The Alpha Chose Me

I could hear voices or maybe I was dreaming. Slowly coming to I opened my eyes, I wasn't in my house. Sitting up I winced at the pain shooting through my head.

"Easy sweetheart, you hit your head pretty hard".

I was at Jakes moms.

Why was I here?

Then I remembered what I saw. The beast, the wild creature. I suddenly didn't feel so good. I felt like I was going to be sick.

"It's okay Leah". As she made her way towards me I jumped to my feet. "He's upstairs and he feels terrible. He didn't want you to find out this way, please don't go". She begged.

I couldn't wrap my head around what I saw. How was this possible? He turned into an animal, a wild beast, a wolf. A massive wolf.

"It's a lot to take in honey but do you understand now why he wanted to wait?".

"I- how?". Slowing sitting back down I rubbed a hand over my face. "I need to go home". I whispered. I couldn't take any of this in. It wasn't humanly possible for him to be able to do that.

"Please Leah". She begged.

"Is Jake the only one that can do that?". I asked. This was obviously the secret he was hiding or maybe the secret they all were hiding.

Maybe they're all wolfs?

"No sweetheart he's not. We run as a pack, our pack is based here in Texas".

Wow, wow and wow.

"Let me get you some tea".

"A pack?". I asked.

"Could say it's like an extended family. We have over 200 members and counting. Our pack is one of the largest around".

"How is this possible". I whispered mostly to myself. This couldn't be real.

"Here". Passing me the tea I gladly took it. "I added a little sugar in there". She smiled before taking a seat across from me.

"So you're all werewolf's?". My body was shaking. Whether it was from the adrenaline or fear I wasn't sure.

"My family and I are. My husband is Alpha of our pack, he is our leader. I don't want to tell you to much Leah because I'm sure Jake will want to share it with you".

I wasn't sure I could face Jake right now. I wasn't sure I wanted to be here anymore. Sitting my cup down my shaking hand didn't go unnoticed.

"You don't have to be afraid of us Leah".

"I-I have to go home, I'm sorry".

I was in a daze, I couldn't think straight after what I had witnessed. The sound of a car horn knocked me, jumping in fear I ran all the way home and didn't stop until I was in front of my house.

Catching my eyes were the balloons. A new black Mercedes sport was parked in my driveway, pink balloons on each wing mirror.

"Finally you're home, you left pretty early sweetheart". My gran burst out the front door smiling from ear to ear. "Do you love it?".

"I do". I smiled. The car was beautiful and new and far to expensive for my gran to buy. "Can we afford this?". I asked. My reflection caught my attention, I was chalk white.
