Dante knew that the sun would be rising soon and he hadn't wanted to frighten Alice more than she already was. Pushing open the oak door he stroll inside plopping himself down on his recliner. How he had missed his home, but now he missed something even more. Since that day Alice had been the one thing on his mind. Maybe it was cause of how she had helped him out of his hybrid form. A sound came from behind him making him jump up from his chair. He whirled around to see a petite, short black haired woman standing there. Her scent had a mixture to it although, Alice, his eyes widened as she smirked at him.
"Don't be alarmed I am a friend to you both." She spoke her voice flowing out as a man approached from behind her. This made Dante loosen up; Sam wrapped his arm around the woman's waist.
"Shouldn't sneak up on me like that Sam. You know I'm a bit on edge from everything that happened." Sam merely nodded his head moving to take a seat on the leather couch. Taking the woman with him and setting her on his lap.
Dante watched them both not yet making an attempt to sit back down. "So you're a friend of Sam's but how are you a friend of mine?" He growled at the woman. He could care less about why she was here but why did she have Alice's scent on her. Sam gave Dante a look that made him sit down.
"She's more than my friend Dante but she was not referring to me. She was referring to the woman you drug out of the diner last night." That stopped Dante right there. He looked to the woman who had a small smirk on her lips.
"I'm a friend of Alice. Or the woman whose arm you nearly ripped off last night. You know you can do more damage than you know." The woman spoke provoking a growl from Dante. He was in a foul mood since he got back. And was not about to take some bullshit from his alpha's fuck toy.
"Good then maybe you can explain why she is here in the city and not back in the forest?" Dante sat back not sensing any wolf in the woman. But he was still cautious of her. He wasn't about to risk any chances the last time he did that it cost him more than he needed.
The woman's smile faded as she looked back at Sam, like she was seeking permission from him. Sam nodded his head to her. She arose from the seat walking towards Dante. "Alice called me up about four months ago; she sounded pretty hurt by something. But she asked if she could stay with me. Something about how her husband or soon to be ex husband was going to be having a baby with his mistress." The woman rolled her eyes like she could care less about the man. "Jake has always been an ass to me honestly but I guess they tried to offer her a small apartment which Alice declined."
Dante rubbed his chin listening to the woman managing to not growl about Alice's husband. He could take care of him another time. "So why doesn't she remember me?" He asked since her friend seemed to know her real well.
The girl seemed to shrink at that thought; she looked back at Sam who nodded his head for her to continue. Her eyes reverted back to Dante then lowering down to the ground moving her arms behind her back.
"Well she was really upset when she first came home with me. I looked into her thoughts and found a few memories that kept dragging her down. I figured it was a bad memory so I..." She paused for a moment making Dante get up from his seat.
"What?" He growled starting to see where this was going. She backed away from him knowing that what she was about to say would anger him.
"I made them as if they were a dream and nothing more." She spoke as Sam stood up to stand in front of her.
Alice awoke still groggy her mind reverting back to the night before. Who was that man and what did he want from her? She was already in a rush to get to work that morning how could she have slept in. Maybe it was because of that man whom she ran into last night.
Her mind reassessed what had happened last night. What little she remembered of him made her think 'Yummy.' The way his blonde hair flowed freely over his fair skin tone swaying in the mellow breeze that hinted the air. He was slender but very tall compared to her. From what she could tell he could take on a thicker looking combatant, and still come out champion. But her mind recalled the features of his face which he had displayed different emotions last night: reluctance, happiness, but when she did not recall him she saw hurt in his eyes; those silvery eyes that held her so carefully.
Pulling her uniform and took off out the door. Along the way she passed by the diner from last night, looking down the alley where the man had taken her she felt her entire body shiver. He was familiar to her even though she swears she had never seen him before. A soft jingle made her snap from her thoughts. It was coming from the pocket of her sweater, reaching in her hand taking hold of the phone. It was Sabrina, flipping the phone open and placed it against her ear.
"So is he everything you wanted?" She asked with a giggle continuing her way down the street. She decided to tease Sabrina since she went on about this guy every time they went home after seeing him. Like he was her match made in heaven. There was a time Alice would have thought the same about Jake.
