My Hot Alpha
Chpater 146

"Where are you?".....

I didn't even get the chance to say hello.

"I'm getting coffee-.....

"You couldn't even send me a text to let me know?". He interrupted.

"Says the one that left without telling me". Rolling my eyes I glanced at my aunt Claire. I knew she was listening.

"Pack business princess-...".

"Yeah well my gran kicked us out and I got hungry".

"Kicked you out?". He asked.

"She's so stubborn". I sighed causing him to laugh.

"Baby you're the exact same. Let me know when you're home and I'll swing by and pick you up".

"Or I could just get dropped off at yours?". Wouldn't that make more sense. "Are you still with my uncle Zac?". As if on queue my aunt Claire's phone started to ring. "He's out with Carter. Both needed to let of some steam by the sounds of it".

"Did they argue?".

"It's none of my business babe which means it's none of yours. Let them deal with it".

"But I-...". "Leah"...

"Fine". I huffed. "I have to go my food is getting cold". Hanging up I grabbed my fork digging into my eggs. My aunt Claire had nipped out as soon as her phone went.

If Carter wanted to go home then he could I wasn't going to stop him. But if they were forcing him then surely something could be done?

Taking a sip of my coffee my eyes diverted to the door as it chimed. "Shorty". He grinned causing a laugh to fall from my lips. It soon stopped when I saw who he was with. Rocco!

Why was he with him?

"Where have you been?". Like always he stole food from my plate taking my aunt Claire's seat. "I've missed you". He pouted.

"Surely you've heard what happened?". The hairs on the back of my neck stood as Rocco approached the table.

"Beautiful". He winked nudging Ryan to move over.

"You've no chance". Ryan laughed. "But yeah I heard what happened. Mr Gallagher is an a*****e".

"Yeah". I could feel Rocco's stare but chose to ignore it. He obviously knew that I knew what he was. "I should be back soon though".

"Oi". Ryan elbowed Rocco in the side. "Her man will kick your ass if you keep looking at her like that".

A laugh fell from Rocco's lips. "I ain't scared". He smirked.

"You should be". Our eyes locked. I wasn't playing this game. He knew who Jake was, he knew that I was his mate.

"I'm up for the challenge beautiful"....

Challenge? There was no challenge. If Jake even got a whiff that he was sniffing around he'd kill him.

"Good luck with that". Ryan laughed. "I'm going to get a milkshake"....

"What are you doing?". I hissed as soon as Ryan was out of earshot.

"No idea what you're talking about. How's the hand?".

"You do know what I'm talking about and why are you with Ryan?".

"Listen princess-.....

"Don't call me that, don't you ever call me that". I snapped. He knew fine well what he was doing and I didn't like it.

"I'm not scared of your little Alpha". He smirked running a hand through his hair. "I like you beautiful and-...". He inhaled deeply. "You're fair game".

Wait what?

"Yo shorty you coming out on Friday?". Ryan slid in beside me wrapping his arm around my shoulders. "You not finishing that?". He took my plate before I could answer. I wanted to know where my aunt Claire was.

"Depends where it is and who's going". I glanced at Rocco before quickly looking away.

"Everyone". Ryan grinned. "Bring Alanna with you or don't".

"I'll see". I smiled.

"Leah we have to go". My aunt Claire frowned as she glanced between Ryan and Rocco. "Now, hurry up".

Weird.

Taking a drink of my coffee I grabbed my phone nudging Ryan so I could get out. "I'll text you later". "You better"...

As we reached the car my aunt Claire turned and looked at me. "Friends of yours?".

"What's going on?". I asked ignoring her question. I didn't even get to finish my coffee. "Uncle Zac and Carter had a bit of a disagreement".

"Is he forcing him go home?". If Carter didn't want to go then he shouldn't have to.

"It's his birth right Leah".

"Yeah well maybe he doesn't want it". I clipped my seatbelt in as she started the car. He was happy here, Alanna was here.

"Doesn't matter if he does or doesn't. The title is his and he has to claim it".

"I don't think that's true".

"Excuse me?". She was a little taken back by my reply. "Carter is no good here. He will struggle to take order from someone below his rank. In your pack he is nothing, he has no place". "He's family, my family. He's not nothing and there will always be a place for him". That annoyed me.

"I'm not discussing this with you when you don't know enough about it. Am I taking you to Jake's or dropping you off home?". "Jake's".

We didn't speak the rest of the car ride home.
