Chapter Six
Mark escorted us to the truck and was sure to tell me with a smile, “Come back anytime. It’s not often you see a woman who can hold her own in a bar fight.”
Once we were safely on our way out of the parking lot Kat said, “Ooo, I think he likes you.”
“Yeah, that’s what I was afraid of.”
“Why? He seemed harmless,” Elijah said sarcastically.
“The last thing I need is another werewolf who likes me.”
Elijah swerved slightly as he and Kat said together, “A what?!”
“Mark, the bouncer, he’s a werewolf.”
I didn’t make eye contact with either of them, but watched the road instead. They were quiet for a minute before Elijah asked, “What do you mean another werewolf liking you?”
“You know, Sam and Marc – OH!”
I jabbed Kat in the ribs to shut her up.
“There’s that Sam guy again. Who is he anyway?”
“Like I said before, he’s a friend. He was visiting from out of town recently. It’s not my fault everyone in town was spying on me and got the wrong idea.”
“Oh,” he said.
We took Kat home first with Elijah promising to give her a ride to pick up her car at my house the following day. Kat lived a good thirty minutes away from my house. Once Elijah and I were alone together I didn’t bother to move to the other side, but stayed in the middle.
“I’m sorry about tonight,” he said softly.
“It’s all right.” I rested my head against his shoulder. “You can’t control other people.”
“No, but I can control me, and I was an ass.”
“Yeah, you were.” I laughed. “But, I got into a fight, so I really can’t cast stones.”
I lifted my head and smiled at him. “After you and Kat stopped arguing, and before I slapped Lola, I had a really nice time.”
Elijah’s smile lit up his eyes and I couldn’t resist kissing him again. Since we were at a stop sign, I didn’t have to worry about running him off the road. Elijah was a good kisser and I thought that might be my last opportunity to kiss him, so I took advantage.
“What was that for?” he asked.
I couldn’t speak. I didn’t want to tell him that I wanted to kiss him before Alfred came back. How stupid would that sound, even if it was the truth? Once Alfred was back, I planned to pick up where we’d left off. That wasn’t fair to Elijah, but he’d known my plans from the beginning.
After I didn’t answer for a few minutes he whispered, “It’s all right. I understand.”
“No, you don’t,” I interrupted. “I never meant to hurt you I just—”
“You haven’t,” he said softly. “I knew what I was getting myself into.”
I started to get misty eyed and turned back to face the road. We drove for several more minutes before Elijah tried to lighten the mood by asking about what happened with the bouncer. I recounted for him the whole discussion, including the part where I pressed my claw against the front of his pants.
