The Alpha Chose Me

I met Joe. Joe ran the gas station almost all the time. He was an elder, lost his wife to a rogue wolf and had a daughter. Joe was sweet and he welcomed me with open arms.

"How'd you break your hand lass?". He asked.

"Funny story". I grinned. I felt extremely relaxed around him. He was the first one that didn't make me feel like an outsider.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

We were currently sat behind the cash register drinking coffee. He had yet to teach me anything but I was okay with that. "Go on".

"Punched Jake in the face".

He burst into a fit of laughter. "A Luna that can handle herself. Tell me lass, how have you been settling in around here?". Where did I start?

"They hate me". I sighed. "But I'm handling it".

"I see".

"It's hard sometimes and then I start to think I'm not good enough and that he deserves better".

"The moon goddess is never wrong when picking mates especially an Alphas. Give them time they'll all come around sooner or later and if they don't you pull rank". He laughed. "Maybe that's just what I'll do". I grinned.

"You're strong lass I felt it the minute you walked in here. You'll be one hell of a Luna and leader. Don't let them get to you".

Why couldn't they all be like Joe?

"Thanks Joe".

"So how has young Jake been treating you?".

"We're going to need more coffee for this". I joked.

He grinned before shaking his head. "The moon goddess sure got it right with you. Give him hell lass and make sure he treats you right". As a tanker pulled into the forecourt he got to his feet. "I need to go deal with this delivery now don't be a stranger". He smiled. "You'll never get rid of me". I laughed. "See you soon Joe". He was the sweetest.

"Made a new friend?". Alanna grinned.

"He's the sweetest". I groaned. "Where did you go?". I asked.

"Checking stock, seeing what we need to order. You ready to go it's almost 7".

"Yeah"...

....

Alanna had dropped me off at my house so I could pick up my bag. I told her not to wait, I could tell she was eager to see Carter. Locking my front door I made my way across the street.

I'll still never get over the size of his house. Second biggest on the street, his parents being the first. One day and probably one day soon that house will be mine to.

Crossing the street I jumped as the howl broke through the night. It didn't scare me anymore but it did catch me off guard every now and then. Walking up his driveway I opened the door and dumped my overnight bag on the stairs.

I could hear the music playing, smell the scented candles he had burning.

What was he up to?

"You going to stand in the hall all night?". He asked.

Rolling my eyes I walked through the living room and into the kitchen. He was leaning against the counter top a beer in one hand his phone in the other.

"You good?". He asked sliding his phone into the front pocket of his jeans.

I was so tempted to throw in a Jessica comment but thought against it. We didn't need another thing to argue about and besides I didn't know if she was telling the truth or not.

"Always".

"Come here". Taking a step towards me he pulled me against his chest resting his hands just above my bum. Inhaling deeply a throaty growl escaped his mouth before he buried his head in the crook of my neck.

The grazing of his teeth caused me to gasp, goosebumps appearing on my skin. Feeling the wetness of his tongue I pulled my bottom lip between my teeth.

Holy f**k!

"I'm going to mark you right here". He whispered. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on . Visit to read the complete chapters for free. "Everyone will know that you are mine". I felt the pressure of his teeth before he pulled back. Brushing his nose against mine he smiled. Not a smirk or a grin but an actual smile. "You hungry?".

I couldn't find my voice so I gave him a nod. He had once again lit the fire inside me, turned me on and done nothing about it.

I hated when he done that.

"Dirty fries and burgers". He winked causing me to laugh. It sure beats that pasta. Taking a seat at the table I watched as he moved around the kitchen. "Even got you a strawberry milkshake".

This is the date I wanted. Not some fancy restaurant with a menu I couldn't understand. "What time do you leave tomorrow?". I asked.

"Let's not talk about that just now Leah. I want to spend the night just us, shut the outside world out for a few hours". Placing the plate in front of me he gave me a fork. "Eat".

Yes sir! It took all my strength not to roll my eyes but on the other hand he was trying and I wasn't giving him enough credit for it.

"Thank you". Eating a few fries I forgot how good they were. "Did you get these from that little beach shack?". I asked.
