The Alpha Chose Me

Chapter 6

Turns out what they said was true.

He did have a good heart or so it seemed.

I had spent most of my time last night with Jake. Once I let my guard slip and let him in it was like I couldn't turn off. For me he was so easy to talk to but it didn't help that I was drawn to him. Like a moth to a flame as they say.

I still found it strange. I had never felt so attached to a person I didn't know before. It was like I had known him for years. I still believed my new friends were hiding something but I had decided to let it go. If they were going to tell me then they'll tell me.

It had just gone past 6am and I was planning on going out my first run since I got here. I wasn't a sporty person, I didn't do much exercise but I did enjoy a run first thing in the morning. I didn't have a beach but I did have an open forest that was right on my door step.

Clipping my iPod to my arm I placed my empty cup in the sink. My gran was still in bed, all the early mornings were starting to take toll on her. Pressing play I headed out the back door and began my journey.

I had given up.

I was officially lost and didn't have any reception. It also didn't help that I didn't know the area or that there was so many different paths to take. I thought it would have been one big circle, an easy path to follow but no.

"Why do I always get myself in these situations?" I groaned rubbing the sweat from my forehead. All I wanted was to go for a run and clear my head. With my back against a tree I slid down bringing my knees to my chest.

Maybe I should just pick a path and hope for the best? It was still early so I had lots of daylight left. To busy in my own thoughts I didn't hear them approach.

"Leah?".

Feeling my body relax I got to my feet. "You have no idea how happy I am to see you". Kane was standing in front of me with 2 of his friends.

"You lost?" He smirked.

"Who knew these woods were so confusing. Can you help me out?" I asked.

"Sure thing we were just heading back anyway. Leah this is Tim and Eric you'll see them around school when you start". Giving them a small wave I started to follow them back.

"What are you doing out here anyway?".

"Isn't it obvious?" I grinned motioning to my running gear. "I like to run, usually on a beach but seeing as I don't know where that is I opted for the forest".

"You shouldn't come out here on your own it's not safe". My belly did a flop as the words left his mouth. How was it not safe?

"Apparently there has been wolf sightings in these woods and I'm not talking about little small ones I'm talking about wild beasts". I couldn't help it I started to laugh. Wolfs? really? was he trying to scare me?

He didn't find it funny.
