The Alpha Chose Me Chapter 41

“Well don’t you two look cute”. Lana laughed. “So much for just hanging out”. Rolling my eyes I put some space between Jake and I. His glare didn’t go unnoticed. “Where’s Pete?”. I asked.

“Things got a little weird and then he tried to bite me. I’m not into love bites well not on my neck anyway”. She winked. “Do you have any more beer?”.

“He bit you?”. Jake asked through clenched teeth.

Lana grinned. “He tried hot stuff-…”

“Shut up and answer me. Did he bite you?”. He growled cutting her off.

“Jake”. I hissed. He didn’t need to be rude about it.

“Shut up Leah. Did he break the skin?”.

Why was he making such a big deal over a love bite? Before I knew what he was doing he had pulled her jacket down exposing her neck.

“Get off me”. She cried.

“Jake”. I yelled.

“A bite Leah a fucking bite. If he’s bit-…” He yelled running a hand down his face. “Go home both of you”. Storming his way out the kitchen he left me stood with my mouth hanging open.

He went from zero to a hundred in a matter of seconds.

“What the hell is his problem?”.

I had no idea.

“Let’s just go”. I sighed.

…….

Brushing out my hair I checked my phone for about the hundredth time since I got home. I still hadn’t heard from him.

“Just text him already”. Lana groaned.

After the way he spoke to me tonight. I wasn’t going to do that. He lashed out over a love bite. Who does that?

“Give me your phone”. She jumped up from my bed.

“Okay, okay I’ll put it away”. Plugging in my charger I hooked it to my phone and placed it on my drawers. “I won’t check it for the rest of the night”. Sitting on my window seat I glanced up at the night sky.

“Is he always like that?”. She asked.

“Not always”. Last time I saw him bad was when he turned into his wolf. He acts like a prick at times but I could handle him. I knew I could.

“He turned into an ass over a love bite that didn’t even happen. He didn’t bite me Leah, not that it’s any of his business”.

“I know”. I sighed.

“Don’t you let him speak to you like that again. He’s lucky I didn’t sucker punch him”.

That’s my girl. “He’s different Lana”. She had to know he wasn’t a bad person. He was sweet and kind. He was funny and always had me smiling. I needed for them to get along. First impressions weren’t working out great. Or should I say second impressions.

“They always are”. She sighed.

“He is I promise. Don’t let tonight paint a bad picture of him”.

“You really like him don’t you”.

“I do, so much so I think I’m falling for him”. I know we haven’t known each other for long but it all felt right. I wish I could describe how he made me feel.

“You barely know each other”. She sighed. “Don’t you think it’s a little fast to be falling for him?”.

“I can’t describe it Lana. I wish I could but deep down in my gut I know it’s right”. Giving her a small smile I got to my feet.

“Text him, call him, just do something. I know you want to”. She grinned.

I did but at the same time I didn’t. I didn’t like how he spoke to me tonight.

“I do I really do but I’m not going to”. Taking my phone off charge my stomach dropped. He still hadn’t reached out.

“Still nothing?”.

Shaking my head no I shrugged before giving her a smile. “Wanna eat left over pizza and drool over Damon Salvatore?”.

“You had me at pizza”. She grinned.

Heading downstairs I turned the living room light on making my way to the kitchen. I couldn’t get him out my head.

Why was it annoying me that he hadn’t messaged me?

Grabbing the pizza box I headed back upstairs. Jake Taylor was pissing me off and yet all I wanted was to see him.

“Your phone vibrated”. She smirked already in bed with the tv on. Passing her the pizza I grabbed my phone.

‘Is he with you? He threw everyone out, picked a fight with Pete and then left! Haven’t heard from him and can’t get a hold of him!! Wait did you two fight?!Ax’

‘Sorry he’s not with me and we didn’t have a fight. He freaked out over a freaking love bite!! Haven’t heard from him. Heading to bed speak tomorrow’

“What’s wrong?”. She asked.

“It’s Alanna she’s worried about Jake. She can’t get a hold of him”.

“You worried?”.

“I’m not worried”. Opening up a new message I typed it out. I didn’t know if it would work but I wanted to make sure he was safe.

‘Come over doors open x’
