I watch alpha Ashwood leave.. There's something about him and I can't seem to work out what

"Why am I to stay away from him" I mindlinks Liam

He looks over to me before his eyes look behind me. Ethan sits down next to me taking my hand, Watching Liam carefully.

"Where's James and Jason?" I ask taking his attention

"There around here somewhere" he says giving me a smile

"Just keep your guard up with him he's not known for his kindness" Liam mindlinks me as he hugs Kelly not making eye contact with me

I mentally roll my eyes what alpha is known for there kindness?

"Are you enjoying your night?" Ethan asks leaning into me and giving me a light kiss on the lips, I nod my head as I look at him feeling a little confused

What's brought on this affection from him? He hasn't even really got angry at me once even though I turned up here against his wishes. I don't know whether to be happy that he's finally treating me like a mate should or feel cautious that something has happened that he feels like he needs to make up for it. My heart skips a beat as I look back at his stunning face wanting him and nothing more but my thoughts are now being clouded with the what if.

"What is it?" He asks frowning

"Nothing" I say smiling weakly

"Hm" he huffs out looking back to Liam

"I think we need to talk" I blurt out as his grip on my hand tightens

Fuck I feel like I'm turning into this whinning little girl

He looks at me for a moment before his eyes glance back around the table

He lets go of my hand and places his arm along the back of my chair as he taps his fingers on the table with the other hand making me feel nervous.

"About?" he mindlinks me turning his head to see me

I look to Chloe to see her and Rhianna in deep conversation and Liam and kel looking cosy across from us looking like there in there own little world now.

"Kelsey" is all I mindlink looking back to him

His body doesn't change as I expected it too, he remains calm as he continues to gently tap his fingers along to the beat of the music. I did think he would give something away hearing me say her name and I feel relief that he doesn't seem too concerned about it what so ever but than I'm reminded that he hides his feelings all too well and for that reason I'm back at square one.

"I can't change things that have happened in the past" he mindlinks casually looking over to Liam

"What was last night than? You were with her and you never came home" my anger being heard through my voice

His eyes snap back to mine clearly angry aswell as I watch his eyes darken. There not black yet but he's definitely close.

I can't help but smile, this is the Ethan I know, I think it just feels like that's more of an honest reaction from him or maybe that's just the part of him I've come to feel more comfortable with?
