306 SUPRISED GUESTS

LOBO ARIA'S POV

After dinner, we settled at the bar as we celebrated and drank merrily. Much to our surprise Hunter and Tala appeared half an hour later.

" Did we miss out on anything? " Tala asked as she walked over to embrace Ma.

" Not really " I spoke up.

" You well?" Hunter walked over and sat next to Lobo.

" As well as I can be " I nodded at him.

" When do you leave ?" Hunter made conversation as I handed him a bottle of beer that I had opened just for him

" Are you ready to chase me away ?" I teased him.

" Correct. I need you as far as away from Chugach, " Hunter teased.

" I never thought you would ever talk to me. I know what I did in the past has no excuse and seeing you here, I am grateful" I confessed as I raised my bottle to him.

He smirked and raised his bottle clinked it with me and said " You have gotten soft Lobo Aria"
