Alana novel Chapter 40

Alana's POV

We all wish we had a forever person.

A forever loyal person.

Kind person.

Stand up for me, person.

Trust me they exist, and when they come into your life, don't let them go.

"Who are these people?" I whisper to Aiden as he sat on the stool eating Cheerios.

"Jake. Jackson. And James. Brothers." These guys were scary. All of them were, tall and buff.

And when I say buff.

I mean buff.

Tattoos ran down their hands and I instinctively move closer to Aiden.

"Babe, don't worry, they're big softies." I watch as they sat on the couch, shouting profanities at each other.

After Aiden made a phone call, we were now situated at the brother's cabin. And it was huge.

"You look like you're about to pee your pants." Aiden snickers and I glare at him.

"How do you even know them?"

"I went to school in London and they just happened to be in my class. We were close friends you know, but I moved and everything went quiet." He shrugs and I stare at him intently.

"Alright. Sounds interesting." I nod, satisfied and he smiles.

"You're adorable."

"I'm not adorable!" I retort and he raises an eyebrow, pinching my cheeks. "Touch me again and I'll beat you up," I mutter and he smirks.

"Sure about that princess?" He whispers pulling me and I narrow my eyes.

"Stop it! My ribs!" I yell laughing as Aiden straddles me, tickling everywhere.

"Aiden!" I breathe squirming and he stops.

The door swings open and three heads pop in.

"Are you guys getting it on in here?" Black haired, James asks and I blush.

"If so, the condoms are in the left drawer. Safety first!" Brown-haired Jackson grins and I bury my face in Aiden's chest as he sits.

"Keep the noise down also. I can see, well rather hear, she's a screamer." Blonde Jake says and I groan as Aiden bursts out laughing.

"Anyway guys, get some rest, we're starting extremely early."

They get out and Aiden slowly rubs my back.

"You know you're amazing right?" Aiden says and I raise an eyebrow, leaning away and lifting my eyes to his. "Look at all you've been through and you're still pushing, with your own business, you're own reputation, and you...you let me in, after all that heartache. You've been through a lot. Tell me what I did to deserve you?"

I avert my eyes and lean back into his chest.

"You're amazing too you know. You didn't give up on me, even if I was rude to you, you never ran away when you learned my story. Every day you deal with a new shade of me and you deal with it so smoothly, even with your past. Thank you." He breathes in and for a moment its just silent as we appreciate each other.

"Maybe we could seal the gratefulness?" He says and I smile amused.

"You're acting like we're not being hunted by a set of werewolves."

"They don't matter." He murmurs as he lays me down slowly onto the bed. He hovers over me and keeps my eyes in his line of vision.

"I love you..." He says and I smile softly at him.

"I love you too."

He trails kisses down up neck and I bite my lip as he reaches my throat. It tickled a little and soon he was at the chin. He avoided my lips, reaching my cheeks, my nose, my forehead, my other cheek.

I grab his face impatiently and collide his mouth with mine. He smiles against my lips and we move in sync. I grant access for his tongue, and I groan, placing my hands over his neck, pulling him closer.

Soon, his hands are all over me as he flips us so that I was straddling him.

We don't break apart and I can see that he was getting a little too excited if you know what I mean.

I slowly stop the kiss and move away.

"You noticed too huh?" He smirks and I roll my eyes, still sitting on him. His hands rest lazily where my butt meets his skin and he placed one hand behind his head.

"Yup. Control your little friend." I tease and winks.

"Not with you sitting on me like this." I laugh softly, moving off of him.

"Sorry princess, we can't risk him being taken. If they capture him, its game over, he'll be dead, but they don't want to kill you."

Aiden still seems grumpy but I completely understand.

We get to the basement and I gape as the secret door opens. Weapons. So many weapons.

"Ohmigosh this is amazing!" I squeal running towards the knives. I pick out two small ones and place one in my boots and one on my hop under my shirts. "It's a shame we couldn't use weapons for illegal fighting." I murmur and I turn to find all four boys staring at me.

"Illegal fighting?" Aiden crosses his arms and raises an eyebrow and I avert my eyes. "We'll talk about that later.

"You look like a woman standing like that." I tease and he slaps my butt while picking out his weapons.

"My eyes!" They all yell and we grin at each other before pecking lips. "Ew."

They pretended to gag and I laughed as Aiden shook his head.

It was time to go and time to finish this. Once and for all.

Aiden's POV

I watch my sunflower intently as she roams around, she looks honestly captivated by some of the things she sees and I can't help but smile at how cute she is.

A few minutes pass, and nothing. She goes past a tree with a blue mark and my eyebrows furrow.

"Aiden! She's going outside the safety zone." James whisper.

"Did you even tell her about those?!"

"I forgot..." He murmurs and I glare at him. I was about to go out when he grabbed my arm.

"Leo, you can't go out there you'll blow our cover." Jake whisper yells.

"She might get into trouble."

"She'll scream." And as soon as he says that...

"No!" Alana yells and I was the first to move out of there, my heart hammering against my chest, but as soon as we got there, she was nowhere to be found. We searched and searched but all we were met with was silence.

"You see what you did?! I told you. I told you let me go with her!" I grabbed any of the brothers by their collar and they all looked regretful.

"Aiden...man-"

"What the hell are we going to do now?!" I let him go running my hands through my curls.
