"Nothing is decided yet and it's notmy decision. I'm not Alpha just yet Leah. This is all down to my dad".

"Why didn't you tell me?". Iwhispered."Why did I have to find out from Alanna?”.

"Because I knew this is how you'dhave reacted".

"So, you thought lying to me wasbetter?".

"I didn't want to upset you andtechnically I didn't lie. I would never do anything to hurt you".

“Right”. I was done with thisconversation. He might not have lied but he didn't exactly tell me the truth either. "I have to go inside"."Please don't do this". He begged.

"I'm not doing anything. I'm going togo inside and graduate and then I'm going to leave".

"Leave?".

"I'm going to visit my dad for a fewdays".

"What?". He frowned."When was thisdecided?".

"I don't have to run everything by youJake and besides, I think I need this".

"You're carrying my child Leah and ifyou think I'm going to let you leave when you're this upset you can think again".

"Good job it's not up to you then isn'tit". I headed inside and found my seat.I cried the full ceremony. I cried collecting my diploma,I cried through the class president's speech. I was a mess by the time we threw our hats in the air. I couldn't stop. Everything had got to me, and it felt like I had the weight of the world on my shoulders.

"You did it". Lana squealed."I'm soproud that one of us finished high school". As she hugged me another wave of sadness hit, and a sob fell from my lips. I hugged her tighter.

"Hey". She whispered pulling back."Want me to get Jake?".

She didn't have to I was pulled from her grasp and wrapped up in his arms. Of course,I felt better instantly. I sometimes hated that part of the bond. I didn't want him to make me feel better. I wanted to be ma d and upset with him."I'm taking you home".

"No". I shoved on his chest."I have togo".

"No baby I'm taking you home whereyou belong".

The full ride home we sat in silence. He knew how upset I was, I know he could feel every emotion I was feeling. When we reached home,I didn't move. He had to understand that I was still going to see my dad. My dad didn't know it yet but I'm sure he wouldn't turn me away.

"I'll do everything in my power tomake sure she doesn't come back".

It wasn't just about Jessica. I was more upset because he didn't tell me what was going on. How could Ibecome Luna if he was keeping things from me. I shouldn't have to find out last or from anyone else.

"I'm still going to see my dad. I wantto meet my family".

"Then let me come with you".

"Aren't you needed here?".
