The Alpha

Chapter 12

Elena’s POV

My head spun and my brain stopped working completely. I had no idea what to do. What to say.

“I feel like I’m going to throw up Nick” I ran to the toilet.

Nick chased after me, leaving josh to get out my window.

After I came out of the toilet. Nick looked at me guiltily.

“What?” I asked

“Ely? Are you okay?”

“Bad fish” I lied.

I laughed it off. I knew I had thrown up because of nerves, and also because if Nick found out the noise in my wardrobe was Josh. I would have never seen Josh again, and that thought made me nauseas. Nick was worried about me. He followed me around asking if I was okay every 2 seconds

“Nicky, I’m fine, now are you going to leave me alone or come In with me?” I looked at him pointing to the shower.

“Ely, that’s gross.” He responded looking away

“Good now get some sleep its 12am” I demanded.

“Night Ely, love you” He said

“Night Nicky, love you too” I said poking my tongue out at him.

My heart didn’t stop racing until I received a call from Josh.

“Hey” He said and butterflies erupted in my stomach.

“Hey” I responded

“Are you okay Princess?” He asked

“You sound tired” I responded ignoring the question

“Princess?” He demanded

“Fine” I lied

I was terrified.

7am my alarm started to pound and my head.

I got up and took some painkillers.

“You okay Ely?” Nick ask coming out of his room with boxer shorts on only.

“I will be when you put some clothes on” I yelled covering my eyes.

“I have something to ask Ely?” He said seriously

“Ask when you have a shirt on!” I yelled as I started to walk down the stairs.

Nick came down for breakfast a little while later.

“So Ely I have a serious problem” Nick said

My heart stopped

“W-w-what?” I asked hesitantly

“It’s about Josh” Nick said nervously

Why was he nervous?

“What about him?” I asked

“He is running out of money. He needs somewhere to crash.” He slowly looked up.

“Oh” he never told me once he had no money left.

“He is trying to get a job but cant and I was wondering if he could maybe stay here?” He continued “Technically it’s your house and I know you probably wouldn’t want this, but he needs our help?”

My heart stopped racing and slowed, I knew this would be a bad idea. But he need help.

“Okay” I said looking down pouring milk into my cereal
