The Alpha Chose Me (Leah and Jake)

Chapter 74



Chapter 74

"I'm leaving her to it". I said holding up my hands. I wasn't getting in the middle of that. She was having fun, who was I to stop her. "You're right". She laughed.

"I'm just going to get a little air". We had been here for almost an hour and he wasn't back yet. How much time did Jack need to calm down? Shaking my head I pulled open the patio door and went outside. I shouldn't have thought that it wasn't nice. Jack was his best friend and he obviously needed him.

Taking a seat on one of the wicker chairs I looked out in the forest. The moon was shining, the sky dark, the storm calmed. The night air was cool, the breeze chilling my face. It was nice out here. I liked the quiet, the peacefulness. His back garden always amazed me. The open space, the open forest. It all made sense now.

"Shouldn't you be enjoy the party?". Snapping my head up I felt the heat rise to my cheeks.

Jack!

And Jack was stark naked.

I didn't know where to look.

"Could you maybe pass me my clothes". He nodded towards the other chair. I hadn't noticed his clothes were there when I came out.

"I'll just go back inside. Sorry". I couldn't look at him. I knew my face was beetroot red, I could feel how hot it was becoming. Not giving him the chance to reply I wandered back inside.

I needed a cold drink of some sort.

Heading through the open space I grabbed the bottle of shots from the counter. I couldn't believe he was naked and I saw him naked. I knew Jake wouldn't like that.

Why was he naked?

And where was Jake?

Finding a glass I poured myself some of the red liquid. Bringing it to my nose I inhaled the cherry essence before downing it in one. Just as I was about to pour another one the hairs on the back of my neck stood, I could feel the goosebumps appearing on my arms.

He was here.

Pouring the liquid into the glass I through it back my eyes closing on there own. Do I tell him I saw Jack naked. Surely it wasn't normal to be running around naked at night. Especially with a house full of people. Anyone could have saw him.

"Deep in thought princess?".

"Huh-.. what no". My eyes greedily took him in, tracing every part of his body. Finally landing on his eyes I didn't miss the smirk he was wearing.

I liked looking at him sue me.

Chewing the inside of my cheek I blinked a few times before I grinned. I didn't care that he caught me looking. He was beautiful not just sexy or hot he was breathtakingly a beautiful man. "You drunk?".

"No are you drunk?". As he made his way towards me my breathing quickened. Grabbing the bottle of shots he screwed the lid back on and placed it in the cupboard. "I was drinking that". I frowned. "Last time you were drunk I ended up with a sore face". He scowled.

"And I ended up with a broken hand". I shrugged. "I'm not drunk Jake I've had 2 shots".

"2 shots to many". Opening the fridge he grabbed two beers passing one to me.

"I like shots". Taking the beer from him I dropped my gaze to the floor.

"I just don't want you to get too drunk babe. Don't want a repeat of last time". He grinned taking a sip of his beer.

"If I remember correctly you deserved it". Drinking the neck of my beer I avoided his stare.

"I did". He agreed. "But that won't happen again. I can promise you that".

"Okay".

"Okay?".

"Yes okay". I smiled.

"You wanna get out of here?". He asked.

"And leave one of Jake Taylor's parties?". I gasped. "We can't do...". A giggle fell from my lips as he grabbed me around the waist pulling me to him. "You're funny". He growled his breath fanning across my face. I couldn't hide my smile. The more we hung out together the more I think I was falling for him.

"Glad you think so". I winked resting my hands on the lower of his back. "But I can't leave Lana".

"Pretty sure Pete's taking care of her. She'll be fine Alanna's here remember".

"I came here with her I can't just leave. I actually came over here to hang with Alanna not you".

"Is that so?". He smirked his grip tightening. "Pretty sure you stayed for me though right?".

"Maybe". I whispered. I couldn't seem to stay away from. No matter where I was it would always end with us together.

"I can't seem to stay away from you". Brushing his nose against mine my heartbeat quickened. I didn't want him to stay away. I still couldn't describe how he made me feel. He didn't need to touch me, just being in the same room was enough.

He made everything better.

"Then don't". My voice was soft, delicate. I wanted to be with him. I wanted to see what we could become.

"Babe". He sighed.

"I don't mean sex Jake". Rolling my eyes I let my hands fall to my side. I knew he thought I wasn't ready and that was okay. He only wanted to make sure I wanted this, wanted him. When he didn't respond I continued. "Let's just hang out, take it slow and see what happens?". I suggested.

"Sounds like a plan babe". Bringing his hand up he cupped my cheek. "You really have no idea how glad I am to have found you".

"I think I do". I smirked.

"No really babe. I didn't think I ever would". He was serious, my smirk dropped as he pulled back slightly.

"But you did find me". With my good hand I grabbed his lacing our fingers together. "I've never felt like this before Jake. The way my body reacts to you, how settled I feel when I'm around you, around your family. I felt it as soon as I saw you. I didn't believe it, didn't understand what it was but now I'm starting to".

"Yeah?". He whispered.

Smiling I nodded my head. What was the point in trying to hide my feelings. "But don't go all wolfy on me just yet". I laughed.

"We take it as slow as you want princess". Closing the gap between us he placed his lips against mine. Fireworks.....

I was seeing stars!

Wrapping me up in his arms I sighed when he pulled back. This was it, I was 100% in this with him.

"It's you and me babe". He whispered brushing his nose against mine.
