I felt like Bambi as I tried to walk in the ridiculously high pumps Cole had handed me. To my embarrassment, Cole reached out and caught me when I almost toppled over. He helped me steady myself and gently held onto my arm as I tried again.

“Think of it as walking in your wolf form,” he whispered in my ear.

I frowned for a moment as I wondered what on Earth he was talking about. Then the image of a wolf leg formed in my mind and I saw the way the joints formed. Once I had that in mind, I felt my balance shift, and walking in the heels came far more easily. It still took me another ten minutes of tentative steps before I really got the hang of it, but I swore I saw a flicker of pride on Cole’s face when I did.

We sat down on an expensive leather bench with the pair of heels Cole had chosen for me. A pair of simple silvery satin pumps. I’d been quietly lusting after a pretty pair of strappy black sandals, but I hadn’t dared look at the price tag. I knew they were over a hundred bucks, and I was strictly a bargain bin girl.

The satin pumps weren’t bad - they just weren’t at all me. The black sandals made me feel pretty and feminine. The pumps were too uptight, and the satin looked really impractical. If I so much as looked at dirt, they were going to be ruined.

My phone buzzed with a phone call.

“Go. I’ll buy everything,” Cole growled.

Given he was paying, I decided not to continue arguing and looked at who was ringing. I’d turned the phone onto vibrate, so I didn’t have the usual tell-tale ringtones. Of course, I was hoping it was Jake finally returning from whoever’s bed he’d been hiding in. I stepped outside into the bright sunlight and looked at the phone screen. Valentin, not Jake.

A warmth spread through me as lust bubbled up when I accepted the call. I pushed the lust aside, knowing it was just my wolf side being a pain in my ass.

“Hey, what’s up?”

“I was just wondering if you had any plans this evening.”

Butterflies formed in my stomach. That sounded a little bit like a date. Was that something I could risk? It might not be a ridiculous idea if we kept it to public places, somewhere I could learn from him without getting a knife to the throat.

“I’m not sure yet.”

“Is everything ok?”

I glanced around and leaned back against the window of the expensive shop.

“Yea, I guess. Maybe.”

He laughed.

“I’m dress shopping.”

“Ah.”

Someone spoke to him. I couldn’t quite catch the words.

“I have to go. Text me, I want to help you through your transition. There’s a lot to learn, and it can be overwhelming. Take care.”

With that, he hung up.

He sounded so genuine. It was a refreshing change from the glares and growling that I got from Cole all of the time.
