"Amy he has the same tattoo as you." Aaron blurted out before I can stop him.
He talked in a hushed voice but with their advanced hearing, I know they heard it loud and clear. I turned my head towards Leo and he was already looking at me with confusion. He came towards me and checked my left bicep.
"There's no tattoo here Aaron." He said to Aaron.
"Oh not on the bicep, on her left shoulder. But how did you hear what I said?" I glared at Aaron to try to make him shut up.
Leo ignored him and yanked the towel off of me. His eyes widened in shock. I am so doomed.
"How did you get this tattoo?" he asked narrowing his eyes at me.
Think something Amara. Make something up real quick or you will be dead by the morning. Will they really hurt me?
"I got this in a tattoo parlour back at Esterden. Why did you ask?" I said keeping my face innocently curious, but my heart is running miles every second.
"Are you sure? Where did you get this design from?" he asked suspiciously.
"I told the tattoo artist to draw something tribal and he made me this. It must be really a coincidence that we have the same tattoos. But it’s cool right" I said faking excitement. Come on heart please work with me this time and slow down a little. I need to take acting classes real soon.
He looked in my eyes for few more seconds and stood up, like coming to a decision.
"I don't think the storm will slow down any sooner. You guys should stay here tonight." Leo said all the time looking right at me. Oh no he is suspicious about me. I think I am in a deep trouble.
Aaron gulped loudly beside me. Way to go bestie. I glared at him. He mouthed a sorry to me.
"I think we should get going. His parents must be worried about us. Our phone batteries are dead and we didn't get a chance to inform them about anything earlier." I replied.
"I said you are staying here tonight." Leo ordered.
He was emitting a very powerful aura. That means he is the Alpha. Oh my Gosh Tyler.
"And I said we have to leave." I said standing. Aaron also stood up.
"You will not leave this house until I order you to do so. Do you understand me?" he said coming right in front of me.
He is emitting a really powerful aura. Aaron whimpered beside me. He must be scared. This guy is really pissing me off. I would have punched him in the face if it wasn't for Tyler.
"Who the hell do you think you are to order me around? I will not follow your orders. Ever. Imprint that in your puny brain." I know I am emitting the same aura as him.
He flinched a bit but looked me right in the eye and ordered," Tie them up. Gather everyone. We are taking them to the meeting place. We are interrogating them."
"Yes Alpha." Caleb, Carter and Ryan said in unison. Caleb is standing by the door and Ryan is beside Leo.
My mouth hung open at his words and he continued to glare at me. Thomas and Linda already left the room. Why does he want everyone there? We are mere humans. Aaron took my hand in his and clutched it tightly. He is already shaking in fear. Carter came and embraced Aaron from behind. Aaron screamed and thrashed getting out of his hold. He hid behind me, clutching my sides tightly, digging his nails into my waist in the process. I was about to shout at Carter but he looked like he was about to cry.
