It was too narrow for us to walk side by side, so Vic followed behind me, grumbling the whole time because lions had no stamina and he was tired. At one point, we reached an area on the cliff face that had lots of footholds for me and enough space for Vic to comfortably lie down. I frolicked around, showing off my agility and strength, scaling up and down the steep wall, too dangerous for any other species, but perfect for me. The deep blue ocean and light blue sky, along with the crash of the waves and the smell of salt in the air, turned the moment into a dream. Add in my mate looking on, one paw folded over the other and his head resting on them, looking perturbed about the walk but proud of the way I moved, and it was heaven.Maybe that’s really where I am. Heaven,I thought as I reared up and danced on my hind legs amongst the yellow and purple wildflowers clinging to the cliff.
Later that night, Victor took me to dinner in Carmel-by-the-Sea. This was where the real jetsetters came to blow their millions. There were Lamborghinis and Bentleys and more Rolls-Royces everywhere. After an extravagant dinner with every kind of fresh seafood imaginable, we hit the town to explore. Read: so I could go shopping!
I picked up every trinket, every little handbag, every article of clothing I saw, claiming everything I liked for myself. Whatever I wanted, I just handed over to the waiting store owner to ring up and it was mine. I didn’t need half that shit, I bought it because I could. I’d never experienced that kind of freedom with money before, and it almost became a game to look at Vic with pleading eyes, and see whether or not he’d be willing to buy me this crystalline figure or that scarf or that purse for the exorbitant price on the tag. Every time, he just smiled and said, “if it makes you happy.” Itdidmake me happy. It wasn’t just to be able to shop freely in a way I never had before, it was also the love behind it, coming from my fated mate and a damn good alpha.
With the shopping done, there was still just enough daylight to enjoy a California beach sunset. We took our shoes off and let them hang from our fingertips as we strolled through the damp, sun-warmed sand. Vic wrapped his heavy, muscular arm around my shoulders, and I wrapped mine around his waist. Even though his strides were much bigger, we kept perfect pace.
After a long stretch of strolling, I turned behind us to see a trail of our footprints left in the sand, my prints much smaller, with much less space between them, while Vic’s huge prints covered much more ground next to mine. The waves had faded or washed the prints away at certain points, but the trail extended for a long ways.
“Look, Vic.” He turned, but never took his arm off my shoulder.
“Beautiful. Perfect, just like you.” He looked down at me with a fond smile.
I pouted. “They’re not perfect. The waves broke the chain.”
“That’s why they’re perfect, because they’re imperfect. They’re representative of our journey together, you know?” He turned me to face him, gathering me up against his huge body with his huge arms. “I know our love story hasn’t been a fairy tale, but it’s been incredible and I wouldn’t change a single thing. I never thought I’d find my fated mate. I thought the whole thing was a bowl of crap being spoon-fed to dreamers and fools. I never dreamt you’d be exactly what I never knew I needed. Now I get to cherish you forever. I’m the luckiest alpha in the world.”
I ducked my head, letting it fall forward until my forehead rested on his chest. I was overtaken by the power of love surrounding both of us on that beach. It floated in the salty air, it crashed on the beach in the waves, the birds sang about it in their calls. It was everywhere, especially inside Victor and I.
“I don’t know,” I murmured, “I feel like I’ve seen the ‘billionaire gets new assistant who’s so sassy he falls in love’ in plenty of Hallmark movies.” A deep rumble sounded in Victor’s chest as he chuckled. “I’m just glad that sassy assistant was me. I never thought I’d have this, either. Millions of omegas can only dream of what I have. I keep wondering if I’ll wake up and you’ll be gone.”
Victor lifted my chin with a finger, making me look up at him. “You’re awake, Bobby. I’m not going anywhere. You belong to me now.” He leaned down and kissed me. Our lips touched, just as the last few golden rays of the dying light illuminated us on the beach, casting our shadows a mile long over the sand. His hand dropped lower on my back until it rested right above the curve of my behind. Arousal surrounded me, just as strong as the love I felt surrounding me from the natural world. It was one with the love, an extension of it. Love and lust joining together, all for my man.
“Ready to go home?” Victor asked. I heard the unspoken question in his voice, and after the perfect day, yes, I was ready for my king to have me.
“Let’s go, Boss Lion.” He answered with a growl, easily lifting me off my feet. He ran across the sand, carrying me as I laughed out loud, ready for a wild night with my alpha.

BOBBY
The sun wasdown when we got back to the resort. There was only the vast, calm darkness of the ocean, the constant soothing sound of the waves, the champagne, and the dreamy bed.
I kissed Victor again, long and hot, the moment we got inside the door. “Thank you for the perfect day, Victor.”
“There’s much more to come, Beautiful.”
“Like what, more mountain climbing?” I teased as he backed me toward the massive bedroom.
“I have to admit, that was pretty cool.”
“We goats are pretty talented.”
“You have a ton of talents, Bobby. I’m just wondering if they extend to the bedroom.”
“You bet your sweet ass they do.”
“Come show me.” We kissed our way over to the bed, Victor pulling me down on top of him.
I gave him one more kiss before I pulled back. “Wait, I need to freshen up first.”
Victor reached for a drawer in the bedside dresser. “While you’re in there, I got you a little gift. It’s up to you whether or not you choose to wear it.” That made my eyebrows lift in surprise. An extra twinge of arousal flowed down, down, down, making me even wetter than before. What did my alpha have in store for me?
The rectangular box was pink and done up with a velvety red ribbon. Something sexy to wear? I was all for it. I snatched the box from his hands and took off for the bathroom.
I took a quick but luxurious shower and opened the beautiful box. Inside was a pink silk robe with frills at the sleeves and at the hem. The very short hem. As soon as I put it on, I knew how little it left to the imagination because of the cool air puckering my sphincter in the back, and in the front, the very tip of my cock, which could be seen peeking under the delicate, transparent hem. I shimmied my shoulders in the mirror.I’m gonna knock Victor dead.
Victor gasped when I walked out on my tiptoes.
