Chapter 5

Alex

I rolled my eyes when my dad offered this girl a ride home. He’s always such a people pleaser and way too nice to everyone. Dad always says that a good alpha knows how to be a leader without instilling fear in people. Something I have yet to master.

I peered through my dads car window trying to get a look at the doctor’s daughter and was struck by a pair piercing blue eyes staring back at me. All at once I felt all the breath leave my body. She was absolutely gorgeous with long brown hair and big blue eyes that could see right through you. Her voice carried through the car window breaking me from my haze.

“Sure that would be nice thank you” as she walked over to the door to the back seat and opened it. She struggled slightly to get in and looked up at me somewhat embarrassed.

“Short people problems”, she laughed shyly and shrugged her shoulders

The moment she got in I got hit with the most intoxicating smell. It smelled like cinnamon and sugar mixed with something floral that I couldn’t quite recognize. Ajax started pacing in my head practically salivating over this girl we didn’t even know, who wasn’t even a werewolf, but a witch! What was his deal?

“So Sierra, is it? Your dad tells me you’re in your senior year! That’s exciting”, my dad said breaking me from my own thoughts.

“Yea I guess” she said quietly.

“Oh not a fan of school are we? This one over here wasn’t either”, dad nudging me with his elbow. I rolled my eyes at him. He was trying to force us to talk and get along, but I honestly couldn’t keep Ajax still in my mind for more than five seconds to even formulate a sentence. Dad noticed and gave me a quizzical look. Just as I was about to open my mouth to make a fool of myself we pulled up in front of a house. It wasn’t small by any means, but much smaller than our pack house back home. The front had dozens of flowers and vines wrapped around a white Pickett fence. The house was white with blue shutters and had a large wrap around porch. It was idyllic, something you would picture out of a story book or a sappy rom-com.

She quickly opened the back door of the truck as if she had been nervous to get away from us, and made her way up the driveway to the house. An older gentleman sat on the porch and brought her in for a warm hug. It must be her dad, the coven’s doctor. My dad grabbed the two boxes of pastries from the back seat and climbed out of the truck.

“Hiya John! Good to see you again”, dad shouted

“Alpha Leo, welcome to my home. I see you’ve already met Sierra my daughter. Please come on in, do you need any help with your bags?” He said to us

“No we’ll be ok. Alex can you grab the bags from the trunk and bring them up to the house”

“What do I look like a valet?” I complained

Dad sighed “Could you at least try to behave while we’re here?”

I grabbed the bags from the trunk and made my way up to the house.

“Sierra dear, why don’t you show Alex where they will be staying while Alpha Leo and I go find your mom. I hope you guys like lasagna because that’s what we’re having for dinner! My wife makes a mean lasagna” he chuckled while rubbing his belly.

“Lasagna sounds delicious doesn’t it Alex?”

“Uh yea lasagna is fine thank you”, I said

Dad and Dr. John made their way into the house leaving Sierra and I alone on the porch. She had her hands clasped tightly in front of her and she was looking down at her feet. She was all fidgety I could tell she was uncomfortable.

Before I could say anything she practically whispered for me to follow her. The inside of the house was large, with high ceilings and an open concept living and dining area. I could see a middle aged woman working away in the kitchen. The smell of lasagna hitting my nose.

“Wow that does smell good” I said as my stomach rumbled.

“Yea moms one of the best cooks in town she’s got her lasagna recipe down to a science. Don’t ever tell her you don’t like her cooking though she’ll never let it go”, she chuckled.

She made a left down a hallway before we hit the main kitchen area and stopped in front of a door.

“Our guest suite is in here. There are two beds in this one and the room across the hall has a king so feel free to use whichever rooms you like. Both have an en suite bathroom and you should find everything you need. If there’s anything else feel free to let me know” she said while looking down at her feet again.

Hm maybe she was the shy hard to get girl.

“And where do you sleep I said” trying to gauge her reaction with a little flirting. She quickly picked up her head her eyes meeting mine and boring into my soul. “I’m on the other side of the house. This side is for our guests only. Well I’m going to go if you need anything let me know” she said far too quickly, trying to escape.

“Well I guess I’ll just have to come find you if I think of something you can do for me” I said rather too smugly as she practically ran down the hallway.

Damn she had a pretty nice ass too even if it was covered in powdered sugar from the bakery.

I made my way into one of the bedrooms and put down the bags. Now that she was away from me I was able to think and see clearly. What the hell was wrong with me? By all means this girl was drop dead gorgeous but I couldn’t get involved with a witch and the daughter of the covens doctor to say the least! But just thinking of her tight little ass walking away from me my dick got hard in my pants and I had to adjust myself. I need to keep it together this weekend. There’d be no point in breaking the poor girl’s heart. You could tell she was shy and inexperienced. She could never handle someone like me, someone who exuded Alpha dominance over anything and everything.
