The Wrong Alpha – A Twist Of Fate? Chapter 23
Well after my birthday my life had returned to normal, it had been a nice day with my family despite the incident with Logan. I had slept for a big portion of the day having been up most of the night waiting for my wolf to make her appearance.
But when we had woken later on we had gone into town for shopping, cakes and ice cream. Plus a trip to the movies. Just quality time with my mum and dad, time with the three of us was just what I needed.
Then it was straight back into work the following day, the updating the computer systems was not as straight forward as I’d expected, though I think that was more because Uncle wouldn’t buy decent computers.
But it kept me busy, I only had to work until mid afternoon meaning I could go out training or running which I loved now I had my wolf, or I could spend time with Indie. I did my upmost best to avoid my Uncle, and especially Logan and Anya.
Weeks soon passed into months…… amazing how time passes when you get into a dull and boring routine…. It was after one of my early finishes when I was heading up to the forest for a run that I bumped into Deyton. I had barely heard from him or seen him since soon after we had graduated. I knew through my Dad he and the other guys had completed their warrior training and were fully fledged warriors now for our pack. And despite us not being friends as such any more, I was proud of them, they deserved it.
As I was walking toward the forest he was walking back down toward the pack. I could see him glance in my direction and then quickly look away, like he didn’t want to interact with me. Nothing like being obvious……
“Hey Deyton” I say just to be difficult because to be honest it annoys me how him and his friends suddenly just cut me out of their lives when we had been pretty close before.
He looked really awkward and to be honest I swear he looked like he wanted to run away. d**k head.
“Hey del, you ok?” He muttered.
“Oh you can talk to me then?” I snap. Ok I’m being a b***h but he’s been a rude knob for the past few months when I needed him.
I expected him to walk away and to be honest I wouldn’t have blamed him, I was being a b***h. But he grabs my hand and pulls me into the trees.
What the f**k? I snatch my hand from his and glare at him.
“look Lilah please don’t be like that…” he whispers, looking at me guiltily, what’s up with him? “I didn’t want to cut you out but I had no choice…” he continued.
What? What was that meant to mean?!
“Cut me out? And how would you not have a choice? All of you just forgot about me Dey, initially I thought maybe you were busy with training but then I heard about you out partying etc and I realised no you were just the same as the rest of the pack and had decided I was no good” I look to him trying to hold back tears. He looks down to me, biting his l*p, guilt all over his face.
“No Del it really wasn’t like that. You’re my friend…” he whispered, he clearly doesn’t want anyone knowing he’s with me….
“Oh yeah that’s how you treat a friend” I sob. Dammit, so much for not crying. Deyton pulls me into his arms in a big hug.
“I’m really sorry Del I really am and I know the other guys are too. Please if I explain you can’t say anything….” He whispers in my ear, the warmth of his breath tickling my ear through my hair. I nod gently, I want to know….
“Everything I told you when we graduated was true hun, but when we were hanging out after it was pissing Logan off I think. When we were getting papers and stuff for warrior training he came to see us…” he paused.
I didn’t like the sound of this…. “He threatened us that we had to stop being friends with you, stop seeing you, no more calls, texts, trips out, nothing, or else he’d replace a way to stop us getting into or completing warrior training” he sighed.
What the actual f**k?! How could he do that to them?! They had always dreamt of that from being boys! Their dads were warriors! They’d trained from being young…
“I’m sorry Del…. We didn’t know what to do…. We have worked so hard to get to where we were, we were following our family tradition being warriors….” He growled, clearly frustrated at the injustice of it all.
“I know we were gutless hun, we should have fought harder for you… but we were scared of losing out on everything we’d worked for… he’s the next Alpha….I’m so sorry” he sighed.
I can’t be mad at him or the others, I can understand why they did what they did, this is Logan’s fault not theirs…
“It’s fine Dey, I understand, it’s Logan not you. And I’m glad you’ve told me now so I know that it isn’t because of all the other s**t that was happening.” I tell him.
“that was what I was thinking and that would have hurt more. At least this is a valid reason and you guys are all warriors now, you’ve all done amazing” I smile up at him.
“You are an angel hun, you should be angry….” He gently k****s the top of my head and squeezes me tighter in the embrace he has me in.
“I’m angry at Logan not you now, he cost me some good friends, but like I said you guys need to do what you need to do for you to be warriors and I get that. Least I know why now. Anyway, get yourself gone before someone sees you with me, I’m going for a run. Please tell the guys I know and I understand.” I move away from Deyton with a smile.
He reached out and brushes a stray tear off my face “ok hun. I do miss you too you know.” He smiles as he turns and walks away out of the forest.
I cannot believe all of that…. Why would Logan sink that low? Just to take away the few friends I have? Or is it because he didn’t like seeing me around other guys? He got jealous when Deyton had asked me out all them years ago…..
He’d got angry when his dad had mentioned my potential future mate….is that what it was all down too? Did he still see me as his despite the fact he had Anya at home waiting for him? I know he still loved me and wanted me he’d told me as much on my birthday….. thank goodness those feelings had gone from me now…
It’s hard to love someone who treats you the way he had….it’s hard to love someone when they cause this much pain….now the things I felt for him were confusion and anger….. I needed this run more than ever! Time to let Sky out I think….
