A really nice laugh.

“I was joking, Princess.” He said, grinning.

“You werenot.”

“I wouldn’t complain if you took your top off, but I didn’t think you’d actually do it. I can take my shirt off, if you’d prefer. Warm you up for tomorrow. Any idea what time heat will start?”

My face flushed, but I looked inwardly, trying to find my wolf.

Spending heat with someone other than Silas would be… different.

Better, hopefully.

“My wolf is already curled up, and I’m already kind of warm, so probably in the morning. Maybe around six or seven. It’ll be over a few hours after it starts, so we can get back to the pack tomorrow night if you want.”

“We’ll see how we’re feeling. No need to rush back. My brothers have things under control.”

I nodded, biting my lip and picking my phone up to text Fletcher.

Me

Did you find a pack yet?

Fletcher

Yup

Me

Finally

Where is it? How many people?

Fletcher

We’ll meet up for lunch when you’re back and I’ll tell you about it

Gotta go

Love you

Me

Alright

Love you too

He didn’t text back, but I figured he was busy trying to get things organized with his new wolves.

“Fletcher found a new pack,” I said, the words spilling out before I considered the audience.

Enzo wouldn’t care.

“Did he?” He didn’t look up from his vegetables.

Definitely didn’t care.

“Yeah. I’m going to meet him for lunch to talk about it when we’re back.”
