The Alpha Chose Me

Heading back inside I took the cup my gran was offering and sat on the sofa. I couldn't stop thinking about what had just happened. The way he grabbed my wrist, the way he pulled me to him. He sniffed me for petes sake. Who does that?

But weirdly enough even though I was scared I wanted him to touch me again.

"Leah, honey you there?" My gran laughed knocking me out of my thoughts. "Alanna was telling me she attends the school you've enrolled into".

I had forgotten about school.

"Great, school" Rolling my eyes I sat my cup down. I only had another 6 months and then I'd be finished. But it was 6 months of trying to fit in and not be the new girl.

"Thanks for inviting me over. I have to get home. Leah here's my number just in case you need anything". Taking it from her I smiled. I knew I was a little sceptical about her before but she was the only person I knew here and I needed someone. "No need to get up I only live there".

As I heard the door close I looked at my gran.

"She seems like a nice girl honey, maybe your first friend here. That brother of hers though, He seems like a bit of an asshole".

I burst out laughing. I always found it funny to hear my gran swear. She was always so reserved, swear words weren't her thing.

"But a good looking asshole". She grinned.

I had to agree with her there. He was beautiful.

"I already think he likes you" She winked picking up my cup. "He couldn't keep his eyes off you".

"Gran" I groaned. My gran was my gran but she wasn't ancient. She had my mom when she was 16 so she was still pretty young herself. People always mistook her for being my mom.

"I'm just saying" She smiled "Try and get some sleep I know it's not the best but you'll have a bed by tomorrow".

"I will night gran love you".

"Love you too sweetheart".

I wasn't tired yet. My mind wouldn't turn off. Ever since we got here everything has been weird. From the moment we stopped at that gas station. Taking out my phone I added Alanna's number to my contacts. Opening up a new message I began to type.

'Its Leah, sorry if I came across as a bitch. Didn't mean to be. New town and all that. Thanks for being so welcoming :)'

After hitting send I didn't wait to long for a reply.

'Just a little bit of a bitch lol I'm joking!! Sorry about my brother. Told you he was a bit of an ass but he does have a good heart. Anyways do you want to go for coffee tomorrow? my treat' A x'

I didn't know if I should mention what her brother did or just keep it to myself.
