Chereads / Alpha Luke / Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Deciding

Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Deciding

I paced back and forth as Scarlet decided to use the massage thingy on her feet. She added water with crystal salt so her feet can feel relaxed. But right now all I want to do is think this over. Both business cards are on the table. Luke and Ashton's. I don't now who to ask. My mind is being my curious self. I don't know what to ask. I saw just hints of what I'll be doing but is it certain paperwork? Is it basic? Is it advance? Am I actually working? Is there a catch? Is there something I am not seeing? Why can't I get Luke out of my mind? Why am I acting so weird just for a man? Why is my mind tricking me with certain scenarios? Would there be AC? Are the wolves dangerous? Are the wolves rescues? If it's a sanctuary are there pups also? Would I have a lot of paperwork? Would I have to schedule meetings? Do I have to be present at meetings? What else am I going to do? Do I sort paper work where it belongs? Do I have to make calls? What am I supposed to officially do?

Every time Luke is in my mind my whole body feels so warm and just heated in between my legs. I looked at my phone as I had turned on the AC. It was getting pretty hot today but someone is having fun with heat even if it's her feet. I love the cold. I sighed out as I looked at the window. A flock of pigeons went flying and I walked closer. I am use to the whole. If birds sudden fly off something will happen. Or someone spooked them. I looked down and noticed a group of kids laughing.

I felt for some odd reason with a warm heart. A gentle smile coming forth and all I could do was rub my stomach. Yearning for my own children. Raising them in hilarious way and as well as respectful ways. Learn about life and each other. If I had kids I know for a fact they will be as random as me. They'll spread their wings and everything. My mind made me imagine Luke and I holding a baby. I almost jumped in panic. Embarrassed even.

"Girl are you hungry? Want me to order pizza?" Scarlet snaps me back to my reality

I spun around saying loudly "Yes! PEPPERONI!"

She looks at me awkwardly and says "Okay... Anything else"

"Something chocolaty please..." I say back to my gentle self

She laughs at me and stands up. Getting my floor wet as she gets out of the thing. She shutters as she realizes that the AC is on and the floor is basically super cold. It basically made me laugh out loud. The door rattles and Scarlet and I panic. She was closest so she peaks through the pip hole. I saw her body tenses up. Then we both basically jump back as banging started. Scarlet mouthed that it was my mother. She's back. She heard us. Shit. I looked at the window through the emergency stairs. I pointed to the stairs and she accepts in seconds. I turned my radio on just for in case. I heard something twist. Shit. I grabbed the paperwork and the cards. Phone included. Scarlet gave me the thumbs up and we scattered to the window.

Once out I shut it quickly and we start going down like crazy. I heard the door slam open and my landlord yelling my name. That greedy bitch must be enjoying this. We were able to hide at the second floor as we knew they will look through the window. We waited until we heard pure salience. We waited a bit more and then Scarlet looks up. Gives me the thumbs up and we jolted down. Dodging certain windows just for in case. In one room I noticed the landlords husband getting it on with Brittany from New York. She was a young model. Well wanna be model. I tap at the window and then hide. The door burst open and that's when I heard the whole yelling.

'Oops' In way I feel like it was my fault but I didn't care. All I want is to run away. Scarlet and I basically jumped down from the last step. And just jolted towards Scarlet's car. I heard and officer call my name so I looked back. Crying almost. Fear evident. I barely have any belongings thanks to this woman. Why does she do this all the time? The officer freezes up seeing me cry. Scarlet calls out to me and I quickly jumped into the backseat. She revs her car up and almost speeds off. I hear my mother yelling at cursing at the officer for being incompetent.

This woman will never give up. I looked at the paperwork in hands and I turned my GPS on. Placing the address in it. If they are as rich as I suspect. They want me to work for them. Then the most important question of all would be: Do they house employees in protected areas? I placed my phone GPS on screen. The location was basically and hour and a half away. It was almost in the middle of the forest. Scarlet knew what I was doing so she kept driving following the directions. But after 10 minutes of silence. No music. Windows closed. Just the AC on. Cars speeding by us. Scarlet starts to tap gently in utter anxiety. I knew this well as I usually do this when the terrifying situation happens.

"You still hungry... I don't want you arriving there with an empty stomach" Scarlet tells me with an awkward smile

I could see the fear in her eyes but I say calmly "Alright... Drive threw will please... I don't want to risk stopping..."

"Good... I don't want to stop either" she almost says loudly

"Am sorry Scarlet..." I whispered as I looked down at my hands

"Why?" she asked confused

"If we never met... Your life would have been normal... Instead of running around with me and hiding from my witch of a mother" I explain as I bite my cheek hard

She smacks me behind the head making me look at her "I may be terrified of your mother... But that doesn't mean you aren't my best friend...'

"Scarlet..."

She interrupts me "Life is a piece of shit but that doesn't mean we will do this alone! We're together and that's all it matters!"

I smiled as tears started cascading finally. She is the bestest friend I have ever had. I know for a fact that she will want Burger King right now. As gas station signs were popping. She hits play on the car radio system. Skillet starts playing but it was super low. I tilt my head confused as the name Better than Drugs was on. So she squeals out in joy and raises the volume as high as she could. She updated her music system herself. The bass has its own battery and a lot of things back. So the Bass System is in the back. The equalizer is in the front so she raises the bass part as it almost made my heart skip a beat. Damn she loves this song.

I know a few Skillet songs thanks to her but I haven't heard this song before. For some reason I really loves the song. This song is really good when your showering. Singing your heart out type of song. Best song ever. Let's see how we arrive. Is it a big place? Is it a simple sanctuary? Is there any wolves at all? Are the wolves big? Are the wolves hybrid? How many wolves are there?

I swallowed a growing lump as I wanted to see Luke again for some reason. That would be amazing. I shook my head confused. So I thought. 'I can't be thinking like this... I need to be respectful and responsible!' I sighed out as I noticed someone driving to the left. Going through an exit. I don't see a Burger King sign. Or she saw it while I was deep in thought. Another song pops up and I looked at the radio as the name was passing through. Skillet Surviving the Game. Does she has the whole Skillet playlist on? Cool. I'll get to hear new songs. Scarlet started singing and I noticed the Burger King sign. Excitement was deep in Scarlets hands as she started drumming to the beat.

She enters the drive through as there were two cars ahead of us. Scarlet lowers the bass and then the music.

"What would you want?" she asked curiously

"I'll get the Double Whopper meal... Oreo shake would be my drink and two original chicken sandwiches with bacon and cheese" I tell her excited

"That's good! I'll get my usual... a Bacon King with a coke no ice and two whoppers just sandwich with a small chocolate Oreo shake" she says with a smile

She eats as much as me basically but her body is so model like. Big breasts. Well shaped ass. Curves. Almost a flat stomach. Almost thick thy's. I have a bit of stomach but the rest of my body is annoying. I have a bigger breast than hers and my ass is a bit bigger. I wish I could lose weight again and have a smaller figure. But it's too late. If I lose weight I am afraid of all the weight instead of vanishing as time goes on. I feel like I'll end up having a wider waist and bigger breasts. It's annoying. One car gone. One more to go. Scarlet taps her fingers as she felt more relaxed. It's as if she is playing to the beat of something. What is it? I don't know.

I just hope everything goes well.
