Chapter 195
"So is Jake coming for you?". Alanna asked.
We were still sat in the cafeteria drinking coffee. "I haven't messaged him yet. I mean I don't see why I couldn't drive myself to school".
"I think it's cute". She grinned. "He's looking after you".
"Yeah cute". I finished the rest of my coffee before pushing my cup to the side. "How do you really think the exam went?".
She shrugged. "It's done now so I guess we'll just have to wait and see. How are you feeling about the chemistry one?".
"I'm trying not to think about it". I rubbed a hand over my face. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on . Visit to read the complete chapters for free. "I tried to study the other night and it didn't exactly go so well. I couldn't remember anything". "That's normal". She laughed. "You doing anything tonight?".Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
"Other than not wanting to go home". I didn't want to face my gran. I still hadn't processed our last conversation. Selling the house, moving in with George, leaving me on my own.
"You've always got a place to stay Leah".
"Sooner than I thought". I shrugged.
"You'll be mated soon, it'll be better in the long run".
"I just don't know if I'm ready to move in with him. I want to be but what if it's to soon. What if we get under each other's skin and end up hating each other".
A laugh fell from her lips. "All that is normal trust me but it's never to soon when you're meant to be together". Rolling my eyes I dodged out of the way of her hand. "Don't roll your eyes at me Leah. You'll see what I mean when you're mated". "I'm sure I will". I took out my phone. "Guess I better text him to come get me".
"I could drop you off instead if you want?". She asked.
"Let's go then". I picked up my bags and the books I collected from the library.
"You really that worried about the chemistry exam?". She nodded towards the books.
"Absolutely shitting myself. I need to pass to be able to graduate".
"Have you asked Jake for help?".
"No".
"And why not?". She asked as we headed towards her car.
"He's busy". I shrugged.
"And you're full of shit". She smirked. "You don't want to ask him for help do you?".
"No". I chewed the inside of my cheek. "And it's nothing to do with being stubborn. I know he has a lot going on".
"Yeah because I'm sure he'll pass up spending hours alone with you". She rolled her eyes as she unlocked her car.
"Shut up". I grinned getting in.
"Does he know I'm bringing you home?". She started the engine pulling out of the school parking lot.
"I'll text him now". And I did. I let him know Alanna was dropping me at his and to see if he was home. He instantly texted back.
He was at the training ground.
"He's not home". I locked my phone screen leaving his message on read.
"Then come to my moms with me. Let him know that's where you'll be".
Unlocking my screen I clocked his other message telling me to come to the training ground.
"Can you drop me off at the training ground?". I sighed.
"Sure thing".
...
Most of the pack was here but what got my back up was seeing Jessica. What reason did she have for being here?
They were all out on the field. All working hard and taking orders. All focused and looked to be in fighting mood.
"Hey baby". He kissed the side of my head as I approached.
"Preparing for something?". I asked crossing my arms over my chest. Yes I was annoyed that she was here. If her abilities were taken from her then she shouldn't be allowed here. "Rocco found a scent on the main border this morning. It might be nothing but we're preparing just incase. They have to be ready for anything".
"And Jessica?". I couldn't help the bitterness in my tone.
"She's a strong she wolf and-...".
"But she's not allowed to shift". I cut him off. "That was her punishment so why is she here".
"Babe".
I took a deep breath. I wasn't going to pick an argument with him but I was going to make sure he knew I was annoyed.
"Give me your keys so I can drive myself home". I held my hand out.
"Jack". He yelled motioning for him to come over.
"I can drive myself home Jake".
"I never said you couldn't. Jack take over I'm done for the day".
"You got it Alpha".
"I asked for your keys not for you to take me home".
"I'm not arguing with you over this Leah. She's a strong wolf and until I know who the scent belongs to we need everyone on board".
"I'm sure you can manage without her". I slammed the passenger side door behind me knowing it would piss him off.
"Was that really necessary?". He growled starting the car and driving up onto the main road.
"Was what really necessary?". I smiled.
I could feel his glare but chose to ignore it.
"You're so fucking stubborn".
We didn't speak the rest of the ride home. It wasn't until he pulled up outside my house that I looked at him.
