CHAPTER SIXTEEN

It was near eleven when Vivian watched Callum climb through the hatch.

She had no idea what to expect tonight, but despite her nerves, she was determined to ask him to make her come.

Taking a breath to steel her nerves, she waited for him to stand.

His smile was bright, and he took a deep breath, almost like he was breathing her in, even though he was across the room. He held up a backpack. “How about a movie tonight?”

She tilted her head. “What movie?”

“You said you like event planning, so I was thinking, The Wedding Planner. Have you seen it?”

She shook her head.

“It’s a romantic comedy with Matthew McConaughey and J.Lo. Sound okay?”

Her lips pursed in amusement. He wanted to watch a rom-com with her? “Are you okay with that? Wouldn’t you rather watch an action flick?”

“Honestly, yeah.” His grin was light. “I’m more of an action flick guy, but I’m good with this. Besides, if we get bored, it’s the perfect excuse to fool around a bit.”

Her eyebrows rose, and she felt her cheeks heat. “Okay.” The word came out as a squeak, rather than the seductive plea she’d been hoping for. Wincing, she glanced down.

He stepped closer. “We don’t have to do that.”

Vivian’s gaze darted up to his. He looked concerned. “No, no!” She waved her hands. “It’s not that. Not at all.”

The concern melted into a knowing smile. “Before I set this up, though, I thought we could get to know each other a bit better.”

“Okay.”

Callum sat on the bed and patted it.

Keeping a few feet between them, Vivian sat, watching him.

Was he going to kiss her now? Was getting to know each other code for sex?

“Do you have any questions for me?”

Vivian narrowed her eyes. “What kind of questions?”

“Like,” Callum stared off as he thought, “jobs, friends, taste in music. Anything.”

“Oh.” Vivian chewed her lip. “I know you’re Elliot’s cousin, but that’s about it. You’re American?”

“Yeah. I’m from Maine. My mom is from here, though. She and Elliot’s mom are sisters. When my dad mated my mom, he asked her to move to the States where he was from. He was beta of our pack until he and Drew’s dad retired a few years ago, and Drew and I took over the pack.”

Vivian’s brows rose. “You’re pack beta?”

Pride beamed from his smile. “Yes. Drew is my best friend and my alpha. Our pack is small though, nothing like this pack. There’s maybe fifty of us. Would you ever consider moving there?”

“Moving to Maine?”

“Yeah.”

“I never thought about it before, but sure.” She shrugged. “Why not?”

“Really? That simple?”

Vivian laughed. “Yeah. Wherever you want to go is fine.”

Callum frowned. “That’s not what I mean. Not what I want.”

Now Vivian scowled. “You don’t want me to move to Maine?”

“I do,” he clarified, “but I want you to want to move.”

“I don’t understand.”

“Are you just placating me? You’ll move wherever I want you to?”

“Yes.”

He set the backpack between his feet and pinched his brow. His sigh was heavy. “You’ll move wherever
