GRIFFIN

“That looks so yummy, Mrs. Ambrose.”

Yummy, my bunny echoed. Except he wasn’t talking about the succulent roast leg of lamb. He was referring to the guy sitting next to us whose thigh was inches away from my own.

I agreed, but we were with other people, and besides, Logan and I were at the just chatting and learning about one another stage. Maybe tomorrow when we had coffee, we could sit beside one another while his scent surrounded me. But we hadn’t really been alone, other than when we walked here and earlier in the back room at the store. Not that we were by ourselves at the shop, with the family hovering outside.

Mr. Lucas’s hearing would be as acute as my own, so there were no secrets. While Harry wasn’t a shifter, his senses were probably enhanced compared to a human’s. It was difficult to get privacy around non-humans.

“Thank you.” The older woman beamed and passed us plates, allowing everyone to serve their own vegetables.

Knives and forks clinked against the porcelain as we ate, interspersed with the occasional, “Pass the gravy,” and, “This is delicious.”

“I think you should take one more day off, Griffin.” Mr. Lucas dabbed his mouth with a napkin. “You deserve another day of rest. Being chased by a man-eating beast is not for the faint-hearted.”

My bunny shrieked, or that was how I interpreted his shrill squeaking. Mr. Lucas was a dear, but reminding me my beast could have been eaten had me putting the knife and fork down and gulping water.

Harry and Mrs. Ambrose glowered at the older man, but he continued, “I’ve arranged it with your boss.”

Harry agreed, saying they’d informed him I’d seen a doctor and she had recommended another day off work.

“But isn’t that fibbing?” I wasn’t sick, unless the universe considered being lovesick as an illness. “And faking a doctor’s certificate could count as fraud and get me fired.” I half expected to be arrested and listened for a siren in the distance.

“Fibbing? Fraud?” Mr. Lucas’s face turned red, not the soft hue of a blush, but an irritated red that reminded me of fire. Yikes, had I invoked his dragon? Unless his beast was teeny-tiny, the house wasn’t big enough to accommodate his wings and scales.

The older man choked on his food, and Harry bashed him on the back until his uncle could breathe again.

“Griffin, I have never told a lie in my long life, and I don’t intend to start now.”

“I apologize, Mr. Lucas.”

Logan jumped in. “I don’t think Griffin was implying you weren’t honest.”

I mouthed, “Thank you,” at him.

“It’s all right.” The older man nodded.

“It’s been taken care of, Griffin. Don’t worry,” Harry assured me. “Everything has been done legally.”

Sometimes when shifters’ lives intersected with humans, we had to fudge details. But what Mr. Lucas was describing was more like… magic. Was that possible? Harry might have skills that allowed him to create a different reality.

“I don’t understand,” Logan butted in. “How is that possible?”

I nudged his leg, and he eyeballed me.
