Chapter 327
He wasn't away 5 minutes and Alanna was here. She had already opened a bottle of Champaine and was shouting out baby boy names. Apparently, I was carrying a boy.
"Could always call him Jake".
"Could be a girl". I finished off my makeup by adding a blush pink lip.
"I'm team boy". She winked. "What about Jacob?".
"Enough with the baby names". I sighed. "And zip me up please". I opted for a black dress that stopped just above my knee.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
"You're not still wearing crocs, are you?".
"Yes, I am". I grinned.
"Of course, you are". She zipped me up and then went back to sitting on my bed. "Did you tell Jake?".
"Tell him what?".
"Stop playing you know what".
"He knows that you know".
"And?".
"He's fine with it. He told the guys last night. Oh, and when I came home, he was drunk".
"Drunk?". She frowned. "Jake doesn't get drunk".
"I know".
"Did you ask why?".
"He said he wanted to have a few drinks". I shrugged. "If he's got something to tell me then he'll tell me when he's ready".
"Could be to do with Jessica and her family wanting to move back".
I made a face. "What?".
How did I not know about this? And then the pack meeting yesterday was starting to make sense. I didn't need to go because they were discussing whether to bring her back or not. "Shit".
I swallowed the lump that appeared in my throat. I couldn't believe he would do this to me. To even consider bringing her back in the first place and then not tell me about it.
I felt betrayed. My insides churned at the thought of her being part of this pack again.
"I'm so dead". She groaned.
"He's not bringing her back, is he?".
"I don't know Leah".
She was a good liar, so I wasn't sure if she was telling me the truth right now. Visit to read the complete chapters for free. Just when I thought everything was good something like this happens. But I wanted to know why. Why bring her and her family back? What was the reason behind it?
"I have to finish getting ready. I'll meet you at the school". I felt deflated. My chest felt heavy, and I felt sick to my stomach. I wanted to be angry, but I wasn't. If anything, I was hurt.
"My mom's booked a limo so we can all go together".
"I'll come over once I'm ready". I smiled. "Leah-...".
"Please, just go". I needed to be alone right now. I didn't want her to see me cry. Under normal circumstances I would be furious, but I couldn't control it these days. I turned away from her as I felt the tear slide down my cheek. "Okay". She whispered.
