CHAPTER THREE

The next morning, all Jocelyn could think about was how she had almost gotten herself in trouble because of her stupid emotions. She could barely focus on working on the renovation plans. She and Delyse were on the terrace, sipping coffee, making light conversation, and cleaning up the notes and drawings they had made the day before. If the guys who would be working on the left wing were to understand something from Josie’s and Delyse’s scribbles, then the plans had to be cleaned and organized thoroughly.

The wind was blowing pleasantly, and the sun peeked from behind the clouds at regular intervals. Given the season and the month, it was a lovely day, and Jocelyn had felt like wearing something comfortable, but sexier than usual. She wore a cute pencil skirt that emphasized her narrow hips and long legs, but she had opted for flats instead of high heels. She was tall enough already, taller than Delyse, but that wasn’t the problem. It was simply easier to walk around in flats than high heels, of which she had never been a fan.

Josie’s thin lips matched her high cheekbones in a bewitching way, the bright red lipstick complimented her fair complexion, and her green eyes sparkled with joy. She felt good today. She hadn’t had the courage – or recklessness? – to do as she pleased last night, but that didn’t affect her mood. In fact, she could say she was proud of herself for having been so level-headed.

As she took a small sip of her hot coffee, Jocelyn took a moment to study the woman across from her. Delyse was bent over the plans, taking notes in pencil, and stopping from time to time to drink her own coffee. She was so different from Jocelyn! For one, hybrids had a very unique scent, and Josie had had to train herself years ago to pick it up. Delyse smelled like roses and spices, and that reminded Josie of Avelyn, her sister-in-law. This woman might have looked weak and delicate, but the she-wolf knew better than to take that image for granted. Hybrids were almost as strong and fast as shifters, with the exception that they couldn’t shift into an animal form.

“This here looks too complicated,” murmured Delyse.

Jocelyn leaned forward to see what she was talking about.

“Oh, don’t worry about it. We just need to find a better way to represent what you want for that part of the wall.” She took a pencil and drew a couple of lines. “Better?”

Delyse nodded, but she didn’t look particularly convinced.

Normally, Jocelyn would have tried to make things clearer for her, but she found it hard to focus. Ryan occupied 98% of her mind. She couldn’t wait for him to wake up and join them on the terrace. Every time she closed her eyes, she saw his handsome face, strong jaw, and that unique scar that told so much about his personality. Josie thought how his scar was probably one of the most attractive things about him.
