Brooklyn

I'd just about given up hope on ever feeling my heat.

By the time most she-wolves were my age, they'd already settled down and had at least one pup. Instead, I felt like I was dead inside until I met Hudson a few months ago.

He ignites a spark in me, something I think could be more.

My love life is looking up, and I think I'm finally ready to take the next step.

Not just because things were...awakened...today.

But because Hudson is perfect. He's sexy, thoughtful, attentive.... We can talk for hours about the books we love. And when I said I didn't want to go too far too fast, he was okay with that. He's never pushed for more than kissing. When I told him I wasn't ready to have sex yet, he was okay and didn't try to make me feel guilty.

It made me like him even more.

Today...today I'm ready.

And I'm going to tell him.

I take a sip of my cappuccino as I look at him. Goddess, he's handsome.

Tall and muscular but not too bulky, and I love how his curly chestnut hair falls into his green eyes.

Hudson catches me staring at him as he reads, looking up and flashing me that sexy, playful grin of his.
