Aleksa POV
When Kingston invited me out for lunch, I tried to contain my excitement.
It’s not a date Aleksa. We’re just getting a bite to eat.
Why was I so taken with this guy? If anything, I should be anti-male right now. After what I’d been through. But I needed to remind myself that this was a fresh start. I’m not that girl anymore. It was time to live a little, to have a bit of fun, and to learn to trust people again. I had trusted Mason and Kaia, and they are like family to me now. Goddess knows where I would be if it weren’t for my friends helping my pups and me to escape.
We had reached our lunch destination. It looked like a quaint little Italian pizzeria. When we walked through the door, the server made a beeline for Kingston. She was tall, blonde, and had a slender figure.
