Chapter 0114
Rik answers for both of us. “You’ve both done an amazing job here. The
atmosphere, the food, the ambiance, it’s all perfect. I thank you both for making my date with this remarkable woman memorable.” I nod my agreement and they ask if we’d like dessert. Rik tells them we have other plans, and we’ll take our check when it’s ready.
“We have other plans?” I ask when they walk away.
“We do, our date isn’t over and I hope you enjoy our dessert place just as much as you’ve enjoyed our dinner spot.”
“Well, I’ve been pleasantly surprised at your ingenuity and unde sure of
what I like. If it’s anything like what you’ve done for me so far, I’m sure I’ll love it. And of course, the company is beyond compare.”
“I couldn’t agree more about the company.” He says, bringing my hand to his lips and kissing my knuckles.
When we leave, he heads in a different direction, farther away from the pack house. He takes us to a spot that I’ve never been before. He opens the door for me and as I look around, he goes to the trunk and pulls out a picnic basket.
“We’re having a dessert picnic?” I ask.
“Something like that.” He says as he takes my hand and we begin walking down a dirt walkway. We don’t have to walk long before we come to a place where the ground gives way.

Rik finds a spot near a tree and lays out a blanket before pulling a bottle of wine out of the picnic basket.
“Compliments of my mother.” He says raising the bottle of wine.
“How is Luna Calista?” I ask. It’s been too long since I’ve spent any time with her.
“She’s good. She’d love it if you’d come by the packhouse. And, if I’m being honest, I’d love it too. You’re a part of this pack Cara, but you never do anything with the pack.”
I shrug at that. “I’ve never really had time. I mean, I train with the warriors in the morning, and have been for years. But between training, school, homework, I’ve just never had time for things like pack runs or dating.” I look at him and give.

him a sheepish smile.
“Hmmm, we’ll have to change that.” He says and hands me a glass of wine.
He reaches into the basket and pulls out a covered plate. The smell hits me before he pulls the cover off.
“Oh man! Are those the best brownies in the world?” I ask and am rewarded with
Rik’s smile.

110 was uploaded twice...
You said in other chapters Cara smells like vinallia and lavender and now are saying she smells like vinallia and honey. Didn't know of that was on purpose or a mistake....
