Mine - The Alpha's Possession

CHAPTER 21

I was lying in bed that night with Jackson lying in bed next to me and he pulled me closer to him and I rested my head on his chest.

“When I got out of the shower you were already in the hallway. You looked pretty troubled about something.” I say.

“Yeah. I was really troubled about something.” He says.

Are you going to tell me what it was?” I asked looking up at him. And he let out a deep breath and looked hesitant about talking about it.

“Honestly, it was hearing about what that guy was going to do to you.” He says.

“That he was going to rape me?” I asked. And I could feel Jackson tense up as I said

“I don’t want to think about anyone else touching you like that.” He says rubbing little circles on my back and I smiled a little.

“You mean, besides you?” I asked looking at us both under the covers naked. And he kissed the top of my head.

“I’m not sure that this was such a good idea.” He says. And I stopped moving. Are you saying that you already regret it?” I asked.

“What? No. I don’t regret it. It’s just, that I’m the Alpha and you’re still in high school.” He says.

“I’ll be 18 soon. Very soon. Besides, since when does that matter around here?” I asked getting a little offensive.

“No. Don’t get upset. I wouldn’t take this back for the world. Believe me. I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said anything. I don’t regret it. And it’s not just because you were here. It was because it was you that I did it.” He says.

“I’ve noticed that you haven’t had any girls’ coming or going since I moved in.” I commented smirking.

‘Well, I haven’t been interested in any of them.” He says flatly.

If you say so.” I say. And he wrapped his other arm around me and pulled me closer and squeezed me to him. Like he didn’t want to let me go.

I could tell that he didn’t regret it. And I could tell that it wasn’t as mistake. I didn’t feel like it was a mistake. But I knew that it wasn’t something that we could announce to the whole pack either. We needed to be very careful about who found out about this. People thought I was sleeping with the Alpha before and the rumours went wild. Now that it’s the truth, it would be even more insane.

I didn’t want Jackson to be distracted by any of that. I could handle myself and the rumours, but he was the one that I needed to really think about here. He had the most to lose.

“Taylor.” Jackson says after a long pause.

“Yeah.” I say.

What did your mother do that made you want to move out?” He asked. And this time I took a deep breath. I knew that it was time to tell someone. I just hoped that he wouldn’t treat me differently.

“Well, I don’t want anyone to know because they might start acting weird around me. I don’t want anyone to know. “I say making sure that he got the point.

“I have no intention of telling anyone. He says. And I sat up with the sheet wrapped around my chest. And he sat up behind me. Do you promise not to look at me differently?” I asked looking straight ahead and not at him.

‘What is it?” He asked putting his hand on my shoulder.

“My dad isn’t my dad. Thomas thinks that he is as well because my mother lied to him about getting a DNA test done. She told him the results came back positive that he was the father but she never even got the test done. When you said that you could tell that there was something different about me, my mother knew that she was wrong all along about Thomas being my father.” I explained.
