“Well, suck it up, buttercup,” I toss over my shoulder as I step into the hallway. “Hopefully, this date will allow you to think about something besides sex.”
“I think I might be okay with his thoughts remaining on sex.” Davis’s voice is husky as he laughs.
I startle, letting out an embarrassing squeak. “Fuck. I didn’t see you there.”
“Clearly.” Davis is biting back his laughter as he glances between me and Crew. “Are you ready?”
It feels like he’s mocking me somehow, but I choose to ignore it. “Yes, thank you.”
“Oh, I like it when she gets all prim and proper like that,” Crew drawls, finally joining us in the hallway. “It makes me want to muss her up.”
Davis throws his head back as he laughs. “I can see the appeal in that, but how about we head out for our date instead?”
I don’t answer, choosing to move to the stairs and head downstairs. The two of them can catch up.
Even if I can’t scent them, it’s hard to ignore their obvious arousals, and I’m really not sure I can deal with more sex right now.
Fuck.
I’m going to have to send Crew to one of them soon because I’m not sure how many more days I can get fucked for most of the time we’re awake.
We need to get new hobbies or something.
I laugh to myself because I never imagined I’d be complaining about too much sex. I didn’t think there was such a thing, but I guess there is when there’s an omega involved—or at least my omega.
“Where are we heading tonight?” Crew asks as they trail me down the stairs.
“There’s a new vineyard about thirty minutes from here. They’ve only been open for a few months, but they’ve been crazy busy. It’s helping increase tourist traffic in the area.” Somehow Davis makes it down the stairs and around me to open the door before I reach it.
Sneaky fucker.
“Thank you.”
He grins. “It’s my pleasure, little K.”
I don’t know why that makes me blush, but my cheeks definitely heat, and I hurry past him.
“It’s called Mountain Top Vineyards, and they have an attached winery,” Davis continues. “I’m the one who sold them the property and hooked them up with Mason for some of the work that needed to be done. They gave us an open invitation to come out any time, so I called in a favor and got us set up for a unique date night.”
“Unique, you say?” Crew opens the passenger door and helps me inside before climbing into the backseat. “Are you going to give us a little more than that?”
Davis chuckles as he climbs into the driver’s seat and shakes his head. “Absolutely not. Why don’t you tell me how the two of you are enjoying your jobs at the rural hospital while we drive? You’ll find out more about the date when we get there.”
Before Crew can start whining, I tell him about how much we love the nurses and doctors we’re working with. About how I can’t wait until my parental pack returns so I can see Dad andAdan at work. Although it won’t be often that we see them, since they’ve been there long enough to mostly work day shifts.
Crew joins in quickly, and I’m glad he let it go.
While he loves surprises in theory, hehatesnot knowing things. It’s a conundrum—just like him sometimes. It’s why I don’t plan surprises for him.
Not only am I bad at keeping things from him, but he’ll drive me crazy until I just tell him.
It’s already dark, quite late for a date to be starting, which is why I’m surprised we’re going out somewhere. Then again, Davis said he called in a favor for this date, so maybe they’re staying open late for us.
We take a lot of back roads, mostly state highways that I once knew like the back of my hand, before Davis turns off onto a road with a sign that reads Mountain Top Vineyards.
The only light comes from strings of bulbs that run from high poles alongside the road and the moon. I can’t see much beyond the road, but it feels peaceful out here.
The road eventually opens up to reveal a massive lodge-like building. Lights shine from the building, and I can see more of the surrounding area.
