LOGINI was in the kitchen making coffee when I felt the vibration of my phone from my back pocket.My gran checking to see if I was still coming over for breakfast. I sat at the table and messaged her back. I would drink this cup and then head out. Jake still wasn’t back yet, and I had heard nothing.He was busy dealing with what happened, probably wasn’t in the right frame of mind and blaming himself. No one was to blame for what happened. It was unfortunate but expected to happen at some point.Running a hand down my face I stifled the yawn trying to escape. I was tried today, and my head hurt a little. I pushed myself to my feet and poured the remainder of my coffee down the sink.Slipping my arms into my jacket I grabbed the keys to Jake’s truck and opened the front door. Alanna’s car was parked in the driveway, but she was nowhere to be seen.Which means she was blocking me in. I chewed the inside of my cheek as I turned the key in the door and made sure it was locked. I can only assu
OptionsI was in bed drinking my tea the TV on in the background, but I wasn’t paying attention. I couldn’t concentrate, I wanted to know what was going on. I wanted to get dressed and head out there:But I knew it wouldn’t be the best idea. I didn’t need a fight on my hands and that’s exactly what would happen if I went.Sighing I grabbed my phone and called Alanna.Straight to voicemail.Huffing I sent a message to Carter in the hopes that he would reply. He was out there, probably found whoever the wolf was. If it wasn’t one of ours then who was it? An outsider? A rogue? Were there more than one?I couldn’t sit here and do nothing, but I also couldn’t leave the house when I was told to stay put. But it’s not like it stopped me before”.“No”. I groaned.I would stay here and wait until he was home.I finished my tea, turned out the light and put friends on the tv. I would catch up on the rookie another time. Rolling onto my side a yawn fell from my lips as I rubbed at my eyes.I sc
“Everyone in my family loves you. Feeling nervous about things is natural but honestly you really have nothing to be nervous about”.I was half expecting him to say he’d come with me,but he didn’t. I wonder if Alanna would be there.“Besides Alanna will be there”. He pulled the covers back and got into bed. “Do you still want to catch up on the rookie?”.That made me a little less nervous knowing she will be there. Don’t get me wrong I loved his mom but his mom and his gran in the same room with just me. Yeah, that made me nervous as hell.“Yeah”I nodded. “But do you think you could get me some tea first?”. I asked.“Sure babe. Do you want anything else?”.“No thanks”.We came straight upstairs as soon as we got home.We both wanted an early night and some time just us.We rarely got to have that anymore because Jake was always busy with the pack and I well I was always just hanging around with nothing to do.Of course, that would change soon when I started college. It was only a fe
In true Ellen fashion she huffed and puffed because I had come all the way down here.She was my gran, and I wanted to make sure she was okay.“George told you to stay home Leah”.I fought the urge to roll my eyes. If she caught me, l’d get an earful. But I wasn’t going to stay home when she was lying in hospital.“I wanted to make sure you were okay. I knew something was up when we came for dinner and the house was in darkness”.“Oh, shoot”. She made a face. “I forgot to text you andlet you know. It all happened so fast George just wanted to get me here and get me checked out”.“Gran it’s fine and we can have dinner anytime. Has the doctor been back?”.“They don’t think anything is broken but I’m waiting to be taken for an x-ray just to be sure. You should go home; I could be here for hours before I’m seen to”.“I don’t mind being here or waiting for hours”. I spoke.“Well, I do. It’s late and I’m sure you have better things to do than sit here all night”.“I called Aunt Claire; she
My dad and Jake were on the couch watching the game eating Chinese food. I was fixing my plate checking my phone often to see if my gran had reached out. It was almost nine-thirty, and I still hadn’t heard from her.“Babe come sit down”. Jake spoke.I grabbed my bottle of water from earlier and took my plate into the living room. I wasn’t interested in the game playing on the tv so instead I scrolled through my phone whilst eating my dinner.“Have you heard from your gran yet?”. My dad asked“Nothing”. I shook my head. “I’m going to eat and then go back over there”. They have to come home at some point, right?“I’m going to patrol with Carter and Rocco tonight. I could drop in when I leave?”. He asked“Okay”. I smiled.I would still go over and check myself. I wouldn’t sleep tonight if I didn’t,“I’m sure everything is fine”. Jake spoke. “They’ve probably just lost track of time or got held up doing something”.“Should I be worried?”. I chewed the inside of my cheek. “I haven’t heard
I soothed my hands down my jeans as I slipped my feet into my black boots. I went for comfort tonight.Jeans, boots and my orange blazer.“You look good babe”. Jake spoke as he slipped his arm around my waist.“I feel a little nervous”. I had no idea why seeing as we were already over the hard part. Tonight was just dinner.“It’s just dinner, right?”.I nodded.“Then you have nothing to be nervous about”. He kissed the top of my head as his arm fell from my waist.“I’ll meet you downstairs”.I let out a big breath. He was right it was just dinner and yet I felt a little sick at the thought of it. I grabbed my purse from the closet and gave myself another once over in the mirror.I decided no make-up was needed and I left my hair out. I switched the light off as I made my way downstairs. Jake and my dad were laughing at something both with a beer in their hand.I liked their relationship or at least where their relationship was going. I always feared they wouldn’t get on.“What’s so fu
I walked home.My feet were burning by the time I reached my house. I didn’t need to tell Jake about being expelled, he already knew. He was more pissed because I had decided to walk home.It wasn’t safe because of the rogue wolfs. He was furious, we argued and I hung up on him. Haven’t heard from
“Sorry to interrupt”. Charlotte smiled at me as she walked into the room. “Coffee is hot and in the kitchen. Also call Jake, he’s called me three times already”.Of course he had.“We’ll continue this later Leah. It was lovely to finally meet you”.Was it bad I didn’t even know her name?Regardless
“We need to go Leah now”.“It’s doesn’t mean he’s here to cause trouble”. I said as we rushed out of the diner. If he wanted to hurt me he would have done it already. I was alone with him yesterday.“Put your seatbelt on”. She ordered.Bringing the car to life she sped out of the car park her tires
I met Joe. Joe ran the gas station almost all the time. He was an elder, lost his wife to a rogue wolf and had a daughter. Joe was sweet and he welcomed me with open arms.“How’d you break your hand lass?”. He asked.“Funny story”. I grinned. I felt extremely relaxed around him. He was the first on
