Chapter 227
I couldn’t stop thinking about Alanna. I felt bad for her and what happened. I understood that Jake was her Alpha but I think it got a little out of hand. I mean challenging him brought death?
Surely not right?
“You okay p>
“Yes”. I smiled.
I wasn’t going to bring it up. I knew better than to question his actions, especially his Alpha side. I learned quickly that somethings were better left unsaid. “Listen about what happened with Alanna p>
“You don’t need to explain anything to me. I get it. You’re her Alpha, it had to be done p>
“Right”. He frowned scratching the back of his head.
“Must be hard though considering she’s also your sister p>
“My wolf doesn’t see that when she’s challenging his position. I was born Alpha, Rylee didn’t want it so it is rightfully mine p>
“Does it really come down to death?”. I whispered.
“Afraid so princess p>
“Can anyone challenge you p>
“Where you going with this Leah p>
“Just curious”. I shrugged. “Has anyone challenged you before p>
“No but if anyone does they better come hard because I don’t lose p>
Of course he would say something like that.
“I’m going to take a shower and grab an early night”. He grabbed my wrist as I went to pass by him.
“You sure you’re okay p>
For once I was okay. I didn’t think he was wrong for what he did. Maybe he took it a little too far but not wrong. He was our Alpha and I respected his decision.
“I’m okay I promise”. Leaning up my lips connected with his cheek. “I’ll see you when you come up p>
“No p>
“Come on baby p>
“It’s still dark outside”. I groaned.
“You’re eyes are still shut”. He chuckled.
“Yes because it’s still the middle of the night”. I turned onto my side pulling the covers up and over my head.
“I promise it’ll be worth it p>
“Jake”. I huffed removing the covers from my face and opening my eyes. His grin was contagious, I couldn’t stop my own. “I’m not changing p>
“You don’t have to just bring a jumper p>
A yawn escaped my mouth as I pushed the covers off and got out of bed. “I’m so tired”. I muttered walking towards the bathroom.
He was already dressed and wide awake. A little eager considering it was still the middle of the bloody night.
I pulled on my jumper and grabbed my phone from the bedside drawers. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on. Visit to read the complete chapters for free. It wasn’t even five o’clock yet. Heading downstairs I found him in the kitchen holding two flasks, filled with coffee I hope.
“Where are we going that it needed to happen now p>
“The beach to watch the sunrise”. I took the flask he was holding out for me.
Okay that was worth the early rise. I couldn’t hide my grin. As I’ve said before. It was my favourite thing to do back in Florida.
“Told you it was worth it”. He winked.
He wasn’t wrong. No matter how many times I watched the sun rise it still gave me the same feeling.
We were lying in the bed of his truck. No words were spoken, both just taking in the view.
Turning my head so I could look at him I chewed the inside of my cheek. My heart felt like it was going to burst. Not with lust but love.
I loved him.
I was in love with him.
Feeling the lump in the back of my throat I looked away. I didn’t understand why I couldn’t just tell him. Every time I built up the courage the nerves took over.
But he had already said it to me so I knew I had nothing to worry about. I knew he felt the same.
Jake Taylor loved me.
“Frown any harder and your face will stay like that princess p>
I rolled my eyes at his smirk.
