Page 45 of Their Knotty Pack
Kieran snorts a derisive laugh. "Sure."
I can't deal with this right now. I can't wonder why Hunter wasn't at the heat clinic when I don't even want the damn alphas, and I sure as hell can't deal with this "battle of the alphas" dominance scenario we've found ourselves in.
"Just how newly formed are you guys?" I hear Miles ask as I pull my phone out of my pocket. Pressing the button to power it on, I tune out the noises around me as text after text pings. Cady, Archie, and Lanie have all texted multiple times.
Cady
Hey Beth! Text me after you check out, just want to check in. I remember my first one after coming off suppressants and it was a doozy *silly face emoji*
Me:
We're all good! Well, kind of. But everyone is physically safe and I'll update you later.
I left my plants with Lanie so she could water them, but I doubt she'd text five times about them.
Biting my lip, I check her message first.
Lanie
Happy for you and Miles!
Lanie
Hey, I know you're in the middle of your fuckfest or whatever, but Pack Hansen left a sticky note on my door for you to call them.
Lanie
Again, I know you can't answer, but now they've come to the house.
Lanie
Should I call your brother? He's in a pack with that security guy.
Lanie
I'm calling Archie.
Shit, shit,shit.
Why are they suddenly interested again? Because they saw Miles and I together?
Archie's first message had come in twenty minutes after Lanie's last one.
Archie
We've set Lanie up with some security cameras for her apartment and if she needs it, Titus will send over a guard. They don't know where you're living now, but I'd still keep an eye out.
Archie
Noah is offering to 'ruin their lives'.
Ha. Shaking my head, I send off two separate messages to Arch and Lanie, apologizing to Lanie and assuring Archie that I'm okay.I'll have to fill them in on the whole accidentally-biting-and-bonding-an-alpha-I-can't-stand thing later.
"Everything okay?" Miles asks in my ear, and I look up to see the attention of every male on me.
My mouth goes dry. The way they look at me…it's not like they want to dress me up and display me somewhere for everyone to see, which is what I had been used to from Pack Hansen. At the time, it had made me feel special. Important.
The waythesemen look at me though, even Kieran, who seems as fond of me as I am of him, and Hunter, whojustmet me…well, they look at me like they want to wrap me up and keep me all to themselves.
