The Alpha Chose Me
Chapter 231

“They didn’t want to brake up the little party you were having". Rylee smirked.

jake had set off with Carter and Rocco to start their patrol. Alanna, Lacey and Lana were out back sharing a bottle of shots. Bold Rylee was the one sent in to break up our little party as she put it.

“Nothing happened”. I grinned. “Are they going to come in?"

“Alanna has it the fire. 'm going to sort some snacks. Pour yourself a drink and go sit with your friends”. She smiled. Rylee was like the big sister I never had. We didn't see each other much but when she was here she always went out of her way for me. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on FindNovel.net.

I didn’t want to deal with the aftermath.

These girls liked to drink and I couldn't keep up.

“so what we talking about?”. I closed the patio door behind me and sat beside Lana.

“Graduation, tripping over our gowns”. Lacey grinned.

“Don’t worry if you gals fall 'll still cheer you on”. Lana smirked.

“Flat shoes”. I shrugged. “Sensible idea”.

“It could still happen”. Lacey added.

Alanna was quiet. She was like the silent assassin. My eyes landed on hers, she grinned.

“You all good?” She asked

“lam”.

“And Jake?"

And there it was. I felt the heat flare over my cheeks. We literally couldn't do anything without someone catching us. We kissed, it wasn't a big deal. Couples kiss.

“He's good”. I took a sip of my beer. “We're really good”.

“Oh we know". She winked.

I rolled my eyes. “Of course you do”.

“What”. She frowned. “We like when yous are good”.

“Yeah because I decide what mood he's going to be in right?”

“Damn right". Lacey laughed.

“Prom dresses”. Lana said. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“What?". I laughed.

“Enough about Jake”. She sighed. “Prom, let's talk about prom”.

“Last one”. I said.

“Exactly so let's make it the best". She grinned.

They were wasted.

Bottles of shots, bottles of wine. You name it they drank it. I on the other hand was stone cold sober.

“Let's shift and go for a run. Alanna I'll race you”. Lacey grinned.

“No fare I'm not a wolf". Lana groaned.

I wasn't doing that. I couldn't shift on demand.

“Let's do it". Alanna started ripping the clothes from her body, Lacey followed. “Come on Leah. We can meet jake in the woods”.

“No I'm good here". I smiled. “And you guys are drunk. I don't think it's a good idea”.

“We're not drunk, we can't get drunk. Well we can but we haven't had enough alcohol for that”. Lacey laughed

They hadn't had enough alcohol my a*s.

“You guys go. I'll stay here with Lana.

“I'm going”. Lana said. “I can’t turn into a wolf but I sure can run”.

veah that probably wasn't going to end well. She'd end up getting lost.

“Race ya". Alanna ran off into the woods.

“You sure you don’t want to come?”. Lacey asked.

“I'm sure”.

“suit yourself”, She went off in the direction Alanna took, Lana running close behind her.

I put the beer down I was holding and wrapped the blanket around my shoulders. It was peaceful out here. Rylee had disappeared inside a while ago. Something about West returning through the night.

It wasn't late and I wasn't tired but at the same time I couldn't wait to get into bed. I wasn't overly excited for prom but I was looking forward to dressing up and having the best time with my friends.

And Jake of course.

One last hora before we went into the big bad world.

“What you thinking about?”.

I smiled at Rylee and took the beer she was offering. “Life after school. What 'm going to do”. That was something I still had to figure out.

“What do you want to do?". She asked.

I shrugged.

“Could always work for Jake". She suggested. “I'm sure he'd love that".

“I want to study English literature”. That would have been my major if I went to Yale.

“Let me guess”. She took a sip of her beer. “You got into a really good school but turned it down”.

She was good but she wasn't that good. Someone obviously told her what had happened. But I played along.

“Yale”.

“Pretty and smart’. She grinned. “Jake have something to do with you turning it down?".

“It's too far away".

“so he did",

“How did you do it?" I asked.

“A whole lot of frustration, tears and will power”. She laughed. “It wasn't easy and when I look back I realised how much time we had lost".

“I couldn't be that far away from him”. I didn't have the will power, I wasn't strong enough.

“It helped that he didn't know where I was”.

“Yeah that would help”. I smiled.

“If you want to do something, achieve something then do it. Jake would never stop you and if he tried I'd whoop his ass”. “Ym sure you could take him’. I grinned.

“I could". She winked. “Didn't you want to go for a run with the rest of them?".

“Not really feeling it".

“You want to talk about anything?”.

“My gran left me the deeds to her house and a cheque for $250, 000”.

“Wow”.

“Yeah”.

“That's a lot of money”.

“I don't want it”. She could keep the money, keep the house. I would trade it all for an explanation.
