"What's this?"
"Payment, a bet's a bet," Clay said sliding into the chair across from him. "Terms were loser forks over a bottle of bourbon."
"Well, well, never thought I'd see the day," Pete started grinning ear-to-ear. "Surprised you actually admitted it."
"Tried denying, it fighting it, I even tried being such a tool she would storm out. None of that worked." He ran a hand through his hair exasperatedly. "Pete I know what's a stake ok? But I'm crazy about her."
"Wow you have got it bad," "that would explain the lilac perfume it's all over you."
"Shut up," he tried to deflect but the scent, especially for a couple of wolves, was clear and present. "I don't know how I let it happen. Elena, she's amazing and I can't imagine not having her."
"I've known you a long time Clayton," "You were what 11-12 the first time Jeremy had me run with you to keep an eye on you? What I'm hearing now is a far cry from that moody young boy back at Stonehaven. I've never seen you like this before."
"I've never felt like this about anyone before."
"What's Jeremy gonna say?" Pete started cracking up he couldn't help it, who in the Pack would've ever seen this coming? "he finds out his always dutiful son is in love."
"Tell him," he leaned in voice low and threatening now. "And I'll use that bottle to break open your head."
"You really love her," "look, man, I'm happy for you but you and I both know if you want any kind of future with her Jeremy has to know."
"I know I know," "he's not just my alpha he raised me. How the hell am I supposed tell him I'm breaking every rule we have?"
"Wait, every rule?" Pete's eyes got wide. "You haven't told her what we are, have you?"
"Of course I haven't." He ran a frustrated hand through his hair. "What am I going to say? Elena, I love you but I also have this habit taking off my clothes and turning into a wolf?"
"Well, I wouldn't lead with that no. You're in uncharted territory here man. What you do next has to rely on being more human than wolf."
"I have to this right," He closed his eyes trying to will complicated answers to come to him. "You know what being in the Pack means to me. I don't want to break off but I can't lose her."
"You know I'm a big believer in fate," Pete clapped the younger wolf on the shoulder. "Always have been, if something's meant to happen it'll happen."
"Yeah right," Clay scoffed again, if fate was real than it was a fickle bitch. "oh that bottle is almost as old as we are, don't drink it all in one night."
"Nah I got a better idea," he took a minute to inspect the bottle and label. "Think I'm gonna save it, we'll open it to celebrate your wedding."
"Wedding?" Clay repeated in a hollow laugh. "Now who's living in the fantasy world?"
"Oh, ye of little faith."
