Chapter 274
She smirked. “You wanted to kick her a*s at the dinner the other night, didn’t you p>
“I haven’t felt anger like that before, my wolf was clawing at my skin to get out. I have no idea how I managed to control her p>
“Well, it wasn’t Jake. You almost clawed his eyes out”. She laughed. “You did good though. Some people would have shifted there and then”. “Do you think she’ll come back p>
“Honestly, I don’t know. I wouldn’t worry though because if she does, he’ll kill her no questions asked. She’s an outsider now, her family to p>
“Good to know”. It annoyed me that everyone thought I was worried. I hated the feeling of people thinking I was weak and afraid. I wasn’t scared of Jessica or her wolf.
I felt her, I felt my wolf bring herself forward. It was the strangest feeling ever, but it soothed me knowing that I could rely on her.
“Your eyes have changed. Is your wolf present?”. She asked.
“Why does everyone think I’m worried about Jessica?”. I asked. “Do people think I’m afraid of her p>
“Leah nobody p>
“Does everyone think I’m weak?”. Heat washed over my body, my breathing changed, my heartbeat rapid. My wolf was right at the surface, it was like I was looking out through her eyes. “Leah maybe p>
“We’re not fucking weak p>
“Don’t let her take control p>
She hadn’t and I wouldn’t let her, but it felt good. I felt strong and powerful. Looking through her eyes was like I was seeing things for the first time. I closed my eyes and counted to three in my head. “Leah p>
I opened my eyes. “I may not be the best werewolf in town, I may not have the ability to do what you guys do but trust me when I say I have full control over my wolf”. “Noted p>
“If my wolf ever does take over what will happen p>
“I don’t know. I’ve only ever witnessed Jake’s and it wasn’t pretty. He wasn’t Jake, he was mean, horrible even and he worked the pack to the bone. He treated my mom and dad so bad. He wouldn’t talk or listen to anyone and then he went on a killing spree”. My heart skipped a beat.
“A killing spree p>
“Rogue wolfs p>
“On the territory?”. I asked.
She shook her head. “He went looking for them. He was gone almost a year. My dad tried his hardest to keep track of him, but he was fast and good at hiding his tracks”. Wow.
“Don’t ever let her take over Leah. It’s hard to gain back control p>
“How did he get his back?”. I whispered.
“I don’t know. My mom sent me away to live with my gran, but I know it was a very dark part of his life. It’s probably why he hasn’t told you about it p>
“I’ve saw him lose control before, but he got it back almost instantly”. He wouldn’t let me leave his mom’s house. I was sat on the kitchen floor for hours.
She shrugged. “It’s not something he likes to talk about, but it was probably you that brought him back. He didn’t have you the first time. Are you ready to go p>
I couldn’t believe what she just told me. Jake killed people for what? Fun? Because they didn’t have a pack? I squeezed my eyes shut; my head starting to hurt. “Leah p>
“Yeah, I’m ready p>
The door chimed, instantly the hairs on the back of my neck stood. Turning to look a lump appeared in the back of my throat.
A man.
I knew straight away who he was.
My dad.
