Chapter 89: Ayla Theo and I went through my list of questions. I recorded and took notes on his perspective of his timewith his father. It was interesting to hear the differences in how Theo recalled events compared to his father. Sometimes it was quite amusing. ―“Okay,” I said. “Last question – what is your earliest memory of your father?” “Ooo,” Theo grunted. “Let’s see…” He thought for a moment. “My earliest memory of my father wouldhave to be when he told me we were wolves.” Despite being a part of us, our wolves are dormant when we are born. It’s considered a majormilestone for a parent to show their children what we are and what it means. It happens at a youngage, usually around four or five years old. “Dad brought me up near the top of the mountain. He told me that we come from a special group ofpeople. People who have animals inside them. With our animals comes an extended family that we arebound to,” Theo stated. “And that we have a very important role in that > family. It was our job to take care of them. To lead and be led by them to maintain peace, balance, andprosperity.

I smiled at him. “It sounds like a beautiful experience.” “It was.” He nodded. “I think we have a picture of the morning we returned.” Theo stood, coming around the desk. He went to a set of shelves behind me. That was the first time Ihad noticed all the pictures that filled them. I moved next to him to examine them. Theo picked up aframe from one of the top shelves and showed it to me. It held a photo of a small Theo riding on theback of Alpha’s massive brown wolf. “I’ve tried to be at as many of my pack members’ first shifts as I could since I was twelve,” Theo said.“They have all been an exhilarating experience. Getting to see their wolves for the first time. That nightis still the most remarkable shift I’ve experienced. At least so far.” “My father was the first to show me, too. I’m not sure anything could beat that first time,” I said. “I could think of one that might,” Theo uttered, his hand gliding gently along my waist. I looked up and was nearly overwhelmed by the intensity in his amber eyes. His hand went to the napeof my neck, and he tugged me against him, his lips taking mine. Electricity coursed through me,shooting to every inch of my body. Every inch. I couldn’t fight it anymore. I returned the kiss, my arms wrapping around him. I opened for him. Thetaste of him washing over me until he pulled away. “Have dinner with me,” he rasped out. “What?” I breathed, not sure I had full control of my body anymore. “Have dinner with me,” he repeated, his forehead pressed against mine. “Tonight.” “We’re the only ones here. Who else would I be eating with,” I teased. “I mean dinner “A date?” —candlelight, champagne, music…” He nodded. “I know I don’t deserve it, but I want a second chance, Ayla. I want to do this right. Please,will you have dinner with me tonight?”
My heart was racing and my whole body was tingling. A strange sound escaped my lips. Did I just… giggle? What the hell was going on? I wanted to say yes. That’s what was going on. I really wanted to say yes. I could feel the thoughts ofdoubt and guilt coming to the surface. So I let myself make a split-second decision. “Okay.” “Yeah?” Theo’s face absolutely lit up “Yeah,” I laughed. He kissed me again. “You’re sure?” he asked between kisses. “Yes,” I insisted. He kept peppering me with kisses until I stopped him. 47.55% “So, where is this dinner taking place?” I asked. “Here,” he stated. “Who’s cooking?” I asked skeptically. He chuckled. “I will take care of that. In fact” – he checked his watch – “why don’t you go to the guesthouse and get ready. Dinner’s at eight-thirty.” “That’s four hours from now,” I exclaimed. “How long do you think it takes me to get ready?” “You can do whatever you want,” Theo said. “Take a nap, read, take a four-hour bath. I don’t care if youshow up in a sack. I just want you to open the door when I come to get you.” “Why don’t I help you?” He started to lead me out of the room by my waist. “I would love for you to cook with me… tomorrow.Tonight, I want to treat you.” “Okay,” I said. “I’ll come to get you when I’m ready,” Theo said. He kissed me at the door and watched me walk to the guest house. Once I shut the door behind me, I
realized what had just happened. I waited for the panic and second-guessing to set in, but all I felt wasexcitement. I had gotten to know Theo over the past week. Especially today. He was smart and good with business. He was generous, funneling most of his earnings back into thepack. He was funny and playful and sarcastic. But he was also humble. He adored his family and lovedhis pack. Che Pya I liked him. 298 Vouchers I decided to take his suggestion and take a long bath. I relaxed and tried to keep my mind off whateverTheo was doing next door. Despite his declaration that I could wear a sack, I wanted to look nice. Isha*ed, washed my hair really well, scrubbed, and lotioned every part of my body. I took extra time onmy makeup and curled my hair. I didn’ 1 rush. Instead just tried to enjoy the self-care. Also, I had to keep myself busy to calm my anticipation. I decided to wear the dress I had bought for the gathering that week. It was the only thing nice enoughfor the occasion. At least, I thought it was. I still had no idea what Theo was planning. But it was gettingclose to the time when I got dressed. It was an emerald green floral print wrap dress that I just fell in love with. I was glad I bought it. I feltamazing in it. I knew I shouldn’t be nervous, but the confidence boost I got in that dress wouldn’t hurt. I was slipping into a pair of heels when there was a knock on the door. Chapter # Tha 288 (Vouchers
