The Alpha Chose Me novel Chapter 80

It wasn't like him to be this calm.

"Derek make sure she gets home safe". He nodded towards Alanna as we headed for the exit. I wasn't convinced that he wasn't going to say anything. I didn't believe that he wasn't mad.

As he unlocked the truck I got in clipping my seatbelt into place.

"Baby I'm not mad". He sighed as he started the engine.

"Okay". I frowned. I didn't disagree with him, well out loud I didn't disagree with him.

"You have a good night?". He asked pulling away from the bar and onto the road. It wasn't late but it was late enough for the roads to be quiet.

"How come they don't come around?". I had never seen any of them before.

"Later baby". He placed his hand on my thigh giving it a little squeeze.

Why was he being so nice?

"Is something wrong?". I asked.

A hearty laugh fell from his lips causing me to frown. Why was he laughing?.

"Just because I'm being nice doesn't mean something is wrong. I'm a nice guy Leah".

"I just-..it's..- I'm not saying you're not I just-...". I couldn't finish my sentence without sounding harsh.

"You expected me to go off on one because you went out?".

"Well yeah". I whispered.

"I was a little pissed". He smirked. "But not because you went out just because you didn't tell me".

"You didn't give me the chance. You were busy".

"I'm sorry about that princess".

"Anything I can help with?". I asked placing my hand on top of his. We were a team and he needed to realise that. I wasn't going anywhere.

"It's nothing for you to worry about. I just need you to be safe". He turned into our street driving straight past my house and parking outside his. There was a black truck I didn't recognise parked in the drive.

A girl bounced out of his house grinning from ear to ear. I didn't even have time to get my seatbelt off and she was pulling me out the truck.

"Look at you". She whistled.

"Rylee". Jake warned.

"Oh shut up I'm just admiring her". She held me at arms length looking me up and down. "You're beautiful gal".

"Thank you". I was confused as hell. I had no idea who this Rylee was.

"Leah meet my older sister Rylee".

"Older by a whole 2 minutes". She glared.

Wait a damn minute!

"Twins?". He was a twin and I was just finding out about it.

"I knew you wouldn't have told her about me". She led me up the front path, her hand still holding mine. My mind was blown. He had a twin sister and didn't think to tell me. "We're going to be great friends". She winked.

...

I couldn't sleep. Jake was beside me snoring his head off. Rylee was batshit crazy, lovely but crazy. It was late so it was quick introductions tonight but she wants to take me for drinks tomorrow. Wants to get to know me better.

Jake didn't get a say in the matter. Rolling over I slipped his arm getting out of bed as quietly as I could. Opening his bedroom door I snuck out making my way downstairs.

The kitchen light was on so I knew Rylee was awake. Probably heard her brothers snores through the wall.

"I don't know how you sleep next to him". She smiled as I made my way into the kitchen. It was almost 3am.

"I don't". I grinned. "I haven't moved in yet". Sitting across from her I noticed the drink she was nursing.

I had so many questions and no way to ask them. If they were twins how come they didn't share the Alpha title? Did she have a mate? Why hadn't anyone mentioned her before?

"And Jake is okay with that?".

"He'll just have to be". I shrugged. I would move in with him when we were mated and even then I might still wait a little longer. 

A laugh fell from her lips. "My brother has defo met his match. He treat you okay?".

"Like a princess". I scoffed.

"Scared you'll break". She laughed. "You'll get used to the overprotectiveness. He gets that from our dad".

"He treats me better than ever. I can deal with him being protective because I know he only wants to keep me safe. It's a little overbearing but I can handle it". I didn't want her to think I was mocking him because I wasn't.

Jake was good to me.

"You'll be good for him". She winked finishing whatever was in her glass.

"I hope so". I chewed my bottom lip. "I fear I'm not enough".

"How come?".

"I'm not a wolf".

"And what does that have to do with anything?". She got to her feet placing her glass in the sink. "Not all mates are wolfs. Jake needs you more than you will ever know".

"Yeah but what if he gets bored or someone better comes along?". I didn't know what it was but it was easy to talk to Rylee. She gave off a different vibe from the rest.

"You're joking right?".

"Just so we're clear I overthink everything". I ran a hand through my hair. "And I mean everything. I know I'm his mate and I know there can only ever be one true mate but sometimes my anxiety wins".

"A little bit of advice. Stop listening to your head and those anxiety ridden thoughts and just go with it. Jake isn't ever going to leave you. I'm surprised he hasn't already wifed you up". She smirked.

"We're not there just yet". I smiled.

"Full moon bullshit". She rolled her eyes. "I'm surprised he's managed it".

"Let's just say he's not the only one that's struggling". The creak from above told me he was awake. "I better get back to bed before he sends out a search party".

She smirked. "The moon goddess knew exactly what she was doing when she picked you".

"I hope you're right". I got to my feet just as he walked into the living room.

"Babe it's late". A yawn escaped his mouth as his eyes landed on Rylee.

"We were just having a nice little chat".

"Well you can chat tomorrow. Bed". His eyes landed back on mine. He wasn't asking.

"Goodnight Rylee".

..

"You okay?". He closed the bedroom door as I got back into bed.

"Yeah". I yawned.

"So you're going for drinks with Rylee tomorrow night?". He got back into bed his arm snaking over my waist.

"I really like her". I ignored his question placing my hand on his arm. "How come no one mentioned her?".

"Wasn't relevant. She doesn't stay here and I'm guessing she's only visiting because of the ceremony".

"The first time you cum will be on my tongue". He pulled me closer burying his head in my neck. My body shaking, every dirty little thought running through my mind. "The second time you'll be bouncing on my cock". His teeth grazed my neck followed by the roughness of his tongue. His words alone were enough to make me cum.

I could feel it. My back arched, I was so close.

"Don't you fucking dare". He growled. "That first one will be mine". He lifted me off him sitting me on the opposite side of the bed. A cry of frustration fell from my lips. I wanted him and I wanted him now. "It'll all be worth the wait". As he got up he headed straight towards the bathroom.

How was he managing this?

Thumping my hand off the bed I tried my hardest to calm myself, my body still on high alert, shaking with how close he had me.

Hearing the shower running I huffed. He could have taken me, tasted me, had his wicked way with me but no we have to wait until the bloody full moon. Getting off the bed I grabbed one of his hoodies pulling it over my head.

I was frustrated as hell, I needed an orgasm and he wasn't for giving me one. Heck I could have given myself one if he'd just let me.

Closing the bedroom door I made my way downstairs. I was so close, so fucking close and he didn't let me have it. I just needed a little one.

Rylee was sat at the table with a coffee. Her grin alone told me she knew exactly what had been going on upstairs. "Did you break him?". She asked.

"No". Going about the kitchen I made myself a coffee. I honestly didn't get how he could leave me like this. I could still feel it. One little touch was all it would take, it was that sensitive. I was still very much on the edge.

"Fuck that, buy a vibrator or just use the shower head". She smirked.

"I could literally cry". I groaned sitting across from her. I was sexually frustrated, every emotion I had was on. "He has no idea what he's doing to me. My orgasm was right there, it was right bloody there and he didn't let me have it".

"Boys got some will power. I didn't think he had it in him".

"Considering his past me either".

"Bit of a slag my brother". She sipped her coffee giving me the eye. "You've no idea the amount of times I had to throw girls out of here".

That's not what I wanted to hear but it was helping the way I was feeling. It was turning my arousal into rage. "Every weekend there was a new girl".

Was she doing this on purpose?

"Blonds, brunettes, redheads. He doesn't really have a type".

"Okay, okay, stop".

"Did it help?".

"I want to punch him in the throat". I sipped on my coffee, my arousal gone.

"At least it helped". She shrugged.

"Did he really have a different girl every weekend?". I knew of his past and I was okay with it. Everyone had one but it still stung a little at how many girls he had been with.

What if I wasn't the best at pleasing him?

"So how about we go out around seven tonight?".

I frowned. Why did she change the subject? She placed a finger to her lips just as Jake walked in. He was dressed in shorts and a T-shirt, wearing his black Nike sneakers.

"All good?". He kissed the top of my head.

"We're just talking about what time we're going out tonight". Rylee said.

"Hm". He filled up his water bottle. I was going out with his sisters surely he knew I would be safe.

"Where are you going?". I asked.

"For a run I won't be long. Get yourself dressed and I'll take you for lunch when I get back".

It amazed me at how he could straight up change his emotions like that. I knew I wasn't the only one struggling to deal with the itch.

"I'll look after her". Rylee winked.

"Don't be filling her head with rubbish Rylee. I'll see you soon". Another kiss was placed on my forehead before he left out the back door.
