Emmet

With both hands on my wheelbarrow, I whistled while I brought the supplies to the clinic. I had always wanted to do this kind of work, and doing it for Lucy… for my mate… it made it all even better.

For the first time in what felt like years, I woke up eager to start the day. Hell, I was excited to see her, to provide something for her, even if it was only a new roof and electrical work.

There was a fulfillment there that I never thought was possible. And to think I had resigned myself to harvesting pot and drinking with bitter old men.

It would be better if she stopped pushing me away, but I was determined to give her space. She was still mourning her first mate and was confused about having a second one.

I didn’t blame her.

It had hurt to lose Emma and we hadn’t even been mated. I had no idea what she was going through.

So, space it was. Thankfully I still got to see her. Which was why I was whistling, my heart beating erratically as I pushed the thing further up the path, right to the warped wood of the stairs.

Whistling louder, I barged into the old clinic, not wanting to wait another minute to see her.

I’d had one whisper of a taste of her lips and now I was hooked.

“Good morning,” I called into the rickety silence, sure she was already there. The door was unlocked and her ice and smoke scent permeated my senses. My wolf had already been excited, but now he perked up eagerly.

“Emmet? Where have you been?” Her voice echoed over rotted wood and peeling paper as she rounded the corner in one swift movement. Her cheeks were flushed, her eyes bright and wide.

She made my breath catch, but not just for her. For what she had said.

“Were you worried about me?” I couldn’t help it, my voice caught on the question. Which only made her flush more.

“No!” Her voice was a shriek and I only smiled more. “But you are always here when I get here. Today when I got here, you weren’t here and I thought…”

She jumped and pressed her lips together as though she was forcing herself not to respond.

“I went to the hardware store.” I kept my voice level as I stepped closer to her. She stood there with her lips pressed together, cheeks turning a gentle shade of red. “I needed some paint and some sandpaper. Are you okay? Did something happen?” She shook her head furiously. “So, you were worried about me.”

She opened her mouth and made a clicking noise as her cheeks reddened even more. Gods, she was gorgeous when she was flustered.

“Maybe. I know you well enough that you could have been kicked out in a bar fight.”

I chuckled, she wasn’t wrong. I stepped toward her and brushed some of her auburn hair from where it fell over her shoulders.

“Your cheeks are red, Lucy, and your heart is racing a mile a minute.
