The Moon Valley Pack

Chapter 2: Hey there, Darlin'

*** Genevieve POV ***

                Once we pulled into the valet and get out, I can tell that Jojo is impressed.

“Toulous?! I’ve owned a business for 5 years and I’ve still never found it in me to pay for the

insanely priced dishes they serve here.” She stated.

“I know, but I can splurge this one time for us since it’s such a special occasion.”

“Bonjour and welcome madams. Are you looking for a table for 2?” The male matre d’ states

with a very impressive French accent.

                “Yes, please. We’re hoping to get something outside in the shade?” I ask politely.

                “Of course. Right this way please.” He takes our menus and lead us to the table.

                As we get there we notice a table of gentleman a few years older than us looking as if they’re

having some kind of meeting. I’m not sure if they’re here for pleasure or business though, but I don’t mind 

either way since they look gorgeous! Clearly Jojo notices too as she looks back at me while making

a shocked face. I nod my head and mouth “I know.”

                As we sit down we notice that we’re only 2 tables away from the masterpieces of male

specimen, for some reason I can feel myself starting to lease love juices. I look over and notice that the

two largest males out of the group are looking at Jojo and I. The larger of the two takes a breath in and I

could’ve sworn that his eyes turned black as I made eye contact. I looked over at Jojo and realized that

she was looking the table making eye control with the second largest man and biting her lip.

                I leaned closer to Jojo and whispered, “Are you as wet as I am right now, because I could’ve

sworn Niagra Falls just showed up in my panties.”

Apparently, that seemed to break Jojo out of her haze and she laughed while nodding

vigorously. I looked back to the guys and saw the guy I was making eye contact with smirking while

staring me down.

                I whisper to Jojo again, “If he keeps looking at me the way he is then I will have no problem

riding him in front of all these people. I mean it is Texas after all.” Jojo looks me in the eye, looks back at

the table then back at me. “Girl if you do it I will too. That delicious man over there keeps eye f*cking

me and I am this close to pounding it out on the ground with him right here and now.” She states while

holding up her index and thumb to show how close she is. As if they heard our entire conversation, the

two guys that we were making eye contact with decided to get up and walk over to our table. The taller

of the two was walking in front, as he continued closer, I allowed my eyes to rake up his body. From his

insanely long legs, over his lien torso up to his muscular and broad chest that held massive arms that

had tattoos on them up to his clean-shaven face with tanned skin a strong jaw. His hair showed the sides

of his head shaves while the top was a little longer, it was brown with flecs of gold in it. I thought to

myself, “Just enough hair on top to pull while I have my legs wrapped around his face.”

                I barely spared his friend a glance, but the glance that I did make was able to let me know that

he had to have come from Hispanic dissent with his brown skin and black hair. Another give away was

that when he greeted Jojo he stated “Hola Mami.”

I looked back at the god in front of me, or I should say devil with the thoughts that I’m having

about him. As soon as I made eye contact I felt lost in his hazel eyes, then he spoke and I was a goner.

                “Well, hey there darlin’. How are you doin’ on this hot summer day?” He asked in a deep voice

just dripping in southern charm. I felt my sacred area leak some more and once again the gentleman in

front of me breathed in as if he could smell it. I blinked a few times to clear the haze that I found myself

in and looked over to Jojo who looked to be in an intimate conversation with the other guy.

                “Hi…” I said shyly.

                A smile crept up one side of his face. “Do you mind if I take a seat? I don’t mean to intrude, but I

just couldn’t pass up a moment to speak with you.”

                “Of course.” I say while gesturing to the seat next to me.

                “I’m jack.” He says.

                ”I’m Genevieve, but everyone calls me Gen.” I reply.

                “Well, Genevieve, what has brought you out here today?” He asks while using my full name.

Normally I didn’t like it since it wasn’t a typical name, but I think I could learn to love it with the way Jack

said it.

                “Well, my friend here,” I pointed to Jojo, “has been gracious enough to offer me a partnership at

her company for event planning and I decided that I wanted to treat her and I as a thank you for her

faith in me.” I finished explaining.

                “That’s amazing! Congratulatins, Genevieve! How long have you two been working together?’

Jack asks.

                “I’ve been working for her company for almost a year and a half, but she’s had the company for

almost 5 years.” I state.

                “Now, if you don’t mind me asking how old are you?” Jack asks.

                “I’m 25,” I tell him.

                “Wow, beauty and brains I see.” He compliments me.

                I blush as his compliment and say thank you. “so what bring you here today, Jack?”

                “Aside from being able to meet you? My team and I always get together for morning briefings

and today we decided to come here for some good food and fresh air. Plus we just finished sparring and

needed some food to refuel.” He explained.

                “Well that sounds like a great idea! What do you do for work?” I ask

                “Well I own a few different businesses. One is a bartending company, and another is a catering

company. I do some business consulting on the side, but that’s where my team comes in and helps as 

well.” He states.

                “That’s amazing!” I’m floored since it seems as though he’s involved in the same kind of

businesses that I am. Though, now that I have a promotion, I could start thinking about quitting my

bartending job. As if she can read my mind, Jojo looks over at me and says, “You know Gen, now that

we’re partners and you’ve just gotten a very decent raise you can talk to your sleazeball of a manager at

Twins Club and quit. Lord knows it’s time. Especially since all he does is make you uncomfortable.”

                Before I can respond I hear a low, but strong growl come from Jack. I turn my head back to him a

little shocked and see him looking as if nothing happened.

                “Who is he and what’s his name?” Jack asks suddenly possessive.

                “His name is Chad, and he’s not as bad as Jojo is making him seem. He’s just lonely and wants

someone to talk to.” I state trying to defend him since I haven’t officially decided if I’m quitting.

                Just then I start to feel really dizzy, my head started to sway and I couldn’t lift my arms.

                “Woah there, honey are you doin’ ok?” Jack asks concerned.

“Oh Sh*t!” Jojo exclaims. “Guys I’m so sorry, Gen has this ability. Whenever she has a strong

dream that’s been haunting her they can sometimes come when she’s awake too, almost like a vision of

the future.” She finishes explaining.

                At that point all my surroundings were blocked out and I couldn’t see anything. I started to

hear this ringing noise in my ear that indicates this dream, or vision now I should say, is about to begin.

---

                I’m terrified. I’m shaking and sweating. My adrenalin is through the roof. As I’m running up to

my apartment I look back since I feel like someone is watching me. As my eyes scan the parking lot at my

apartment complex I notice a familiar red truck. My blood runs cold and my legs stop working. I break

out in a cold sweat. The man behind the wheel makes eye contact with me an evil smile forms on his

mouth. The kind of smile that makes me want to scream bloody murder. Just as I take in air to scream I

feel a needle plunge into my neck and I blackout.

---

                I start to come to and realize that I’m on the ground at the restaurant. I look up and see Jojo,

Jack and all of the guys he came in with hovering over me. I try to sit up and Jack is immediately picking

me up, I’m not even sure I saw him move fast enough to bend down. I just assume that maybe I hit my

head on the way down and I’m disoriented.  Jack sets me back on my chair and Jojo reaches over to grab

my hand.

“Was it the same vision?” She asks.

                I nod my head.

                “Was it Tanner again?” She asks. “Yes it was.” I reply.

                “Who is Tanner?” Jack asks.

                “He’s my ex boyfriend. He’s been making my life a living hell for the past 6 years. I tried to go to

the police, but they said that since he hasn’t done anything illegal there’s nothing they can do. Also, that

any visions or premonitions that I may be having can’t be used to stop a crime.” I stated.

                “Uh… hi. My name is Sebastian.” The guy that was talking with Jojo states. “How do you know

that a crime will be committed based on your vision?” He asks.

                “Because I’ve had these since I was 11 and every time, I’ve had a dream that strong that then

turns into a vision it always comes true. Always. Normally I have the same vision a few more times each

that includes a little bit more details and information before it comes true. Typically, about a month or

so now since I just have the first vision.” I look around and see some faces that are honestly curious and

some that are apprehensive. I look over to Jack to see his reaction. He’s one of the faces that are

curious. 

“Sorry, I tell him. I know it sounds like I’m a f*cking nuts,” I chuckle.

                “Don’t apologize, I’ve got some qualities that are far from normal society too.” He states. Now

I’m the curious one. I’m about to ask what they are when he cuts me off, “Not now. We can talk later.

Give me your phone,” I hand over my phone and see that he put his phone number in it, then called

himself to have my number too.

                “There, now that that’s done, I’m driving you home.” He states taking control of the situation.

                “Wait, but we still haven’t gotten to eat, and even more so, Jojo and I drove in together.” I

inform him.

                “That’s ok my be… friend can drive her home.” Referring to Sebastian. I wonder what he was

going to say before he cut himself off. Just as he gets up to leave the waitress comes over with two

glasses of water. “Bonjour and good afternoon ladies… oh! I didn’t realize there were more of you. Will

your two parties be merging today?”

                “No, we’re leaving,” Jack says while simultaneously I say “yes, thank you.”

                Jack looks at me with a mildly annoyed expression. “Darlin’ we need to get you home.”

                I stare back at him with the same expression, “And I said that we still haven’t been able to eat.

Jojo and I are hungry, and we’re here to celebrate my promotion. Now if you would like to sit here and

join her and I, you’re more than welcome. Otherwise I can call you later.”

                I hear his friends snicker and look at each of their faces to try unsuccessfully to contain their

laughter. It’s almost as if no one has ever told him no before. Well tough s**t, he’ll just have to get used

to it.

                He sighes and looks back at the waitress. “I guess we’re merging our two parties then ma’am.”

After all of our orders were put in; I got the French toast, Jojo got the pancakes, Sebastian got

the breakfast burrito and Jack got an egg white omelet with wheat toast on the side and berry jam. I

scowl thinking to myself, how am I supposed to be fat if he’s going to make me feel bad for pigging out

while he orders healthy stuff?! I start to think of ways that I can corrupt him. No way am I going to be

the only one with thunder thighs in this relationship! Relationship? I question my own thoughts. Slow

down there girl we don’t even know his last name, or if he’s a decent person, or even more importantly

if he goes down on you as equally as you go down on him. My inner monolog is cut off by Jack.

“What are you thinking about so hard, Darlin’?” He asks.

“How I can make you fat.” I answer honestly.

He looks at me and scoffs. “It’s going to take a lot for you to do that, sweety, I actually like to eat

healthy and on top of it my team here and back at our estate and myself get up each morning at 5:30 to

do extensive training regimes.”

                I’m shocked to hear that since I can’t stand to wake up before the sun. That’s just sacrilegious. I

state my thoughts out loud and the group of guys laugh at me. Before I know it, we’re all finished with

our meals and are getting up to leave. Just as I’m doing so a gust of wind blows up my skirt a few inches

causing my lace garters to show. Thankfully no one was looking, or I thought no one was. I soon hear a

very deep growl and I look over to Jack and notice his eyes are black and he’s looking at me with so

much lust in his eyes I feel myself get wet instantly. He closes his eyes and takes a deep breath. When he

opens them again I can’t tell if it’s better or worse. He now has the same lust filled look, but it’s added

with some… pain? Why would he be in pain? A thought pops up in my mind, “I wonder if he can smell

me, and that’s causing him discomfort because he can’t do anything about it since we’re in public.”

His eyes lift up to my face and I involuntarily bite my lip while a small moan escapes. “Don’t do

that now, Darlin’. You’re going to start something that I’ll be glad to finish.’ Jack states.

“What would that be?” I ask seductively. I’m surprised at my boldness, but I also like it.

“You’re gonna have to find out later.” He states while throwing way too many bills on the table

to cover the bill. He grabbed my hand and I jump a little since I feel as if there’s sparks shooting

between. I look back into Jack’s eyes. His expression is one of love and admiration.

“Jack…” I state.

“I know Darlin’, I feel them too.” He pulls my hand up to his lips and kisses it. If I could fall in love

in an instant, now would be that time. My mouth widens into a smile and Jack smiles back. We walk out

hand in hand to the valet where we retrieve our keys. It seems the guys came in two vehicle while Jojo

and I came in one. Since there were three vehicles Jack and I decided to ride together while Sebastian

and Jojo rode in the second car. The rest of the guys decided to pile into the last vehicle.

“I’m so sorry! I didn’t get to meet the rest of the guys you were with! Can I be introduced?” I

asked while feeling bad since I acted as if they didn’t exist.

“Of course. This guy here, standing next to Sebastian, is Josh,” he pointed to a guy over 6 ft tall

of Asian descent, “The two other guys talking between themselves are Harry and Eddie.” He said while

pointing to two more guys over 6 ft tall that were white and African American respectively. “Actually

Sebastian and Josh are my best friends in the whole world. While I’m good friends with Harry and Eddie I

never know whether if I like or hate them more.” I look at him confused. ”Remember the early morning

training I mentioned?” I nod my head. “Well they’re the head trainers.”

“Oh wow! That’s awesome!” I exclaim. It really was. It’s nice to know that he has a group of

people that he trusts explicitly. As our cars pull up into the valet area, I get into the passenger seat while

Jack get in the driver side. I sit back and relax for the drive home.

*** Jack POV ***

                As I’m driving back to Genevieve’s apartment, I can’t help but feel like the luckiest man on earth.

I’ve finally found my mate, at 28 years old I’ve been waiting to find her for 10 long years. On top of it all

she seems like she’s incredibly nice. Obviously super smart too since she just got partnership after only a

year and a half, and she’s dedicated since she has a second job that she hates, but she puts up with it to

save money and provide a better future for herself.

                I decide right then and there that I will give her everything she could ever want. If she wants a

mansion I’ll buy her one, if she wants 20 kids I’ll provide that to her too. Not sure if she will, but I’ll be

happy to try.

                I smirk at my last thought and look over to Genevieve and see her rolled with the window down

and looking deep in thought while the window is rolled down so she can feel the breeze on her face.

                “What’s going on in that beautiful mind of yours?” I ask her.

                “I’m just thinking about my vision. I know that it’ll come true, they all do. I just can’t

comprehend why Tanner would be kidnapping me in it. I mean ya we broke up because he became

super controlling, but I didn’t think that he would go to these lengths.” She states half in thought.

                “Has he been around since y’all broke up?” I ask her hoping that she’ll say no. I’m not jealous,

but this is clearly something that’s bothering her, and if something is bothering her at any time then I

plan to help resolve it any way I can.

                “He hasn’t been around in the sense that we hangout, I’m not someone that’s able to really

maintain friendships with previous exes. However, we live in the same area so I’ve seen him around

throughout the years. I just thought that we would go to the same places, but the vision is making me

reconsider that.”

                I’m secretly relieved that she’s not friends with any of her exes. Obviously she’s someone that

any man would want, and I don’t want to fight over her with someone that she’s close to. That wouldn’t

be fair to her.

                “How many exes do you have?” I ask.

                “Just 2. The first one was Anthony, and then the second was Tanner.” She answered.

                “I know why you and Tanner broke up, but why did you and Anthony?” I wasn’t trying to pry, I’m

just trying to figure out how someone could ever let her go.

                “I didn’t quite understand it, but Anthony stated that he met his mate. I’m assuming he meant

soul mate. I didn’t mind it too much, he was a nice guy, but there were no sparks or chemistry outside of

just enjoying each other’s company.” What she made about him finding his mate made me wonder if he

was a wolf too.

                “His mate?” I ask.

                “Ya, he was a little unusual he growled occasionally. Kinda like what I heard from you earlier.

Don’t think I didn’t catch that.” She stated while playfully poking my hand. I decided since she made a

small first contact I would go a little further and I put my hand on her bare thigh. I felt the sparks and I

immediately regretted this. Getting a b***r in her car on the way to her apartment to ensure her safety

is not the best time.

                “Speaking of unusual.” She said while dragging out her words. “You said that you have some

qualities that aren’t for normally society. What might those be?”

                I tensed. I knew I would need to tell her, but I didn’t think she would jump on it this quickly.

                “I want to tell you, and I will. If you want nothin’ more to do with me after that then that’s fine,

but I want to tell you when we’re sitting down, and in your apartment, not your car.” I said trying to buy

myself time to think of a way to break this to her easily.

                “Ok… that sounds a little odd, but I’ll trust you and wait.” She says

                My heart swells at the thought of her trusting me. For the remainder of the drive we sit in

comfortable silence while listening to the radio.
