My Hot Alpha

Chapter 409

Chpater 409

I wasn't arguing with him today. If he wanted to stay in a funk about what happened, then he would come out it the way he went into it because I wasn't talking about it anymore. I was over it. I woke around 9 and the bed was empty and cold next to me. Of course, he didn't come home. Probably still patrolling this very minute.

I was in the kitchen drinking coffee. Lana had already left this morning leaving me a note to make me aware. I had already planned my day for today. I wasn't sitting about the house doing nothing. It's all I ever did, and I was sick of it.

I had already showered and planned to visit the library in town. I also planned to stop by the college again to see if they could speed up the process on their decision.

I was sick of waiting to hear back from them too. I needed something to fill my time, and college was the perfect place. It also gave me a little bit of my life back. Some normality and maybe even a little bit of my social life back.

I never went out anymore, not like I used to, and I missed it. I missed the nightlife, the dancing, the music. Sometimes I felt like a housewife, and I was nowhere near ready for that.

Jake liked to keep me in a bubble but that wasn't me. He would be happy to have me at home all day every day, but I couldn't do it. I wasn't built to do nothing.

I finished off my coffee placing my empty mug in the sink. Slipping my arms into my jacket I grabbed the keys to the truck and my purse before leaving out the front door. I stopped on the porch.

Jake and Pete seemed deep in conversation at the bottom of the driveway.

Like they weren't even there I made my way to the truck unlocked it and got in. I had yet to replace my car so Jake's truck would have to do.

He jumped in the passenger side leaving the door ajar so I couldn't just drive off. Not that I would do that anyway.

"Leah?".

"Good morning to you too. I see you didn't come home last night". I put the keys in the ignition and turned on the engine.

"I had to put stuff into place. Where are you going?". He frowned.

"Into town. I want to visit the library and then drop by the college. I might even stop and have some breakfast on the way. Are you going to bed?". I asked. "Yeah". He scratched the back of his head. "What's going on?".

"Nothing". I shrugged. "I just didn't want to sit in the house all day. I'm sick of staring at the same four walls".

"Do you have your phone with you?" He asked.

"I do". I nodded.

He knew better than to try and stop me. It wouldn't work because he knew I wouldn't listen. It would just cause an argument that could be avoided.

"Do you want to go out for dinner tonight?". I asked. "I still want to run a few ideas by you if that's okay?".

"Are you sure you're, okay?".

"I'm fine. Do you need me to bring you anything back?".

He shook his head. "Just text me when you get there so I know you're okay. I'll book somewhere for dinner". He reached over placing a kiss on my lips. "We'll talk when your back". Talk about what?

"Okay".

I stopped at the Starbucks drive-thru for coffee before setting off towards the college. I should have heard something back by now and the fact that I haven't worried me. My grades are good enough to get in which makes me think Mr. Gallagher really has it in for me.

But why?

I turned down Yale because it was the right thing to do. I wouldn't be able to cope being that far from Jake and not just that my life was here. My friends and family were here.

I made the decision to go to Yale out of spite. I did it impulsively to hurt Jake. I applied when I was angry and if I'm honest I never thought I'd have gotten accepted.

I was good enough for community college and I wasn't taking no for an answer. I pulled into the parking lot and parked up. The semester didn't start for another month, so I had plenty of time to fight my case if the decision was no.

I think I sat outside for at least an hour. I couldn't bring myself to go inside. Maybe deep down I feared being rejected. If I didn't get in, I literally had nothing left.

I needed this.

The knock on my window caused me to jump. A classic move from Mr. Gallagher. I rolled my window down slightly.

"The semester hasn't started yet Miss Wilson. Why are you parked in my car park?". He asked.

"Because I need-...". I paused.

"They wouldn't have hurt him". I fixed two cups adding half a sugar into mine. "They knew you'd have done anything to make sure he stayed safe". "Doesn't matter". She whispered. "I did the worst thing and now he won't talk to me".

"Jake doesn't know that you were involved". I spoke.

"He will". She sniffled. "Pete won't be able to keep that from him. He's already thinking the worst".

"Everything will be fine. Jake with stew for a few days but he'll come around". I passed her a mug of tea and headed into the living room.

"I really am sorry Leah. I should have done something instead of doing nothing. I should have fought or told someone".

"I would have done the same if I was in your position, but it's done with now so let's move on. Is Pete with Jake now?". I asked.

She nodded. "Jake was going on about putting more people on patrol. I wouldn't be surprised if they're out there all night".

"Then you stay here with me. We can order food watch movies maybe even have some wine". I smiled.

"I'd like that". I smiled. "Feels like forever since we hung out together".

"Life gets busy". I shrugged. "Now do you fancy Chinese or pizza?".

"Chinese". She grinned. "I've been craving egg rolls".

"Better watch you're not pregnant". I laughed. "I'll order food you pick something to watch".

"I'm really glad I've got you in my life Leah. I don't deserve a friend like you".

"We'll always be friends and I'll always be here. Pete will come around and everything will be fine".

"I don't know". She shrugged. "He was really angry more so because I let them take you".

I rolled my eyes. "You didn't have a choice and they're werewolves. You made the right decision".

"How are you so cool about what happened?". She asked.

I shrugged. "I'm safe they didn't hurt me and now I'm back home. What's the point in being pissed off about it?".

"Weren't you scared?".

"At first yeah". I nodded. "But there was no need for me to be scared when I found out it was my dad. They might have gone about this the wrong way, but I know they would never hurt me". "Are you going to go back there?". She asked.

"I want to know my family, Lana. I've only ever had my gran and it's not as if she's part of my life anymore".

"I still find it strange how she distanced herself. She was so protective of you when we were younger. Do you know I can't remember the last time I saw her".

"Yeah". I nodded. "We're going to meet for coffee once a week and take it from there".

"Think you'll ever get back to the way things were?".

Deep down I knew it would never be the same, but I had to at least try, right? She was still my gran, and she played a big part in my life. But would I be able to get past all the secrets and lies? I mean what else is she keeping from me?

"I hope so". I smiled. "Now pick something to watch I'll order the food".

I brought the blankets downstairs and threw the cushions from the couch on the floor. We were currently watching friends sharing a bottle of wine that was in the fridge.

"Do you think Jake will be home?". She asked.

I shrugged. "At least I'll know where he is if he doesn't".

"True". She nodded. "Have you received your acceptance letter for college yet?".

I shook my head. "Still waiting".

"I applied too". She grinned. "I thought we could go through it together".

"You did? What are you going to study?". I asked.

"Business". She smiled. "I want to open my own little boutique in town".

"Yeah?". I grinned. "I love it".

"Let's hope I get in".

"Let's hope we both get in". I laughed.

"It'll be just like when we were back in Florida. Living our best life's. I'll be forever grateful that I'm here with you Leah. Let's face it I don't have anyone else. My mom doesn't give a shit about me and if it wasn't for you and your gran, I don't know what would have happened".

"Everything happens for a reason. We were always going to end up here. As silly as it sounds, we're both exactly where we need to be".

"You're right but something tells me Pete isn't going to be so forgiving after what I did".

"He'll come around besides he can't stay mad at you forever".

...

I was tidying up downstairs when he arrived home. Lana was already tucked up in bed in the spare room. She was an emotional rollercoaster tonight. We talked for hours, we laughed, we cried.

Folding away the blankets I could feel him staring. I had no idea what mood he was in or if him being out there had helped.

Usually, a run does the trick.

"Looks like you've had a busy night?". He held up the wine bottle before disposing of it into the trash.

"Not really". I shrugged. "Lana came over, we had a catch up".

"She still here?". He asked.

I nodded. "She's in the spare room".

"I see". He spoke.

"I didn't expect you home". I carried the wine glasses to the sink. I would wash them in the morning along with the dinner dishes. "I'm going to bed".

"Wait, wait a minute". He grabbed hold of my arm and pulled me to him. "I'm sorry if I can't just be okay with what happened but you have to understand I have to keep you safe".

"And I am safe". I tilted my head so I could look up at him. "And yes, it could have been worse, but it wasn't. I'll always be okay; I'll always be safe, and you know I can handle my own".

"It's not about handling your own Leah but I'm not going to keep going on about it because you obviously don't have an issue with what happened. I'm heading back out I only came back to check on you". He kissed the top of my head and then he was gone. I locked the door as soon as he left.

I didn't know what he wanted me to say or how I was to act. The main thing was that I was okay and safe, and I was. I don't know why he felt the need to keep going on about it.

Or maybe I should be more worried because of how easily they took me. But I wasn't because maybe I just didn't care.

A sigh fell from my lips as I turned the lights off and headed upstairs.

I wanted to soak in the tub order Chinese food and not get up from the couch. Today had been all over the place. Jake had been quiet since we got on the road, I wasn't sure how he was taking all of this.

I couldn't blame him if he was angry. If someone took him from me, I'd be furious.

"Do you think we could order Chinese food when we get home?". I asked.

"Sure babe". He nodded.

"Are you okay?".

"Just thinking Leah".

"About?". I pressed.

"They took you so easily, right from under my nose".

His voice was barely a whisper, but I heard every word. He had to know the truth; I wouldn't let him think he couldn't protect me. Our land, our territory was safe. They managed to take me because they planned it all out. They went for the weakest amongst us all.

Lana.

The non werewolf.

"There must be changes made. More patrols, more bodies around our territory. I can't let what happened today happen again. They managed to get into our territory, and no one even knew about it".

I noticed how tight he was holding the steering wheel. The shifting in his breathing. Yeah, the more he talked about it the angrier he was becoming.
