Orion eyed the jeep with distaste.

"It's just a vehicle, Orion, it won't bite," Phil said, rolling her eyes.

"I know what it is. I don't have to like it."

"Well, when it means the difference between hours of tramping across forests and fields and getting your mate home in safety and comfort, it's hard to beat old Bertha here.

"You named your jeep?"

"Someone did, years ago. Who am I to argue?"

Nix and Leona stepped outside, Nix blinking in the bright sunlight, squinting and shielding his eyes.

"You've been in a car before, right?" Orion checked, biting back a curse when Nix shook his head. "Okay, you can sit in the back with me. Leona, you can take passenger seat next to Phil."

"How considerate," she said with a smile, patting Nix on the shoulder as she passed him. "Don't worry, Phoenix, Orion is just as nervous, if not more so, than you. Bear shifters and vehicles don't mix.

When Nix turned to him, all Orion could do was shrug. "She's right, more or less. Cars, not my favorite thing. I have a motorcycle in Evenfall. I keep meaning to dig it out and see if it's still working."

"A motorcycle?" Nix asked, letting Orion lead him to the car. He climbed in with only a brief hesitation and Orion stepped around to the other side and got in next to him.

"It's like a bicycle, with a motor. You do know what a bicycle is, right?"

"Sure, at home we keep them next to our speedboats."

Nix was looking at him, one eyebrow raised, a clear challenge on his face. Belatedly, Orion realized he hadn't been asking what a motorcycle was but probably wondering why Orion had one in the first place.

"Smartass," Orion mumbled. "Put your belt on."

Nix looked down at his clothes and back up at him. "I don't have a belt."

"Seatbelt. This thing, here." He pulled it out and across Nix's body, securing it safely.

Nix looked alarmed at first, until he watched Orion put his own on. "What are they for?" he asked.

"So we're not thrown out if we crash. With Phil's driving, that's a distinct possibility." The wolf in question was talking to a group of her people. She turned, glaring at Orion. "I heard that Mr. I'm-not-claustrophobic, I'm-a-bear-shifter. Let's see how well you'd do at the wheel."

"Is it like riding a bicycle?" Nix piped up helpfully.

"Don't you start," Orion said, leveling him with a stare that would have had most others cowering in the corner.

"I didn't. You did."

"Can't an Alpha get any respect around here?"

"You're an Alpha?" Nix said in mock surprise as Phil climbed into the driver's seat. "I'd never have guessed."

His playful expression flickered with fear as the engine sputtered to life. Orion lay one hand over his. "Yeah, well you're way too mouthy to be an Alpha's mate. They're all meekness and obedience, like my brothers' mates."

Leona snorted with laughter as Nix gratefully squeezed his hand in return.

"I can be meek," Nix said, dropping his eyes before gazing back up at Orion through thick lashes.
