Alpha Blake novel Chapter 7

　　Selene 

　　Blake returned earlier than usual from what I thought today. Usually, when he says he has a meeting, he is gone all day. But today he returned mid-day, and he looked a bit disconcerting. 

　　"Hi, Ty, hi sweetheart. Are you hungry? Would you like me to make you something to eat?" I asked genuinely happy, standing from my seat to greet both.

　　I kissed Ty on his cheek, and he returned the gesture by placing his hand over mine and giving me a warm, but melancholic smile in return. I squint my eyes a bit, narrowing my eyebrows. 

　　He looked away and walked towards Jazzy, kneeling down before her. He turned her chair a bit and hugged her around her waist. She wrapped her hands around him, glancing over me with the same curious concern I had in the pit of my stomach. 

　　I smiled at Blake, although he didn't return the smile. He simply looked down to conceal the frustration written over his face. He held out a hand I immediately took it, as he pulled me close to him engulfing me with a tight hug around my waist. He placed his face around my neck, inhaling deep, and kissing me on my mark.

　　"Baby what's wrong? Did something bad happen? What's going on Blake?" I whispered, making him tighten his grasp on me. I took a big sigh, wrapping my arms over his neck, holding him tight.

　　I don't know how long we were there hugging, but I didn't pull away. I simply enjoyed the moment. If it was something that made him feel better, then I'd stay there until he needed me to be.

　　It must have been a good ten or fifteen minutes before he finally decided to pull away. We had not noticed that Jazzy and Ty had left until Blake pulled away from the hug.

　　I cupped his face and tried to see into his eyes. My wolf and I could feel that there was something wrong. I kissed his lips gently. Pecking him lightly, before he embraced me again and deepened the kiss.

　　He took me in his arms holding me bridal style and walked back into the house heading straight into my old room.

　　"Blake, why did you bring me back in this room? What's going on?" I asked completely confused as he gently put me down. 

　　He looked around the room, over every detail of the room, and then stopped his gaze on the bed. He took a long sigh and placed his hands on his hips.

　　"Selene, if there was a secret I was withholding against you.... you'd want me to tell you right?" He asked as he began to pace around the room.

　　I crossed my hands, tilted my head to the side without averting my gaze away from him.

　　"I,... I guess, yes. I suppose I'd want you to tell me. Blake, what's this about? Is there something you need to tell me or ask me?" My heart began to raise. I didn't like where this was going.

　　"The meeting I had today. It was, to meet with the elders." He calmly said as he kept at a steady pace.

　　"Oh.... and what business did you have to discuss with them?" I asked, my hands became clammy and my voice shaky. 

　　" A very, important matter.... do you have any idea what that matter could be Selene?" He asked as he made his way slowly towards me. Making me back up until I hit the dresser behind me, he was now with his face just inches away from me.

　　He propped forward to have his face against mine since he was a good whole foot taller than I was.

　　"N-n-no, I h-have no idea, Blake.." I said my voice breaking as I gripped the dresser behind me with dear life. Even Hazel was whimpering and had herself propped in the ground in submission. 

　　"Seriously Haze, this is not the time for us to act like a coward. " I said to her.
