it was him?”
I smiled, “Your senses. Everyone has a personal scent, like a perfume that they always wear. Even though you may not recognize it, your Wolf does and identified that it was Matt. Come on, let’s go see if you're right.” I grabbed her hand and pulled her toward the door with me.
When I pulled open the door, it was in fact Matt. He stood there looking ticked off. His scent reeked of shock from seeing me but was quickly taken over by anger as his eyes shifted between Allie, me, and our linked hands. He scoffed and looked straight at Allie, “Him? Really? This is the reason you’ve been blowing off my calls and not going to school for the past two days. Unbelievable Allie, truly.”
I wanted to shove my fist in his face, he had no idea what was going on with Allie. She stood close by my side, jaw opened in shock. But once the shock was gone, all that was left was anger. I guess Golden Boy wasn’t so golden now.
“You need to leave. Now,” I said before Allie’s temper got too out of control. The past two days, her emotions have been all over the place. She even threw a pot at my head at one point. I could tell that she was hurt and angry by Matt’s assumption which didn’t make a good combination. She didn’t have her emotions under control yet and she could lose it in front of Matt, which she would hate.
“Gladly,” he didn’t give Allie another glance and stormed off to his car. Allie flinched when his car door slammed. I closed the door softly, and turned toward Allie. She didn’t speak, just turned and walked toward the kitchen.
Cabinets banged together as she tried to look for something. I slowly approached her from behind and wrapped my arms around her waist, taking away some of her anger. The electric current rippled through me again, but this time I welcomed the feeling. She sagged against me and I put my chin on the top of her head.
“Don’t worry, I got this. Go sit.” Her head nodded under me and I pressed my lips to her hair. She untangled herself from my arms and sat at the small table. I added chocolate chips to the remaining batter and continued to make more pancakes. Since I always needed to eat so much, I learned how to cook a long time ago. When I was done there were two plates stacked tall with pancakes, chocolate syrup, strawberries and whipped cream.
Chapter Fifteen
Pair Problems
Allie
These pancakes were really good, but they still couldn’t take my mind off of what Matt said. Caleb and Brody decided it would be best if I didn’t go to school while my emotions were still not under control, and I didn’t even think to tell Matt about it. I had a fair point not to tell him, the last time we talked, he told me he was in love with me and kissed me. Also, he would wonder why I wasn’t at school and I couldn’t tell him. Could I?
It sucked, all of this. I didn’t want to be some weird Wolf person. I just wanted to be Allie. I think Caleb knew that, but he didn’t say anything. He’s been really supportive through everything, answering all my questions and comforting me. Intact, he was really good about comforting me. I guess it made sense since I was his pair. As much as I wanted to deny it, I was starting to feel the pull to him too.
Caleb sat across from me, scarfing down chocolate chip pancakes. His hair was disheveled from sleeping on the couch. I kinda felt bad for making him sleep on the couch, but he refused to go home and I’m Brody would kill him if he found him sleeping in my bed. Alpha or not. I guess I could see Caleb as a alpha, but definitely not me. The “pack hierarchy” was the one of the first things that Caleb and Brody explained to me after they told me. Two alphas: one female, one male, they must be a pair, and they run the pack. Then, there were two betas, Brody and Sierra, who were the alpha’s right hand man/female. And then, there were the rest.
Yet, I still couldn’t accept the concept that I was an alpha and I had a pack to look after, or that Sierra of all people would be my partner.
