“Hey can you show me where the bathroom is?” Jade asks, popping up next to me all of a sudden. I jump because she startled me out of my thoughts, but I don’t give any other reaction.

“Yeah,” I tell her, taking her hand and leading her out the back door to the bathroom that’s right next to the pack meeting room.

“I’ll be quick,” she says, giving me a kiss on the cheek before disappearing inside.

My wolf doesn’t like her out of our sight even for a second, not when we haven’t completed the bond. Even after he will probably still be terrible. I’m not sure how to deal with his feelings and mine all at the same time. No one ever talks about the overwhelming need for your mate when you first meet them and how it’s painful to be around them and not have that final connection. That should be something kids are taught so they can prepare for that.

The only reason I didn’t have a breakdown like Silas and Bellamy when I left her apartment that day is because I’m used to emotional pain and I’m very good at hiding it. Doesn’t mean I don’t feel emotion like some of the pack seems to think, but I’m okay with them being afraid of me, helps me keep them in line.

“All good, thank you,” Jade says, sounding relieved.

“I’d do anything for you Jade you just have to ask,” I tell her, loving when she smiles and steps closer to me.

“Okay then I want you to kiss me,” she says, leaning her body against mine. The two of us are close to the same height, which is great and yet strange since I’m used to Silas and Bellamy’s giant forms.

Brushing a lock of brown hair away from her face I stare into her beautiful green eyes for a moment, before placing my lips gently against hers. They’re soft and she lets out the smallest sigh that has my cock twitching to life in my pants. She tastes like heaven and her scent of strawberries and cream fills my nostrils making me groan for more.

“Wow I never thought I’d see the day you’d be kissing some bimbo in the pack house,” a disgusted voice says, breaking our bubble.

“Go the fuck away Remy,” I growl, pulling back from my first kiss with my mate. It pisses me off that this idiot interrupted us, but even more so that he has the nerve to insult Jade like that.

“She’s not even a wolf, so where did you pick her up, the street corner?” he sneers.

Stepping in front of Jade, I feel my wolf wanting to break out and tear this jackass to shreds, but a soft touch on my back soothes the beast.

“Remy if you know what’s good for you, you’ll walk the fuck away and stop insulting my mate,” I warn him one last time.

“You’re mate? Oh I didn’t think you could fall any further Jace, a cat for a mate is just sad, and a hooker to boot,” he comments and just as I’m about to rip his fucking head off Jade steps around me seemingly unafraid of the wolf in front of her.

“I’m actually a stripper, but you already know that, don’t you Remy. I knew I recognized you. You used to come into The Pretty Kitty, leave bad tips, and come in your pants one minute into a lap dance,” she says, and I can’t help but smirk. Jade is one badass kitty cat.

“That’s not true!” he denies but Jade just continues to smile at him until he turns red, and then leaves without another word.

“You’re my hero,” I inform her, putting my arms around her and pulling her back up against my body so she can feel just what she’s doing for me.

“You forget that I deal with men like him all the time at the club. They come in because they want to see topless women dance for them but they also for some reason think that since they pay, it makes them entitled and somehow better than us. I just politely show them they aren’t,” she says with a shrug turning in my arms to face me. “Now where were we before we were so rudely interrupted?”

Running my hands up into her long hair I pull her lips back to mine and enjoy not only the kiss from her soft lips but the feel of her body plastered to mine. It's been a long time since I’ve been with a woman, and Jade’s softness turns me on. I slide my hands from her hair down along her back and to her ass where I grip it with both hands and pull her even closer.

“Do you think it’d be rude to escape to a bedroom somewhere?” Jade asks when we come up for air.

“Probably, but if you don’t care then I’m game. Most people think I’m rude anyway,” I tell her with a shrug.

“Not possible. I saw the way you were with Scarlett, you’re a big softie in there,” she says, placing a hand over my heart.

“Only for children and my mate,” I tell her.

“And Bell and Silas—”

“No. They’ll tell you themselves I’m an asshole to them too, but I kind of think they like the abuse,” I tease and Jade just smiles at me, her green eyes sparkling.

“I’ve never seen men together before… Do you think it would be okay if I watch you guys at some point?” she asks, trying to make it sound casual but I can see on her face that she’s excited by the idea. Honestly the thought of her watching gets me more excited too.

“Yes,” I say and it comes out husky. “Please watch us, join us, whatever you want to do is a yes,” I tell her, a bright smile takes over her face and I want more than anything to take her right now.

“So that sneaking away idea, I’m still for it,” she comments, making me chuckle.

“As much as I would love to steal you away and make you my mate right now, we should probably not be rude to the people that came here to help us,” I say with a sigh.
