The Alpha Chose Me

My heart was racing but a run was exactly what I needed. The fresh air in my face, the quietness, time to clear my head. Bending over I rested my hands on my knees. It sure was a lovely morning. I had been up with the birds even watched the sun rise.

Taking a sip of water I put my earphone back in and continued my run all the way home. Reaching my back gate my breathing was heavy but I felt good. I hadn't run in a while, it was something I needed to get back into.

Switching on the kettle I left the back door open letting the fresh air in. It was hot today. After drinking some water I fixed myself a coffee. Lana wasn't awake yet but it was still early. I did notice the shoes at the front door meaning Pete stayed over.

I hadn't heard from Jake since seeing him last night but that was a good thing. It meant he was giving me the space I asked for.

After showering and changing into fresh clothes I pulled my hair up into a messy bun. The heat was going to be a killer today. Putting my glasses on I grabbed my kindle and my now luke warm coffee and went back downstairs.

It was almost noon when Lana made an appearance. Pete was leaving out the back way. "You pissed him off?". He asked stopped by where I was sat.

"I don't think that's any of your business". I said. He hadn't spoken two words to me last night and now he thought he could involve himself in my business.

"Fucking is when's he's like a loose cannon. Sort your shit out. We don't need the hassle".

"Whatever". I glared at his back as he walked away. Why did they all feel the need to involve themselves with us?

"Hey girl". She yawned taking a seat next to me.

"Hey". Turning my kindle off I finished what was left of my coffee.

"Heard you come in last night. Party not good?".

"Something like that".

"You want to go to the beach today, soak up some sun, it'll just be like old times and we could go out later if you fancy it?".

"Yes, yes let's do that". We hadn't been out together in ages and right now I needed some time with the girls.

"I'll text Alanna and see if she wants to come".

"Maybe don't tell her about going out tonight just yet". She would grass me in to Jake and no doubt he would show up tonight.

"Okay". She frowned.
