went with his gut instinct this time; Kailee was ignorant about her father’s true occupation. He wondered idly what kind of lie he had managed to cook up that she had believed.
The discussion had lasted long enough for them to finish putting away all the chairs, and so they moved towards the kitchen, Kailee in the lead. Jet watched from behind at the way her hips moved, the mesmerizing sway of her hair as it swished back and forth. His bear surged forward, almost overwhelming his controls as it scratched and pawed, roaring at him to let it out so that his mate could be claimed.
It hated him for keeping her in such proximity to him without the freedom to do what it felt was the right thing. The worst of it was that he agreed with the bear, that she was perfect for him. The longer they spent together, the more he became convinced that she truly was the other half of both of his souls. Everything seemed to just click with her, falling into place without either party seeming to put effort into it.
Then there was the physical aspect. Jet found her so astoundingly gorgeous it was hard to put words to it. Each time she walked through the door to start work his heart began to pound, thundering inside its cage, forcing blood through his cock, until he was forced to work the nights in a constant state of semi-hardness. The occasional flick of her head to get her hair out of it, or the small laugh she shared with him when something funny happened and a dozen other things she did drove him absolutely wild.
“So Jet, did you grow up here in Bear Bluff’s?”
He tried not to panic at the sudden inquest into his own past. It was just a normal question he told himself, not an interrogation about his prior life and the parts of it that he had tried to leave behind. Forcing calm into his voice, Jet did his best to answer without betraying his sudden worry.
“No, I moved here several years ago. Bought the Quencher from the retiring owner and the rest, as they say, is history.”
Thankfully she didn’t pursue the questioning any further than that. Jet had every intention of coming clean to her in time, but that time was not just yet. Waiting for the right moment would be key, to ensure she didn’t apply an incorrect label to him. He was already facing an uphill battle to win her over, the last thing he wanted was another obstacle to overcome, especially one that had the potential to be insurmountable.
“I forgot to mention, Jet, my father is in town. Do you think I could leave a little early today? He’s visiting and although I told him to make himself at home in my place, he insisted on simply hanging out until I got home.”
Jet’s heart nearly jumped out of his throat when she spoke up later on after they had finished most of the dishes. Thankfully he had not been holding anything, for it was likely he would have dropped it. Scrambling to find his voice, he made an overly dramatic gesture, holding his hand to his chin, pretending to ponder the situation while he recovered internally. In addition, he mentally filed a note to himself about how she did not seem overly enthused by the situation.
“I suppooosseeee,” he said, dragging it out teasingly, “that just this one time, I could see my way to letting you go a little early.”
“Thank you!” She smiled, going to give him a high-five, until she realized her hands were filthy. She paused for a moment, like a deer stuck in headlights, before stepping close and giving him a quick peck on the cheek instead.
She jerked back, shock at her actions evident in her eyes. Then she blushed furiously and ran to the break room to grab her belongings. Jet watched her go, his hand absentmindedly rising to his face, touching where she had kissed him. He wondered what had brought that on though he wished she wouldn’t have run away. As she came back out, trying to slink her way out like a sullen cat, he walked over to her.
“I’ll walk you out,” he said by way of explanation of
