My Hot Alpha

I wasn't sure I was dressed for the occasion. I thought it was date night until we pulled up outside that fancy hotel he took me to last time. A sigh fell from my lips but I didn't say anything.

"I know what your thinking baby but I promise it'll be better than last time". As he got out I followed suit watching as he gave his keys to the valley. This still wasn't my scene, I couldn't do fancy, couldn't deal with high end snobs.

"If you say so". Slipping my hand in his we walked inside. Same as before we were greeted by the hostess and escorted to a table or so I thought.

She led us through the back of the hotel stopping when we reached double doors. "You're the last of your party to arrive. Have a great night Mr Taylor". Party?

My heart was hammering in my chest. I wasn't big on surprises and with everything that was going on I was skeptical at who lay behind those double doors. "Breathe". He opened the door and I let out the breath I was holding.

His family.

"What's going on?". I asked.

"Just dinner baby". He brought my hand up placing a kiss on my knuckles. "I promise".

I wasn't convinced. Why so fancy for dinner? Usually his mom would host family dinner at her house.

"My mom wanted to do something nice for you". He whispered.

That was sweet.

My eyes landed on Charlotte. She was smiling from ear to ear engrossed in a conversation with Jacob. Looking around the room I chewed the inside of my cheek.

I was feeling a little overwhelmed. I knew they were all here to support me. They were my family, they were all I had now.

"Babe?".

"I'm okay". I smiled.
