Life had never been simple for the wolf. Growing up the eldest son of an Alpha, wearing the mantle of pack enforcer, shouldering the burdens that came with the title he claimed when he killed his old man for the leadership...all of it had been a hard road to walk. Yet the Locke pack had thrived and grown stronger since Adam became the Alpha. Even when the world came to know of the supernatural world he had managed to keep his own pack well under the public radar. It didn't hurt that his private security firm already had contracts with the Defense Department, and that none of the higher ups wanted to risk exposing the fact that they had werewolves serving as mercs/private body guards either. So after the initial panic died down Adam and his pack were still standing.
The move out to the city hadn't been ideal, yet after all the stress his sisters decided that their brother/alpha needed a well earned vacation. Granted he still held the reins, but at least he allowed himself to be talked into taking some time off...in the name of opening up another branch of the pack's firm out here. What should have been a simple downtime, filled with golfing and relaxing, became something more though when the wolf ran into the coyotes. Taking them under his protection hadn't been planned, nor had he ever intended to fall for the red head either. Yet after being alive for nearly ninety years Adam knew that life still held a fair share of surprises. Hell Meri's scent still drove the usually stoic wolf wild, and when he came home to find her cooking for him his heart started hammering away. All that self control barely held, but the wolf managed to keep himself in check as he stepped into the kitchen, though that faint glow of gold in his eyes could be seen.
"Smells delicious..." Oh the food did smell divine and the Alpha's stomach rumbled so slightly, yet as he stepped closer to her it wasn't clear if he meant the meal...or her. A single hand rested on the small of Meri's back as he stood behind her, and without saying another thing his warm breath was felt upon her neck as Adam leaned down to lightly nip at her neck.
