I got out of the car and went into my house. Now the wine was lukewarm. I sprayed my silk dress with stain remover and stood there in my soaked underwear and bra. I needed to get out of these wet clothes. While I applied the stain remover to my underwear, I wondered what I'd signed up for. I didn't even know his name. I'd show up at the Columbia tomorrow. If he was just pigging me or something, I'd go home after 10 minutes. There was something about him, though, that made me think that he'd actually show up. I wondered what his surprise would be.

Gatorade
JASPER
From the moment I smelled her, I knew that I'd found our mate. Blue would be mad that he'd missed out on it, but he'd be meeting her tomorrow at dinner. I thought about texting Blue about it, but I'd wait for my beta to get home after his basketball game. I didn't want to shower, because I still could smell her on my body from her proximity in my car. My shoulders were tense on the drive home. I didn't know how to break it to her that she was our fated mate when she’d met me for only a few moments. I needed her. I wanted to drive back to her home and spend the night with my nose in her hair, my hand on her hip, her head on my bicep as we slept together. But if I moved too fast, she'd be scared. She'd met me once in her whole life. It wasn't like she knew for sure that she was the one for me and my beta, for the rest of our lives. She didn't even know my name yet.
I felt itchy in my human skin, so I shucked my clothing off and went for a run in wolf form. I didn't go far from home, though, because my sense of time in wolf form was iffy. I could sense my beta, though, so I could feel him getting closer when his game ended. I shifted back into my human form when he arrived at our house and put on shorts.
"Hey, man." Blue was chugging a bottle of Gatorade. "What's that smell?" He smelled the air and cocked his head. He came closer to me and took a bigger whiff, a confused expression on his face.
"I met our mate today."
The orange Gatorade sprayed across the floor. "What?"
"Yup. Met her in a bar."
His eyes were wide. "What do you mean you met her in a bar?"
I shrugged. "Exactly what I said."
"How is that possible?" He stared at the puddle of orange Gatorade on the ground. "What does she look like?"
"Smooth brown skin. Beautiful smile. Her eyes are the color of chocolate."
Blue whistled. "I can't wait to meet her."
"I already set up a date."
Blue raised his eyebrows. "You work fast."
"What can I say? I always get what I want." Blue was much more low key than I was. I was an aggressive, decisive Alpha. When I wanted something, I would not stop until I got it. And our mate was worth the fight.
"Am I invited?"
"Of course."
"Does she know that there are two of us?"
"Not yet. I just met her. I don't want to scare her off."
Blue grabbed paper towels so that he could clean up the mess he'd made. He mopped up the Gatorade. "She smells good at least."
"Even if she looked like Quasimodo, I'd still take her home. But she's beautiful."
"Curvy?" Blue asked, licking his lips. I could see the amber ring in his eyes showing that his wolf wanted to meet his mate, too.
"You know it. Fate wouldn't gi
ve us anything else."
Blue whooped. He was always more visibly emotional than I was. "Hot damn. How fast do you think we can put cubs inside of her?"
"I forbid you to talk about cubs during our dinner. We're going to the Columbia."
Blue wrinkled his nose. "I'm going to have to wear a suit."
