Alpha's Possession by Jessica Hall

Read Alphas Possession by Jessica Hall Chapter 73 – So instead, I make my way up the stairs to the VIP section to find Bree working behind the bar upstairs. She smiles and waves me over to her, and I quickly rush toward her and the little safety behind the bar area.

“Thanks for coming in,” she says before looking downstairs toward the lower bar. “That man down there came in twenty minutes before you did,” she tells me, nodding toward Jake and glancing down at him nervously.

“He knew your name.” I swallow and nod. “As Harlow,” she whispers. It was no secret anymore that Tal and Bree knew my real identity now, yet the fact he figured out where I worked and came here frightened me.

“Apparently, he was here last night asking about you, Bree tells me. Now that worries me. I don’t offer her an explanation.

Though it made me curious as to why he was here.

“His name is Jake. He is also the man responsible for killing my sister. She took my place in his pack,” told her. Saying that out loud made the sickly feeling in my stomach worse, remembering how angry he was when he found out he had the wrong Omega after killing her.

“Stay up here today; I will have Shane stay in case he gives you a hard time,” Bree tells me, giving my arm a squeeze before going downstairs. She was due on stage in twenty minutes, and I hated the idea of being here by myself but knew it couldn’t be helped.

Besides, Shane would step in if he tried anything. I set to work, trying to ignore Alpha Jake the best I could, yet he never left and remained most of the day.

When I thought he was getting up to leave, relief filled me but on temporarily. Instead, he came up to the top bar where I was. Shane, the security guard, watched him closely and never left my side. But his presence was becoming harder and harder to ignore.
