“Come on, Gabe, she was gorgeous! And totally into you!”

“Luke, I told you to stop. You know I’m not interested.”

“It’s been years since Molly passed, man, you’re going to have to move on sometime! She’s dead! You have to get over it.” Lukescoffed. “Are you just never going to fuck anyone else or something? Because that’s pathetic bro.”

Gabe’s hackles rose and he turned his furious gaze to Luke. He was tired as hell of his friends harassing him about moving on and finding another girl. Molly had been the love of his life. They had known each other since elementary school, for Christ’s sake. He didn’t want to move on.

“All right, man, I get it,” Luke said, raising his hands and shaking his head miserably. “I’m just trying to help you out. Jeez.”

“If you ‘got’ it, you wouldn’t keep bringing it up,” Gabe growled. “And tell the same to everybody else. They think they know what’s good for me? Well, they don’t. They don’t know a fucking thing. So just drop it!”

“You’re way too sensitive about this. I’m serious. You have to move on or you’re going to be a crusty old sex-deprived man.”

Gabe stood abruptly from the table in Maurice’s diner, where he and Luke had just finished a meal together, and grabbed the man by the collar of his shirt.

“Whoa, easy man!”

But there was nothing easy about losing his wife, and the little asshole was going to find that out the hard way.

“I’m going to settle this like a man,” Gabe growled. “Because you’re not good enough to see my wolf form.”

A small crowd gathered at the sound of Gabe’s raised voice.

“Ready?” he said darkly to Luke.

“Can’t we just talk about this?” Luke asked, shifting nervously. There was no way he could match Gabe and both of them knew it. He was lucky he wasn’t interested in fighting in his wolf form.

“I’m done talking.”

Gabe held Luke’s eye until finally, the man nodded.

A few swift blows to the face and Luke was writhing on the ground, his face bloodied.

“Never bring up my wife to me again,” Gabe spat. He left Luke to foot the bill, which seemed appropriate considering the enormous pain Luke liked to inflict upon him, telling him to just get over the loss of his wife as if it were the easiest thing in the world to do.

Now that Molly was on his mind, Gabe checked his watch. The flower stand on the corner should be open by now.

Stuffing his hands in his pockets, Gabe stalked down the sidewalk toward his house, where the vendor on the corner had set up shop.

“Morning, Frank,” Gabe said, pulling out his wallet.

“Good morning, Gabriel,” Frank replied, handing a crisp, perfect red rose over the stall.
