The Alpha Chose Me

Switching off my alarm I sat up. I had already decided I wasn't going into school today. My hand was throbbing and I felt sick. Hearing my phone ping from under my pillow I remember last night.

I had sent him a message.

'What for princess?'

'Coffee??'

I could hear my gran coming up the stairs. I could only imagine what she was going to say when I told her I wasn't going in today. She didn't like me missing out on anything that could effect my education.

"Leah honey are you awake?". She asked knocking slighting on my door.

"Gran you don't need to knock". I sighed.

"I brought coffee". She grinned taking a seat on the edge of my bed. "You feeling any better?". Taking my coffee from her I inhaled deeply.

Fresh coffee in the morning was gold.

"My hands throbbing and I feel sick". I wasn't sure if she was going to believe me or not.

"Leah". She was giving me the look. The look of all looks that told me I better get my ass into gear and get moving.

"Can I please just take today off and I'll go back tomorrow?".

"I don't want you to miss any school work honey. It's bad enough you can't write anything down but at least if you're there you can listen". She sighed.

"Please gran". I begged. "What if I ask Alanna to pick up my work, then I'm not missing anything?".

"Okay fine but you're back tomorrow. I'll go phone the school and let them know. Get yourself ready and come down for breakfast".

Lifting my phone I sent Alanna a test. Hopefully she would be in school today but if she wasn't I could always ask Ryan.

'Hey could you pick up some work for me today? Not going in not really feeling it'
