The Alpha Chose Me

I wasn't as tired as I thought. My gran wasn't in when I woke, already set of for her garden club that she had failed to mention she had joined. A book club and a garden club. I now had no way of getting to school. Catching sight of Jake's hoody that was thrown over

my chair I smiled. I forgot to give him that back.

Slipping my feet into my sneakers I grabbed my bag and slung it over my shoulder. I could always text Alanna and see if I could car share with her. Unplugging my charger I made sure everything was switched off. Grabbing my cup I finished the rest of my coffee just as my phoned vibrated. 'Had a really good time last night princess. You needing a lift to school? noticed your gran leaving early'

Well that was my excuse out the window.

'No it's okay I'll find a way. Thanks though'

I couldn't bring myself to accept his offer. It was like half of me wanted to but the stubborn part didn't. Opening up a new message I sent it to Alanna.

'Hey do you mind giving me a lift to school?'

Giving myself a once over in the mirror I headed downstairs. I still had half hour before I needed to leave but Alanna hadn't texted me back yet and I was starting to worry. I didn't want to be late again and I wasn't sure if a bus stop was near or even went past the school.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Alanna messaged me back and it turns out she wasn't going in today. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on . Visit to read the complete chapters for free. I was screwed. I didn't want Jake taking me to school. After what happened last night I didn't need anymore unwanted attention. I mean what was it about Jake. Yes he was good looking but what did he hold over this town?

I was running out of time.

'Can you still give me a lift?'

..

He didn't message me back and I was already an hour late for my first class. I needed a car and fast. I couldn't depend on my gran anymore.

Why didn't I just accept his offer the first time?

I had phoned the school and told them I'd be in after lunch. That gave me enough time to get there by bus. I googled times and stops, I just had to walk 20 minutes down the road to the bus stop. I hope google was up to date.

It wasn't very warm outside but I was prepared with my hat, gloves and my coffee. Sticking my earphones in I pressed play and set off down the street.

I had sent my gran a message earlier asking if she would be able to pick me up when school finished but she had yet to reply. I did wonder why she was so busy nowadays. I mean we hadn't been here long enough for her to make friends. Something felt off.

I could hear it but I chose to ignore it. The car horn wouldn't stop but I already knew who it was. I wasn't interested. He could toot his horn all day if he wanted too. He wasn't taking me to school. Yes he did offer and I declined but in my head I could still be annoyed at him for ignoring my text.

Coming to a stop I pulled my earphone out and glared at him. "What do you want?".

"Get in". He sighed.

"No" I huffed.

"And how do you plan on getting to school?".

"Bus". I shrugged.

"Busses don't run in this part of town so please just let me take you to school".

"Jake". I sighed. "I'm new here and I'm trying to fit in. You seem like a big deal around here and you taking me to school is just going to throw unwanted shade at me".

"You're overthinking Leah. No one-..."

"Last night". I stated cutting him off. "The way those girls looked at me". I had never in my life had any issue with other girls but this town was different.
