The Alpha Chose Me

"Well here we are". I laughed. "Eighteen years later he wants to meet me and you still kept me in the dark about it all". "Leah I-..".

"All you do is lie". I couldn't believe what I was saying but I was done. Done with the lies, done with the excuses.

"I didn't lie Leah".

"But you didn't tell me the truth either. I'm not a little girl anymore, you should have told me from the start. You should have told me everything about him". "Now wait a damn minute Leah".

"Everyone around me lies. You, Jake, basically everyone I love. You kept a lot from me and if you'd have just told me the truth this wouldn't be happening".

"I done my very best at raising you. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on NovelDrama.Org. Visit NovelDrama.Org to read the complete chapters for free. Yes I may have kept a few things from you but I would have always told you in the end". "You mean you'd have told me after I found out by myself. You kept that I was a werewolf from me all these years".

"I don't know what's gotten into you but your attitude stinks and I find you being very disrespectful".

"Oh yeah because you didn't bring me up to disrespect my elders. There is nothing wrong with my attitude gran. I'm just sick of everyone's bullshit". I got to my feet.

"Indeed I did not now sit back down". Her voice stern my eyes locked with her. I could see the anger but also the hurt.

I had never spoken to my gran this way and let me tell you I didn't like the way it made me feel. This isn't how I expected today to go.

We were always so close and yet I have never felt further apart. I sat back down a sigh falling from my lips. I wouldn't apologise for how I felt.

We always had such a good relationship. We rarely had disagreements and if we did we always spoke about them putting our problems on the table. I miss the bond we used to share.

"This isn't exactly how I thought today was going to go". She glanced at her watch. "I've been a shit gran recently".

I laughed. "I haven't exactly been the best granddaughter". I rarely saw her now and it was nothing to do with us being busy. We just didn't really make the effort anymore.

"No sweetheart this is all on me. If I hadn't of been so desperate to see you happy and with Jake you'd still be living under my roof. If I had been straight with you from the beginning then I wouldn't have made this mess. I truly am sorry Leah".

"I shouldn't have spoken to you the way I did but please understand how frustrating it is not to be told the truth or for people to think I can't handle it".

"How about we put today behind us and start a fresh?".

"No more keeping things from me?". I asked.

"I've learned my lesson the hard way Leah. From now on no more secrets I promise".

"I really do miss you gran".

"I miss you too sweetheart but just remember I'm only across the street".

"I think I might come home for a few days. Clear my head and give myself the chance to think about everything".

....

He found me in our room packing a bag.

"Babe what's going on?".

"I'm going to go home for a few days". I put my bag aside taking a seat on our bed.

"You are home".

"I'm going to stay with my gran for a few days". I wasn't sure how he was going to take it. Probably why my stomach was in knots. Gearing up for the argument that was due to happen. "Did something happen?".

Sighing I chewed the inside of my cheek. "Let's just say it's didn't go as I expected. How have I let this happen".

He took the seat next to me taking my hand in his. "So something did happen. If you want to go spend a few days with her then that's okay".

I wasn't expecting him to say that.

"Don't look so shocked baby, I'm not keeping you prisoner". He laughed.

"I feel like I don't have a relationship with her anymore. Yes we talk and still see each other but not as much as we used to. I have this horrible feeling that I can't shake". "What happened today?" He asked.

"I was brutally honest. I'm sick of the lies and everyone keeping secrets. I can handle the truth, I don't need to be protected from it".

"That a dig at me as well?".

"Yes and I know you mean well but I'd rather you just tell me instead of me finding out later and being pissed at you".

"Noted". He got to his feet placing a kiss on my forehead. "Are you going over there tonight?".

"That's the plan". I grabbed my bag so I could finish packing.

"You do what you need to do baby. I'll be here if you need me".

"Are you feeling okay?". I was gearing myself up for an argument that clearly wasn't happening. I wasn't used to him playing nice.

A laugh fell from his lips. "I'm not all bad baby. I lose my temper sometimes but it's only because I want to keep you safe. The thought of anything happening to you scares me to death". "You'd be surprised how well I can take care of myself". I winked.

"I'm well aware baby and I'm trying to adjust to not always losing my head. I don't do it to be a prick".

"Really because I think-....". A squeal fell from my lips as he grabbed me around the waist pulling me onto the bed.

I couldn't hide my grin.

"You're the most important person to me princess. I'd lose my mind if I lost you but I'm trying to be better". He brushed his nose against mine.

"Baby steps". I knew he was trying and I appreciated it. I was coming to terms with his protectiveness and his need to keep me safe.

My heart hurt, the air had been sucked from my lungs, I couldn't breathe.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

My gran was gone. Leaving nothing but a note stating she was sorry.
