Chapter 60

***Rowen**

I found myself chuckling to myself as I reached Jax’s door. I remembered what happened the evening

of our triple date. Of Jax giving me shit for trying to be a gentleman, and how much grief Molly gave

him for not being one. He tried sometimes, but still seemed to forget. Chuckling to myself again, I

raised my hand, and knocked on the door.

Lexi answered the door, wearing a gray sweat shirt, and black leggings. She looked relaxed, and ready

to stay in for the night. I silently breathed a sigh of relief at the thought that she wouldn’t be joining

Chastity, and I.

“Don’t worry. It will be just you two. Molly and I are going to hang out here to watch movies. Jax is with

his dad for the evening.” Lexi explained.

“Thank you Lexi.” I responded.

“You’re welcome. She’s almost ready. Treat her well tonight. She’s a little nervous.”

“I definitely will.”

“I know.”

Lexi smiled than led me into the apartment. I looked around, but didn’t see Molly or Chastity any where.

I turned when I heard Chastity’s door open. Molly was coming out of the room, looking pleased.

“Chastity, Rowen is here.” Molly said as she turned back to the bedroom.

Chastity came out behind Molly, and my breath caught in my throat. She wasn’t in a dress like I thought

Molly would get her to wear. She was wearing a blue plaid little top that had small puffy sleeves on the

shoulders, and was tight around her breasts and stomach. A small amount of cleavage was showing.

She also had on a denim skirt that ended just above her knees. It wasn’t so tight that she couldn’t walk,

but just enough to hug her hips just right. She was wearing a pair of brown cowboy boots as well. Her

hair was down, but she had a blue plaid head band on to hold it out of her face. She was make up free

as well Just how I liked her. She looked adorable. Like the little country girl next door people talk about.

She smiled shyly at me, and I smiled right back. I wanted to pull her into my arms, and kiss her

senseless, but I had a feeling she wouldn’t be happy with me if I did.

“You look great. I brought these for you.” I said quietly, and handed her the roses.

“Oh. Thank you. They’re beautiful.” She said with a smile, and took to roses, burying her nose in them.

Molly eventually took the flowers to put in water, and made a comment about us matching. I looked

down at myself, and realized she was right. I was wearing a blue button down with jeans, and brown

shoes. I’chuckled at myself then looked back at my girl to find her blushing slightly, and smiling.

“Ready to go?” I asked.

“Yes.” She responded.

I took hold of her hand, and began to lead her out of the apartment, waving to Lexi and Molly as we left.

We walked through the house quietly. The silence continued as we walked through town to the

restaurant.

“So….um…what are we doing tonight?” Chastity asked quietly.

“I thought we’d have dinner at the steak house in town then Ross told me some pups are putting on a

play at the play house. I thought you might enjoy that.” I answered.

“Oh yes. Definitely.” She said excitedly.

“Good. Thank you for agreeing to come on this date with me.”

“Thank you for asking me.”

We walked into the steak house hand in hand, and were seated quickly, at a secluded table on the

back deck. It looked out onto a small courtyard that had all kinds of beautiful flowers growing in it.

Beyond that was the woods. Chastity was admiring the view when our waitress came to our table. She

looked at me first, and gave a flirty smile. The smile changed quickly when she spotted Chastity. Thank

goddess we weren’t going to have that problem again.

“Good evening. I’m Theresa, and I’ll be your server tonight. Would you like to start with something to

drink?” She asked.

“Oh yes please. Do you happen to have Dr. Pepper?” Chastity asked happily, and I raised my brow. I

didn’t know she had ever even tried soda.

“Yes we do Miss Chastity.” Theresa responded.

“Oh. You know me?” Chastity questioned in surprise.

“Not you personally, but I know of you. You helped my brother calm down when my sister in law was in

labor last year. She was very thankful to you.”

“Oh. Ok. How is your sister, and her pup?”

“Wonderful. He’s growing like a weed.”

“I’ll bet.”

“So a Dr. Pepper for you?”

“Yes please, and a water as well.”

“Right away. And for you sir?”

“I’ll take a Pepsi please.”

“Yes sir.”

Theresa walked away, and Chastity smiled.

“How is it that every time I go out I meet someone that I know or knows of me?” Chastity asked.

“Sweet girl, you’ve had a bigger impact on this pack than I think you realize. I get asked quite often

about how you are doing.” I stated.

“Really?”

“Oh yes,”

“I never knew.”

“You will learn that this pack loves, and respects you.”

“OK.”

“So…um….”

“Uh….”

We both started, and stopped at the same time. We didn’t know what to say. We should have plenty to

talk about, but it seemed we were stuck. We didn’t know as much about each other as we should have

by

now. We sat quietly for a minute before Chastity spoke up.

“Do you remember when you asked me what kind of music I liked?” Chastity questioned.

“Yes I do.” I answered.

“I found out I like country music. More older stuff than new stuff. I ask like some older rock music. I

don’t like rap, at all.”

“Do you have a favorite artist?”

“Reba McEntire, and George Strait, but he’s retired now,”

“Do you have a favorite song?”

“I’m a Survivor.”

“I haven’t heard that one.”

“It’s good.”

“I’ll have to listen to it sometime.”

“Oh, and Lexi, and Norm have gotten me to watch movies with them.”

“I remember you telling me that. What do you like best?”

“It’s kind of silly, but I really like Disney movies.”

“Do you have a favorite?”

“Lilo and Stitch. It’s really cute.”

“Watched that with Gina once. It was cute.”

“Yeah. I also like comedies. Romance movies are ok, but most of them seem unrealistic to me.”

“I can’t argue with you on that. They’re too sappy for me.”

“Hate horror movies though.”

“I don’t blame you. Some of them are pretty gross.”

“Yeah.”

“What is your favorite comedy?”

“Hmmm. Mrs. Doubtfire, and Hook. The human actor Robin Williams is really funny. He also plays the

voice of the Genie for the Disney movie Aladdin. I heard he died though.”

“Well that’s sad.”

“Yeah. I don’t like many of the tv shows though. They never seem to have a real end or point.”

“I agree. Have you watched any Star Wars movies yet?”

“No. I’ve heard about them, but I haven’t seen them. I never knew humans had so many movies, and tv

shows. It’s crazy.”

“I’ve heard it’s a big industry in the human world.”

“It seems like it.”

Just than Theresa walked up to our table with a smile, and our drinks.

“Have you decided what you would like this evening?” Theresa asked as she set the drinks on our

table.

“Oh dear. I forgot to look. What do you recommend?” Chastity asked.

“Oh. Um. The filet with mushroom sauce is really good. It comes with mashed potatoes, and a house

salad. Every time I get a chance, I get that.” Theresa answered.

“I’ll try that. Thank you.” Chastity smiled as she handed Theresa her menu.

“What would you like?” Theresa asked as she turned to me.

“I’ll get the rib eye with the mushroom sauce, loaded baked potato, and green beans please.” I

answered as I handed the menu back.

“Medium rare for you both?” Theresa questioned.

“Yes please.” Chastity, and I both said, and Theresa walked away.

“Tell me about your drawing class.” I requested of Chastity.

“Oh. I’m loving it. Right now they’re teaching us techniques, and the different pencils. We haven’t

drawn much yet. Mostly shading, and learning how to properly hold the pencils. It’s neat to see how the

different pencils, and different ways to hold it effect how it looks.” Chastity explained excitedly.

“I’m glad you’re enjoying it.”

“It’s really relaxing.”

“Are you thinking of taking other classes?”

“Not right now. Self defense is still five days a week, plus all of my regular classes, there just isn’t time.

Plus I haven’t found anything that really interesting yet.”

“That makes sense. You don’t want to over extend yourself.”

“No. Have you had any time to read anything lately?”

“I’m in the middle of a thriller book. I’m really enjoying it. What about you?”

“I’m finding fantasy books about fairies, magic, and stuff like that are my favorite.”

“Well being a werewolf, that makes sense.”

“Yes it does.”

“I know you said that you, Lexi, Norm, and Marcus have been spending time in the Dark Moon’s pack

town. Have you found a favorite place to go yet?”

“Oh yes. There is this little glass blowing shop. I love to sit there, and watch the glass blower work. It’s

so neat to see what he creates.”

“That is neat to see. You know we have a glass blower here, right?”

“No I didn’t. I never got a chance to really see much of our town.”

“We’ll go check it out before the show this evening.”

“Oh yes please.”

The excitement in her eyes made me smile. She was so beautiful, but when she was happy, and

excited she was breath taking. I would do everything I could to keep that look on her face all of her life.

She deserved nothing less. Theresa brought our meals breaking me from my thoughts. She smiled,

and quietly told us to enjoy our meal then disappeared.

We ate mostly in silence, but it was a more comfortable silence then before. The look of pleasure on

Chastity’s face as she enjoyed her meal was doing things to my body that I wish it didn’t at this

moment.

Duke wasn’t helping with his going on and on about claiming and mating her. He was a little tamer this

time then before, but he still wasn’t helping. I ended up having to block him out.

We had just finished our meals when Theresa popped back up to take our plates.

“Would you be interested in dessert?” Theresa asked with a smile.

“Oh. What do you have?” Chastity asked excitedly.

“We have cheesecake, Oreo cookie brownie, apple pie, cherry pie, and lava cake. If I had to choose

one, I would definitely go with the lava cake. It’s fantastic, and served with a scoop of vanilla ice

cream.” Theresa answered.

“What….what is a lava cake?” Chastity asked, looking embarrassed for not knowing.

“It is a cake that has liquid chocolate in the center. When you cut open the cake, chocolate oozes out of

it. It’s close to heaven for a chocolate lover.”

“Oh Ok. I’ll try that please.”

“You’ll love it. I promise. Would you like anything sir?”

“No thank you. I’m good. Please let the chef know that the steak was perfect.” I said.

“He’ll be happy to hear that. I’ll be back shortly. Would you like a refill on your drinks?” Theresa asked.

“I’ll take a refill please. Chastity?”

“Oh. No thank you.” Chastity said with a small smile.

We chatted companionably as we waited for Theresa to bring Chastity’s lave cake. I was enjoying

every second of this date. Getting to know my mate, really know her was fantastic.

“Here you go. Now when you go to cut into this, cut right into the center, and kind of pull it open.”

Theresa said as she set the cake in front of Chastity, and Chastity nodded.

I watched as Chastity did as instructed. Her look of surprise to see the chocolate leak out of the cake.

almost made me laugh. The look of pure bliss on her face at her first bite, followed by the soft moan

made my pants get very tight, very quickly. This was going to be torture, but the best kind of torture. I

smiled at Chastity as she enjoyed her cake. When she finally set her spoon down, and sighed, I did

chuckle.

She had a tiny drop of chocolate at the corner of her mouth. I wanted to lick it off, but I knew she

wouldn’t be comfortable with that. Instead I reached over with my thumb, and swiped the drop. After

showing her the spot of chocolate on my thumb, I stuck it in my mouth causing her to giggle, and me to

smile at her.

After I paid the bill we left the restaurant. We were walking down the street toward the glass blowing

shop when Chastity slipped her hand into mine. I looked down at her to see her smiling shyly as me. I

smiled back, and gently squeezed her hand in return. I only held it for a moment. I wanted her in my

arms. I wound her arm around my back, let go of her hand, and put my arm around her shoulders,

pulling her close. I was a little surprised when she didn’t freeze, or try to pull away. Instead she nestled

into me a little closer, and sighed. Duke, and I were content to have her right where she was.
