#Chapter6
---Why Me??
/"Elle get the hell out of the car now!/"
Leto says with frustration
When Aberdeen told me that Josh has agreed to leave me for training techniques, I didn't take it well. They may not know Eric was my mate but hell no, I'm not going to stay here with him and his so-called chosen mate Claire.
/"Look I'm sorry if you don't want to but it was Alpha Josh's order, not mine./"
My arms crossing on my chest I sat in the car stubbornly. Eliz is a heart-warming Wolf but not me her human side, Nah ah.
/"Elle we're not leaving you here for good, Josh wants you to learn their technique, it’s part of the deal/" Aberdeen chirped in. I seriously despise our Alpha now, how could he do this to me? Opening the car's door, I went out and asked him
/"Why me Beta?/" I used his title instead of his name which I could see Leto’s eyes turning red.
/"Don't do that Elle/"
Like I said I can be stubborn too and I wanted him to tell me the truth
/"Why is it because…/" I could feel my eyes burning now but I refuse to cry. /"I don't have a/" not wanting to say it out loud so I mind-link him blocking everyone else out /"a family, a nobody?/"
Hurt was evident in his eyes; he holds both of my shoulders.
/"No Elle,/" his voice rises and in a harsh tone
/"Please understand, Josh only trusted us three, but you know I'm a beta who is assigned for other business and Aberdeen is our only trainer for the youngsters/" his hands squeezing my shoulder as if to assure me that it's business not personal.
/"We could never turn our back on you, so please Elle we need you on this one,/" he pleaded.
Seeing me in resolution Leto hugs me then Aberdeen /"Know that we're not leaving you here for good, it's just a month Elle/" Aberdeen hugs me tighter.
I pull back /"Aw just admit it, you guys are happy the third wheel won't disrupt you on the way home/" I wink to the both of them making Aberdeen pinch me on the shoulder, but it didn't hide her cheeks turning red.
/"Guys/" I just remembered something, no one can stay over at other people's place without clothes.
They both look at me with worried expressions.
/"What am I going to wear, we didn't bring any of my clothes or pads or toiletries?/"
/"Right we should go back home, then drop you off here tomorrow./" I quickly agree with Aberdeen, there is no way I'm staying here tonight. ‘Someone is desperate to be away from here,’ Eliz grumbles.
We all walk back to Alpha Eric, /"apologies Alpha, we thought it would be best if Elle comes with us today since she hasn't brought any suitcase for her stay over/" Leto apologized and hoping he would say okay.
Fingers crossed to the moon goddess to knock some sense in Alpha Eric.
/"No worries, Beta, we will provide her with it/" my eyes went wide, and my head keeps on cursing that voice while Eliz grins and claps her paws in my head with joy.
/"No/" I didn't know I shouted out loud which they all turn to me
/"No/" Eric frowned, and Claire looks as if she wanted to murder me for disrespecting Eric.
/"I mean, I don't want to trouble you and I don't think anyone is the same size as me,/"
/"Like I said we will provide/" I seriously want to scream now and crush his bones.
'Yeah, like you could, and instead of crushing aren't you supposed to say jumping' Eliz retorted in my head ’and here I thought you would forget him since we got rejected’ and that shuts her up for good.
/"Thank you Alpha and we're sorry for the troubles/" he raises his hand /"Oh please don’t; it is with pleasure after all what good allies are for./"
After waving goodbye to Aberdeen and Leto, I turn around towards the pack house with the people whom I want to avoid. Smiling, while gritting my teeth, is the only option for the time being. I don't know what's got into Josh's head, but I just wish it wasn't me he chose to stay.
/"Lucian will show you to your room and please,/" Claire cling’s to Eric's side /"don't be a stranger dear and remember dinner is at 7 pm/" you could easily tell fake in her expression.
Furrowing my eyebrow there was only one thing in my head that keeps on repeating.
/"Why me Josh?/" I mumble.
