The Dark Thrall Mating Olivia

Chapter Seventeen

I knew where he wanted to take her. He was a homebody and if I didn't force him out of the

house, he would stay at home. His nose buried in a thick book or working out in the gym until he collapsed. It was something that I loved about him, that there was no middle ground. Jay worked his body just as hard as he did his mind.

He was always game to let me distract him though and I couldn't wait for Olivia to join us. I

could picture her and Jay curled up on the couch in our living room. Her belly swollen with our child as they cuddled together. His hand resting on her stomach as he read out loud to our offspring. Making sure that our babies knew his voice just as well as their mother's.

It made me feel warm for all of the moments that I knew we were going to experience with her. I wanted that, to fall in love with her and have her love us too. To watch her body change with pregnancy. Her stomach swelling with our offspring, her tits growing full with milk.

My phone chimed and I let out a sigh, not wanting to leave my fantasy yet. I pulled it out of my jacket pocket, looking down at the unknown number before sliding my thumb across the green arrow. I lifted the phone to my ear, swallowing hard. "Hello?"

"Hi, is this Killian?" Her sweet voice asked and I had to fight down a groan at the way my name rolled off her lips.

"Sure is, sweetheart," I said, picking up my coffee and taking a long sip.

"It's Olivia, the uh, waitress from last night. You left your number and I talked to my alpha and well-" She said in a rush before trailing off. I could hear the nervousness in her voice. If I closed my eyes, I knew that I would be able to picture that pretty blush covering her pale skin. "Olivia," I said, "Do you have any plans for tonight?"

"No, well. I was going to watch a movie. But, no." she said and my lips twitched as I looked over at Jay. His head was tilted to the side and I knew that he was listening to our conversation. "Would you like to go on a date?"

"Yes, where did you guys want to go?" She asked and my heart did a funny little flip, she hadn't asked where I wanted to go. She had asked about both of us.

"Why don't you decide? We don't really know what's around here. How about we pick you up at

nine?" I asked, looking down at my coffee.

"Oh, um, could we maybe do a little earlier?"

I lifted an eyebrow at Jay and he mouthed the word six.

"Six sound better?" I asked, wondering why she needed to change the time.

"That would be great. I'll see you guys then." She said before ending the call.

Bouncing in my seat, I hung up the phone before tucking it back into my pocket as Shana brought over our food. I couldn't wait for our date with Olivia.

***Olivia POV***

I had just finished applying a deep red lipstick to my lips when the knock at the door came. It was too early to be Killian or Jay. Tossing my lipstick into my makeup bag, I flipped the light to the bathroom off and made my way to the front door.

Everly had already had her dinner but had started to doze off in her highchair, so I had cleaned her off before putting her to bed.

Opening the door, I smoothed my black tank top down. It was low cut and the push-up bra made me feel like my boobs were about to choke me. I hoped that it wasn't too much. I knew that I could count on Gloria to tell me if it was. She was also honest with me.

She stood on the porch, her head tilted to the side as she looked out at the night sky. Gloria turned to look at me, her chocolate brown eyes going wide. It had been so long since I'd had a reason to make myself pretty. Tonight I had curled my hair and brushed it out so that it fell in soft waves down my back.

I had spent time doing my makeup, lining my eyes in a deep black, and trying to do a smokey eye shadow to make my eyes pop. I wanted to look nice for Killian and Jay. I wanted them to be excited to take me out. Just as I was excited to go with them.

"Oh, sweetie, you look so pretty," Gloria said, stepping inside the house.

"You sure it's not too much?" I asked, looking down at my toes. Watching the glittery red polish sparkle in the light.

"We're shifters sweetheart, it's never too much when we're on the hunt." She chuckled and I closed the door.

"I'm not on the hunt with them."

"Maybe you're not, but I heard they were at the diner hunting you," Gloria said, taking off her shoes and sitting them by the door. "About scared poor Shana out of her skin."

"They went to the diner?" I asked, shifting from foot to foot.

"Talked to the alpha about you there. Pretty sure that Shana got caught flirting with Micheal again, that girl needs to get her head out of the clouds."

"It's just a crush, I don't think Micheal sees her as a potential mate," I said, tucking my hair behind my ear as I walked over to the couch. "I think he wants something like his dads have." "Maybe he does?" Gloria said, sitting her bag on the couch. "Then again, the moon goddess does as she pleases when it comes to mates. Sometimes, she gets it right. Others..."

I looked away from her, trying not to let the ache for what I couldn't have return and pull me under. It wasn't her fault things had happened the way that they had. She and Jose had stepped up more than I had ever hoped for with helping me take care of Everly.
