My first thought was to refuse but he shot me a look that made me go quiet instantly.
“I know you’re going to refuse,” he began, “But the only other option is leaving you here to chance and I can’t do that to you. I won’t leave you to the mercy of that bastard.”
“So what are you going to do?” I asked “Are you going to hide me away and lie to your Alpha about me? He will kill you when he finds out.”
“I don’t lie to Logan ever.” He said, “He’s a good guy and I know he won’t turn you down.”
“He might be a good guy but do you really think he’s going to risk a war with another pack because of a girl who isn’t even your mate?”
“I understand your

Jake drove me to his place; it took almost five minutes for me to agree to stay at his place. I feel like he has done too much for me but he feels responsible. I wanted to stay in the pack house with the other guests but he was very adamant about me not staying there.I thought I was winning but then he played the ‘Greg left you in my care’ card and that’s what made me succumb and finally agree to stay with him.It was a very simple looking house on the outskirts of town. It was almost completely isolated; in fact the closest house to it was about five minutes away by drive and he told me that it’s Logan’s place. Apparently they both like their privacy way too much.He helped me carry my bag in and led me to the room I would be staying in. it was a very simple room with cream walls and a queen sized four poster bed in the middle of the room. There was a dresser with a mirror ov

Apparently the pack house was that massive castle like building we visited yesterday. Technically it’s a part of it and not the entire thing; the other part that houses people was another building about thirty minutes away.Jake spent a few minutes with Logan trying to convince him to let me work here. There were a few raised voices (I was listening in from outside) and I honestly thought that Jake would come out and tell me Logan refused but then finally Logan relented and I was allowed to help out with the children at the daycare.“I tried to make him give you something else; I know children can be a menace.” Jake said but I stopped him. “It’s okay honestly,” I said, “I’ve always loved children so this should be easy for me.” I sighed, “Besides I’m grateful that I’m even allowed to do somethi

I’m really enjoying my job and it helps that I don’t really have to relate with people or make any friends while I’m at it. Diana is different though; she doesn’t ask any questions or try to pry into my personal life, we are work buddies and that is all there is to it.Amelia has also become my favorite tiny human. She clings to me from the moment I walk in and doesn’t let go until her mother comes to pick her up. Thankfully her mother seems just as easy going as she is; she hasn’t given me any dirty or snide looks.“This is the first time I’m actually getting your scent,” Diana said as I walked in and when she saw the expression on my face she continued, “I’m sorry I’ve been told I have no filter sometimes. I didn’t mean it in a bad way; it’s just that I’ve never actually noticed your scent before.”

Jake refused to speak about what happened that night. I tried talking to him about it the next day but he completely shut me out and changed the subject. I even tried again a few days after that and he actually yelled at me to never bring it up again.It has been weighing on my mind since then and I don’t know who to talk to about it. Diana wouldn’t understand and Logan and I- although he doesn’t out rightly hate me- I still don’t know how I feel about telling him something like that.Today I don’t have work, in fact, they have a bi-annual pack gathering and that’s what we’re going for. I made a bunch of brownies and tea cakes to take because Diana asked me to and was in the middle of setting up when I felt a presence behind me. I turned and jumped slightly when I noticed Logan.“I’m sorry if I scared you,” he said and I nodded and waved him off, &

“What is wrong with you?” I finally found my voice when we got to the car, “You have been acting like a deranged psychopath for days.” “Shut up Charlie.”“Don’t tell me to shut up,” I said, “You’re acting weird and I don’t like it.” “Shut up or I swear to the goddess I will throw this car off a fucking cliff.” He yelled and I went quiet and stared at him in shock, “You don’t get to play the victim when you’re out there acting flirting with everything that moves and making me look bad.”“Okay so this is an ego thing?” I asked, “You’re not upset because I’m talking to people, you’re upset because it’s go

I couldn’t concentrate throughout the day; I was running on fumes because I couldn’t sleep all night. I was scared Jake would come into the room and attack me in the middle of the night and my mind was a jungle. It also didn’t help my nerves when he pinned me to the car as soon as he came down this morning and gave me a very vivid reminder of what would happen if I did anything to upset him today.“You know I still don’t understand why you’re wearing a turtleneck in this heat,” Diana said from across the room and I subconsciously tugged at my sleeve and neckline before turning to her, “It is like 90 degrees in here and you’re over there comfortably wearing a long sleeved turtleneck top like it’s a winter wonderland.” “I don’t feel that hot,” I lied.“Now that’s a b

“It was nice meeting you Spencer,” I said quickly and he must have noticed the growing tension and fear on my face because he nodded and hurried away and I braced myself before coming face to face with a fuming Jake.I opened my mouth to speak but he didn’t give me the chance and neither did he say anything to me. He just grabbed my arm and pulled me into an empty room. I opened my mouth to explain but he let out a loud growl that shut me up.“One hour,” he began, “I was gone one fucking hour and you’re already making moves on some pathetic little coffee boy.” “I wasn’t making moves on him, I just bumped into him and his things fell so I helped him pick it up,” I explained, “I swear that I wasn’t doing anything wrong.”“What were you doing out of the daycare?&rd

“Relax Diana,” Jake began, “You have no idea what you’re talking about.” “Bullshit,” she spat, “I’m not blind so why don’t you stop trying to change the subject and start explaining.”“Diana please,” I began but she cut me off with a hard look. “No,” she said, “You’re not going to say a word right now,” she then turned to Jake, “No one is leaving here until I get some answers.”“It’s not what you think.” Jake tried to explain but Samantha cut him off. “Maybe, maybe not,” she said with a shrug, “But Logan is on his way and he’ll be the judge of that.&r
