Chapter 0213 

“No. It’s kind of a date spot, and well, I don’t really date. I’ve been a couple of times on any own. I sat at the bar inside listening to music. Or, when Dustin and I were working late, we might come in and grab a steak.” 

“What made you bring me here?” 

“Isn’t it obvious Angel?” She shakes her head, no. 

“I’m trying to impress you. Show you that there is more to me than the monster. you saw earlier today.” She looks at me for a long moment before looking at the 

menu. 

“What do you suggest?” 

“Well, if you trust me, I can order for both of us.” 

I watch as she closes her menu. “Surprise me, then.” 

I smile as our waitress walks over. I order a bottle of wine and appetizers. I’m hoping a good workout today will have increased her appetite, so I’ll be ordering her a steak and potatoes to share. 

“I have a question for you,” she says. “And I’ll preface it with, ‘you’re not going to like it‘.” 

I reach over and take her hands. “I told you, you can ask me anything. I may not. like your question, you may not like my answer, but I want us to communicate and be honest with each other.” 

She nods, looking down at our hands. “Would you let me see Eli?” 

My whole body goes rigid. I clench my jaw and I can feel the muscle twitching with the force I am exerting. 

“Why?” It comes out as a growl and I rein it in. “What I mean is, you may not realize that he kidnapped Cara and tried to forcibly mark her. You meeting with him puts you at risk and I don’t feel comfortable having you close to him.” 

“You would be with me the entire time.” She says, holding my gaze. 

I don’t want her near that murderer. I should have killed him, then none of this would be happening. 

Our wine comes while I’m a contemplating how to convince her to not see him. Before getting back to the heavy conversation, I pick up my glass, holding it up to 

clink with hers.

“To a fresh start and new beginnings, together.” 

She tips her glass to mine. “Together.” 

Okay, I might have just set myself up. 

I sigh. “Tell me why you want to see him.” 

“Clint and Cara told me a lot about Alessia’s Guardian line today. Many of the strengths that the Fae King has documented over the years. But one that they didn’t tell me, that Alessia has, is the ability to smell deceit. It’s another reason I’m willing to give us a chance. I know that everything you said to me today was truthful. If you had been lying, I would have known.” 

I think about this new development. I’m happy that she can tell that I’m being honest with her, but what can her ability do to help me with Eli?
