"I don't know what I felt". Truth be told I felt safe in his presence. I knew he wouldn't hurt me; my wolf knew.
"You can trustLeah".
"I don't know you". I wanted to trust him and deep within I knew I could, but he had to earn it. We may be blood but I still didn't know him.
"I would like to get to know you if that's okay".
"I have so many questions". I knew Jake was close I could feel him. My head cleared my body relaxed. "But I don't think this is the tor place for this to happen". I wanted to meet with him, but I wanted it to be in a place where I was comfortable. "I understand". He got to his feet.
"But I want to know you". My leg started to shake again, my heart beating faster than usual. I knew this was what I wanted. It could be the start of a relationship I never thought I would have.

He had already left by the tJake got here.
I was still a little overwhelmed. Did I just meet my dad? "Baby?".
My eyes landed on his as he placed his hand on top of mine. I may be overwhelmed but other than that I was fine. This was good for me. This is what I wanted.
"I met my dad".
"I know baby. Are you okay?".
"I-... Yes". I smiled.
Oddly enough it was like the weight had been lifted. I didn't have the burden on my shoulders anymore. I had nothing to fear nothing to worry about. I wanted to know more about him. "Thats good Leah".
"He gavehis number".
"Did he leave?". He asked.
"I told him it wasn't the right tto do this but I'm going to call him soon".
"I'm proud of you baby". He placed a kiss on my hand. "Are you ready to go home?".
"Yeah".
He wasn't happy that I was going out. He wasn't not talking to me, but his answers were blunt. He didn't think it was safe forto go out with everything that had happened with Jessica. I of course told him I was going out whether he liked it or not. He didn't need to worry about me. I could take care of myself.
"So, it's just you and Alanna?". He asked.
"And a few friends from school that we didn't get to say goodbye to". Ryan being one of them, but he already knew this. The green-eyed monster was out on force tonight. "You do know your underage".
"Really". My eyes narrowed. "Because that's never bothered you before". I may not be at the legal age to drink but I was sensible with it.
He shrugged.

"I can't keep you safe if you're out there now, can I?".
"I'm not a prisoner Jake and you don't need to keepsafe because there is no threat against me. Just admit that you're jealous and stop with the bullshit excuses". "Fine I'm jealous".
I didn't expect him to admit it. I thought he would have flipped his lid, said something nasty and then m walked out. The normal stuff. But this surprised me. "You know I love you and you have nothing to worry about". A sigh fell from his lips. "It's not you I'm worried about. It's everyone fucking else".
"I'm your mate, I wear your mark. I'm coming hto you.
You have m nothing to be jealous about". "Can't help it babe it's in my nature".
"The alpha male gene". I rolled my eyes. "I won't be late. I love you".
