GoodReadChpater 281 I had been awake for hours. Lying in bed staring at the ceiling. I kept playing last night over in my head. How did he know where I lived? How long had he been in town? Had he been watching me? My head hurt and I felt sick to my stomach. Last night proved I didn't know him at all. He set out to hurtand that's exactly what he did. I was exhausted. Physically and mentally drained and I had no intention of leaving this room today. Everything was a mess. My life was a rollercoaster and the only good thing I had going forwas Jake. Why couldn't it be simpler? Why did all of this have to happen? Everything happens for a reason but why? Why did my gran have to leave? Why did Lana open her mouth and say the things she did? Was it me? Was I the problem? Grabbing my phone from the nightstand I unlocked it. No messages, no missed calls, nothing. After scrolling through Facebook and checking sapps I put it on do not disturb and shoved it under my pillow.
I didn't want to deal today.
I wanted to sleep and forget last night ever happened.
But I couldn't.
I couldn't switch off.
Nobody was tellinganything. But to be fair I hadn't asked. All I knew was Tommy was taken to hospital and he wasn't dead. Which was a relief on my part. I don't know what I would have done if he was. There was a knock on the door before he entered. He smiled at me. "Wantto run you a bath?".

"What about coming down for something to eat?".
Again, I shook my head.
"Can't stay cooped up in here all day". He sat on the end of the bed.
"I know". He was right. I was cooped up in here and for what? I had to stop the pity party in my head and give myself a shake. I had nothing to feel bad about. He intruded our hwith the intention of hurting me. If I didn't let my wolf take over god knows what he would have done to me.
"You don't feel bad for people like that Leah. You protected yourself just like anyone else would have. He won't hurt you again I can promise you that".
"Is he still here?". I asked.
"I don't want you worrying about him".
"I'm not I just want to know".
"He checked himself out this morning. As far as I know he's on a plane back to Florida".
Relief washed over me. I tried to be brave about everything, but I wasn't. I wanted to be, but I couldn't shake the horrible feeling I had. The thought of him madefeel uneasy.
This was Tommy but it wasn't the Tommy I knew. Unless this was him showing his true colours. A sigh fell from my lips. I couldn't deal with anything else happening to me.
I just wanted to live my life in peace and be happy.
Was that too much to ask? "Baby?".

"I'm fine". I decided I wasn't going to talk about it anymore. didn't want to think about. "But I am hungry". Have I ever mentioned that Jake was a feeder.
I swear he loved to watcheat.
"Are you feeding the pack?". I grinned.
Just then there was a knock on the front door before it open. It was our e friends. All of them. I blushed when my eyes landed on jack.
"I thought you'd want them here". He scratched the back of his head. "If you don't, I can make them leave". "Hey". Alanna yelled. "We can hear you".
