My Hot Alpha

I shook my head. "I told them to sort their shit out and that I wasn't getting involved".

"Good girl. Do you want to go out for dinner?".

I shook my head. "I can't be bothered anymore". I also wasn't in the mood for going out now. A yawn escaped my mouth. "But if you want to go out, we can".

"I'm going to run you a bath and order Chinese food. We can find a film and settle on the couch. Sound good?".

I nodded.

Fat chance I would be able to stay awake, but I'd at least try. I couldn't get over how tired I was. I had no energy for anything. I prayed my full pregnancy wouldn't be like this.

Jake ran me a bath while I lay on our bed scrolling through Facebook. Nothing interesting, nothing exciting until I received a private message from my dad.

He wanted to know if I was up for grabbing coffee tomorrow.

That I could do. I was ready. Our first meeting may have not been how I planned for it to go but it happened. This time around I could think about what I wanted to say. In all honesty I just wanted a relationship with him. I had family out there that I didn't know.

All this time it wasn't just me and my gran.

I was staring at the message when another came through.

'If you're not ready I completely understand. I will wait until you are'

I was ready now. I messaged him back letting him know I could meet around lunch time. I picked the Starbucks in the mall.

"Baths ready".

"I'm meeting my dad for coffee tomorrow". I spoke.

"What?".

"He messaged me on Facebook so I'm meeting him at Starbucks around lunchtime".

"Do you want me to come?". He asked.

I shook my head. "This is something I can do on my own". It was something I had to do on my own. I had to do this my way and as much as I love Jake and his support, I didn't want him there.

"I can drop you off and hang around until you're done".

"I appreciate the offer, but I can drive myself".

"I don't want you going alone. Not in your condition".

I rolled my eyes. Was he serious? I was pregnant I wasn't dying.

"Don't roll your eyes Leah. You're carrying my pup in there. I have to keep the both of you safe".

I chewed the inside of my cheek as I let out a deep breath. "I'm going to meet my dad for coffee tomorrow and I'm doing it alone. You may not like the idea of it but it's something I have to do. Now are we going to argue about it or are you going to let me take my bath?".

I could tell he wanted to argue, his top lip pulled back into a snarl. He was holding back, and he was holding back because I was pregnant. The last thing I wanted was to fight about it.

"I'll drop you off and pick you up. Final offer".

I made a face. Final offer? What?

"You think I was overprotective before. You haven't seen nothing yet babe".

Was he really wanting to fight with me about this? It was a simple drive to the mall and back.
