Hale got up and went to the door, bending down to retrieve the cup in question. “You may need this.” He tossed the cup at her like it offended him.
“Tori, would it be possible for us to go somewhere else to discuss my needs?” Lorali asked.
“Sure. We could grab a cup of coffee somewhere?”
“Actually, I have a friend who has a great restaurant. I have a feeling he’s expecting us.” Lorali said.
Tori shook her head as she tried to calculate if she had enough money in her bank account to eat. She was sure the answer was no.
They stood and headed towards the door as Rita looked at them with her mouth hanging open.
“After you.” Hale spoke to Rita, making sure she cleared out before they walked out of the door.

Hale sat in the back seat of the jeep, looking out the window to make sure the small car behind them didn’t get lost.
He offered to ride with her, but she flushed a deep red and mumbled she would keep up.
A smile touched his lips. Tori was beautiful. She had shoulder length brown hair that looked like it was spun from pure silk. He ached to stroke it the minute he saw her and that was before she lifted her head and caught him in her chocolate gaze. Her eyes turned up at the corners, and she was blessed with a bow shaped mouth that begged him for a kiss. Her body was petite with an exotic flare. He would have expected to meet her on one of the pleasure planets, charging exorbitant amounts of credits for a chance to talk to her. She could bankrupt a male if he desired more.
‘Mate,’ his inner beast said. He stood stock still as he watched her, almost unable to breath. It felt like a bolt of electricity going through his body as he recognized her as his.
He had a Mate. The very thought made his chest puff up. He was the second youngest of six brothers. He had always stood in the shadow of his four older brothers. When they received Mates, he acknowledged they deserved that honor. However, he never really thought it would happen to him.
Now his mate presented herself. She had a tanned complexion. He would have called it sun kissed, but it was quite obvious she neglected to go outside into the sun.
Now he would have someone to protect and the beast inside of him roared his appreciation. On the world of his beast, a male was not truly a male until he had a mate to protect. A mate meant young and an abode that needed to be cared for and protected. Although Hale already had a place to live, it was simply an empty shell. Having a mate would turn it into a home.
He would have to thank Dante personally for insisting he go with Sergey and Lorali to meet the wedding coordinator.
