Chapter Eleven

“Please don’t be nervous, they’re going to love you.” Tegan had her doubts but she kept them to herself as they approached the front door of the rambler he’d grown up in and where his parents still lived.

He’d told his family they’d met a bit earlier than they had and they were engaged to be married. He danced around what they’d thought of that so Tegan was pretty sure they were dubious and hey, she’d have been dubious too in their shoes.

“I can’t believe you haven’t told them I’m a werewolf yet. I could kick your ass for that.” She wanted to kick his ass for that. It wasn’t something you sprung on people!

“I’ll tell them today,” he murmured as he brought the hand he’d been holding to his lips for a kiss.

“You will not! Is that why you haven’t told them yet? You wanted to have me there when you did so they wouldn’t flip out? That’s not fair of you at all.” Before she could yell at him in a whisper any further, the front door opened and a sixty-five year old version of Ben stepped out and waved.

“Hey, Dad!” Ben hustled her to the porch where he introduced her to his father, William.

His father shook her hand as he took her measure. Tegan held his eyes as he nodded.

She’d apparently passed some sort of test, goodness knew what, but she’d take what she could get at that point.

“Nice to meet you, Tegan. Please, come in. Bonita just took the eggplant parm out of the oven and Jillian is pouring the wine.” He waved them through and Ben kept an iron grip on her hand as he propelled her to the kitchen.

He laughed, kissing her again and when she turned again, a small, dark-haired woman stood in the doorway to the kitchen with narrowed eyes.

“I’m Bonita and you’re obviously Tegan. Come on through and sit down while you tell us what the hell is going on. Wipe that frown off your face, Benjamin, you knew I would be curious about any woman you met and were engaged to in less than three months. Especially when we hadn’t even heard you mention her until last week.” That might be true, but manners didn’t cost a damned thing.

“Thank you for inviting me to your home. Ben says he grew up here. A sense of place is very nice to have.” Tegan used her manners as she took her seat.

“I’m Jillian, Ben’s sister. It’s nice to meet you.” The younger woman who’d been pouring wine smiled and Tegan relaxed a bit as she shook her hand.

“Ben talks about you a lot. Says you’re an amazing cook. It’s nice to meet you too.” Jillian blushed. “That’s quite the compliment.” Leaning around Tegan, Jillian kissed her brother’s cheek and hugged him one armed. “He’s one of the best cooks I know.
