My Bestfriend Slipped Inside Me (An Alpha’s Secret) by Demiah13

Avery’s pov

Tears pricked my eyes. Was it because of what would have happened if Xade hadn’t intervened or was it because Xade had come all this way for Mel? Why did the thought hurt? A few days ago I wouldn’t have minded.

Okay, maybe I would. I would always secretly envy the girls he had been with and based it on them taking his attention away from me. Had it been completely different all along? Was I jealous because I had secretly wanted Xade as more than a friend from the beginning?

I skipped the stairs two at a time, which is legendary to do with heels like mine, but I manage to do it without falling flat on my face or a*s. I don’t know where I was going, or why I was running away actually but I just needed a moment alone.

Having him here after two days without seeing him, or hearing his voice, was a bit overwhelming. The least he could have done was answer my text. Try to fix our friendship. But he had showed no interest.

Did he not know how miserable I had been these last two days without seeing him? Hell, I had missed that apple scent he brought with him. I had missed him.

The tears that stung my eyes flowed freely down my cheeks. I can taste the salty tang. My chest hurt too.

Of course he’d show up for Mel. After two days of avoiding me, he comes here like her knight in shining armor to save the day. Then why isn’t he downstairs with her? Consoling her? Why is he trying to keep up with me as I brush past drunk idiots?

I can hear his calls behind me for me to stop, but I refuse to turn around and look back. I had a mission. A mission to get alone and not face him yet. I was kind of scared of how I’d react. The last time we were face to face didn’t end well and I didn’t want to say anything dumb that will further f*ck our friendship up.
