and how about I take you out to the Starlight Café for salmon night and we can get to know one another better?”
“Salmon night, wow. You know how to win a girl over.”
Cole smiled. He had a cute smile, and little dimples formed in his cheeks.
“Shall I pick you up or will you meet me there?” he asked.
She had to take that first step. “You can come pick me up. It’s 345 Sycamore Street, number 45.”
“Okay, I’ll be by around 6.30 p.m. if that’s okay with you?”
She nodded. She finished the wine. “I have to be going, but today’s been fun and I have myself a new car and a second date.”

Cole watched her drive away. Damn, he was hoping they’d be having sex right now. Although he hadn’t lied when he said he liked a woman who didn’t jump into a man’s bed. Some of the shifter women, especially when there were close to their mating cycle, did just that. He pulled on the front of his pants. Since they’d sat on the couch he’d had a continual erection and now it was hurting like hell. He made his way into the bathroom and unzipped his jeans and dug inside his boxers and pulled out the object in question. He wasn’t putting this hard on to waste. He moved his hand down his shaft and took a deep breath. He could still smell her. He loved her perfume, light and flowery, and the scent of her body too.
Cole moved his hand faster, closing his eyes and wondered what she’d look like naked. Wow, his release took him by surprise. He panted and groaned. That had been pretty good but he was still worked up over Sam. Maybe he’d go chop some more wood to get it out of his system some more.
He went outside and lined up the logs and began pounding on them. Looked like they might get some rain later. They needed it because the rain the other night hadn’t been nearly enough to lower the risk of forest fires. He turned around to see Liam and Lucy driving back in.
“How did Sam’s team do?” asked Cole.
“They won and Sam got a home run.” Liam pulled out his phone and showed Cole the photos of Sam in his uniform. He was missing one of his front teeth and was turning into quite the young man. His resemblance to Danny was uncanny.
“He’s going to be athletic just like his dad,” said Liam. “Only wish he could be here to see him and that Danny would have had more kids for me to spoil.”
“You can look forward to having your own,” said Cole, winking at Lucy.
“Do you guys want me to bring some beers out for you?” she asked.
“Sure. I have some in the fridge,” said Liam.
Lucy went inside while the two guys sat at the table. Lucy came back out and handed them the bottles.
“I’m going to grill some steaks, you want one Cole?” asked Lucy.
“Guess I wouldn’t say no.”
Liam took a sip of his beer. “So how did things go with Sam?”
“Why do you think I was chopping wood like a crazy bear?”
Liam laughed. “Humans need lots of wooing before you can make love to them.”
“Wooing,” said Lucy, lighting the grill.
“Yeah, I wooed you,” said Liam.
“You seduced me.” She blew him a kiss.
He loved these two and what they had. They were perfect mates.
“Whatever you want to call it, but make sure when you get Sam into bed you give her the slapping cock treatment.”
Lucy looked over at Liam. “That’s what you call it, honey,” said Liam.
“I know but that was for your ears only,” said Lucy.
“I take it you mean our clit beating technique?” asked Cole.
“You do know theirs are on the outside right?” asked Liam.
“I’m a doctor Liam. Yeah, I did know that.”
“But slap that cock around inside them and they come begging for more. Human men just don’t know how to bring on a good climax in their women.”
Lucy took two strides over to Liam and smacked him across the shoulders.
“You’re trash talking us humans,” she said.
Both Liam and Cole laughed and Lucy joined in.
