Playing With The Alpha

Listen to Arctic Monkeys - Do I wanna know.

Zayne POV

I let out a breath of annoyance as I let the steaming water shooting from the shower flow down my body. The warmth relax my sore muscles. I've been out running all day. Ever since Randi took Leah with him I had no clue what to do with myself. Usually, before I met her I had things to do, people to talk to but now, I just don't know.

"She belongs to your brother." I remind myself. What a hypocrite I'll be if I were to pursue my brothers mate. If I let anything become of our friendship. That's all it was and will ever be, a friendship between us. I had no feelings for her. None. Other than the feelings that developed because of the mark. I remind myself.

Turning the faucet off. I step out and wrap a towel around my waist. Now heading into the main room taking a seat at the bed. I pick up my phone that laid beside me, clicking it on and going to my contacts. I let my thumb hover over the name for a moment.

Randi

"It's nothing wrong with checking up on a friend." I reassure myself before clicking it, letting it ring.

"Fuck." I cuss regretting I ever called.

"Yes?"

"Oh, um.....I just wanted to know if you guys made it there safely."

"We'll fine. We're at a motel for tonight. The gathering in the afternoon."

I nod my head as if he could see and remain quite.

"Leah is sleeping if you wanted to know."

He says catching me off guide. Of course he would know the real reason for me calling.

"Zayne?"

"Yeah?"

"Has Camila been by or called? Have you talked to her?" There was something off about his tone.

"No, why?"

"Never mind....bye."

Was all he said before hanging up. I stare at my reflection in my phone and toss my phone back on the bed.

Shit I was so bored. it was now turning six o'clock at night. If I wanted to do something outside the pack, it had to be done now. Since the whole hunter news, packs have been issued a curfew for its members to return to their compacts at ten.

I pick my phone back up and dial Maria

"Just because werewolves like to stay up late on a Tuesday doesn't mean us humans do! Why are you calling me at almost one something in the morning?" She shouts into the phone.

"Lets do something wild. Its dead here."

"Go somewhere with Leah."

"I can't she isn't here."

"Where is she?"

"With my brother. They left two days ago."

"Why is she with him instead of you? Where did they go?"

"It's classified werewolves shit. Now get dress I'll be there in an hour."

"Zay-" she didn't get to finish protesting before I hang up on her. I lay on my back and stare up at the ceiling, closing my eyes,"You don't love her." I remind myself.

It didn't take long to get to Maria's house.

Moments later she appears out the front door and runs to my car. She was dressed in a black mini dress, brown leather jacket and knee high boots. Her hair curled and face covered in makeup.
