Chapter 111
“What's going on Leah. Are you hurt? Did something happen". I could hear the panic in his voice.
“Can you come get me please?”. My voice was barely a whispered. I couldn't seem to control how I was feeling.
“I'll be there as soon as I can. Pack a bag”...
The line went dead before I could reply. Connecting my phone to my speaker I put on a random playlist. I wasn't planning on staying here tonight.
Grabbing a few essentials I started to pack an overnight bag. Jake and I may not be on the best of terms but he was there for me when I needed him and right now I've never needed him more.
I couldn't believe how quickly she had changed. I had never in my life disrespected or disappointed my gran but her choice of words were upsetting.
We both said things we shouldn't have. I had a right to be upset with the lies she had kept from me. Carter was my family as well.
I was going to become part of a werewolf family. I was an Alphas mate and when the time came my children would be werewolf's.
Sitting my now packed bag by the patio doors I climbed onto my bed. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on FindNovel.net.

I didn't understand why she was being so mean. Telling me to move out if I wanted. That wasn't my gran.
I still had a curfew for petes sake.
Something was wrong. I could feel it in my bones. She had always been my only intimate family and now it felt like she wanted nothing to do with me. Hearing my phone ping I jumped from my bed hoping it was Jake.
Tm outside. Come to my moms until he's home. He'll be at least a few hours. I hope you're okay. AX'
I didn't think twice. Rummaging through my closet I pulled out a pair of sneakers and pulled Jake's hoodie over my head. This was the last place I wanted to be right now. Lifting my bag I opened my bedroom door slowly trying to make as little noise as possible.
I knew George would be able to hear me. Reaching the bottom of the stairs I glanced into the living room through the glass door. The TV was on, I could hear them both laughing.
Opening the front door I sunk my teeth into my bottom lip, I didn’t want to cry, I didn't want to be upset by this. Walking up the drive I wiped the tears from my cheeks.
jake would let me stay for a few days. Maybe time apart was exactly what we needed.
“Come on". Alanna whispered taking my bag before slipping her arm through mine. “It'l be okay”.
“I don't know what's going on Alanna. She's never been like this before. I'm not sure I can go back”. I wasn't sure she even wanted me to stay there anymore.
“You can always stay with me or better yet stay with Jake. A few days won't hurt and it'll give you sometime apart”
“Did he ask you to come get me?" I asked as we made our way up the driveway. Her parents house was the biggest in the street, it stood alone.
“He did, he wanted to make sure you were safe”. She squeezed my arm. “He really cares about you Leah and I'm not just saying that because he's my brother”.
“I know he does”. As she open the front door Charlotte was waiting for us.
“Come here sweetheart”. Pulling me into her arms she held me tight. “It's none of my business Leah but always know you have a home here with us. I just want to make sure you're okay".
“Thank you". I whispered.
“I can't be bothered cooking so are you girls okay with takeout?”. She lead us through the house and into the kitchen. “Leah make yourself comfortable honey. I have a few things I need to do before Jacob gets home”.
This house was a lot like Jake's. All open plan and spacious.
“Thanks mom", Alanna smiled. “You want something to drink?".
“Please”. I smiled walking into living room and taking a seat on the couch. The last few days had been tough. First with Jake and now my gran. Was I ever going to catch a break?
“Here”. Handing me the glass she took a seat at the other side. “You doing okay?".
“It's been a weird few days”. I shrugged. “I can't believe she mentioned moving out. I've never even thought about it". “Maybe she wants to move George in?".
“Doesn't make sense though. This was suppose to be a fresh start for the both of us and now I feel like she's trying to push me out. I don't know maybes she's just having a bad day”.
“What did she say to you?” She asked.
“That I wasn't to disrespect her like I did and that living in her house meant living by her rules which I have always done. She told me that if I wanted to move out then I've to do it and do what the hell I want. She's never said any of that”.
“Give her a few days and then see what happens. You could be right she's maybe just having a bad day".
“I hope you're right” I sighed.
it was nearing midnight, we were cooped up in the living room with snacks and rubbish horror films. Alanna was good for keeping my mind occupied.
jake still wasn't home. I hadn't heard from him since we last spoke on the phone but I wasn't worried. I knew he be here as soon as he could.
“Ym just going to put this out there and say we're ditching school tomorrow?”. She grinned.
I wasn't even thinking about school right now.
“What the point I'm failing chemistry anyway". I still was nowhere near understanding it.
“I told you Jake will tutor you, all you have to do is ask”
“He seems busy and I'm sure he's got much better things to do than tutor me”. My phone vibrated off the arm of the couch. “That'll be him". She smirked.
30 mins away babe! Il pick you up from my moms. I hope you're still awake’
“He'll be here soon”. I smiled. “Looks like I'm staying with him". I wasn't nervous about it. I was the one that asked him to come home. He always made every situation better. Being around him was comforting and that's what I needed right now. “That was always the plan”. She winked.
“Well I did ask him to come home. Will he get in trouble for leaving?” I asked.
“He's soon to be Alpha, he can do what he wants”. Turning her attention back to the tv I snuggled deeper into the couch.
