Note to Reader: Here's the end! (A dirty one so be warned lol). If you can leave me a review on any of the sites that sell my books (Amazon, Barnes and Noble, IBooks, etc.) I'd really appreciate it :).

Also, I'm probably going to leave the full version up until I complete my next novella- which means at least a week.  Just fair warning!


Two Weeks Later


"Oh shit."

I quickly turned down the heat on the sauce, but wasn't fast enough to prevent it from boiling over the sides and making a mess.

I sighed.

Just one more thing I'd have to clean up.

I'd finished work early and gone out to get groceries to make dinner. I wanted tonight to be nice.

It had been two weeks since we'd moved into the Alpha house.

The pack was still adjusting to having Lorenzo as the new Alpha, but from my impression of the things, the vast majority were happy and relieved.

Those who weren't kept it to themselves because they knew it wasn't a popular opinion.

As Second, I made sure I kept a close eye on those people.

One wrong move, and I was ready to hand their asses to them.

I took my duties seriously, more because of my love for Lorenzo than because of the tradition of the Second- but since the end result was the same, I didn't think it really mattered all that much.

All in all, everything was much better than I ever could have expected when I first walked into that tournament camp.

And I fell a little more in love with Lorenzo every day. Sappy, but true.

And I wasn't going to lie. Watching him be Alpha was sexy as hell.

Unfortunately, he'd simply refused to have sex until I was fully healed.

I appreciated the sentiment. I really did. But the frustration was rising.

Frankly, it was driving me up the wall.

I'd finally gone to Sam's new office here with our pack and made him write a note stating in clear terms that I was fine.

He'd smirked the whole time, but I didn't care if it helped me get what I wanted.

Yes, getting a doctor's note was a little extreme, but I was on the edge here.

And Sam could smirk all he wanted. It had felt so damn good to be able to offer him a home in our pack with us.

I was sure he'd gotten other offers, but he'd immediately responded with a yes.

We were lucky to have him.

I turned to the oven and got out the garlic bread, taking everything to the dining table.

I'd gotten out the good china and had even gotten candles for the occasion.

I checked the time and grabbed the lighter.

Lorenzo would be home any second now.

I'd just finished lighting the candles when I heard the key enter the lock to the front door.

"Something smells great!" Lorenzo said as he walked in, smiling at me.

He came over to hug me even as his eyes turned to take in the dinner I'd set up.
