The Alpha Chose Me
Chapter 265

We didn’t go for a walk. We got in his truck and took off down the street.

“Are you hungry?". He asked.

“Not really”.

“Can I take you for coffee then?"

“I guess”. My stomach was in knots. Carter wasn't being Carter. Something was off.

“Starbucks?".

A sigh fell from my lips. “Is it gran?" I asked.

I hadn't heard from her since Saturday and I thought maybe she had reached out to him. Carter and I were always so close when we were growing up.

That was until he turned into a wolf.

“Is what gran?".

“Why are you taking me for coffee?”

“A catch up bear. Want to make sure you're doing okay".

“You're a real bad liar". I crossed my arms over my chest, diverting my gaze. He was hiding something.

A laugh fell from his lips. “I do need to talk to you but there's no rush. I thought getting you out and about for some fresh air would be good”.

During my heat?

I went with it, and didn’t ask anymore questions. We went through the drive-thru but instead of heading back home he pulled into a parking space and cut the engine.

“How has it been?".

“Do you really want to hear about my heat?" I took a sip of my iced coffee. “Because 'd much rather not talk about it and especially not with you",

“Not your heat bear. I heard about everything that happened. Jake can be a right a*****e at times”.

I couldn't argue with that but I wanted to know how he knew. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on FindNovel.net.

If jake and I were arguing everyone knew about it.

“Did he tell you?"

“Alanna did".

I sighed. “Of course, she did. Do you know sometimes I feel like 'm in a relationship with his whole family".

“Have you told them to back off?".

“No”.

“Maybe start there”. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Just like that?". I grinned.

He shrugged. “It's the only way they'll stop. Jake is like a ticking time bomb. They're probably scared you up and leave". “I've been tempted a few times”.

“I don't blame you".

“It's not all flowers and rainbows. It's hard at times especially when he struggles to control his temper”.

“Man up".

I almost choked on my coffee. Did he just tell me to man up?

“You're just as powerful as him. Having you with him makes him stronger. Next time he f**s up do something about it". “Like what?"

“Ym sure you'll think of something”.

“Are you going to tell me what's going on?" I asked.

“My dad wants me to go home".

My stomach knotted. I knew this was coming. He refused the first time but I knew it was only a matter of time before his Beta status kicked in.

“You have to take up your role, don't you?".

“something like that". He shrugged.

“And Alanna?".

“she’s not happy about leaving her family but she's on board with it".

They were leaving.

I would have no family here if Carter leaves.

“50, you've already made up your mind”.

I would never beg him to stay. He had a duty to his pack and sadly his pack wasn't this one. He was second in command, a fighter, a leader and he wasn't getting that here.

Here he was just a wolf.

“I can't leave until I know you're happy and settled. I know you've had a rough time but I need to know you'll be okay”. “Ym always okay".

“But are you happy?"

“Ym happy’.

“Bear”.

“You're right it has been tough. The shit I had to put up with and deal with over the last 6 months hasn't been the best but I done it. I know this is where 'm supposed to be. Jake and I have a long way to go before we're perfect but I'm happy with where were at right now".

“Promise me something?”

“What?".

“Next time he fucks up you lay his a*s out’.

A laugh fell from my lips as he started the engine. “I swear”.

it hadn't sunk in that Carter and Alanna were leaving. Not for another month right enough but still it was big news.

I would have no one to vent too anymore. Alanna was my first friend here and yes; I was sad that she was leaving.

“Babe, you ready?". He walked into our bedroom suited and booted.

He sure was handsome.

“You scrub up nice". I teased.
