The smell of coffee and cinnamon pull me from my sleep. I open my eyes, and the clock on the nightstand reads twelve in the afternoon. I roll over to find that the spot next to me is empty. But before I start to wonder where Hunter is, the door opens and he walks in the room.

“Good morning, baby.” He sits on the bed in front of me.

“Technically, it’s the afternoon,” I reply.

He laughs. “Touché.”

He reaches out and cups my cheek. Leaning into his touch, I close my eyes, realizing what today is, and what it means for me. And there’s no one else that I would want by my side as I do this.

“You don’t have to do this,” he murmurs. “We’re here, but the decision is yours.”

“I know.”

I remember our earlier conversation. I agreed that I would come back, but I wasn’t sure that I wanted to go back home, to remember our last moment as a family. The thing is, though, if I don’t do it now, I know I never will.

“Everyone is downstairs. Come down when you’re ready.” Hunter gets up, but I grab his arm and pull him to me.

His eyes flash a brilliant blue as I grab his face and kiss him. I deepen the kiss and taste cinnamon. My eyes pop open and I pull away from him, quirking a brow.

“Why do you taste like cinnamon?” I ask.

He smirks, flashing me his dimples. “Dani made cinnamon rolls. I can’t believe I’m going to say this, but they are so much better than my mom’s chocolate chip cookies. And you know how I feel about chocolate chip cookies.” He closes his eyes and has a dreamy look on his face. “Seriously. I'm going to ask her if she’ll make me some for the drive home.”

“Hunter!” I laugh and shove him off me, grabbing my suitcase. I open it up and pull out skinny jeans, a tank and a cardigan.

“What? I love sweets.” His eyes flash again as he slowly checks me out.

I flush, feeling that look all the way down to my core. Hunter blinks, and the moment’s over.

“I’ll let you get dressed.” He gets up from the bed and leaves me alone in the room.

I let out a harsh breath, and quickly change into my clothes. I fold my sleep clothes up, place them in my suitcase, and walk down to the kitchen.

“Morning, Aria,” Dani chirps from the stove. “Would you like a cinnamon roll?”

“If she doesn’t want it, I’ll eat it for her.” Hunter winks at me.

“You’ve already had four,” Kyler says from the table.

“He’s a wolf, Ky. He needs the sustenance.” Haylee fluffs Hunter’s hair, and he swats her hand away.

If I didn’t know she was engaged to Zach and having a baby, I might have been slightly annoyed that she touched my man’s hair.

“Is that true?” Zach asks.

“We do have a much bigger appetite than humans. I’ve eaten two ribeye steaks and a burger in one sitting before.” Hunter laughs, patting his stomach.
