Chapter 63 Symphony Date Night
Saturday morning, Thea woke up to three identical faces staring at her.
“Hi,” she said.
Conri ran his fingers over the skin of her leg. Kai traced her collar bone, and Alaric caressed her bare belly.
“How are you feeling?” Kai said.
“Pretty good right now.”
“How’s your energy?” Alaric said.
“Good, I think.”
“Are you up for a date today?” Conri said.
“A date?”
“We’ve never taken you out properly. If you’re feeling up to it, we’d like to,” Alaric said.
“Where are you taking me?”
“We did some planning yesterday,” Conri said.
“We got permission from our dad and Delta team to take you for an overnight in Seattle. We can do some sightseeing, check into one of our hotels downtown, go to a nice restaurant, then go to the symphony, stay the night, and come back Sunday.”
“Wow,” Thea said. “That sounds amazing. I don’t think I have anything to wear to the symphony.”
“Doris is on it,” Kai said. He kissed his mark.
Thea smiled. “When do we leave?”
“Whenever you’re ready. We packed bags yesterday. Delta team is prepped and ready,” :
Alaric said.
“Let’s go!” Thea said.
The triplets got up and helped her out of bed. They showered quickly and got dressed. Thea grabbed her makeup bag, curling iron, other things the triplets may not have packed.
“I need to bring these too. Did anyone pack condoms?” Thea said.
“Yes,” Conri said.
Liam drove the SUV while the four sat in the back, making out. The rest of Delta team drove several other SUVs ahead and behind their vehicle.
They hit the main sights in Seattle, then checked into one of the luxury hotels the Valko’s owned. They took the top floor of suites to accommodate the entire Delta team. After Delta made the sweeps, Thea and the triplets got ready for dinner.
Thea put on makeup, curled her hair then tucked the curls into a chignon. She had a lot of long hair, so the chignon was full and luxurious.
She put on the dress Doris made for the occasion. It was a gorgeous, backless, silk turquoise trumpet cut evening gown with a sweep train and plunging neckline. Doris was stocking up on turquoise materials specifically for Thea. It was her color. The gown hung off her body perfectly, accentuating every feature while highlighting her striking eyes.
The triplets were speechless for a full minute when she came out.
“How did you get your hair to do this?” Conri said. “It’s gorgeous.”
Thea smiled. “A lot of bobby pins?”
“It’s so intricate,” Kai said.
“You look stunning,” Alaric said.
“Yes,” Conri and Kai said.
“I love that I can see so much of your mark,” Alaric said.
“You guys clean up nicely too,” Thea said. “I like you in monkey suits.”
They escorted her out the door, and Delta team did a double-take when they saw her. They knew their Luna was gorgeous, but she never drew attention to it.
Dinner was an experience of a lifetime-a twelve-course modern tasting menu procured by the chef specifically for them. He employed molecular gastronomy and performance art in each course. They bought out the dinner service, so it was just the triplets, Thea, and the whole Delta team enjoying the amazing food. Thea and the triplets were happy to treat the Delta team to something rare. They were so serious all the time. They would never take the time to do something like this for themselves.
The symphony was next. They bought out an entire box to accommodate their party. The journey up to their box turned into an exercise in restraint for the triplets.
Everyone gawked at Thea in her gown. She looked like a supermodel on a fashion runway. She was tall-statuesque beautiful and surrounded by handsome men. People whispered to each other, wondering who she was, if she was famous, if they should recognize her. Axel, Caleb, and Damon were itching to tear apart the people who looked at Thea. The triplets were tense, reigning them in to keep them from clawing out the eyes of every man that ogled Thea.
Thea, of course, was oblivious to the attention. Maybe because she didn’t expect it. Maybe because she never noticed that kind of thing. Maybe because she was used to Delta team following her around, watching her every move. Maybe because she was too occupied taking in her surroundings.
“This building is gorgeous,” Thea whispered. “I’ll always prefer the woods, but I see the appeal of the city.”
The triplets didn’t respond. They had to maintain control of their wolves.
Part of Delta team went ahead of them to clear the box. Owen came out and gave them the signal to join them.
Thea sat on Conri’s lap with Kai and Alaric on either side. The symphony members were gathering on stage, tuning and rehearsing individually.
“I’ve never had to try so hard not to growl,”
Alaric whispered to her.
“Why?” Thea said.
“Everyone was ogling you,” Kai said.
“Didn’t you hear them talking about you?” Conri said. “Caleb wanted to tear them apart.”
“No. I was too busy enjoying this wonderful date my mates planned for me,” Thea said. She kissed
each of her mates. They each put their lips to their marks. They started to relax as they soaked in the sparks it sent coursing through them. The lights lowered, and the symphony went quiet. The triplets each put a hand on Thea but sat back in their chairs to watch the performance.
