The Alphas Little Dancer

Chapter Two- Home Sweet Home

Amelias POV 

Soft whispers break through my subconscious. God my head hurts so bad. 

I grunt lowly and try to open my eyes. Blinking a couple of times I realize that I’m in the pack hospital. I feel a gentle squeeze of my hand causing me to look over and see the handsome man from before. What’s his name again? 

“Jaxson” willow answers my question in a love dazed sigh. She’s swooning and now looking at him again I can see why. He’s beaming at us with a bright white smile his eyes are swimming with joy but a little worry. 

My heart monitor starts beeping quicker making me blush and look away from him while he gives me a slight chuckle. I pull the thing off my finger to make it stop because it was embarrassing. 

“How are you feeling Amelia?” He asks me suddenly; his voice deep but gentle. 

“You know my name?” I ask, how did he find it out?

“Yes after you passed out I made sure to ask. It’s beautiful just like you.” He said to me with an even bigger smile making me blush again. I don't blush! What is this?!

He is your mate babe, he will make you feel like this for the rest of your life. He will love you and cherish you no matter what. Willow said to me but she was wrong. He can’t love me, he deserves a mate who hasn’t been used so many times. Someone who isn’t so weak. I turn my eyes down, taking my hand out of his hold and I begin to pick at my nails. 

“Amelia....” he started to say but the door to my room opened just in time to stop him. In walked the pack doctor. The jackass who never reported the alpha for all of the s****l assault or the enslavement. He knew what the alpha did to me making me dance and if I didn’t the abuse that would follow. I was treated here at least once a week or more. But they never did anything. Pathetic. 

Glaring at him he looked at me “Oh good you are awake. How are you feeling?” He says with a little too much kindness in his voice. 

“I’m fine, what happened?” Spitting hatred with every word. 

“You had a panic attack due to all of the sudden stress that occurred. Everything seems to be ok at the moment and you should be able to leave once you are ready.” He still has a sweet smile plastered on his face but I know it’s just a show. It’s all a show for them when anyone outside of our pack visits. Everyone turns themselves into fake little obedient minions for the alphas appearance. 

“I would like to leave now.” As I start to get up and tear my IV out of my arm. Jaxson reaches to grab my arm but I pull it away. I look up at him and see the hurt on his face. 

“Sunshine, just slow down and give yourself a second. I don’t want you to hurt yourself more.”  With his hands up in surrender to show that he only wants to help. “Plus we need to talk about what you want to do... about us?” Saying the last part with a light breath. What does he mean about us? I looked at him with my eyebrows furrowed with confusion. 

Jaxson looks over my shoulder and I realize that the doctor is still standing there. Without saying a word he gives a look and nod telling the doctor to leave the room. Thank god. I heard the steps walk out the door before it shut softly. 

“Sit please baby, I don’t want you exhausting yourself.” He holds out a hand for me to take and walks me over to the edge of the bed. I do as he says and sit down. He sits right beside me making me feel warm and cozy on the inside.

 “So I need to know what you want. Anything I’ll make it happen but I will tell you that I want to take you home with me.” He says still not letting my hand go. He’s looking at our hands entwined together but I can’t help but stare at him in shock. He. Wants. Me. I thought he would reject me and go find a better mate. Or that the alpha wouldn't let me go and I would be forced to reject him. Is he really letting me choose for myself. No one has ever cared enough to ask me what I want. 

“Um...I.... I would like to go with you... if I can...” I stutter out still nervous but as I said that his face raises up to mine and the look of pure excitement makes me giggle a little. Wow it’s been a long time since I’ve laughed like that. It’s so innocent. 

He stood up with a blinding smile “Ok we will go once we grab your things. I had someone bring you some of your clothes to change into for now though.” Letting go of my hand he reaches toward the table in the corner of the room and grabs the clothes. Coming back towards me he sets them beside me and lingers in front of me for a minute then decides to lean down and kiss the top of my head before leaving the room for me to change. 

I run my fingers through my hair as the biggest smile won’t leave my lip. Getting up quickly I change into my pink short shorts that barley cover my butt, a black camisole and cheap black flip flops. Walking out of the hospital room quietly I see Jaxson leaning up against the hallway wall staring at his phone.

I cleared my throat to let him know I was standing there. He looked up smiling but that smile quickly turned into a frown. 

“Are those the only types of clothes you have?” He said with a dark menacing voice. 

 “Um...yeah....these are the only clothes alpha would buy me.” I said confused looking down at my outfit. I guess it does show a lot of skin. Way more than I liked but I really just got used to it. I’ve worn worse, like the yellow jeweled bikini he found me in. 

In pure annoyance he drug his hand down his face. He does not look happy. Shying away I take a step back, I don’t want him to be angry with me. This is all I have.

 Glancing up and noticing my nervous stance he gasped and reached his hand towards me. “Oh my sunshine, I’m not upset with you.” He says with worry in his voice now. “Its just....it’s...you just deserve better. You are a lady and deserve respect.” Now looking into my eyes trying to make me understand. 

     Relaxing a little I step forward again and let him grab my hands gently and pull me into a tight hug. “When we get home I promise you will have better things. You belong in silk and satin.”  He tells me softly while kissing the top of my head. This feels safe, it feels like home. 

.....

After leaving the pack hospital I left Jaxson in the large living room while I ran and packed the rest of my stuff. He didn’t like the idea but I knew if he came he would get even more upset. I walked to the room all the way at the end of the hall on the top floor. Opening up the door that led to a room about the size of a closet, actually I’m pretty sure it was a closet. I walked in assessing all I would need to take. How was I going to get this stuff out of here? It’s not like I have suitcases or anything. 

Deciding what I needed to do I ran downstairs and into the kitchen. Pulling out three trash bags I headed back up to my room and started shoving the little amount of items I had into them.  After all of my clothes were stuffed into one trash bag I went to grab the most important items. My mother’s single pearl necklace, my fathers wrist watch and the single picture I had of them from the day I was born. These things were the only three items I had left of them. I place them gently into the second trash bag. Looking around the room I actually realized two trash bags was all I needed.

Picking up my stuff I carry them down the stairs and to the living room where Jaxson is still sitting. He looks up at me with confusion while standing up. He takes the bags and guides me out the front door to the car waiting for us. A very handsome man steps out of drivers seat and strides towards me with a huge smile. 

“You must be our new Luna? I’m Mason, Jaxsons Beta and best friend.” He tells me with a light chuckle, while sweeping his hand through his hair. Mason is just as built as Jaxson but shorter. His brown hair and blue eyes compliment his lightly tanned skin. 

Drawing me out of my thoughts Jaxson punches mason on the arm hard but playfully. “She’s quiet man don’t go attacking her with your non stop chatter.” Jaxson says to him.

I bow my head in respect as I was taught “It’s nice to meet you Beta Mason. I’m Amelia.” I say quietly. 

They both start laughing though while mason looks at me “You can just call me mason, Luna. Please don’t bow to me either. You are my Luna, I should be bowing to you.” He says this time with a slight bow. I freeze where Im at. I’m not a Luna. I can’t be a Luna.

“I’m not a Luna.” I say under my breath casting my eyes down towards the dirt road. The light hearted conversation turned into a very quiet and awkward silence. 

“Um, how about we go and grab the rest of your stuff?” Jaxson says as he walked back towards the pack house.

“This is it.” I say to him confused before he reached the door. Jaxson stops in the middle of his stride still facing the house. He pinches the bridge of his nose in what looks like frustration and a anger. Standing up straight he huffs and turns towards me again but with a smile now.  

Walking to me he grabs my hands in a sweet gesture. “Ok sunshine, is there anyone you would like to say goodbye to?” 

I look down at our hands in each other’s “No, I don’t have anyone.” I say quickly in one breath. He nods the anger that was still fresh in his emotions coming back quickly but trying to control it. Keeping ahold of my hands he guides me to the back seat of the all black Tahoe. After Jaxson opened the door for me,  I get in and he closes the door behind me. They stand there for a moment talking and I could tell they were upset about something. 

Trying not to ease drop on there conversation though I look up to the pack house and see someone standing in the top story window. Alpha Carter is looking down at us with his arms crossed and body ridged. Causing me to shrink in my seat, I knew that look all too well.

Jaxson and Mason both finally get into the car distracting me from the alphas deathly stare. Mason gets into the drivers seat and Jaxson sits in the seat beside me. We head off to my new home. I wonder how they will treat me or if Alpha Jaxson will make me dance for his people too. Oh god, what if he treats me as bad as carter or worse.

 I glance over to look at him and notice he’s staring at me with concern. I quickly look away again but before anything was said he reached his hand over to hold mine. As he pulled my hand closer he placed soft kisses on my knuckles. Sending shivers down my spine. 

He can’t be anything like alpha Carter. He’s been so gentle and attentive. Wanting suddenly to be closer to him I unbuckle my seatbelt and scoot closer to him until I’m almost sitting on his lap. Resting my head on his chest I can hear his heart beat racing. I look up through my eye lashes to his face that is a mixture of nervousness and loving. 

Relaxing a little bit more I put my head back down and close my eyes. Before I know it I fall asleep to the sound of his steady heartbeat.
