I lay awake for what seemed like hours, watching the soft rise and fall of Noah's chest, tracing his face with my eyes. I wanted to reach out and touch him, feel his body and his face, but I didn't want to wake him. I was enjoying this too much.
As if he knew what I was thinking, Noah's arms slid over the sheets, searching for me. When his hands touched mine his eyes shot open and his lips pulled up into a smile.
"Good morning" I said, smiling back.
"It is indeed" Noah said shuffling over closer to me and putting his arms around my waist to sit on my back. The way he kissed me felt too intense, too sexual for this hour of the day but I was definitely enjoying it. I didn't want to pull away, if it was up to me I would spend all day in bed with Noah like this.
Unfortunately, Ally had other plans.
"Noah!" Ally's panic filled scream came from the other side of the door as she all but knocked the door down with her hammering.
"What the fuck!" Noah yelled back, his eyes had changed to black. He leapt out of the bed, throwing the duvet over me in his haste, it would have been simple to just push the covers off but instead I twisted and turned and got tangled up in the heap of blankets which muffled the conversation Ally and Noah were having.
After finally escaping, I managed to catch the last part of Ally's sentence. "....two of them, in the holding cells. Dad said you can decide what to do with them"
"Okay just let me throw some clothes on. Can you get Jake and Pete to watch over Dylan, And you too sis, I don't want you guys wondering around today, I don't believe two little girls did this to Cotton, if there's more of them, I don't want you guys getting hurt. Is Uncle Max around for interrogation?" Noah said sounding very serious.
"Yes, He and Frank are downstairs waiting for you. Jakes waiting too but ill let him know hes on "Luna duty" instead" Ally said. A few seconds later I heard the door click closed and Noah's quiet footsteps heading towards his dresser. He sighed as he opened his drawers and took out the clothes he would be wearing today.
"Alpha stuff huh?" I said pushing the duvet down and shuffling myself up to a sitting position.
"Yeah" Noah said as he slipped his shirt over his head and then came to stand at the edge of the bed next to me. He looked strange without his usual smile. He looked older; he looked more like his father. I wasn't complaining, Rheon is a very good looking man, but he's also a very serious looking man, the type of man you wouldn't try being cheeky with because you can't tell which way he's going to react. I much rather preferred my playful and charming Noah who was more like his mother. Sophia was always cheery and had a motherly way about her which was very welcoming. I preferred that Noah.
"Jake and Pete will be your guards today; I don't want you and Ally leaving the house you hear?" Noah said almost sounding like his father too. Was that an order? It sounded like an order. I never liked being told what to do by anyone; I liked it even less when it came from Noah.
"Well actually I wanted to go and grab some clothes from my house today" I said as I threw the covers off my body and flung myself out of bed. "I can't just live in your t-shirts, and your pants don't fit me, they're too small" I said feeling a little self-conscious after that confession. Noah had thrown me a pair of shorts last night before we went to bed that had a little stretch in them, but they were too small. The track pants I had worn of his the other day were an extremely loose fit on him, in fact he had to pull the draw cords tight to keep them up, but they fit me quite snuggly.
Even if Noah pulled out a hundred pairs of baggy track pants, I still wanted to wear my own clothes.
"I'll take you to get some when I'm finished. Stay here" he said as he walked out of the room slamming the door behind him. What? No kiss good bye? Not even a smile? I was amazed by how quick his mood changed. This morning when he woke he was all smiles and sweetness, but after Ally came to call him out for Alpha stuff he changed. Maybe Ally could shed some light on his mood swings.
"Ally?" I called aloud as I entered her room. I had changed into my clothes from yesterday and miraculously found my way to her room; this house really was far too big for four people.
"Hey Dyls" she said as she walked out of her bathroom, drying her hair with a towel. "What's up?" she asked
"Want to come with me to go and grab some clothes from my place?" I asked as I sat down on her bed, she was plugging in her blow dryer that I knew she didn't know how to use so I stood up and walked over taking it from her hands and starting it up.
"Yeah sounds good, maybe we could grab some lunch on the way back?" Ally yelled over the noise from the blow dryer. I smiled and gave her a thumb's up in the mirror. Maybe a nice lunch from the bakery or something would lighten Noah's mood. I thought to myself.
We were just getting into the car when I spotted a man running towards us from the other side of Ally's house. "Who's that?" I asked Ally pointing towards the man who was only ten or so meters away from us now.
"Oh that's Pete" Ally said looking down to buckle her seat belt in.
I wound my window down just as Pete reached my car. "Hey Pete" I said, acting as if I always knew his name.
"Where do you two think your going?" he asked leaning down by the window to the same level as Ally and i.
Pete had dark brown eyes and tanned skin; he looked a little older than Noah but not by much. The hair on his head wasn't much longer than the stubble that covered his face. He had a glowing white smile with feminine shaped lips. He was very handsome in a rugged way.
"Just going to grab some clothes and stuff from my place since im going to be staying here a lot" I replied.
"Does Noah know you're going?" he asked giving me and Ally a sceptical smile and then said "I know you're not meant to be leaving the house"
"Get in moron! We're only going to Dylan's house it's not like were going out looking for trouble?" Ally said leaning over me and looking out my window at Pete. Calling Pete a moron probably wasn't the smartest move, but that was Ally for you, she spoke like that to everyone, you could say it was a show of endearment.
Pete laughed and opened the door behind me and slid into the back seat. After he buckled his seat belt up I backed up a little and began to turn to drive out when I spotted Jake. Great, here's my other guard, I suppose he's going to come too. I thought to myself. I put the car into park and pulled the hand break up.
Jake's face didn't look half as friendly as Pete's did as he got closer to the car, In fact he looked kind of pissed off.
I wound my window back down again and waited for him to reach the car.
"Where are you going?" Jake asked before I had a chance to even say hello.
"We're going to grab some clothes from my house" I said looking up at him. Unlike Pete, Jake didn't lean down to look into the car he stood tall with his arms crossed over his shoulder, he definitely wasn't in a good mood.
"Get out of the car" he said reaching in the window and grabbing my keys out of the ignition. Why was everyone so grumpy today? First Noah and now Jake, neither of them were ever grumpy like this.
"Hey!" I yelled and slapped his arm a few times but it was no use, Jake now had my keys and he was walking away from me. I pushed my door open and heard Pete chuckling to himself in the back.
"You're not leaving Dylan" Jake said, not even bothering to turn and look at me. He shoved my keys in his pocket and began walking faster.
I didn't see what the big deal was, Why wasn't I allowed to leave the house, why did I have to stay here all day while Noah was off doing Alpha stuff, even with Ally here it didn't seem like much fun.
Jake stopped walking in front of me and even though it took a couple of long strides to catch up to him I still smacked into his back and stumbled back a bit. He was staring up into thin air, lost in thought.
He turned around and was just about to say something when Ally came running up behind me.
"Dylan, it's Caitlin" Ally said as she stopped in front of me.
"What about her?" I said rolling my eyes, why would I care about Caitlin?
Ally grabbed my hand and started walking around the back of the building with me in tow, "Caitlin is one of the rogues in our cells"
