Kyzel stepped through the restaurant’s huge double doors and into the warm evening air. It was nice that contorting himself to enter and exit the facility had not been necessary.

He reached for Robyn’s hand. The simple act of twining his fingers with hers filled him with a deep sense of rightness. Their conversation at dinner had been deeply personal, not superficial. His children, her children, his hopes and dreams for his people, and her hopes and dreams for the women she worked to help.

But, most of all, she wanted to pursue a relationship.

This was so different to what he experienced with Careene. Yes, he had known some personal details about his mate, but their discussions had been centered on how they could best work together for the good of their people, and their fledglings. He could please her in bed, and she him, but what had he known about what stirred her to great passion?

Nothing.

They had never had a choice about being together. It just was. Both of them had the necessary traits to rule, therefore their mating was inevitable. He had cared for her, yes, but he had never been in love with her. How could anyone be in love with someone they did not know? It was sad, but there hadn’t even been the potential of that type of love with Careene.

With Robyn, however—

“You must be having some deep thoughts.” Robyn’s mellow voice drew him back to the present.

“I am beginning to realize how little I know.”

“An epiphany moment, huh?” Her chuckle floated on the warm night air. “And here I was afraid the steak tartar wasn’t settling well with you.”

He gave her the biggest grin possible. “First, your aunt’s cinnamon rolls, then the Polish sausage, now the most perfectly done steak. If I keep eating so well, I will not be able to get off the ground.”

A flash of headlights from a car pulling up in the driveway shimmered over the wall of the restaurant for a brief moment.

“Well, we don’t want that to happen. I actually like flying with y—” She stopped walking. “Oh, no.”

“What is it?” He followed her gaze to the male exiting the newly arrived bright red car, which seemed to be missing its roof.

The male was a stranger to Kyzel, but the way Robyn puckered her lips and squished her nose like she had tasted something sour showed she not only knew him, she also did not hold him in high esteem.

“That’s Kevin,” she muttered.

“The mate you parted with?”

“One and the same.”

“Do you wish me to intercede?” He had no true claim to do so—not yet anyway.

“No. I got this.” She faced the approaching male as though prepared for battle.

Kevin did not appear to be hostile—he was even smiling—but why take the chance? Kyzel fanned his right wing out far enough to cover Robyn’s back. It was a subtle yet effective way to let the male know he would defend her.

“Hey, Robyn.” Kevin waved a hand in a friendly manner as he approached.
