Zephyr was gone when Nielle woke up the next morning. She stretched luxuriously and smiled. Last night had been nice. They hadn’t had s*x; they’d just talked and then slept beside each other yet she felt so much closer to him. Knowing that he really wanted to build a future with her, made her feel more confident. Let the Jennifers of the world do what they would!
Rolling out of bed, she showered and wandered downstairs. Zephyr didn’t show up for breakfast but he’d left a her a note stating that he had a meeting with the pack’s lawyers, over the Northern Oil issue, and would be back for lunch. Nielle smiled, pleased that he’d informed her himself, rather than just having someone else pass the word along. She felt it showed he was really trying to build a relationship with her.
After break
