“Damn right,” I state.
Adeline laughs as I steal one more kiss and climb out of bed.I offer her my hand as she climbs out after me.
“Seems like we have a busy day.I can grab some packing boxes from town.”
“I have some leftover here from when I moved in,” she says.“I’ll need some tape and packing materials.”
“Okay, I’ll grab those.Why don’t you let me deliver the desserts, and I’ll stop at the store to get the packing materials.”
“Are you sure?”
“Positive.We’ll get you packed up here, and I’ll show you around my pack later today.We can grab lunch or dinner, too.”
“Sounds perfect.”
I grin, wrapping my arms around Adeline’s waist and holding her against me.“Love you, mate,” I whisper against her lips.
She smiles.“Love you, too.”
Adeline wraps her arms around my neck, and my cock hardens between us.When she rubs against me, I know we won’t be going anywhere but back to bed for a little while.
Not that I’m complaining.
My wolf licks his lips inside me.I grin as I push Adeline back onto the bed and move over her.
“Just once more,” she pants.“Then we need to start our day.”
“Got it,” I agree.
But as I kiss her, we both know it won’t be just once more.
Not even close.
ELEVEN
Adeline
I never thoughtI’d be packing up my whole life in moving boxes again so soon and smiling while I did it.But here I am, kneeling on my kitchen floor, surrounded by half-sealed boxes and rolls of tape, trying to decide if I need three sets of measuring spoons.Spoiler: I do.
The last of the afternoon sun filters in through the kitchen window, casting a warm glow over the countertops where I’ve spent the last few months creating my desserts.This little apartment, tucked on the edge of Night Grove Falls, has been my safe place since I moved here.It’s where I rebuilt my life, grew my business, and discovered how strong I am.
It’s also where I fell for the Alpha of the North Pack.
I smile as I set aside the measuring spoons and reach for my phone.My fingers hover for a second before I open my contacts and hit call.
“Addy!”Holly answers on the first ring, her voice as bright and bubbly as ever.
“Hey,” I say, smiling as I lean back against the cabinet.“You busy?”
“Only mildly ignoring my inbox.What’s up?”
“I’m packing.”
A beat of silence.
Then: “Packing?”
“Yeah.I’m moving in with Rhodes.”
