Defying the Alpha

As the Alpha's daughter, Hannah has her life planned out: she will be married to whoever is selected as the new Alpha when her father steps down. However, she is horrified when she finds out that the next Alpha is her childhood bully, Luke Butler. Hannah then finds herself entangled with a mysterious vampire businessman the night of this soul-crushing reveal. With duty calling and sexual tension around the corner, Hannah has a tough decision. Will she defy the Alpha? — “Hannah, you are now eighteen. The time has come for me to pick the new Alpha.” “And my new husband,” I add, translating what this announcement actually means. He doesn’t answer but instead gestures for me to turn around. I do, and as I catch sight of the young man who has entered the room, my heart stops. Behind me stands Luke Butler. My bully since forever. “I refuse him.” Defying the Alpha is created by Jody Tilly, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

Chapter 12: Crowded Cafe

Hannah's pov

Returning to work after the crazy few days I had, has been awkward, to say the least. I hated leaving my father, and yet felt completely confident that Luke could keep watch over him.

I keep replaying the day we had, and each time I find something else to not like about him. I don't want to admit that he's different, but I would be foolish to believe otherwise.

Even with his treatment of my father that day or how once we got to the restaurant, we actually talked about my conspiracy theories about why he was attacked. I thought he was saying that to get me to go out with him.

The way he listened and questioned anything that didn't make sense made me feel seen, and in a way, I've never been when pack issues were involved.

Of course, I can't say the same for Damon and work, though. I can't explain it, but he seems to be avoiding me, or maybe I'm avoiding him. I don't really know.
