Chapter 18
The click-clack of a lock awoke Vince. He stirred, only to find himself in very unfamiliar surrounds. Beige paint, old baseboards and cornices, cheap oak furniture, the warm light of a bedside lampâ¦
Slowly, he recalled where he was. He almost never visited Fiaâs apartment in Albion, but heâd spent the night making an impression on her mattress.
He looked toward the source of the sound that woke him up. Fia stood outside, leaning away from him in little more than her underwear. The dim twilight barely illuminated her figure, but he made out her taut ass and black panties without much issue. If anything, he wished she didnât show off outside.
âDo you always go out to smoke dressed like that?â he asked, sitting up.
Fia looked back at him, cigarette in her mouth. She raised an eyebrow at him.
Her balcony faced the inside of her apartment complex, limiting her exposure. At this time almost nobody would see her.
âI donât smoke inside,â she said. âSo, yeah, I sneak in a cig before I get dressed.â Her eyes lidded. âThinking of railing me out here?â
âIâm thinking of whoâs watching,â he said, voice gruffer than intended.
She snorted. âSettle down, V.â
When she turned around and went back to smoking, he took matters into his own hands. Sheâd tossed her jacket onto the ground last night. He picked it up, joined her on the balcony, and threw it over her shoulders.
Fia glowered at him. âPossessive this morning.â
He wrapped his arms around her and nestled his head into her shoulder. âYouâre my girlfriend. Iâm allowed to be.â
âUh huh. Whoâs cooking this morning?â
âDo you want pancakes?â
âI donât have any eggs or pancake mix, so good luck.â She smirked at him.
âThen Iâm all out of ideas,â he said.
She rolled her eyes at him and took a long puff of her cigarette. Part of him wanted to take it and steal a puff of his own, but he thought better of it.
The two of them remained there for a few minutes. Neither of them spoke a word. They simply stood together, enjoying each otherâs company and absorbing their warmth.
âDo you remember something I said to you, not long after we first met? About the allure of waking up in your mateâs bed?â Fia asked.
Vince nodded, his head brushing against the side of hers.
âI was wrong,â she said.
He frowned, but remained silent. She was going somewhere with this.
âI figured it was a bigger deal to always go to you. To be yours and take in your scent, and be claimed in your bed.â She brushed her hair behind one twitching wolf ear, her face red as a cherry. âBut waking up in my own bed, and your scent intermingling with mine, like youâre infiltrating my space⦠Thatâs the real deal. I know why Pola always wants you to come to her.â
Vince chuckled and pressed his nose into Fiaâs cheek. She grumbled at him.
âYou just have to ask,â he said. Then paused. âIn fact, it might be better to ask. Iâve been getting way too carried away with training lately, and itâs too easy to just go home with Nina.
