All Chapters of In Between The Alphas: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Jake never let me live that kiss down. He gloated about it for almost a full week after and he brought it up again a month later when he asked me out and I said yes. According to him one of the main reasons I said yes is because he’s a phenomenal kisser. I told him he was an okay kisser and he proceeded to show me otherwise. Greg wasn’t the biggest fan of me dating him because according to him someone was going to end up heartbroken and it was most likely going to be Jake because I won’t be able to be the Beta female he wants me to be and there was also the looming possibility of us finding our mates or Jake finding out why I’m really here and on the run. I actually tried to tell that to Jake (well not everything- just the part about me not being able to move to his pack with him our mates) but he promised that he was never going to try to put me into a box. He also said that we would end whatever we had when we found

 My first thought was to refuse but he shot me a look that made me go quiet instantly. “I know you’re going to refuse,” he began, “But the only other option is leaving you here to chance and I can’t do that to you. I won’t leave you to the mercy of that bastard.”         “So what are you going to do?” I asked “Are you going to hide me away and lie to your Alpha about me? He will kill you when he finds out.” “I don’t lie to Logan ever.” He said, “He’s a good guy and I know he won’t turn you down.”          “He might be a good guy but do you really think he’s going to risk a war with another pack because of a girl who isn’t even your mate?” “I understand your

 Apparently the pack house was that massive castle like building we visited yesterday. Technically it’s a part of it and not the entire thing; the other part that houses people was another building about thirty minutes away. Jake spent a few minutes with Logan trying to convince him to let me work here. There were a few raised voices (I was listening in from outside) and I honestly thought that Jake would come out and tell me Logan refused but then finally Logan relented and I was allowed to help out with the children at the daycare. “I tried to make him give you something else; I know children can be a menace.” Jake said but I stopped him.         “It’s okay honestly,” I said, “I’ve always loved children so this should be easy for me.” I sighed, “Besides I’m grateful that I’m even allowed to do somethi

 Jake refused to speak about what happened that night. I tried talking to him about it the next day but he completely shut me out and changed the subject. I even tried again a few days after that and he actually yelled at me to never bring it up again. It has been weighing on my mind since then and I don’t know who to talk to about it. Diana wouldn’t understand and Logan and I- although he doesn’t out rightly hate me- I still don’t know how I feel about telling him something like that. Today I don’t have work, in fact, they have a bi-annual pack gathering and that’s what we’re going for. I made a bunch of brownies and tea cakes to take because Diana asked me to and was in the middle of setting up when I felt a presence behind me. I turned and jumped slightly when I noticed Logan. “I’m sorry if I scared you,” he said and I nodded and waved him off, &

 I couldn’t concentrate throughout the day; I was running on fumes because I couldn’t sleep all night. I was scared Jake would come into the room and attack me in the middle of the night and my mind was a jungle. It also didn’t help my nerves when he pinned me to the car as soon as he came down this morning and gave me a very vivid reminder of what would happen if I did anything to upset him today. “You know I still don’t understand why you’re wearing a turtleneck in this heat,” Diana said from across the room and I subconsciously tugged at my sleeve and neckline before turning to her, “It is like 90 degrees in here and you’re over there comfortably wearing a long sleeved turtleneck top like it’s a winter wonderland.”          “I don’t feel that hot,” I lied. “Now that’s a b
