Chapter Eight

The plan was simple. So simple it might just actually work.

Get everyone involved who would support them, and spread the word that the Pack needed to stick together and support Cameron’s decision.

Cameron and Dylan went to the diner for breakfast before making the rounds around town together, while Ben and Nikki wrote articles for the paper to publish the next morning, RJ would speak to the new Pack members asking them to mingle with the older members, and Justin talked with the kids at the school and in his shifter classes.

Hoping the support of the Pack and bringing everyone together before the ceremony would calm the waters, they all worked hard to do their best.

Once Nikki had turned in her special edition article, about her hope for the future under Dylan and her support of the Cross family, she walked out of the office and headed downtown.

She waved at Sabrina and Max, who were posting flyers of the pre-ceremony barbeque on shop windows. Ben had come up with the idea of getting the Pack together before instead of just after the ceremony, and Nikki thought that was brilliant. The youngest Cross brother was smart as a whip…and, if she wasn’t mistaken, taken with her own sibling, the middle child. Justin had been sending sly looks Ben’s way also. It would be fun to see where that went.

She’d learnt from her time away that you couldn’t judge people by how they looked or any preferences they had. If her brother was interested in Ben, she was a bit surprised but already liked Ben a lot. One thing Cameron had always preached was acceptance. She had a good feeling Dylan would continue with that lesson.

She crossed the street a few stores before RJ’s tattoo shop. He stepped out, holding the door open as another man walked out. The stranger was shorter than RJ but had the same muscular build. His hair was buzzed and the Marine Corps tattoo down his left arm that matched RJ’s had her figuring this was one of RJ’s military buddies.

RJ glanced up when she got to the sidewalk and the smile he sent her was so bright she felt her breath catch. God, he was handsome.

He held out a hand and drew her in up against his body before taking her lips in a sweet, deep kiss. She moaned, pressing closer, feeling him wrap both arms around her waist.

A throat-clearing broke the sexual haze and she pulled back from RJ but didn’t look at the stranger yet.

“I needed that,” she whispered against her lover’s lips.

“Me too,” he agreed and turned her towards the stranger, who was grinning ear to ear.

“This is one of my best buds, Mike Jackson,” he informed her. “Mike, this is Nikki Stratton.”

Mike held out his hand. “RJ’s barely talked about anything else on the phone. It’s funny how your name keeps coming up in every sentence.”

Nikki laughed. “Well, honestly, I’m not gonna complain about that.”

RJ blushed a little and shuffled his feet. “Yeah, yeah, yeah.
