Alpha Jackson was my former Alpha, but Blake also knew Dylan. Blake would be more loyal to them because they were also Alphas. I was simply a rogue that was causing him problems. Fear was settling in at being with Blake and not knowing what he would do next.I was a minute away from telling him that I ran away from Dylan, but maybe it was better if I went back.After all, I preferred Dylan a million times over going back to my pack, how things had been before, or the punishment I would face for running away.In the moment I was about to speak, the home phone rang. Blake got the annoyed look he had all day when his phone was ringing non-stop.He walked out of the dining room and to his office. I followed him, wondering who could be calling so late.When we walked into his office, the phone had already rung plenty of times, but it was still going."Hello," Blake answered the phone, his tone different than when he spoke to me.Throughout the day, I noticed how he was like any regular A
I woke up the next day feeling restless. There was a knock on the door and I sat up from the bed, running a hand through my hair."Leila, are you awake?" Blake's voice came from the other side of the door."I'm up. You can come in," I replied.I fixed the comforter, trying to cover up my bare legs. I was only wearing Blake's oversized shirt, and I didn't want anything on display- that shouldn't be.Blake walked in looking great. He had already showered, and wore jeans and a dark polo shirt.I raised an eyebrow, waiting for him to speak."How did you sleep?" Blake asked, walking to stand in front of my bed."I've slept better, but you own one hell of a comfortable bed," I told him. He replied with a chuckle."You missed him, didn't you?" Blake asked, with a knowing look."Are you going to give me breakfast?""Nice change of subject, and yes. Be ready, we're going out," Blake informed me, getting up from the bed."Where are we going?""A nice restaurant in town. Don't worry, you'll love
"Let's go inside. It's starting to get fresh out," Blake said, unlocking his door and letting us in.He walked to his study, with Michael by his side. I didn't know what else to do, so I followed along after them."I need to tell you some things, it's about the pack," Michael said, giving Blake a look and then nodding at me.I smiled, catching his drift of wanting me out of the room."It's okay, I'm leaving to my room," I told the pair. Blake chuckled at Michael, giving me an amused look."I don't think so Leila. You're still under my watch," he said, looking at me."You can speak in front of her. It's okay," Blake told Michael. Even though Michael looked unsure, he didn't question Blake."It's actually about her I want to talk about. Yesterday, Russell was here and he said the girl threatened to get him kicked out of the pack. He told Linda and from there, it spread throughout the pack. Everyone now wants to know if it's true that she's your mate," Michael said, not wasting a breat
Once Blake had gathered the men that would accompany him, we left outside. I thought we would run, but Blake said it was better if we drove there. He'd drop me off somewhere about an hour before we reached Dylan's land.I was feeling more and more nervous by the minute, but I knew it was the right thing to do."Relax, everything will be fine," Blake said. He was sitting next to me. We were in one of three SUVs that were driving there. Blake had planned to only take about four men. After some convincing from me, he finally settled for ten. Blake and I had our own truck and one the guy's was driving us there."I'm not so sure of that. With Dylan, you just never know," I replied, feeling my palms getting sweaty."If he tries anything, you know you can just call me and I'll pick you up from there," Blake said, trying to comfort me.I nodded but didn't add anything else."We're here," the guy driving stated."Thanks Jake," Blake said, before opening his door and getting out. He helped m
Dylan raised an eyebrow, but his eyes still held the fiery anger they did a moment ago."I can explain what happened. Blake isn't even involved. He was the one who brought me back," I told Dylan, willing him to believe me.Eric was still trying to get me to move away from Dylan, but I didn't give him a chance to try anything."Please, let me explain first," I said to him. I finally got out from Eric's arms and I clung to Dylan like my life depended on it.I wrapped my arms around his neck, wanting him to pay attention to me and leave Blake out of it.More and more guys from Dylan's pack had arrived. Easy they were about forty or fifty men- who would easily take down Blake. He only had ten men. It wouldn't be a fair fight."Leila, it's alright. If Dylan wants to fight, that's what we'll do," Blake stated.Dylan growled at him. He wrapped his arm around my waist, and I felt that was a good thing."See, if he wants to get killed- you should let him," Dylan said to me, but keeping his st
I woke up the next day and instead of being in the floor, I was in my bed. I yawned once, and looked around to see that I was in Dylan's room. I smiled, knowing that it had been him who carried me to bed. He wasn't in the room though.I took a shower, needing to relax my muscles from how tense I felt. I had to talk to Dylan. I needed to explain why I ran away and how it wasn't Blake's fault. Most importantly, he needed to know what had happened with my pack and Alpha Nicolas.I brushed my hair, doing a side braid and trying to make it look nice. I applied some light make up and chose some jean shorts with a lilac colored thin blouse.When I finished getting ready, I walked downstairs. I had already sensed around and noticed that Dylan wasn't in the house. When I walked into the kitchen, I saw Eric and John in there."Hey," I said, waving at the two.Both of them smiled at me, and greeted me."Do you guys know where Dylan is?" I asked them, as I looked inside the fridge."I'm not sur
Dylan ended up carrying me upstairs to our room. We were laying down in bed, with Dylan over me. His body easily covered mine. He was a lot bigger than my small frame.I loved how good his body felt so close to mine, yet he kept all his weight resting on his arms.He was trailing kisses down my jaw and toward my mark. My heart was beating faster, feeling expectant of what would be happening."Are you okay?" Dylan asked, sitting up a little and looking at me.I was out of breath, so I simply nodded my head."I missed you so much," he said, completely sitting up in the bed. I wasn't expecting him to say that.I stayed lying down for a little while, not understanding why he moved away from me."I miss you too," I replied softly, getting on my knees in front of him, and then resting myself on my legs.Dylan ran a hand through his hair, with a defeated expression on his face."I've killed more rogues than I can count," Dylan said, staring off into the distance.I didn't know why he was tel
"Wait here, I'm going to check who it is," Dylan said, as he made his way to the door.I followed after him, feeling nervous about the person at the door."Do you think that's them already?" I asked nervously.Dylan laughed, and shook his head."No. They were going to wait until I got to where they are, before entering my land," Dylan stated.Dylan quickly opened the door and in walked Jace, along with three other guys I didn't know."Alphas," the three guys said, almost simultaneously."Dylan, Leila," Jace said, looking between Dylan and me."What happened?" Dylan asked, keeping his eyes on Jace. Jace had been looking at me, but quickly resumed his Beta role and started talking to Dylan."Nicolas is here. He came along with Jackson and his Beta," Jace informed Dylan."Nicolas' Beta?" I asked, getting into the conversation. All the guys, including Dylan, stared at me as I asked that."No, the Beta from Jackson's pack," Jace finished saying. My heart felt like it stopped beating for a
