It was a beautiful little restaurant overlooking the Pacific coast. They were shown a table on a wide veranda outside. Candle light illuminated the night along with the waxing of the moon. It would just be a couple more days till the full moon. The full moon in April, the fish moon, so called because this is the time that the shad swim upstream to spawn. Werewolves do so love to get a little crazy during the full moon. Marcus anticipated being busier than normal because so many visitors were still in town. "Cally," "Hmm?" She looked away from the waves and stared at her chosen escort.
"The full moon is full in 5 days. I will be getting increasingly busy. Let's plan our next rendezvous for 8 days from now. I'll cook for us if you are willing to come to me at that time. I do a mean porterhouse steak." Cally's eyes shined in the dim light with surprise. "Marcus, we have barely started this date and you are planning our next? I... I don't know what to say." "What do you want to say?" He had expected an immediate answer and was slightly disappointed she didn't answer immediately. Cally blew out a breathe and smiled, "Christmas came early this year? You can cook? You are willing to cook for me? You are willing to be alone with me? It must be my birthday and Christmas!"
Marcus laughed, "Yes, Yes, and yes. When is your birthday? By the way?" Even probing into her past didn't change her pleased smile. "Umm, I have no idea. Probably sometime in May." Their food arrived and they sat quietly enjoying their food with a crisp Sauvignon Blanc. Small talk not involving her past or his work was shared such as shared interests, people that had come and gone from Clan Home, likes and dislikes. Marcus talked of his family and friends. Cally knew several of his family. He liked coconut while she detested it. "If you get beaned in the head enough you wouldn't like it either." He smiled, "That is a non-sequitur. How did you get hit by multiple coconuts?" "Well there was this not so deserted island. The natives liked to throw coconuts or nux indica at unsuspecting castaways."
Marcus had never had such a wonderful evening with a beautiful partner. Cally, herself, was wondering how to make the night last for a thousand years. "We need to head back to guild hall, Cally." "I know I know. I just don't want this to end. Have you ever seen something you wanted so much that you were afraid to look away in case it was gone?" Cally stood and waited by the low railing surrounding the veranda watching the white caps hit the beach as Marcus paid the tab.
Marcus reached out and lifted her hand to his lips. "Have I told you how beautiful you are tonight?" "Not in the last few minutes." She smiled. "Then I am remiss. You, Cally Wotan are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen." She bowed her head as she accepted his compliment. "You, Marcus Knight are all my dreams rolled into one package." Her held her hand as he walked her out to the carpark. He again handed her into her seat and buckled her in as before.
He drove slightly faster back than he had earlier. She leaned her head on his shoulder and continued to hold his hand as he drove. Soft music played. Cally thought everything was idyllic. She didn't remember the last time she was this content in her heart. She put some effort into thinking. Greece, it was Greece when she was this happy. His name was Eneas, he was human and he had looked almost exactly like Marcus. He sounded like Marcus, he acted like Marcus. She looked at the Adonis beside her. Dear Gods how she hoped she had found him again. Please let him love her like last time.
Once back at guild hall Marcus handed Cally out of the car as a perfect gentleman. "Cally would you be willing to come to my rooms for a night cap?" Cally looked at him with stars in her eyes. "Marcus, if it's just a night cap. I'll be going on to my room. However if it is something more? If you want something more of me. I will be happy to follow you to your rooms." She leaned her body into his and looked up at him. Together they closed the distance and kissed. His tongue pushed into her mouth swiftly. Licking and sucking at her tongue and lips. He pulled her tighter. The kiss was almost bruising in its intensity. When she was almost out of air, his head moved to her neck. Right above her delicate collar bone he sucked and bit strongly. He pulled back looking at his handy work, it wouldn't last long, but he wanted to see his mark on her. "Yes, my answer is yes."
