Storm's pov...

I rode shotgun in the Ford truck back to the pack house. "Excuse the mess.", she says "I don't have a lot of co-pilots and I've been driving a few days.", she says about her scattered bags, blanket pillows and electronics in the back.

"No problem, I've seen Jay's trick. It makes this look clean.", I say as she smirks and chuckles.

"I'm just saying I'm not always this messy.", she says " but last night I couldn't find a empty hotel exit and had to sleep in here."

"Ouch!", i say.

"Eh, slept worse places", she says still happy.

"So why is a pretty lady like you still single?", I ask.

"Scars and baggage my good man.", she says " I have PTSD and I'm told my face scar from the shrapnel is hideous." as she exaggerates the last part.

"You look good to me.", I say.

"That's only half my face you see cowboy. It's cost me work as well.", she says.

"Then there stupid.", I say as we pull in and I reach over pushing her hair back.

There on her other eye its obvious she had badly been hurt.
The scar goes from the eyebrow to her upper cheekbones and close to her ear.

"Alexis, don't doubt yourself. Scars and all your a beautiful women.", I say honestly as I hold her gaze " I'll even get your door to prove it." at which i hop out and use my speed to get her door.

I'm rewarded with that gorgeous chuckle as I offer a hand which she takes causing her to gasp at the tingles making me chuckle.

"Well we better get to work.", she says hopping down not moving her hand away but grabbing a computer bag.

"Then this way ", I say putting her hand on my arm as I lead her to where my pack's techs are trying to find what hacked our database.

My boys are frantic as Jay mentions different things to try.

"What's the sitch Jay?", she asks studying the screen.

"The virus has spread to all pack files and we cant keep up.", he says as she looks in thought.

She looks down to Jeff, a 34 year old with blue eyes and blond hair. "Here scootch an let me see what I can find.,, she says as Jeff looks at her in disbelief.

"Look doll face just cause Storm decided you'd be a good lay doesn't make you a computer expert.", he says as I pinch my nose as I growl at his disrespect of his Luna.

"Well Sparky we know why your single. Now move so I can try and help fix it as your Alpha requested.", she says pointing to me" And if you ever talk down to me again you better make an appointment with a proctologist, because when I'm done you will have to surgically remove my boot."

Gotta admit that was hot. Especially the tone of authority her voice carried.

"Jeff better listen. Al will beat you senseless. ", Jay says looking smug.

Reluctantly Jeff moves as I glare at him.

'Never disrespect her again!', I say to him in the mind link.

She gets right to business as she types multiple lines of codes.

"Wow got some sick spyware attacking.", she says as I lean on her chair as Jay pulls next to her.

"Now she thinks she's found what I couldn't.", huffs Jeff as she rolls her eyes.

"No she's right. Dude she's a former computer tech\ hacker for the military.", Jay says " And she won't hesitate to break your balls."

"So Jeff. Shut up!",I say using my Alpha tone.

"Easy boys he's just mad cause this happened cause he was surfing porn.", she says as she keeps typing "and I just fixed it."

"Smart and beautiful.", I say as she blushes.

"Thank you so much Al, you saved date night.", Jay says picking her up in a bear hug.

"Yer welcome.", she says as he sets her down and she fixes her hair to hide her scar.

He then shoots down the hallway to get ready for said date.
As she chuckles.

"So Mr.Alpha how about showing me around.", she says to me making my inside do flips from a chance to get to know my mate.

"Town or the pack house?", I ask holding her gaze.

"Depends on how much time you have. It be nice to know my way around town. But if you wanna show me the house I'm game there too.", she says smiling.

"If that's the case then I'll tour you both.", I say "Starting with the house." and I don't miss her eye twinkle.

Alexis pov....

Storm seemed so elated to show me around. I admit the pack house was pretty cool. Now we're walking around town. It's a cute town. I loved the way it felt hanging with Storm more.

I loved the way my body tingled when he touched me. The way his eyes twinkled when he was excited. Especially liked how he looked at me like I was the only woman who existed.

Its like I feel connected and safe with him. Its a New and scary feeling. But I wanna explore it, and see where it goes. And I just met him.

I can't explain why I wanna kiss that smirk, or touch his hair.

Eventually we come to a old forgotten bar.

"This bar marks the line between my pack an the next. ", he says " but it went under cause the owners kids took over and it went down hill."

"Location is really good.", i say surveying it "is that a apartment?"

"Yea the old man lived there.", he says nostalgically "my parents met here."

"I bet it just needs the right person to clean it up.", I say.

"Yea your right. Say are you hungry?", he says.

"Sure food sounds good.", I say

"Good then I'll buy you dinner.", he says leading me in a diner.

Its a seat yourself place so we grab a booth.

"What can I getcha handsome says a blonde as she hurries over. I notice she's leaning a bit far.

"Bacon cheeseburger, fries, and a coke.", he says.

"Ah a man after my own heart. The same.", I say handing her the menu as she takes his.

We begin to chat more about ourselves as she goes an comes back. I ask him about wolves, he's more than willing to answer my questions. We also exchange stories about Jay.

I don't think I've ever felt this comfortable with another person. It just rolls naturally.
Odd since I've been on my own since I entered foster care, and am again now that I've been discharged permanently.

After dinner we walk some more.
"So lets play 20 questions.", he says as we head towards his pack house.

"Sure. I'm game. You first.", I say.

"What's your favorite color?", He asks.

"Don't have one. ", I say grinning
" You."

"Blue. Favorite animal.", he says.

"Wolves.", I say teasingly "Got a tattoo of one. Favorite food?"

"Doritos.", he says as I giggle "you."

"Pot stickers. Any ink.", i ask.

"Just my wolf on my shoulder." he says pulling the sleeve up.

"Wow are all you wolves built like that?", I say as he smirks.

"Just the lucky ones. Favorite movie.", he says

"Princess Bride. ", i say

"Ah my name is Inigo Montoya you killed my father now prepare to die.", he says

"Now thats hot.", I say teasingly as he smiles "So can I see your wolf?" smirking at his surprise.
