Alpha & Omega (Alpha's Rejects #4)

Neither Kingston nor I could take time off from work on the weekends. It was way too busy for us, so we chose to go on our date on Wednesday night, his day off. I usually worked Wednesday nights, but I had some flexibility because I had enough staff for it.

Hudson insisted on staying the night at Oliver’s place, his best friend. They would go to school together in the morning, which was fine, since his last day of school was on Friday. My son insisted I needed some alone time if my date worked out. I wasn’t sure if I should’ve felt grateful or worried he knew way too much about the need for sex.

I picked out a popular gastropub near the waterfront at Harbor Place, sitting outside with a view of the water. I’d been there before, so I knew the place had good food.

My slightly trembling hands grew clammy, and I kept wiping them on my jeans while I waited for Kingston. I could be a confident man, but damn, it’d been so long since I’d done this with very little experience in dating men in general.
