All Chapters of She's Not For You: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

ANNAIt shouldn't bother me.  It shouldn't irritated me.But here I am.  Sitting with Michael on my porch swing.  Secretly irritated. I know I'm a hypocrite, but how dare he hook up after telling me he wanted to fix things.  With a chick barely 18.  "What's wrong?"  Michael asks as he plays with my hair.I shake my head.  "Nothing."He moves his arm from behind me and sits up.  "No.  Somethings wrong.  You were distracted at the bar.  Now, you seem off.  What's up?"I play with my coffee cup.  "I'm just a little irritated today."He sighs.  "It's because you saw River with another woman, isn't it?"I furrow my brow.  "No."He tilts his head.  "Anna, come on.  I know you.  You hated seeing him with that girl."I roll my eyes.  "Fine.  Yes.  It pissed me off me a little."He furrows his

MICHAEL"So you're ok with this."  I sit in bed,  waiting for Anna to finish up in the bathroom. She finished brushing her teeth, turned out the light and headed to her side.  She's fucking adorable in her sleep shorts and tank top."Of course.  Why wouldn't I be?"  She climbs into bed and I cuddle her on my chest."Oh I don't know.  Maybe because a couple of days ago, you couldn't stand him dating other people?  Just seems like a brush off.  Like you're just bottling or something."  I put my hand behind my head."I'm ok Michael.  Really.  Yeah, it's a bit upsetting, but what can I do.  Nothing.  So I'm forgetting about it and just concentrating on us.  It's over.  No more wasting energy on it."  She flicked her light off."Ok."  I say with apprehension.  "As long as you're really ok."She giggles and gives me a kiss.  "Really.  I

RIVERAlright, so here's the thing.  I know making that bet with Anna will get me in a tiny bit of trouble.  On one hand, if I lose, I have to deal with whatever Anna comes up with and on the other, if I win, I have to tell my girl I can't hang with her because I'm having to babysit my ex on our Saturday.  I probably should have thought it through, but what can I say, I love a challenge and I'll admit, I may not have been thinking with my brain at the time.  It doesn't help that Anna's challenge is right up my alley.  If she wants me, she'll have to catch me.  And I'm here for it.I'm really not sure if Emily will like the thought of me hanging with my ex all day.  I know I'd have a big problem with it.  I also know the thought of it, must be driving Michael up the wall.  Can't say I don't like that.  So I should just give Anna the win, for Emily's sake.  I can't go breaking her heart just

ANNAWith Michael now gone, I'm leading our little group through the dense trees.  The pickings are thin as our teams shrink.  There's about fifteen yellows left and twelve greens.  All three Alphas are also still in play.  We jump on a small path and follow its winding trail around a group of trees.  I hear a twig snap and motion to Franco and the couple others with us to take cover and be silent.  I peek over the bush.  I see a body moving, but there's no color to it.  It's an Alpha.  I can't see which one.I reach into my ammo pack and pull out the red ball."Shit.  You got a ball?"  One of the guys whispers.I shush him and tell them all to stay put.  I sneak around to see who it is.  Then it hits me.  The familiar woody scent that makes my body melt.  I smirk to myself as I load the ball marked with a B into my gun.  Whe

ANNAThe next two weeks were grueling.  Sparring exams, team events.  All to show the Alphas what we learned and how we use it.  All for our ranks.  Today we're are completing our final tests of strength, stamina and team work.  After this training session, the Alphas will present our ranks.  To say I'm excited is an understatement.  It may have been only months, but I feel like I've changed so much in that time.  I don't feel like that rebellious biker chick anymore.  For once in my life, I feel like I'm a part of something that's bigger than me.  And I'm not talking about just the unit.  River and I are much bigger than I thought.  Together we can bring down anything.  We will hold each other up.  I never thought I would ever find someone who completed me like David did, but River does that and so much more.  I also don't care what the moon says.  Fate or not, I'm not letting him go
