Fierce Nervous Beta

1 week

I rummage through my cupboard for my hippy pants in the back of cupboard because it's supposed to be a bit chilly tonight. I already have my crop top on and my fancy flip flops ready. I hear a knock at my door.

"Come in." I mumble as I rummage through my cupboard.

"What are you looking for?" JayJay asks and I'm pretty sure he's lying on my bed.

"Long pants. Apparently it's gonna get a bit chilly tonight so I don't want to be cold on the way back. HA!" I pull my pants out the cupboard and walk into my room while I pull them on.

"Clearly I didn't get that memo." JayJay chuckles and gestures to his shorts and T shirt. He stands from the bed while I slip my flip flops on. "Ready?"

"Yup. Let's go." I grab my phone and keys before we head downstairs.

"Should I ask about this?" JayJay gestures to everyone in my house when we reach the top of the stairs.

"I'll tell you later." I whisper as we head down the stairs. We almost make it to the door before Alpha Cohen stops me.

"Were are you going? We're leaving!" He says in his Alpha voice.

"We are leaving." I gesture to me and JayJay. "It's Wednesday so we have dinner with Kendrick and Misa."

"Alpha Kendrick and Luna Misa." He corrects me. "Have you lost all you're manners since being here?" He looks appalled at my informality.

"They asked me to call them that and because of the manners you thought me I have to go before I'm late for dinner." I say just as strongly as he did. "So if you'll excuse me." I push past him and out the front door to my buggy, JayJay close behind me.

We arrive at the Alphas house in record time thanks to my angry driving. I band harshly on the door and JayJay, bless him, didn't say anything in the drive over. Misa opens the door with open arms but her happy face drops as she sees me in my foul mood.

"What happened?" She asks as she leads us to the sitting area.

"He wants to take me away but I don't want to leave. This is home." I start babbling on about what happened earlier.

"Well that is a predicament you're in." She says after my story. "Kendrick come here, now!" She shouts into the house.

"Sorry, I had to make a call." Kendrick walks in while taking his work glasses off.

"Good. Now that everyone's here I have a question to ask." I stand and address the room. "Would you mind if I officially join this pack?"

"We we're going to ask you the same thing." Kendrick says and we all burst out laughing. "How about we do it tomorrow?"

"That sounds perfect. Thank you." I walk over to hug them both.

I stood outside my house door contemplating whether to go in or not. Decisions, decisions.

'What should we do?' I ask Carmela

'I think we should we should go for like a week and see what it's like there. Which ever pack we enjoy more, that's the one we stay in.' She wisely says.

'That sounds fair. You are very wise.' I praise her and cut off our link. I own the door and Alpha Cohen is ready and waiting to leave.

"Are you ready?" He asks me.

"No." I take control of the situation. "I'm happy here, I have a life here. I was even offered to be made a member of this pack. But I've grown up and need a new view of what my life would be like should I come back. So I will come with you. But see it as a trial period. After 1 week I will make my decision and all I ask of you is that you accept what I choose and if I choose to come back here you let me leave."

"Now that is a true leader." Gavin says and walks out to the landing strip. Alpha Cohen looks me dead in the eyes and smiles.

"That it does. You have yourself a deal." He says and offers his hand for me. I smile back and shake his hand.

"I need to make a call before we leave." I say and walk upstairs. I pick up the phone and dial the Alphas house landline.

"Misa speaking." I hear on the other line.

"Hi Misa. It's Nina. There's some business I need to take care off with Alpha Cohen. I should be back in a week if that's okay?" I say into my phone.

"Of course darling. Safe travels. Phone us when you land." She says

"Thank you. I will." I hang up the phone and say the same to JayJay and a couple of my other friends. I pack a few things in a bag and head downstairs.

"Hope you've said your goodbyes because you are so gonna stay with us." Kade says while taking my bag and helping me into the plane to make sure I actually get on this time. I take one last glance at what I'm leaving behind. I don't think Kade's right. I think this is home.
