Chpater 137 I couldn't sleep yet again. The movement in the house, the voices, I just couldn't settle. He would be back soon. My body wanted sleep, my eyes sore. Today wasn't going to be a good day for me.
I was aware the rest of the house heard what happened with Jessica. Alanna texted shortly after it happened. I didn't feel bad because she had it coming and it was about tI stood my ground and stuck up for myself. The girls in this pack needed to realise I wasn't going anywhere. Respect was given when it was earned. It worked both ways and I had been nothing but respectful even when they didn't deserve it.
I wasn't going to be treated like an outside anymore. This was going to be my hand they were going to becmy family. Hearing the knock at the door Charlotte popped her head in.
I loved how comforting she was and how comfortable I felt around her.
"Brought you scoffee sweetie. I'm guessing you didn't get much sleep". She walked further into the room as I sat up.
"Haven't slept at all". Taking the mug from her she sat on the end of the bed.
"He'll be hsoon". She smiled. "I heard what happened with Jessica".
I already knew that. "I'm guessing everyone else did as well?". Another thing I already knew.
"You stood your ground Leah and you've no idea how long I've been waiting for you to snap. She had it coming so do not feel guilty about it".
"Oh I don't". Taking a sip of my coffee I watched her smile grow. "Although I have no idea where it cfrom. The power I felt, I liked it".
A laugh fell from her lips. "Jessica's wolf picked up on your place, she knows you're her Luna and it's doesn't matter that you are human. The moon goddess picked you sweetheart. Once you mate you'll becstronger. Not as strong as Jake but not far off". What? "Even though you will never beca wolf, you will still get all the traits that cwith. Your kids will turn, they will becwolfs".

"You would think that but no sweetheart. Jake is a purebred Alpha, your kids will be full wolf".
"But how?". I frowned.
"It only happens with Alpha's. Jake is powerful sweetheart, his wolf is deadly. Your offspring will get the gene, he or she will becthe next Alpha".
I didn't know what to say. Alana had tolda little but not this much. "So they will have nothing from me". I muttered more to myself.
"Oh sweetheart that's not what I mean. Of course they will have traits from you. Please don't think they won't". How did we even get onto the subject of kids? I wanted them of course but I was nowhere near ready for them. "Is it weird I still find all of this strange?".
"It would be weird if you didn't". She grinned. "I'm so glad you're his mate Leah. I worried for a long tthat he would never find you".
"I can't lie to you Charlotte but there was a part ofthat didn't want this".
"Oh". She frowned. "Do you still feel this way?".
Smiling I shook my head. "Jake can be a little overbearing at times but I know I couldn't be without him. It's only been a short period of tbut I don't know, I can't explain how I feel".
"You hadworried there". She grinned. "I want you as my daughter-in-law Leah. You are the best thing to have happened to him".
I hope she was right. I wasn't sure if Jake and I would ever see eye to eye. He wantedto know that he was the boss, I wasn't one for lying down, letting people tellwhat to do wasn't my strong point.
"You have nothing to worry about". Taking another sip of my coffee my phone vibrated. His ears must have been burning.
"Cdown stairs and get sbreakfast. I noticed you didn't eat anything this morning. The pack are at the training ground". She was tellingthe house was empty.
"Is Alanna still here?".
"She's resting. It was a long night for her". She got up from the bed. "Cdown, I'll start breakfast".
Checking the message from Jake I rolled my eyes. He sure had a way with words at times.
'You better be in my bed or at least my house! If not your ass will be sore when I get home' If I didn't reply he would think I was still sleeping. Pushing the covers off I stretched out my arms a yawn escaping my mouth.
I was dead beat and just realised I still had to go shopping with my gran later today. We hadn't really spent that much ttogether recently so I wasn't cancelling it.
After washing my face and doing my business I slipped my feet into my slippers. I loved how it smelled of him everywhere in here. Heading downstairs I smiled at Charlotte, she was at the stove doing what she always did. Cook! "Do you want a fresh cup honey?".
"Yes please". His house was cozy, it was getting to the tof the year where you could see the frost on the trees. "I love his house, the view is amazing".
"It'll be your house soon too". She placed the cup in front of me. "Have you heard from him?".
"He texted me, said I better be here".
"Oh too be young again". She smirked. "You remindof myself in my younger days. I wasn't keen on Jacob at the start either".
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"You weren't?".
"Oh that man". She laughed. "Tried everything in his power to getto submit. Let's just say wear the O trousers in our marriage". She winked causingto laugh. Now I know where Jake gets it from. "But it's worth it sweetheart. Trustwhen I say pissing him off isn't always a bad thing".
I could feel the heat spread across my cheeks. I knew exactly what she meant. Angry Jake was hot.
"I think I love him dy". No one makesfeel the way he does.
"Tooktwo weeks and no matter how many times I tried to convince myself I wasn't it didn't stop my feelings growing. We mated and 2 months later I found out I was pregnant with Jake". She smiled.
"2 months?". My mouth went dry. I didn't want to get pregnant straight away. I still had to finish high school, still had to figure out what I wanted to do with my life. I didn't want to be a stay at hmom. It wasn't a bad thing but I wanted more.
"Hook, line and sinker". She laughed. "But I wouldn't change it for the world. I love my husband and my children".
It sounded like she had the perfect love story and I didn't doubt the love she had for her family.
"I'm not ready for a baby". I whispered.
"I didn't think I was either".
"I want to finish school". I don't think she was getting what I meant.
"I didn't finish school but I have a masters degree in social science and fine arts. You don't need to finish school to get a degree honey". Wow! "Now eat I can hear your stomach from here". She placed a breakfast sandwich in front of me.
