Dax laughed, “I’m not sure how I should take that.”
“It’s a compliment, boss. You landed a hell of a mate. She is good for you, that’s what I’m trying to say.”
“And you’re good for me too,” she said as she sidled up to him as he sat in his chair, putting an arm around his shoulder.
“It’s about time at least one of us got a mate,” Dayton chimed in.
“I am happy to be the one to crack the rank and file of the five most eligible bachelors in Fae Crossing.”
“Really? Five most eligible, huh? Four now, I guess.”
“If you’re into shifters, yeah,” Bloom winked. “Took a little work, but I got over myself.”
Dax and the rest laughed at that. “I had a little getting over myself to do as well.”
“That’s for sure,” Bloom cracked, eliciting more laughs.
“All’s well that ends well, babe,” Dax offered.
“Bro, you’re turning into a poet, jeez.”
“No, man, just expanding my horizons.”
Bloom gave him a quizzical look.
“You’ll see,” he said with a wink.
She didn’t ask any further questions.
Good. He wanted it to be a surprise anyhow.
“Okay, boys. Hope you don’t mind, but I am stealing my man away.”
The pack all put their hands up, presumably to make it clear that far be it for them to stand in the way of Bloom’s wishes, especially where their alpha was concerned.
“You both have my blessing,” Dayton said, in a kingly voice.
Bloom laughed appreciatively as Dax got to his feet. “Where did I find you guys again?”
With that they were off. He had a few things planned for her.

“Where are we going?”
“Oh, nowhere special,” he teased.
“Dax, don’t play with me. You know I hate surprises!”
“What are you talking about, I thought you loved them?”
“I love them and I hate them,” she responded, as if there was no inherent conflict in the statement.
“Of course,” Dax replied. “If you must know, we are going to The Tree.”
“The Tree?MyTree? Why?”
“You’ll see.”
