Noah stepped forward and placed the necktie over my eyes. | held it in place with one hand while he tied it in
the back, the cool flesh of his fingers brushing against the nape of my neck as he did so.
“Thanks for complying with me,” he said once he had finished tying it. | heard his footsteps clicking against the
tiled floor and his breath fanning across my exposed shoulder as he walked back around me. | promise it'll be
worth it.”
hope so.” | said with a nervous chuckle. There was no denying the way my heart pounded in my chest, the way
my pulse kicked up just at the thought of what he might have in store for me.
Noah... Why was he surprising me, and what was he surprisingwith? | didn’t want to get my hopes up.
but it was hard not to.
He hadn’t been spontaneous and romantic like this in well, years, and a small part of me-the part that was still a
young, hopeless romantic with stars in her eyes, just wanting to be swept off of her feet- hoped that whatever it
was would just be the beginning.

And maybe, just maybe, there would be a way to rekindle what we had lost.
But that was just wishful thinking, right?
Finally, | heard the door to our private room creak open. | took a shaky step forward, my hands groping out in
front of me-only for them to be met by a set of cool, steady fingers wrapping around them.
“Here,” Noah said softly, placing his other hand on my lower back as he steered me.
| felt a shiver of anticipation run down my spine at his touch. It was like ice cold water through the thin fabric of
my dress, both shocking and exhilarating. | didn’t pull away, instead letting him gently guideinto the room.
And then....
“Voila.”
Noah pulled the necktie off of my face with a flourish, and instantly, a gasp escaped my lips. My hand. clapped
over my mouth, my eyes widening as | saw the spread in front of me, and it was all | could do to whirl around to
face Noah with an incredulous look on my face.
“Noah, did you...?”
Uncharacteristically for the usually-stern and stoic Alpha, Noah grinned and nodded. He gently tookby the
shoulders and guidedover to my chair.
“You like it?” he asked, gesturing to the array laid out in front of us.
“Like it?” | echoed. My eyes wandered the long white tablecloth, upon which was laid out a dizzying array of
various small dishes-samples of shrimp, scallops, fine cuts of beef, saucy pasta, flaky spanakopita, vibrant
vegetables, slices of cake.
It was a veritable feast, although each plate contained hardly more than a bite of each dish to be sampled.

“I love it,” | finally breathed.
Noah let out a soft breath that almost sounded like one of relief as he pulled my chair out for me. “Good,” he
said, pushing my chair in once | had sat down. “I called the chef ahead of tand asked him to prepare
samples of everything on the menu.”

He paused, eyeing a few plates of mussels and clams and other fragrant seafood that | couldn't even identify.
“Although, it seems he also took the liberty of making a few things that aren’t on the menu as
well.”
All I could manage to do was blink owlishly as | took in the spread. Noah sat at the chair across from me, his gaze
patiently fixed on me.
“But... why?” | murmured. “Why go to all this trouble?”
Noah simply shrugged. “I felt bad for not being the first to offer trying new foods with you,” he said, his voice
shockingly soft. “So | thought it would be nice to surprise you. And...” He paused to push a plate of pasta over to
me. “If there's anything you really like, I've hired the chef here part-tto cand cook for you at home.”
“At home?”
He nodded. “Yep. Mondays and Wednesdays, he'll cto cook you dinner at home. Whatever you like, and
however much of it you like.”
