Chapter Seven

“Let’s go on a picnic,” Griffin said three days later as they were getting dressed for the day.

Now that his injuries were mostly healed and his body was no longer sore, he was curious about what the rest of the town and the area beyond it looked like. Hanging around the bar with his mates was fine, but he needed to be outside, even it was just for an hour. He needed to feel the sun on his face and the wind against his skin. He had a feeling Jack and Twist needed the time away from town as well. The two wolves were getting snippy with each other and the rest of the team, though they seemed to pull back their moodiness when addressing him.

He thought suggesting a picnic seemed like a good idea until his mates stopped pulling on their pants. Both men turned and stared at him as if he had suggested they have a baby or something.

“A picnic?” Jack asked as if the concept was one he had never heard of before.

“Yes, a picnic,” Griffin said. “You know, where you pack food in a basket or bag or something with some beers or a bottle of wine and walk to a pretty place in the woods where you eat and drink and talk and maybe even fool around.”

He felt more and more foolish as he waited for his mates to wrap their heads around the idea. Finally, as he jerked his shirt over his head and stuffed his feet into his sneakers, he decided it was time to show a little backbone. “Oh forget it. I’ll go exploring by myself.”

Before he could reach the bedroom door, Jack had grabbed him and pulled him to lean back against him. Then Twist moved around them to press against him chest to chest.

The men exchanged a look over his head, then each dropped their head to nibble on what he had come to feel was their side of his neck, Jack on the left and Twist on the right.

“We’re sorry, Griffin, but we haven’t been on a picnic in ages,” Jack said between kisses down the side of his neck.

“We’d love to go on a picnic with you, sugar,” Twist said just before he took Griffin’s earlobe and began to suckle on it.

“Really? You’re not just saying that to keep me happy, are you?” Griffin asked, a dark suspicion churning into being deep in his gut.

“Of course we are. But we also mean it,” Twist said. “We plan on spending the rest of our lives keep you safe and making you happy.”

“That’s what mates do,” Jack added, his voice low and dark.

Griffin thought about that and decided he liked it, but also had some more questions about how to be a perfect mate. “But how do I keep you guys happy? I’ve never had a relationship last more than two weeks before.”

“That’s because you’ve been with the wrong men,” Twist said. “All you have to do to make me happy is breathe, sugar.
