The Alpha Who Saved Me

CHAPTER 83

Declan

I pass by Lila as I head to the front door, and I can sense her looking at me. If I know the nosey Luna as well as I think I do, she will be staring out the window to see what is going on. I smile down at the doctor as I make my way down the front steps while he grabs his bag from his trunk.

"Sands, I'm so glad that you could make it!" I say in a booming voice. Since my back is to the house, Lila can see me talking, so I quickly explain to him in a very low voice, about what Carter and I had discussed; how he is my mother's friend and so on. I shake his hand, "It's nice to meet you, mother couldn't stop talking about you this morning."

"Well, your mother is such a kind woman, I couldn't pass up on her offer to visit, and since I'm passing through the area, I figured, why not?"

The doctor is better than I thought at this acting thing, "Just one thing before we go inside, what is your first name?" I ask in another low voice.

"It's Jonah, Alpha, Jonah Sands." He answers.

I quickly mind link my mother his name, so she doesn't have to call him by his last name, and then I sweep my hand toward the front steps indicating that we should head in. We are only halfway up the stairs when Lila comes out and crosses her arms over her chest.

"Who are you?" She asks in a bitchy tone.

"LILA! This is a Mr. Sands, a friend of my mother's! You will treat him with respect!" I hiss at her.

"Well, as Luna of this pack, don't you think I should be informed whenever we are having a guest?" She states defensively.

"You are Luna in name only, Lila. Pack business is NONE of your business. Nobody has to inform you of anything." I turn towards the doctor, "Please, pay her no mind. She's a bit temperamental lately.”
