Micah’s eyes widened as a valet opened the car door to let them out in front of one of the city’s most expensive restaurants. He watched Gideon step out then reach back in, holding his hand out to help Micah from the car.
Micah scooted across the soft black leather seat and took Gideon’s hand before stepping from the car. “This is where we’re going to eat?” he asked in astonishment as he gazed up at the red satin canopy covering the walkway into the building.
The curvy, black letters announcing Anisette’s blazed across the front of the canopy. The Anisette’s restaurant was known by everyone as the place to see and be seen. It served the best food at the highest prices.
Micah had seen pictures of the place, but he had never been there. He wasn’t even sure he could afford to get into the broom closet. This place looked ritzy. Way out of his price range, and social range.
His hand gripping Gideon’s, Micah swallowed hard. “Gideon, are you sure you want to have lunch here?”
“Would you rather go somewhere else, liebling?” Gideon asked.
Micah glanced down at his simple white button shirt and faded jeans. “I don’t think I’m dressed for this place, Gideon. I’m more a dollar menu type of guy.”
“Nonsense, you’re a Wulfe now. You can eat anywhere you want to. If you don’t like this place, I know of a rather quaint little café in Paris. I can have my jet wait for us. We could be there for breakfast.”
Micah raised his head to look up at Gideon. The serious look on his husband’s face shocked him. He thought Gideon was joking with him. “Are you serious? You’d fly me to Paris if I didn’t want to eat here?”
“Liebling, I’ll take you anywhere you want, Istanbul, Paris, London, Hong Kong. You name the place and I’ll take you there,” Gideon said firmly as he wrapped his arm around Micah’s waist and pulled him closer.
Micah let his head fall against Gideon’s chest as he tried not to laugh. Gideon was perfectly serious. He’d take Micah anywhere he wanted to go. This new life would take some real getting used to.
Micah lifted his head to look up at his husband, flashing him a wide smile. “Tell you what, we’ll eat here today. You can take me to Paris next time, okay?”
“Are you sure, Micah? It wouldn’t take anything to have them fire up the jet,” Gideon said. “My pilot is always on standby. He has to earn his paycheck somehow.”
“I’m sure, honey. Now, let’s go eat,” Micah said as he looked toward the door. “Just promise me one thing.”
“Anything, liebling.”
“Don’t leave me in there,” Micah replied. He could feel his nerves tightening up the as they walked toward the front door. He felt so out of place. Gideon could pick a million other men to be at his side that would be better. Micah didn’t even know the difference between a regular fork and a salad fork.
