friends hug you often?”

I roll my eyes at him. Really? Now?

“Seriously, Nate, let it go, I’ve had enough jealous disputes for today!”

“What, what jealous disputes? With whom? Your ex? Is that his scent?”

I grab his collar and pull him behind me, all the way to the bathroom. It’s so not classy, but I growl at two girls who were fixing their makeup for them to leave us alone. At least now I don’t have to yell over the crowd and the music.

“No, my ex hasn’t touched me except for this!” I growl, showing him my injured wrist.

Nathaniel immediately frowns, and I hear his wolf growling in anger. He takes my hand to look at my injury, but I keep it away.

“He did this? Your ex?”

Shit, I should have kept quiet about it. I sigh and decide to tell him the truth.

“Yes, he did. I told him to leave me alone, he didn’t like it, and Levi intervened to help me so Diego would back off. That’s it. Happy?”

“No.”

Of course, he’s even angrier now. I can’t believe we are having an argument about this. I wanted to see him again and have a good time, not talk about Diego or Levi!

“I told you I had issues with my pack, Nate. I’ll deal with it, okay?”

“He fucking hurt you, Elena. Don’t tell me you can ‘handle’ that kind of asshole who does this to you!”

Shit, why does he have to get so protective now… I put my arms around his neck and kiss him. I know I’m cheating but he just can’t refuse me. And I’m right. After insisting a bit, Nate puts his arm around my waist, a hand on my ass, and kisses me back. I missed him so much… I kiss him back hungrily, caressing his neck and grabbing his hair, feeling the heat rising. I want him. I feel him sliding a hand under my top, caressing my back, looking for my skin to touch. I catch my breath for a second, but Moon Goddess, that’s not going to last.

“Tell me there’s a lock on that door,” I whisper.

I feel him snicker against my lips, and his hands lift my skirt up.

“No one will intrude,” he promises while touching me.
