Chpater 399 I was snacking on a bag of chips when there was a knock on my front door. Jake wasn't back yet; he was still out planning for where he was takingtonight. Not that he has to plan anything. I would have been happy with tacos and beer. Another Getting up from where I was sitting, I went to answer it.
knock.
"Did you tell Jake I skipped out on patrol?". Alanna pushed her way inside. "You know how much I hate it and now, now he's goton it the full week". "Cright in". I sighed.
"Why did you have to tell him?". She asked.
"I didn't tell him anything".
"Yeah, right". She huffed. "Why would he puton the full week if-...". She paused. "Rocco".
I rolled my eyes. Rocco wasn't a snitch. He minded his business and did what he was told. His focus was keeping his family safe not grassing Alanna into Jake. "If it wasn't you then it had to be him". She spoke. "And now I have to do 6 more nights".

"It's not a big deal". She sighed.
"What if something happens and you're not there?".
"I don't need the lecture Leah just tell my brother I'm not doing 6 nights patrol. I don't care what the punishment is. He can find sother idiot to do it". "What's going on with you?". I asked.
"Nothing okay, I'm fine stop trying to fix everything all the time. I have to go but just tell him not to expectout tonight".
The door slammed shut behind her. Okay then, she was dealing with stuff she didn't want to share and that was okay. Was she right though? Did I always try and fix everything? Was I the fixer of the group? F**k no.
I made a face and took my spot back on the couch so I could finish my chips. If she didn't want to tellwhat was bothering her then I wasn't going to waste my ttrying to get it out of her.
It wasn't my business. She'll cout her mood the way she went into it. Maybe it had something to do with Carter? Grabbing my phone, I dialed his number and put it to my ear. "Bear". He answered. "All good?".
"Are you busy?". I asked. "And what's all that noise?".
"I'm at the training ground with the new wolfs. Do you needfor something?".
"Is Jake with you?". And then I heard him, the growl that tore from his mouth made the hairs on the back of my neck stand. "Carter what's going on?".
"We're just training them Leah. It's all good down here and don't worry I'll make sure he's back on tfor your date".
My cheeks flushed something that hadn't happened in a while. How did he know about our date? "Shut up". I grinned.
"So, you all good or do you need something?". He asked.
"Are you busy tomorrow?".
"Depends on what you want". He laughed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"To meet for lunch, go for coffee, we haven't hung out in ages". I also needed to tell him about gran. I wasn't even sure if they were still in contact. He never mentions anything about her to me. "Anything for you bear. I'll pick you up around 12 and we can make a day of it".
"One more thing before you go". I probably shouldn't mention Alanna, but I was going to. "Is Alanna, okay?". "I take it you've felt her wrath today as well?". He asked.
"Something like that. Are you guys', okay?".
"Couples fight, they have arguments. We'll be fine we always are. You know what she's like at times". He sighed. "But I have to go I'll see you tomorrow".
Rushingoff the phone was so he didn't need to talk about it, but I wasn't going to push. I wouldn't want to try and fix everything right?
It was almost 7 and Jake still wasn't home. I tried calling but his phone was going straight to voicemail. He'd be here, he promised he wouldn't get Ο caught up. Honestly it wasn't a big deal going out anyway. I could still talk to him here about a few things. I wanted to talk about the pack especially night patrols. I wanted to see about maybe changing a few things. I'd probably get shot down, but I just wanted to share sideas, give my input and see what happens.
I had showered, changed into something nice for dinner and was currently sat at the kitchen table e waiting for him. Twaited an hour and the longer I waited the more and more I was getting disinterested in going out. It was almost half 8. We'd be lucky to even get a table at this rate. When 9 o'clock rolled around and he still wasn't hI decided I was going nowhere. I kicked off my shoes and went and changed into my pjs.
I ordered a pizza and got comfortable on the couch with a film. I knew this would happen. I knew he would get sidetracked and forget all about dinner. I'll be lucky to see him before I go to bed tonight.
I was falling asleep. The film was almost over, and Jake still wasn't home. I was starting to beca little pissed off. He hadn't bothered to call or even send a text to say he wouldn't be home.
It was late and I was done with trying to stay up for him. I turned the TV off and put the pizza box through into the kitchen. Taking a bottle of water from the fridge I made sure to lock up before heading upstairs. He had a lot of explaining to do when he finally showed face.
