My Hot Alpha의 모든 챕터: 챕터 421 - 챕터 430

“I’m sorry”. I whispered. “I shouldn’t have said that”.“Don’t apologise sweetheart”. My gran spoke. “It’s a lot to take in and digest and it’ll take time to process but take all the time you need because I want us all to be a family again, Leah. I regret a lot of things in life, but the one thing I regret the most is how I acted and how I treated you”.“Can I ask why you just up and left?”.“I wasn’t in the right frame of mind. I thought you’d be better off without me. I knew this was all going to come to light one day and I wasn’t sure I was going to be able to handle it”.“Handle telling me the truth?”. I frowned.She nodded. “I wasn’t sure how you were going to react. I admit I was selfish, and I should have been honest from the start with everyone, but I didn’t want to hurt anyone”.“So, you pushed me away to stop me from finding out the truth?”.“I know what it sounds like Leah, but I didn’t mean for any of this to happen the way it did”.“I know”. I sighed.I couldn’t give her

I went to bed but didn’t nap. I lay staring at the ceiling with the tv on for background nose. The pain in my head had dulled, the bottle of water Jake forced me to take helped with that.Grabbing my phone from the nightstand, I read the text message my grandma had sent an hour ago. She was inviting me over for coffee at six, but dinner was at eight.I frowned. I would go for coffee before we had dinner. Maybe she wanted to spend time together just us. I still had to tell her I was done with this whole situation. We were moving on, moving past it and hopefully we could become a family again.I quickly replied, stretched out my arms and got myself out of bed. Heading into the bathroom I washed my face before grabbing one of Jakes jumpers and pulling it over my head.I was starving and I was kicking myself for turning down that burger. I made my way downstairs. Jake was sat on the sofa his head buried in his phone football playing on the tv.“Hey”. I spoke.“Hey”. He put his phone away

We stopped by the store on the way home for groceries. Our pantry needed a refill, and we were running low on basically everything. We rarely grocery shopped together. Usually, it would just get delivered to the house.“Why don’t we do this more often?” He asked.“What get groceries?”. He frowned.I nodded, picking up some apples. “I don’t mind that they get delivered, but at least this way we get to see what’s here.”“You mean you get to buy random stuff that we don’t need”. He smirked.“That too”. I grinned. “But I do love a sale. Buy one get one free”.I dumped the bags of potatoes into the cart.“Do we really need two bags?”.We didn’t, we probably wouldn’t get through one before they turned bad, but I was making a point.“I think we should start cooking more. All we do is eat takeout, and I’m getting kind of sick of it”.“You want to cook?”“I want to eat healthier foods and try for a more balanced diet. We can’t survive on takeout forever.”“I mean we could but-…”. He scratched

“Nervous about meeting your family?”. He frowned.I nodded. I had so many thoughts and feelings about the whole thing. They were my family but that didn’t mean everything was going to go smoothly. I didn’t know these people and they didn’t know me.“I guess I’m just a little overwhelmed and I’m afraid it’s going to consume me and put me off”.“I promise you have nothing to worry about. They love you already and can’t wait to meet you”.I had to take his word for it because I had nothing else to go on. I had to rip the band-aid off and move forward.Meeting them wasn’t going to disrupt my life or cause me any pain. Who knows it may be exactly what I need.Having more family and being surrounded by people who love me was never a bad thing.“I do want you to visit Leah, and I hope it’s sooner rather than later but I’m not going to push because I want it to be your decision. I don’t want you to feel like you have to do it, and I would never push you to do something you don’t want to do”“

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
