Chapter 36

Jaxon could tell that Darian put a lot of thought into their date and from his reaction to Jaxon unintentionally implying that he liked hiking, Jaxon could tell that the sweet, huge werewolf had been worrying if he would be impressed by the hike for a date.

What Darian didn’t know was that after baking pumpkin pie, he could have made Jaxon run a marathon and he wouldn’t even mind.

But that was not the reason he was excited for the hike, well, not the only reason. He knew that Darian was an introvert who craved his own company and as an ambivert, he felt that way sometimes, especially after the day he had before.

Nothing monumental happened for the first part of the trip, Jaxon was too busy with counting squirrels to notice that they had been walking for quite a while.

Darian looked relaxed, seeming to enjoy the walk while Jaxon hopped, wandering off to the side of the trail only to be held back by Darian who still held on to his hand.
