The alpha

Chapter 3.

Olivia

I went straight to the shower and got everything ready for work in the morning, since I started at 9:00 and finish at 4:00, I might as well get everything prepared. I work two jobs. One of them is a waitress at a restaurant, the other is at a small, but cute, cafe. Tomorrow my job is Starbucks.

I get paid well but I don't need much since I still have a whole lot more money in my savings bank from my parents will. I didn't know they were saving up but I found out when they'd died. Sometimes their money has helped me get back on my feet, when I lost my job as a PA to one of the biggest CEO companies in New York, I moved back here to California, because it would have been easier for me and its where all the memories are.

I was so annoyed at Layla for just dropping me in like that. Even though she knows I don't date. You see, Layla was never always in a happy relationship, small arguments, big arguments, loving each other.

She was once like me, we sort of went off the rails at one point and did everything together. We brought a boy home each night at 17, but since she found George at 19, she had settled down.

I guess I kind of wanted us to be like it was for a longer period of time, but she met George at the hospital, when she was visiting her father and they've been inseparable this whole time. It's not the same and I think that's why I go out near enough every night to fill that empty space. It shouldn't be like that though, I should be able to move on from everything and start fresh, but I can't. I know my family would be dissapointed in me right now but hopefully they will understand I couldn't imagine having my mum go through the pain of losing us all including dad, or for Lee, my older brother, to go through the pain of losing us.

I finished getting everything sorted and went downstairs to find something to eat. Layla was on my kitchen counter, cooking like nothing had happened. "I think you should go." Her head snapped around. "What?" She barely whispered as tears came to her eyes. I held on, trying not to let her effect me. "Just go back to George, for god sake. He's the one you care about. He's the one you love. He's the one your always going to chose over me. Just go!" I shouted at the end, getting angry that it was true.

She shook her head. "I do love him, yes of course I do. But I would never chose him over my best friend. I have known you for 13 years, I am not going to let a boy come between us." I shook my head, slamming my fist down on the counter top, making her jump. "Get out of my house!" I shouted. She sobbed as she ran out, grabbing her stuff on the way.

I hate arguing with her but I needed to be alone. I couldn't face another person until tomorrow. I grabbed the food off of the stove and poured it out on a plate. I shook my head, moving the argument to the back of my head. I ate the food silently, watching some random TV show, which was all I could find on that seemed interesting.

I finished three quarters of it and then I got full. I moved the dish into the kitchen and put it on the side, I'll move it later. I'm too exhausted to care at this moment in time, so I went to bed and fell straight asleep.

I woke up on the sofa and sighed, yawning. I stood up and walked into the kitchen to grab a glass of water, when I turned around I saw Kaiden stood there, naked. I gasped and put my glass down on the kitchen side. He walked over to me and lifted me up on the kitchen counter and then he whispered in my ear, "I want you." I gasped as he pulled me close to him.

He brought my hand down so I could feel him, I couldn't fit all of him in my hand but I did my best. He threw his head back moaning and groaning under my touch. He shook his head. "Stop, baby. Not yet." He pulled my underwear off of my legs and moved his head down. I gasped and tugged at his hair as he worked his magic. I grabbed the cupboard for support, leaning against it. I was about to come undone when he stopped and looked up at me.

"Your mine." All of a sudden, he growled and bit me in my neck. I screamed.

~Dream.

I woke up with a startle, shooting up in my bed, my heart was pounding. I put my lamp on and felt my neck, nothing was there. It was all a dream. I sighed, relieved. Oh, god. First I dream of Kaiden and I doing - things and then he turned on me and bit me.

I'm kind of turned on right now but I'm scared at the same time. I bit my lip and took a gulp of my water that was next to me, in a glass, on my bed side table. I leaned back, wishing that he was here right no-. Whoa, whoa, whoa there. No, I don't, I can't. I need to stop thinking like this.

I rolled my eyes, checking the time as my alarm clock went off. Half 7, I can get in another half an hour.

I woke up once again to my alarm going off, it's 8 o'clock I better get ready. Oh shit! My cars still at the club! This is why I don't let guys take me home. I sighed. I'm not talking to Layla, I can't ask her boyfriend or brother.

I quickly got ready and by the time I had it was quarter to 9. I grabbed my phone just about to call Tommy when I heard a knock at my door.

My eyebrows furrowed as I went to open it. I unlocked the door and opened it. I saw Kaiden stood there leaning against the door frame grinning. "I'm taking you to work this morning, darling." I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms. "No. Your not."

He chuckled and shrugged. "Fine I'll go. Don't know how your going to get there though." I sighed and went over in my head any other decisions. What if Tommy doesn't answer? I don't think George would either.

I groaned loudly. "Okay! Stop." I said as he just opened his door. "Wait there one minute."

I went inside and grabbed my bag, with some of my work stuff in, my phone, money and keys. I quickly locked the house door and walked to the car.

He opened the door for me again, from inside of the car, and I got in and closed the door. It was ten to 9 by the time we had set off. "So I guess you and Layla had an argument? She went home crying last night to George." I clenched my jaw and ignored him.

"You know she's only doing what's best for you. There's no need to be so harsh." I turned around and glared at him.

"Since when was it any of your business?" I said as he tensed. "It is my business George is my best friend and when his girlfriends hurt he is." I scoffed and rolled my eyes. "I don't care about him."

"So you do care about Layla." I scoffed. "What kind of stupid question is that. We've been best friends for 13 years now. Obviously I care about her. I have since day one."

"Then what's stopping you from making up with her?"
