The Alpha Chose Me
Chapter 131

But I guess I could learn to let him look after me. I could learn to live his lifestyle. I couldn't deny how I felt about him even if I wanted to punch him at times. I was falling and I was falling hard.

“I'l answer I promise”.

“We'll talk soon’...

The line went dead and yet all I wanted was to hear his voice again. Putting my phone away I grabbed my glasses from my bedside table and put them on. My hair was already pulled up into a messy bun.

I could hear the soft music as I reached the bottom of the stairs. My gran was sat at the kitchen island with a coffee.

“I haven't seen Lana in days. The house is very quiet without her". Looking at me from the corner of her eye I could see the hint of a smile.

“she'll be home tonight”. I laughed. My gran already knew where she was and what she had been up to.

“We should do dinner one night. I'l book a table, just the three of us”.

No George?

“sounds good gran but nothing to fancy”. We all knew I wasn't good with fancy restaurants.

“When are you heading out?”. She asked.

“I don't know if I can be bothered”. Truth was I didn’t want to face Charlotte after last night. I was still very much embarrassed.

“Nonsense Leah. Don't keep Charlotte waiting”.

If only she knew...

“Fine”. I sighed. “Are you going out today?".

“I've got some food shopping to do, I may stop by the library for some new books. Do you need anything while I'm out?”. “Why won't you use the kindle I bought you for Christmas last year?”.

“I do use it but nothing beats reading an actual book. Now do you need anything, some more toiletries?”.

“Yes please”. I smiled. “I'm going to head out just now. I'll be back for dinner”.

Alanna was standing by the door when I reached the house. “Hey girl”. She grinned letting me past. As she closed the door behind us I heard the small chatter.

“Who else is here?” I whispered,

“My mom and my grams. She's going to love you”. She winked. “Oh and Jake's her favourite. She'll say otherwise but-...” “Alanna Taylor I may be old but I can hear you loud and clear”. She didn't sound old but I knew her voice held authority. Alanna smirked before we walked into the lounge.

“And Jake is not my favourite”...

My eyes immediately fell onto an older lady, maybe ages with my gran or slightly younger. She was beautiful and I could tell straight away this was Charlottes mom.

Elegant, radiant, wealth.

I already knew Jake's parents were wealthy but this woman was something else. From the Chanel bag that sat by her feet to the Rolex watch on her wrist.

She presented well.

“0 this is the young woman that's stole my grandsons heart?”. As she looked me up and down I couldn't help but feel a little anxious. Probably another person that'll hate me for no reason. “she's beautiful”. As she stood from the chair I felt myself relax. “But are you the one for my grandson?”.

And here we go... another one who thought I wasn't good enough. They all thought I was beautiful but just that I wasn't enough.

“How about we get some coffee?”. Charlotte suggested.

“Of course, go right ahead. I want to talk to Leah on my own for a second”.

oh god!

I stood awkwardly by the door as Alanna and Charlotte left the room. I could handle a lot of shade being thrown at me but I couldn't deal with his gran not liking me,

Your gran was your gran.

“Come sit". As she sat in the same seat as before I took the one beside her. “I have something for you”. Digging around in her bag she pulled out a small black box.

My stomach was in knots.

“Can I let you in on a little secret”. The way she cradled the box told me that what ever was inside was special and meant a lot to her.

“Of course”. I whispered.

“The first night Jake saw you he phoned me and asked for this”.

I was afraid of what was inside. I had a pretty good feeling I already knew but I wasn't ready for that. I wasn't ready to be forced up the aisle.

We still had a long way to go in our relationship before any ring was to be placed on my finger.

“My grandson has a temper, believe me I've seen him at his worst, but the minute you came to town he changed. It was like a switch had been flipped”.

And here I thought I had seen him at his worst. Jake most certainly did have a temper but he had yet to make me afraid of him.

“All we seem to do is bicker”. I wasn't sure why I was telling her this. “He's away for weeks and the last thing we did was argue’.

“It happens and itll continue to happen because he can't control you”.

“Control me?". I frowned.

“He's an Alpha werewolf sweetheart. He leads a pack of wolfs that all obey him. They obey him because he is their leader. His power has no effect on you because you are human’.

That wasn't exactly true. I still felt the need to bow my head at times. I still felt like I had to obey him. Yes most of the time I didn't listen and did the opposite of what he asked but it didn’t mean I didn't feel the urge to comply.

“But you feel it don't you?" She smiled. “And you fight it".

“Ym just not used to it". I had never had someone like Jake. He was the most arrogant, pig headed guy I had ever met and yet he was also the sweetest. He protected me in ways I had never experienced. He was beginning to become someone I couldn't be without.

He really cared about me.

“How long before you mate?".

“You don’t already know?". My tone gave away that I was being sarcastic.

“Been a little hectic around here for you?".

“You could say that" I sighed.

I wasn't afraid of mating heck I wasn't even afraid of the mark he would give me. I was just fed up with the sly little digs I received.

“Do you know what this is?". She sat the black box she was holding on the arm of the chair beside me.

Shaking my head no I sunk my teeth into my bottom lip. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on FindNovel.net. Visit FindNovel.net to read the complete chapters for free. Just by having this conversation I knew she wasn't the judging type, I also knew that she wasn't going to give me any issues and maybe just maybe she actually liked me.

“This is my wedding ring, Jake knows you're the one sweetheart. Yes you have been chosen for him but I know he loves you already”

“H-how do you know?” My voice was barely a whisper. Jake wasn't very good at showing how he felt. He was good at throwing his weight about and making sure everyone knew he was the boss. I had seen a litle of his softer side but I wouldn't say that he loved me.

Not yet anyway.
