OWNED BY THE ALPHA novel Chapter 48

~Kenzie~

I wiped the my hands on the apron and checked the time on my wristwatch again. My three hours will soon be up and Jason hadn't called to tell me he was here. We finally upgraded to three hours when Jason was sure that I'd be okay. I wiped the sweat off my brow and moved closer to the door to check if Jason is here and is waiting for me or something.

I got to the door and opened it and no one was there. Okay this is getting weird and I'm getting worried. This is the third time this week that this has happened. The last two times I went home by myself. Not that I'm complaining, but anytime I get home Jason would be like 'Oh! You are back?' Or 'Has it been three hours already!'.

He has been absentminded since this week and I don't know the cause. Sometimes he'd get angry at people, never at me. Once, I caught him saying something like 'I don't want to lose her too'. He was repeating the words over and over again. I just hugged him deeply and that seemed to calm him down.

I went back inside and closed the door behind me.

''He's not here today?'' Bridget asked as she was rolling the dough. From her voice, I knew she was worried.

I shook my head as removed the apron and kept it in the hamper.

Something is clearly going on with Jason and I don't know what. I don't even know how to or if I can help him and that's making me feel bad. Very bad.

''I'm sorry honey'' Bridget said. She left what she was doing and came to stand in my front.

''Maybe you should ask him what's wrong. I'm sure he'll tell you''

Maybe that's what I'll do. I looked at her in appreciation.

''Thanks Bridget. Um... Can I go now. There are not much people here. I can stay if you...''

''Oh! Don't worry yourself honey. I've got it covered'' She cut me off as she went back to what she was doing.

I looked at her, unsure because Avery didn't come to work today. Zayn was not feeling well.

''I could stay and help'' I told her as I went towards her. Jason can wait. Not really, but I think she needs my help here.

''Don't worry honey. I'll soon close the shop. I have places to be'' She wiped off the flour on her face with the end of the apron.

Thank you.

''Alright. I'll see you later'' I told her. I kisses her cheek and took my purse.

I was heading towards Jason's office because that's were he usually stays by this time of the day.

I was about to open the door to the office when Beta Andrew, Some pack warriors, Derek( who I found out last week was the Delta. In order words, pack warrior' leader). They all barged out of the room at the same time and closed the door behind them, quickly.

Okaaay...

Andrew nodded his head.'' So that's why we are standing here. Don't worry though, nothing in there can injure him. it's Jason-proofed'' He joked as if trying to make me smile.

It did a little bit in calming me down though. I know that we are werewolves and as an Alpha, Jason heals faster. So I'm not that worried. I am.

I can't let him stay there. He might calm down when he sees me. If not, I'll do everything possible to calm him down.

''I'm going in'' I said and tried to get past Andrew. I know it's funny. The big bad men are outside while the small fragile girl wants to play hero. It can only happen in novels, but I can do it.

Andrew looked at me as if I've grown horns. ''Um... I don't think it's, I'm not sure you...'' He trailed off, as if he does not want to say it and hurt my feelings.

''No problem. I'm he's mate and he might calm down'' I said, whispering the might. I don't want them to know I have doubts in what I want to do. They were very reluctant in letting me go in and I love that about them. About this pack. They care.

I moved to the door and breathed in and out. Another loud bang was heard and I tried not to flinch at the sound. Followed by another and another.

I opened the door and entered it, closing it behind me and leaning on it. The room was upside down. Everywhere was so scattered that there was no place to step on. Thank goodness that the desk is still okay.

I looked at Jason, he was sweating profusely, breathing heavily and from his face you'd know that he is angry. Very angry. He was muttering something that I couldn't hear so I listened very well.

''Can't... Fucking...Her'' Those were the only things I could hear from all the noise.
