Page 15 of Such a Feisty Omega

A big text. The night before on my shift. Oh yeah, I did get a text while I was working but didn’t bother looking at it.

It was from Andreas. I nearly dropped my phone on the kitchen floor and my coffee along with it. Both would’ve been tragic.

Goddess, maybe I was wrong. Maybe he wasn’t blowing me off. I took a long breath and calmed myself. There was no telling what was in the message, but I hoped it was good.

I’d really like to see you again. The club? Dinner? Pick your poison.

The last part of the message reminded me of Andreas. Dark, and yet intriguing.

I’m working nights this week, but how about a day date?

I put my phone down, thinking he would take time to respond, but the answer was immediate.

Working nights is tough. Makes you feel like a zombie. A day date sounds fun. Let me know what days work best for you, and I’ll plan something.

I will. Can’t wait.After replying, I sent him my schedule to which he said perfect. Perfect.

Goddess, I’d been wrong. He hadn’t blown me off. Maybe he was, in fact, simply busy and had an early morning. He did mention something about being an owner of the club wasn’t his only job, so there was a chance the man was crazy scheduled to the brim.

I ate my oatmeal and wished I knew more about him. He texted me around lunchtime asking about a beach date. It had been months since I’d been there.

That sounds like a lot of fun. Should I bring anything?

Don’t worry. I’ll handle everything, omega. A picnic sounds great. Don’t you think?

I let out a giggle.Sounds fantastic to me. I could use some sun.

He sent me a smiley face.Same. Looking forward to seeing you again.

Me too.

I set my mind to getting to know Andreas better. If my wolf was way off and he wasn’t my mate, then if nothing else, he was nice to hang out with, and there was definitely some romance and feelings.

My wolf growled at the notion of Andreas not being my alpha.

He also wanted out.

Since it was my day off, I drove out to a rural location where shifters usually roamed and got out of the truck. The sun was high in the sky and I took a few moments to soak it in. Vitamin D was definitely needed in my life.

I stripped off my clothes and let my wolf loose. He was eager to get out and roam, but I had to reel him in as he ran to the outer edges of the land with one thing, or one person, on his mind—Andreas.

Since I’d let him to the forefront of my consciousness, he’d shoved the idea at me over and over. Andreas wasn’t just some sexy man that starred in my dreams—he was my true mate. My wolf proved his point with reminding us of the way the alpha smelled. How he looked at us. His very presence gave us no wiggle room to think anything else but that he was our true mate. Made for us by Fate.

Maybe Andreas realized that as well.

Once I shifted back, I drove back home with a new pep in my step. I had a date with my mate. That sentence alone fueled me like no latte could.

A beach date with my fated mate. I couldn’t imagine life got any better than that.

Peaches immediately noticed my change of demeanor when I got into work. “He called you?”

I nodded. “We have a date in a few days.”

We quietly high-fived since the babies were all around us.

Yeah. I had a date with my alpha.
