Chapter 1

A few days later…

“So, you remember the plan…?” Vanessa asked her husband Matt anxiously.

Rolling his eyes, “Yes love…!” He muttered out sarcastically, whilst they were driving towards one of the family’s business premises, they owned a few buildings in town and across the country.

The Hunter family had their hands in many ventures and were doing rather well financially.

“Don’t get cocky with me…” She argued, giving him a glare, “I just want things to look like it happened naturally…”

Sighing, he reached out and took her hand, giving it a gentle squeeze, ”I understand and I am sorry for upsetting you.” He responded, “I will make sure that Cade is in my office, facing the showroom floor, making sure that at all times he is facing your section. So that when your client walks in, he has a full view and then we can take things from there and I will keep you informed of his “hidden” reactions, since I know him better than anyone else around.”

Giving her husband a smile, “Thank you…” She spoke, “Just trust me on this…I think it’s going to be the ice-breaker.”

Matt gave his wife a sideways glance, before returning his attention on to the road.

“Amen to that…” He responded, never doubting his wife’s intentions, it’s one of the reasons he loved her so much and thankful that she was his soul mate, “Cade really needs to get out of his foul mood, lately it is starting to affect business and with the kids leaving soon for college, he has become grouchier, worse than a bear.”

Vanessa nodded her head, agreeing with Matt, both becoming quiet, deep in thought, as they finally reached one of the uniquely privately owned car dealerships the Hunter family owned.

Vanessa was one of the top sales women, whilst Matt was part owner of the large company, together with his brothers, though he mostly dealt with the accounts/ bookkeeping.

Their parents had retired, leaving the businesses in the capable hands of their three sons.

Luke was the one who handled the social scene, together with his wife, Sasha, bringing in new clients, near and far, they would always be out and about, mixing with the rich, as well as organizing events for the company.

Cade, who was the oldest of the siblings, handled the rest of the business, as well as being part of the team, that designed some of their unique custom cars, overseeing the design and completion of each vehicle.

In addition, the business was a front, Cade, was actually the Alpha of the Hunter pack, Matt was Beta and Luke was Delta.

The business was a way for them to blend in with the humans, as well as being a financial source of income for keeping their pack running.

It was not the only business they had, but this one dealt exclusively with custom-built vehicles for privileged wealthy customers, which in turn funded most of their privileged lifestyle, as well as funding for certain charity organizations that the family was part of.

Matt helped his wife out of their luxury vehicle, his hand automatically going to her lower back, both making their way to the premises, greeting staff as they made their way in.

Vanessa’s client would be arriving soon and she was excited for the family to meet the woman that she knew would somehow break the barriers of the older Hunter brother, she could not pinpoint how she knew, it was an instinctual feeling on her part.

In addition, even if things didn’t work out with Cade, Vanessa had over the past two weeks gotten to know her client over the course of their acquaintance and she had liked the woman on the spot, they had become instant friends and Vanessa was sure that everyone would love her.

Matt gave his wife a kiss, “Right…let us get this show on the road.” He teased, tapping her on her butt, then giving her a wink, as he made his way to his office, whistling a happy tune as he went.

Vanessa glared at her husband’s back, huffing in embarrassment, ten years married with that man and he still found a way of getting to her in public and making her blush.

Not that she was going to complain, he sure did have a sexy ass and he was always making her feel loved and special.

Huffing in defeat, thinking perhaps she will get him later that evening, a smirk forming on her lips, as she thought of delicious ways of getting back at him.

She then began to concentrate and prepare the paperwork she needed for her client and making sure that the vehicle was ready and pristine.

As she looked at the car that her client had chosen, Vanessa could only smirk, it was one of Cade’s favorite vehicles that he had exclusively designed.

Vanessa hoped that the mutual liking in the design, might just bring the two together and perhaps rouse a spark…
