Trixie POV The church rush had just cleared out of the diner, and I was cleaning the table that had just paid and left when I noticed someone sat down at my booth out of the corner of my eye. Taking the towel, a was cleaning the table with back behind the counter and walking to that table while pulling out my ordering pad when I looked up to see Trevor from the Great Wolf club from Friday night! He is staring right back at me with those gorgeous green eyes; I feel my face heat under his stare and knowing that I now too, am staring. I close the path between myself and the table, feeling drawn to him I feel a smile come across my face. “Our paths cross again,” I start “It’s Trevor, right?” I would not forget his name but that doesn’t mean I have to let him know that. A sly smirk graces his lips as he nods; “Trixie, right?” Now we both were playing a game. Neither wanting to reveal just how interested we were in the other. “That’s right.” I give him a small nod, the smile never leaving

Trixie POV As I walked home after Sunday’s shift I pulled out my phone and shot a message to our group chat:I got a surprise visit from the guy I spilled beer on at the Great Wolf at the diner today. He asked to take me to dinner this weekend.What did you say – JericaOooooo, I hope you said yes he was a hottie!!! – Abby What are you going to wear? – JanetThey all replied within a minute. To my message. I decided to let them know I had said yes but I needed more from Jerica. I wonder what she was thinking right now. I agreed to dinner. Trevor isn’t bad on the eyes that’s for sure lol. I have no clue what I am going to wear yet, but I have time to plan or shop for an outfit! I sent back out to the group chat. Then a private text to Jerica.Hey Jerica, Funny thing happened after I agreed to the date. He said he would pick me up and get my address from you? I hoped she would be forth coming. There is no way she dated someone like him and didn’t tell us. I am not sure how I would

Trevor’s POVMondays were normally dull and lots of business and paperwork. I was more upbeat than usual felt a little lighter. Maybe it was because I had met my mate and I knew I would be taking her out this weekend. I had planned on tell my Beta and Gamma today and looping in Jake as well he was typically a gamma too.Since Saturday Jake and Joseph have been taking shifts guarding her at her home and work at the diner. I would have to loop them in the sooner the better. For all I know they could have suspected it already. I had set a meeting for after lunch with the three of them to join me in my office to break the news. Jerica said her and Trixie were going to get some coffee after Jerica’s class today. She would also protect her friend even without wolf if there was trouble, She would be able to mind link us and we could be there quickly.Patrol reports had been normal. A couple rogue sightings here and there but nothing out of the ordinary, just slightly more than last year at

Jake’s POV Probably wasn’t my brightest idea, but I decided to listen in on their conversation. I found my wolf ear perking up to hear the girls talk while I kept a perimeter around Trixie’s house. I heard them go up the stairs and into what I assume is Trixie’s room. “Are you going to tell me what’s going on with you and the parking garage guy?” I heard Trixie question Jerica. I heard Jerica sigh loudly before answering, “It’s just complicated.” “Already? Explain. Don’t you like him? He is really cute. Did he do something?” Trixie was persistent that was for sure. I also felt flattered, our future Luna thought I was cute! Jerica had to think so too. “I am not sure how to explain. I am drawn to him and I do like him. He is really cute, “ I could hear the smile on her face, “He did something, but nothing bad. He kissed me. It was great and I felt wanted but then he stopped it.” Jerica offered. “You didn’t want him to stop, did you?” Trixie asked, her voice going up an octave. “

Trixie POVWe pulled into Jerica’s driveway. My stomach full of butterflies. Our date had gone pretty well. This was the moment I was looking forward to all night long. The kiss goodnight. I already knew I was attracted to him; he seems to be a family orientated man and he could be romantic. I just needed to know that he was a good kisser too. It would be the cherry on top. I slightly popped my knuckles. It was a bad nervous habit that I developed that and rambling, but I was doing pretty good about not rambling so far.He put the SUV into parked and got out walking over to my side over the car to open my door. I unfastened my seat belt and while I was able to be independent, I loved the fact that he was a gentleman and wanted to open my door for me. He even pulled out my chair at dinner! I smiled internally knowing that was what he was doing. When my door opened, I looked up and he put his hand out to assist me in stepping down from the SUV in my wedges. Stepped out and straightened
