***ALEX'S POV***
I hadn't even wanted to get roped into telling Jasper right now, and here I was roped into telling my story mom. Ugh, this was so nerve wracking. What was I going to tell her? How was she going to react? Was she going to even believe that Jake wasn't some asshole monster man that lived in the woods? GAHH!
After Jasper all but pushed us out the door of the shop, Jake helped me to get the horse hooked back up to the wagon. It was time for us to head back to my family's home in the trees and tell them that their beloved Scarlet was in love with a man that they probably didn't even know. That was going to be so much fun. Not!
We walked together out of the village, neither of us riding the horse. However, the moment that we were out of there, Jake stopped the wagon and looked at me.
