The Alpha and The Runt

Chapter 2

Leila

I woke up from my slumber when the car came to a complete stop. Right before my very eyes was the most beautiful house I have ever seen. It was an old white colonial home with a huge front porch. The home was surronded by a lush garden of tulips, and there was a tire swing in the front yard. It look like someone cut a photo froma house magazine and glued it right here. " Well since we are here it is time for me to part ways with you guys, nice meeting you Leila and see you tomorrow Alpha." Blake says before exiting the car. Once he is gone I climb into the front seat. " Looks like its just you and me mate." I say to Clint , trying to get on his nerves. " Lucky me!" He says with a full mouth of sarcasm and roll my eyes. I chuckle to myself.

Mission accomplished.

Clint pulls the Cadillac into the garage and I get out and walk inside the house. Even though this is the last place I would like to be right now I definetly can't deny that I'm excited to explore this house. I step into a large modern kitchen with stain less steel aplliances, and cool lighting fixtures. Then slighty to my right is a beautiful marble staircase that leads to the upstairs, and all the way to the right is a huge family room equipped with a 72 inch flat screen and white leather couches. " Wow!" I manage to say. Clint walks through the door. " Be ready by 6 pm for dinner with my mom." He says to me before walking towards a room. "Where are you going?" I say to him. " My office..." He says with a duh expression on his face. " Well excuse me." I say to myself while rolling my eyes. I wonder what his mom will be like, I heard that she was a nice and caring lady. I guess you can say I was kind of nervous about meeting her , but then again when am I not nervous about meeting people. Especially when you are the daughter of a coward. I open the door to the big stainless still fridge. My eyes scan over all the goods that await before my eyes.

I could get used to this.

I take out a ice cold root beer and just as I'm about to open it Clint comes out of his office. " Your bedroom is the second one on the left." "Also my Beta's mate dropped off some of her clothes for you to borrow." He says to me while shuffling through some what look like important papers. " Thanks." I say and sip my root beer. " Yup." He says back in a sarcastic tone. What the heck why did he act this way to me! Does he feel the love that I feel for him? All of a sudden a thought flashed in my mind and before I could stop my self I said it. "Why did you accept me?" I ask him sincerely. "What!?" His head snaps up from his papers and now I have his full attention. " Why did you accept me as your mate!?" I say back with a little more force. I was scared to know what the answer was , but I desperately wanted to know why. He just looked at me for a second with his dark cold brown eyes. Then he finally spoke. " I'm not stupid Leila." He says with a sigh. " My feelings for you are strong, when I first saw you I wanted to mark you right away. My wolf howls for you, but I just ignore him." He says his voice dropping each word, till the last sentence comes out in a whisper. "Well then why do you look at me and treat me the way that you do?" I retort back, my eyes starting to water. "I'm done answering your dumb questions." He says back to me with that annoyed tone again. I don't say anything else.
