Say You Wont Let Go by James Arthur

Victoria's pov

"We're home" I bellowed as I stepped inside. I knew they were already here, since they drove off ahead of Luka and I.

Luka smiled at me mentioning here as 'home', and I noticed I didn't feel weird saying it either. This made him even calmer, but that wasn't my aim, so I sketched back the mean look on my face as I approached them in the living room.

They all immediately looked to Luka as if waiting for him to begin. Except, I calmed him down in the car so now he was all chill while everyone else was tense.

Curse my feelings for him.

I sat at the single chair across from everyone while Luka sat on the arm of the large couch. I kept my features serious and grave as I eyed each of them individually.

Time for business.

"You were Alpha?" I finally asked, getting straight to the point.

"I was" Was all he said as he peered at me as if I should automatically know everything. He had a tendency of doing that, and sometimes it was really annoying.

I gestured for him to continue, already fed up with his inability to explain something properly.

"I became unfit to lead after Ella's death, so I told dad to let Ty take my place" He sighed as he continued.

"Until you were better" Ty added, exaggerating the 'until'.

"Bro you have it all under control, you're doing great" Luka replied truthfully. I would've awed at the situation, but I was too distracted by the secrets that I was finally getting to know.

"Nah but it's your birth right. I wouldn't take that from you. I'll never be a leader like you" He answered sincerely.

As much as Luka was being a good brother, I could really see that he was relieved that Ty wasn't too attached to the title. After all, I'm sure being Alpha is not just about the title.

"What was he like as Alpha?" I asked, genuinely curious. I leaned forward as I got interested in the topic.

"Oh he was the best"

"He was a great leader"

"Nobody could've asked for a better Alpha"

"He banned me from getting parrot"

They all answered at the same time, that last one obviously coming from Caleb. This only peaked my interest even more in him. It seemed like he was a great Alpha.

From where I was, I could see his head swelling as he looked down awkwardly at his hands with a shy smile on his lips. It was the cutest thing ever.

"Why did he ban you from getting a parrot?" I asked Caleb with a laugh.

Luka's head immediately shot up, giving me look as if saying 'really, that's what you chose to ask out of everything that was said?'.
