MASON

Mason was shocked at the amount of restraint he had. He actually slept over at Lila’s place … in her damn bed … and he hadn’t taken things further than holding her through the night.

Oh, there was loads of kissing and touching.

But Mason didn’t want to push Lila too far and too fast. Last night, she had given him something that could be as vulnerable as sex, if not more so. She had given him a part of her hurtful past, and that was something intense. He wouldn’t take that for granted, nor would he ever let Lila regret her choice.

He was able to share some of his stuff too. And what had Lila done? Given him a new perceptive. It was like seeing his parents have a deep Sunday conversation over a bottle of wine in the living room. His parents were fated mates and literally made for each other. Surely, if he could have that level of intimacy with a woman he was developing very real and very powerful feelings for, in that case, it could mean that one day, they could be as happy as his parents had been.

That thought made Mason’s morning of getting ready for the day at Lila’s place all the sweeter. Even though it was before sunrise, he felt rested and happy. His feet barely touched the ground as he bustled in the diner’s kitchen, whistling to himself.

He couldn’t remember the last time he was this happy. Probably because he had never been happy before. Not like this. Never like this.

Lila pushed through the door of the kitchen, reading something on her clipboard. Even with her attention completely focused on something else, she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Mason couldn’t help himself. He leapt over to Lila’s side of the kitchen as soon as she walked in from the dining room.

“Hello there, darling.” He closed her arms around her waist and pressed a kiss to her cheek. “How’s it going?”

“Hey,” she replied, breathy and blushing.

He could feel her heart beating insanely fast in her chest, and he wanted to fist bump the air in victory. How cool was it that she was just as affected by him as he was by her?

“I’ve got the dining room ready, and the coffee will be ready in a few minutes. How are things in here?”

“I’ve done the usual prep work. And I’ve also finished the prep for the veggies for the lunch and dinner rushes,” he whispered in her ear.

She shivered with excitement. “You did not!”

“I did. My goal is to clean as I go instead of focusing on prep so that I can get you out of here as soon as I can. I think you deserve a date night. Which, of course, means a super late dinner at your place to make sure Nana doesn’t escape again.”

“Oh, wow. I love you.” Lila gasped, covered her mouth, and stepped away from him. “I didn’t mean it like that. I was just saying that I appreciate it.
