"Don't do that". She made a face. "You are friends but see it from her point of view. She doesn't want to shove it in your face which is why she's steering clear".
"So, she's really going to avoidfor 9 months? What's she going to do when the baby comes? Avoidcompletely? Unfriend me? Leave the pack?". "Wow". Alanna frowned.
"I said what I said. I'm going to wait outside". I slipped off the barstool and headed for the door. Hopefully, I wouldn't be waiting long.
"Leah wait a minute". She grabbed hold of my arm and I let her. "Lacey loves you like a sister, but this pregnancy is kicking her ass. Please see it from her point of view before you run off in a mood and overthink the worst". Alanna wasn't one for keeping her mouth shut. It's one of the things I loved about her the most. She said what everyone else was thinking and everyone needed a friend like that.
"Just tell her she doesn't need to avoid me. I'd love to be there for her through this. I'm going to wait outside for Jake".
She nodded her head over my shoulder. "He's just walked in".

She shrugged. "Does he ever?".
A laugh fell from my lips as I felt his hand on my waist. Turning in his embrace I smiled up at him.
"Hi".
"Hey baby". He bent down placing a kiss on my lips. "Good night?".
I nodded. "But I'm ready to go home".
"Givea sec I need to talk to Derek".
"Is everything okay?".
"Nothing for you to worry about". He kissed the top of my head before by passingand making his way to the end of the bar where Derek had a beer already waiting for him. "Everything good?". Alanna asked.
"I think he's up to something". I took my seat at the bar and waited patiently for him to finish up.
"Because he's talking to Derek?". She frowned.
I nodded.
"Derek runs this side of town. They're probably just catching up as they don't see each other often. I wouldn't worry about it".
"I'm not worried about anything I just hate that he continues to keepin the dark".
"Leah". She sighed. "Just because they're talking doesn't mean anything has happened. You need to chill out".
I couldn't because this was the way my brain worked. I couldn't just switch it off. I was already an anxious overthinker. I worried constantly. It was exhausting really.

"Yeah". She nodded.
"How cthey're not pack?".
"They are pack they just prefer the normal life". The content is on novelenglish.net! "Normal life?".
"They're only called for when they're needed".
"Oh, okay".
"Pack life isn't for everyone, and my dad has no issue with people that want to live a more normal life, They check in every so often but it's mandatory to attend a pack meeting once a month". "Huh, pack meetings happen once a month?". I think I'd been to one the whole tI had been here. "Yeah, at the end of every month".
"And it's mandatory?". I asked.
"It's not mandatory for you". He placed his hand on the tower of my back Ashburn X
