Chpater 294 She hated morning patrol, but something was tellingthere was more to it. Not seeing Carter is one reason but it was more than that. She sucked it up and got on with it but not this time.
"Do you wantto ask him to change it?".
"I don't mind it and yes, I moan about it, but I still do it. I just hate that I'm barely going to see Carter over the next week".
"I'm sure you'll live". I grinned.
"Easy for you to say miss I don't have to do patrols because I'm the Alpha's mate".
"Touchy". But she did have a point. Never once had he madedo one even after saying we would do it together, he's yet to takeout. "But if you want, I'll do it tomorrow with you". "You'll get up at five to cpatrol?".
"Five?". I frowned. "That's still the middle of the night".
A laugh fell from her lips. "Have to be out there for 6 and he always knows if you're late. I swear nothing gets by him".

"Do you wantto ask him to change it?". I asked again.
She shook her head. "Just ignore me. My periods due and my mood swings are terrible. And I'm sorry for before. Even if you were pregnant, it's none of my business".
"Thanks, but I'm not".
Seeing as Carter was sleeping, I invited Alanna over to hangout, but she declined. Something to do with going for a nap before she starts packing.
They didn't have a date for leaving but she said it would be after graduation. That was next week. I wasn't sure how ready I was for them to leave. Carter was the only family I had left, and Alanna was one of my best friends. She was the first friend I made here. Pulling into the driveway I turned off my engine and just sat there. The front door to my house opened and I smiled. He was coming to check on me. I took off my seatbelt and got out. "You, okay?". He asked.
"Yeah". I smiled. "Are you?".
"Always baby". He took my bags fromas we walked up the path. "Have you heard from Lana?".
I kicked my shoes off and hung up my jacket. "Not yet but I don't know if she's hyet". I headed into the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of water.
"You look tired Leah".
"I am". I sat on the couch making myself comfortable.
"Go for a nap. I'll wake you when Lana appears".
"Do you think I should call her?".
"I think you should go for a nap". He grabbed the blanket from behind the sofa and draped it over and around my shoulders. "I'll make you stea but please try and get srest".
I was tired but not tired enough to fall asleep. It felt as though that's all I did. Sleep and eat. I was bored. Bored of always doing the sthing. I wanted to be productive, active and not just stay at hall the time.
I wanted to do something with my life.
A job or college.
"Here".
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I want to go to college". I took the mug of tea from him as he sat down beside me. "Or get a job or both". I could do college through the day and work at night.
"I thought you wanted to do courses online?".
"I thought I did but now I want to go".
m I took a sip of my tea. Tcan't stay cooped up in the house all day". "You want to leave?". He asked.
"Leave?". I frowned. "Why would I want to leave?".
"Yale is the only school you want to go to so yeah do you want to leave?".
A sigh fell from my lips. Yale would always be my dream school but that's all it was and all it will ever be. al it It was too far away, and I know I wouldn't be able to cope without seeing him every day. "I mean college here but I'm not sure if applications are still being accepted".
"You have left it a bit late Leah, but you could alway one them and find out for definite". "I'll call them tomorrow". A yawn fell from my lips. "I think I'll take that nap now".
