Old ways in a new world II (Wolvenrogue and Nightsorceress)

Josh had just finished a long evenings work as a third shift high steel worker on a sky scraper construction crew. He was ready for a cup of coffee and a hearty breakfast, before heading home. he went into the cafe as was his usual custom, this time though something besides the smell of fresh coffee and frying bacon caught his senses. Something much more primal. He hadn't smelled a female wolf since he came to New York City, but there was no mistaking it. He scanned the restaurant until his eyes fell on her and his nose confirmed that she was the source of the intoxicating scent. He was troubled though when he looked on her. There was sadness in her eyes. An emptiness that he knew well. Could she be as lonely as he was? Sure the pay was good, and the there were plenty of human females around, but this was different and he knew it.
 
Eliana was feeling left out, her parents had each other and her brothers each had their mates and she was left out. She decided she needed to get away made find her own place in this world so she packed up and moved to New York City. It was no long before she found her place their. She had always enjoyed fashion so it was not hard for her to fall into the fashion blogging scene and she was good at it. Before she knew it she was making a ton of money writing for papers and magiznes, and soon she had major names sending her clothes. But with her whirlwind life she was lonely all of her new friends never knew what she truly was and part of her was getting home sick. But she pressed on determine to find happiness. She went to her favorite cafe and began to write her latest blog, typing away on her laptop if she hadn't had a sip of her coffee she may not have noticed there was someone staring at her.
 
Josh couldn't let this opportunity pass. She was a wolf, there was no doubt of that, and if she was as lonely as he looked they had plenty in common. When their eyes met, it was like magic to Josh. He smiled. Broadly. He just couldn't help it. Since he hadn't been waited on yet, he followed her gaze to her table, and risking being rejected, he introduced himself. "My name is Josh. May I join you for breakfast? Unless I'm terribly mistaken we have something in common."
 
As he drew closer there was no doubt in her mind he was a wolf. She set her cup down as he approached her she was taken back a mount. "Um well yes sure."
 
"Thank You, you are very beautiful. How long have you been away from your clan? It's been ten years for me. My father kicked me out when I was 15. We couldn't get along, and when your father is the Alpha male, that just won't fly."
 
Eliana blushed when he called her beautiful, she tried her best however to hid it. She saved what she was working on and closed her laptop. "I have been away almost a year now, my brothers found their mates so I was kind of the fifth wheel, so I left." She sighed a bit "I am eliana by the way."
 
"That's a very pretty name and it suits you well. You must have been hiding. Either that or the young wolves in your clan have no taste. Can I buy you breakfast? I just got off work and I always eat a hardy breakfast. That's why I come here. The food is excellent."
 
Eliana smiled and shook her head. "We'll I didn't pay the young men in my clan much mind" she thought about the breakfast offer. "Um sure, the breakfast here is very good."
 
When he saw the waitress enter the café from the kitchen, he motioned her over to their table and requested menus. "Hey Josh! the usual?" "Yes Valeri, and whatever the lady would like. All on my check please."
 
Eliana watched as he ordered clearly this was his favorite place to eat. Eliana ordered a toasted bagel and more coffee. Once the waitress was gone she turned back to josh "so have you encountered others of our kind while you lived here.?"
 
"No. I was beginning to think I was the only one in New York City. I'm really glad that your here. I work high steel construction. What brings you to the big city. There were plenty of other places you could have run away to."
 
Eliana shrugged he shoulders "I don't know why I choose New York it was kind of the first place that popped into my head when I decided to leave home"
 
"Do you ever go out of the city, change form and just run wild? I have wanted to for quite some time, but never seem to find the time. My uncle has a cabin upstate I have been meaning to go to, just to get away. Maybe you would like to come along? Get out in the woods and run free for a bit, but not have to sleep on the ground. What do you think?" Just then Valerie brought their breakfast. His was huge; steak and 4 eggs, hash browns, toast and a biscuit.
 
Eliana was a little taken back by his offer although she did long to go "I would love to I have wanted to take a run for a while but I afraid if I don't get far enough from the city I would be hunted, however I am going to be honest I barely know you so perhaps it would not be the best idea for me to go to a cabin with you I hope you understand"
 
"I do understand. Its just hard to find a safe lace nearby and I thought that you would enjoy it. You can have your own room if you like. The cabin does have two."
 
Eliana bit her lip her skin was crawling to get out of the city and just enjoy nature. "Um alright, just no funny business, I am not looking for a mate or anything just a chance to get out of this city."
 
"That's fine, can we at least be friends?" he smiled at her and asked, "when would you like to go? I'm free next weekend. "
 
Eliana nodded "yes we can be friends." She smiled as well "yes I can go next weekend, perhaps in the meantime we can get to know each other, made even enjoy dinner."
 
"That would be great. I leave for work about 10:30pm, but I could pick you up around six o'clock. Do you like motorcycles or should I bring the car?"
 
Eliana smiled "ok 6 o'clock it is then, I have never been on a motor cycle before so I can not say if I like them or not." She then dogged through her purse and got a business card and wrote her address on the back and gave it to him
 
" Alright, I'll bring the bike. Best not to wear a skirt. " I'll pick you up. When they had finished eating, He paid the check, and reached down to squeeze her hand before heading home for bed. He dreamt of her that night.
 
Eliana thanked him for breakfast and then packed up her laptop and headed home. She was shocked how excited she was for dinner with him, it was wonderful for her to be able openly talk with him.
 
Josh headed home, but he had difficulty sleeping. The girl was bewitching, and he hadn't been around his own kind in so long that he could taste the desire, besides she was both charming and gorgeous. Finally about 4 pm he just god up. After polishing the bike, he wet in, showered, shaved, and dressed. He wore a crisp air of Khakis, and a charcoal cotton sweater with a scoop neck. It was soft and comfortable, but classy looking. He moussed and spiked his short jet black hair and picked out a nice pair of dark wrap around glasses. The finishing touch was a dash of cologne.
 
Eliana had a hard time focusing on her blog during the day but she finally did get done then she showered and dressed. She wore a pair of black skinny jeans with knee high boots. Sliver blouse with enamel jewlery. She braided her long hair figuring it would look nicer after being on a bike. She was so excited to go out with josh since she never really heard of their kind going out to dinner to get to know one another most in her clan knew each other from birth so there was no need to date.
