The Alpha Chose Me (Leah and Jake) novel Chapter 44

The Alpha Chose Me Chapter 44

Walking the short distance home I caught sight of Lana at my bedroom window. My gran wasn’t strict, she wasn’t controlling she was actually a cool gran but when it came down to it she was hard faced when she needed to be.

This was one of those situations. I was going to get my ass chewed for no reason. I knew Lana wasn’t going to get off lightly it just meant the two of us were getting an earful. Walking up the path I took a deep breath before heading inside.

“In here Leah”. The good thing was George was here. Maybe she wouldn’t be to hard. Kicking off my shoes I ignored the vibrations coming from my pocket. Whoever that was could wait.

Taking a seat on the arm chair I waited for what was to come. Lana was getting her ass kicked for this one. She knew better and she knew what my gran was like.

“You come in here as well Lana. I want to speak to you both”. She walked in her head bowed her gaze fixed on the floor. Glancing at her she gave me a small smile.

“You’re not kids anymore”. My gran sighed. “But you both know my rules. They haven’t changed just because we moved house”. Glancing at George she took the hand he was offering.

Why did I have a feeling this conversation wasn’t about Lana and her having a boy here.

“What’s you plans Lana? Are you staying with us permanently, are you just visiting?”.

“Staying permanently”. She whispered.

“Do you plan on finishing school?”. She asked.

“I do Miss Wilson I’m just waiting to hear back. I will pay my way and I won’t be any hassle. I am sorry about today”.

“Nonsense you’re family honey and well what happened today won’t happen again will it?”. She asked just as my phone began to vibrate again.

“It won’t I promise and thank you for letting me stay”. She smiled.

“My girls under one roof again”. She laughed. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. She was so cool about it all. “Leah did you invite Jake over for dinner?”. She asked.

“I haven’t yet but I will”. Something was going on with her and I couldn’t quite put my finger on it. I would find out sooner or later though.

…

“I swear I thought she was going to give us an earful”. Lana laughed as she fell onto my bed.

“Give you an earful, I wasn’t the one sucking face in the living room”. Checking my phone I grinned when I saw the message.

‘Big bad wolf isn’t that scary is he?’

“I didn’t have Pete in my bed”. Snapping my head up I glared at her grinning face. My gran didn’t need to know that Jake had spent a few nights here. “Stop glaring your face will stay like that”. She sighed.

“So Pete?”. I asked replying to Jakes message.

‘More cuddly than scary;)’

I knew he’d hate that reply.

“He’s hot”. She winked. “And we get on really well. First date I’ve been on where I haven’t phoned you for backup”.

If only she knew.

“Seeing him again then?”. I asked.

“Maybe. I like to keep them hanging”. She smirked. “Why’s Jake coming for dinner?”.

“She’s knows we’re seeing each other”. I missed out the part about her wanting to give him the third degree. I hope she was kidding. She did seem to like him and she got on well with his parents.

“My girl is finally upgrading. He’s fine, I bet his dicks bigger than Tommy’s”. She laughed.

Rolling my eyes I sunk my teeth into my bottom lip. I could already feel the heat forming on my cheeks. Her and than damn mouth.

“Lana”. I groaned.

“Oh come on you can’t actually say the sex was good”. Pulling out her phone I noticed the little smile that played on her lips.

“Lover boy?”. I asked.

“Maybe but seriously I bet he’s got abs for days”. Chewing her bottom lip she closed her eyes and moaned. “Tell me you’re screwing him?”.

“Lana”. I couldn’t help the jealousy rising within me. I didn’t like her speaking about him like that. Jake wasn’t fair game.

“Hey”. Snapping her fingers she caught my attention. “I’m just messing around I didn’t mean to make you feel uncomfortable”.

“I really like him”. Taking a seat at my window I stared up at the sky. “Like I haven’t ever felt this way before”.

“Boys crazy for you. I could tell the minute I saw him with you. You’ve got nothing to worry about”.

“You think so?”. I asked. I always had this little bit of doubt in the back of my mind. What if I wasn’t good enough for him?

“I know so”. She smirked. “Wanna do something?”. She was typing away on her phone. It wouldn’t be long before she was hung up on Pete. It didn’t take long for the bond to work on me.

“Like what?”. I still had to ask Jake to dinner. I was confident he would say yes. He loved showing off to my gran.

“We could dress up, go out just us gals?”. She grinned. Her phone was vibrating like crazy.

I didn’t want to go out. I had school in the morning and so did she. “We’re up early tomorrow and I don’t know how long dinner will take. You remember when she invited Tommy for dinner?”.

“That didn’t end well”. She made a face. “Your gran hated him”.

“I wouldn’t say hate”. I sighed. She just didn’t get a good feeling off him. Me on the other hand. I adored the ground he walked on.

“She knew he was no good for you but good old Leah sees the good in everyone”. She sighed giving me an eye roll.

“It’s not a bad thing”. I huffed. I wasn’t quick to judge. “He was good to me”.

“He was a snake that kept you all to himself, he manipulated you, he would always make you change your plans making you think it was your idea. Best thing you ever did was move away”.
