Chapter 5

*BRIANNE’S POV*

His threat sent cold chills down my throat.

Is he literally forcing me to be his girlfriend?

Well, what would I expect from an alpha of his reputation.

Why would he even bother himself with me in the first place?

“Where is your house?” His husky voice asked calmly.

Another reason why I regret getting into this car. What would my father say when he sees me with him.

“The second house on the ninth street” I answered, almost choking on my own saliva.

Today would be the day my father would finally kill me. He’ll probably think I’m finally into some kind of hook up business after been rejected by my mate, because there’s no way in hell an Alpha of Jordyn’s caliber would have any sort of interest in me.

The thought of me, an omega, catching the eye of someone like Jordyn was laughable. It is inconceivable that someone of Jordyn’s stature would be interested in me.

The closer we drew to my house, the more scared I became. I silently prayed for a miracle to happen—any miracle, I pleaded with the universe. Please let something happen to stop this, let Jordyn’s car break down or…anything.

“You know a lot of girls would be glad to be this close to me” He said. It was as if he was reminding me of what I obviously knew but I remained silent. The silence in the car was almost deafening as I even tried not to breathe too loud.

My silence must have annoyed him because he suddenly stopped the car, slamming on the brakes without any warning. I gasped in surprise, my head almost hitting the airbag.

“Get down” He said. His eyes looked puzzled and deranged, like something had happened.

What is happening? Did I do something?

“Now!” He commanded, his knuckles went white as his fist tightened around the steering wheel.

I quickly opened the door and slipped out of the car.

He drove off in the next second without even looking at me.

I could tell… he was been called.

It was a telepathy call and only people who have their wolf possess such abilities.

I needed to thank whoever called him because they saved me a lot of trouble. Thankfully, none of the neighbors saw him.

I stood there watching the car disappear into the busy lane ahead, having a mixed feeling of relief and confusion. What had just happened? And who could have made that telepathy call that seemed to summon him right away?

“Are you ready to explain yourself now?” Mary’s unexpectedly calm voice asked me through the phone.

“Trust me, I don’t even know what’s going on” I said

“Brianne, you don’t know what’s going on but alpha Jordyn pulled up at your school today,?” Her voice was full of questions.

“I don’t know why he did that” I tried to explain. “Okay look, he asked me to be his girlfriend for three weeks… but I didn’t agree to it” I spewed.

“What?!” Mary’s exclamation came out rather strangled.

“Sounds crazy right? He said I he’s giving me a chance to make up for what happened ” I said with a nonchalant attitude.

“Make up for what happened?” Mary repeated, her voice laced with skepticism.

“Bri, what exactly did you get yourself into?”

I hesitated, unsure if I should reveal everything, but Mary’s concern put me at ease and I found myself spilling the entire story.

When I finished, Mary was silent for a moment before speaking up. “Bri, I think you’re in trouble” she said calmly, I could hear the sarcasm in her voice.

“We both know Alpha Jordyn doesn’t do things without a reason, and this… this is just weird.”

“I know” I agreed, letting go of all my hesitations. “But I don’t know what to do, he just showed up and…and…”

“And what?” Mary prompted, her voice firm.

“He said I took advantage of him and he’d make me his if I didn’t agree to be his girlfriend” the words came out of my mouth in a barely audible whisper.

The line went silent, awfully silent that I thought Mary had hung up. But then her voice came back, full of determination.

“I think you should stay away from him” She said

“He’d find me anyway” I sighed in defeat. “I don’t know what he’s getting at, but putting him to anger is not a good idea” I said.

“So what do you suggest?” Mary asked

“I’ll just play his game, after three weeks I’ll be free” I assured.

“Are you sure about this?” Mary asked, her question laced with worry.

“Yes I’m sure” I replied

‘No I wasn’t’

I hung up the phone, I couldn’t shake off the feeling that Alpha Jordyn was far from done with me.

Just then, my phone buzzed again. The contact displayed on the screen was unknown. I hesitated, wondering if I should answer it, but something compelled me to pick up.

“Hello?” I said in a voice barely above a whisper.

“Brianne,” A familiar low husky voice said, sending chills down my spine. “We’re not done yet.”

And with that, the line went dead.
