CHAPTER 19

The next day was a Saturday so I got up early and decided to get changed and go for a jog through town while there was no one around except warriors training and when I got back to the packhouse I grabbed a bottle of water out of the fridge and I took it up to my bedroom.

I went inside and had a shower and got dressed and I headed down to kitchen and there was no one in the kitchen yet. So I Made my own breakfast and I sat at the kitchen island while eating and reading a book.

“I thought you were a teenager? Don’t they usually sleep in on weekends?” Alpha Jackson asked walking into the room only wearing a pair of shorts.

“I’m used to getting up early. At Richmond Pack I was always put on the early shift on weekends. I think it’s just habit now.” I say barely looking up from my book.

“What are you reading?” He asked looking at the cover of my book.

“A classic.” I say.

“Pride and Prejudice. I’ve never had the patients for that book, or movie.” He says walking over to the counter.

“No. You’re just ignorant.” I say smirking behind the book. I knew that he was glaring at me when I said that but I didn’t care. I called as I saw it.

“Have you got any plans today?” He asked getting a coffee and he sat on the other side of the island.

“No. Just hanging around the packhouse. Nothing more to do.” I say putting my book down. There’s plenty of work to get caught up on.” He says smiling at me.

“I don’t know why you’re smiling. I was planning on working today as well.” I say.

“Why aren’t you out with your friends?” He asked cautiously.

Well, I guess things have been a little strained since they believed those rumours about me instead of talking to me first. They know that I always tell the truth. No matter how bad it is. And I would have told them straight out if us two were hooking up. But they never asked and assumed the worst. And gave me the silent treatment because of it.” I explained still eating my breakfast. Well, that’s their loss then.” He says.

“Do you have much planned today?” I asked.

“There’s plenty of work to get caught up on.” He says smiling at me.

“I don’t know why you’re smiling. I was planning on working today as well.” I say.

“Well, that’s their loss then.” He says.

“I have to go and meet with patrols and stuff like that. Do a few things around the pack. But that shouldn’t take more than a couple of hours.” He says.

the office and I got started with work and Alpha Jackson got dressed and headed out to

the office for hours before I finally finished all the files. Including my mothers. And it mentioned in there her mates, past and present, and children and father of the children. So I kept to the file and said that Thomas was my father. I didn’t know what else to put. Things were too messed up at the moment for me to actually put down the truth. I didn’t even know my real father’s name, so that wasn’t going to help

I put them in the filing cabinet and then I grabbed a hold of a notebook that was sitting on the coffee table and it was full of all the pack members and their roles in the pack. So I opened up a different document and started inputting all this information as well. So we could see who is a warrior and stuff like that. And it would be easier to work out rosters as well. Because the people that managed the businesses in town didn’t do any of that, apparently Alpha Jackson did. Which explains why he is always so god damn busy with paper work.
