Lily and James (werewolf novel) novel Chapter 79

Chapter 0079

(James POV)

Have you ever taken a female out on a date with her older brother or father as a supervisor? No? Well,

neither have I, but I am pretty sure this breakfast is a close equivalent.

Of course, I am not in a position to complain. At least Lily is here and I have a chance to talk to her.

Given our past, and all that I have done, I know that any conversation with Lily is better than no

conversation.

The three of us sit back down at the table. As Brady and Lily look at their menus, I watch Lily.

“You mean stare at Lily,” Luke corrects me.

Fine, whatever. As Brady and Lily look at their menus, I stare at Lily.

She glances up at me. “Why are you staring at me?”

“You are beautiful,” I reply honestly.

Brady lets out a low growl. Lily gives him a look, and he stops.

“I am sorry that I never noticed it before, Lily. You are breathtaking.”

Another low growl comes from Brady. This time Lily just rolls her eyes and shakes her head.

After another minute of looking at her menu, Lily puts it down and looks at me. “So what do you want to

talk about?”

Before I can answer her, Brady puts his menu down, drapes his arm behind Lily’s chair, and pulls her

closer to him. I take a deep breath. I can do this. I have to do this. Just ignore Brady, I tell myself. I only

have this one shot.

I had been thinking about how I want to start this conversation with Lily. I decide to stick with my plan, regardless of Brady’s aggravating presence. I reach out and gently grab Lily’s hand. I enjoy the very faint sparks that happen as our hands touch. I wonder if Lily can feel them too.

“Lily, I want to start by saying

“Let go of her hand, James,” Brady growls at me.

I glare at him.. “I am pretty sure that Lily has already told you that she can speak for herself.”
