They sat in comfortable silence for a few moments, savoring the warmth of their connection. Jaxon's mind drifted to thoughts of the future, of a time when Delcy would be more than just his and Colton's date—when she would be their mate, their partner, their everything.
He imagined her living with them, sharing their space and their life. He imagined waking up in the morning to the smell of her hair, the sound of her laughter, the warmth of her body next to theirs. He imagined them cooking breakfast together, sharing stories about their day, and simply enjoying each other's company.
The thought of it filled him with a sense of peace and contentment that he had never experienced before. He knew that he had found something special in Delcy, and he was determined to do everything in his power to make her theirs.
They chatted for a few more minutes until her break ended. As Delcy stood, Jaxon pulled her in for a brief but heated kiss. When they parted, her lips were kiss-swollen and her eyes glazed. Jaxon smirked, immensely satisfied.
“I'll see you Saturday,” he said.
Delcy nodded mutely before returning to work.
Jaxon left the café feeling lighter than air. The future with Delcy shone brightly in his mind's eye. He imagined lazy weekend mornings together, wrapped in each other's arms.
Returning to Sterling Enterprises, he dove back into his workload. But Delcy was never far from his thoughts. He couldn't wait for their next date when he could continue courting her in the lavish style she deserved. For now, he relished the glow of new love that seemed to surround him. The threat of future storms seemed very distant indeed.

I took a deep breath as I fiddled with the strap of the dress that draped over my frame. It was nothing short of breathtaking, adorned with intricate lace detailing that clung to my slender figure, accentuating every curve with an almost bespoke precision. The soft hue of blue seemed to imbue my skin with an ethereal radiance.
Lydia had selected this dress for me with a keen eye, urging me to step out of my comfort zone and into something that whispered elegance and sexy rather than shouted simplicity—a far cry from the unadorned and modest attire I typically wear.
“You look absolutely stunning!” she gushed as she added the finishing touches to my makeup.
I smiled at her enthusiasm. Lydia seemed even more excited about this date than I was. She had been in an unusually chipper mood all afternoon as we got ready together in my small apartment.
“Did something good happen today?” I asked. “You seem really happy for some reason.”
“Oh, no, nothing in particular,” Lydia replied casually, though the grin remained plastered on her face. “I'm just so thrilled for you and this amazing opportunity.”
I nodded, though her over-the-top excitement struck me as odd. I pushed the thought from my mind as nerves began to take hold once again. This was my second date with Colton and Jaxon, and butterflies still fluttered in my stomach at the thought.
Our first date together had been an exhilarating whirlwind. When Colton and Jaxon had each leaned in to give me a goodnight kiss, the feeling of their lips pressing against mine had left me dizzy with desire and confusion. I had never experienced such an instant spark of attraction for any man before, let alone two stunningly gorgeous, successful billionaire alphas like the Sterling brothers.
Being the center of their attention made me feel treasured in a way I never had before, but it also left me conflicted. I was an inexperienced omega who had always been wary of alpha men. Yet somehow, I felt safe with them.
While the intensity of my attraction to them excited me, it also filled me with trepidation. I had never let an alpha get close to me, let alone two. But they had awakened feelings within me I could no longer deny. I was venturing into uncharted territory, and though it terrified me, I knew deep down that I wanted to explore it further with them.
I shook my head, trying to clear it and steady my nerves. I took a deep breath again as I slipped on the pair of heels Lydia had lent me. The stilettos were a shiny silver and at least four inches tall. I wobbled unsteadily, still not used to such spindly shoes. Fashion over function, Lydia always said.
But since I'm an aspiring fashion designer myself, I should become accustomed to this. Maybe someday my designs would gain widespread recognition and my public image would necessitate that I wear high heels such as these.
I tried to ignore the discomfort of the stilettos as I teetered across the room. Though fashion often demanded sacrifice, I couldn't deny the appeal of the heels. They elongated my legs and gave me a graceful poise I usually lacked. When I caught my reflection in the mirror, I had to admit I looked good. The sleek stilettos complemented the short dress.
“You have to show off those gorgeous legs tonight,” Lydia said.
I had to admit, I did feel sexy and sophisticated. If I was going to hold my own with two dominant alphas, I needed all the confidence I could summon.
I chuckled and said, “I feel like I could easily twist an ankle trying to walk in these things.”
Lydia snorted elegantly. “Just take small steps.”
The doorbell rang, and I jolted, my stomach flip-flopping, and my heart began to pound rapidly. Colton and Jaxon were already here.
I did a final check of my appearance in the mirror. My dark hair fell in soft waves over my shoulders, the ends gently brushing against my bare back where the dress dipped low. Lydia had taken extra care with my makeup, using a shimmery shadow on my lids that made my brown eyes pop in a way I wasn't used to. A touch of blush warmed my cheekbones, and my lips looked full and kissable coated in a rose-colored gloss.
The sleek stilettos made my legs look miles long. Paired with the short, figure-hugging dress, I looked elegant, sophisticated, and sexy—nothing at all like my usual casual self. I hardly recognized the confident, stylish woman staring back at me in the reflection. Everything about the look Lydia had helped me pull together exuded an allure that was new to me.
Lydia said, “Have fun. I'll see myself out. Now go.”
