The human and her alpha

Scotland

Rachael

"Fine, I’ll come home with you" i say to my dad, I go to my room. Guess I need to pack, as I walk into my room i looks at my mum’s bedroom door and tears fill my eyes again.

I grab my suitcase and start throwing stuff in it. I packs some clothes and grab my toiletry bag, I grab my phone charger, laptop and a few framed pictures of me and my mum. As I finish packing, my dad comes in,

"It’s changed a lot since I was last in here" he smiles softly at her

"Yeah well I’m not a little girl anymore" I grab my hair dryer and a few bits from the vanity "Right I’m done"

I look at him, he smiles and grabs my suitcase. I follows him downstairs i notice two men standing at the front door. Both are extremely tall and gorgeous. The one on the left has piercing blue eyes and sandy brown hair, a little bit of stubble on his chin and cheeks which just adds to his sexiness. You can tell he works out cause his shoulders are as wide as the door. The guy on the right is smaller in build but still large, handsome and clean shaven with electric green eyes with a hint of brown around the edges. They’re both in black jeans and t-shirts which stretch over their chests. I look at my dad but he doesn’t say anything about the strange men in the doorway, he looks at them and nods. With that nod, one grabs my suitcase from my dad and they both leave the house.

"Who were they?" he looks through the door and then back at me

"They were just some family, you’ll meet them later when we get home." He claps his hands together and smiles at me "so have you got everything?"

"Just need to grab my phone and purse" I walk over to the table where i left my phone and purse. I grabs them along with my keys and walk out the front door. I looks back at the house as my dad walks out and shuts the door behind me "bye house" i sigh and lock the door.

He guides me to the pavement where a black land rover is waiting with one of the men in, my dad opens the door for me and I try and hop in. With me only being 5ft 2 I struggle, so he has to give me a little help. I slide over to the other side. He shuts the door behind me and gets in the passenger side

"I suppose I should have asked this before but where is home?" I catch a small glance between the two men in the car

“Scotland” he dad replies

"Scotland?!" She screams from the back seat "you’re kidding me? You live in Scotland. That’s like 5 hours away. I thought you lived nearby?" I regret my decision now. i thought he lived close by and I’d still be able to live my life see my friends, keep my job. "Take me back, I cannot go to Scotland." I protest undoing my seat belt, my dad turns in his seat and faces me

"Sorry RayRay but this is happening, I’m not letting you go now."  I hear a click, and I know he’s locked all the doors. I glare at him from the back seat and grumble under my breath. i don’t speak to him the whole drive, at some point i must have fallen asleep as the next think i remembers is being carried into a big house. There was lots of noise, people talking plates clattering, cutlery scraping but i couldn’t keep her eyes open.

When I woke up I’m in a strange bed, its comfy and warm thought so I won’t complain. i hear shuffling outside the door. I look around the room and it’s big. I climb out of bed and explore the room, I open one door to find a massive bathroom with double walk in shower and a bathtub the size of a small swimming pool. It’s well stocked. I close the door and open another door, i find a walk-in closet that is also stocked with a large amount of clothes. There’s dresses and jeans and coats and shoes and bags everything a girl could ever want. I take a close look and notice all of the clothes have tags on them and they’re all my size. As i go through the closet there’s a knock at the door. i go answer the door and a young girl about 10 smiles at me

"Hi. I’m Arabella. I’m your sister" the young girl throws herself at me and squeezes me into a tight hug, i don’t know what to do so I just hug her back

"Erm... nice to meet you" I smile

"Dad sent me up here to get you for breakfast" Arabella grabs my hand and drags me downstairs. For a small girl she’s incredibly strong.

As i go downstairs the noises get louder, there’s a lot of talking and seems to be a lot of people where they are going. Arabella is still dragging me, she drags me into a large dining room and the whole room turns silent. Everyone turns to look at me.

"Well this is awkward" crap did I just say that out loud, i smiles at everyone "Erm...hi" i give a small wave. Dad gets up from his chair and comes to great me. He gives me a bear hug

"Come on ill introduce you to everyone" he drags me further into the room. First, he stops at a beautiful woman with long dark brown hair and golden-brown eyes, her olive skin is flawless.

"This is my wife DeeDee, DeeDee this is Rachael" he says proudly Deedee gets up from her chair and hugs me warmly

"It’s so great to meet you, your even more beautiful than how your father described you" I just smile at her

"Thanks you" I whisper, feeling my face heat up. My throat is slowly drying up with everyone still staring at me. He makes me sit next to DeeDee and introduces me to the rest of the family

"So there is your brother Carl" he points to a guy sat next to DeeDee he has the same features as DeeDee but the same eyes as me and my dad. He smiles at me warmly

"hi" he says with a mouthful of pancakes.

"Next to him we have Anna, she’s carls mate" she is just as beautiful as DeeDee but had milky white skin and dark red hair with the tiniest of freckles on her nose and cheeks. Her eyes were forest green colour and held so much warmth in them. She smiles at me and I wave

"Then we have DeeDee’s brother Liam and his wife jenny and they’re 2 kids Gemma and ben. Next is Matt. You’ve met the boys Shane and Ethan and then there’s your little sister Arabella who you’ve already met." Everyone smiles warmly at me as I say hi to everyone. Dad sits down next to her "hope your hungry cause we got a lot of food" he claps his hands together and everyone starts piling on the food, I looks around the room at everyone, I don't have much of an appetite but i grab a pancake. They smell delicious, i smother it in syrup and start to eat it. As i sit there, people chat amongst themselves i don't really join in the conversation. I finish my pancake and push my plate away. Dad looks at me,

“you need to eat more than that RayRay” everyone looks at me and I feel my face heat up again. I’ve never had this much attention before,

“Not really that hungry” I shrug at him; he huffs at me but doesn't respond “can I be excused?” i don't know why I’m asking but i feel like it's the right thing to do

“sure, I’ll have Matt bring you to my office in an hour” he goes back to eating his food and talking to DeeDee, i get up glance at Matt who smiles at me as i leave. I walk back up to the bedroom I was in, I shut the door and sit on the edge of the bed. Tears start rolling down my cheeks “what am I doing here” I whisper to myself, i wipe my face and go to the bathroom. I look at my reflection, i look a mess. Puffy red eyes with black circles around them, my skin is grey and hadn’t seen the sun in weeks. i looks at the huge bath tub and think “why not” i turn the taps on, pour some bath salts in and some bubble bath. i leave the taps running and go to get my phone from the nightstand. 12 messages, i scroll through the messages it’s just people hoping I’m ok and telling me they’re here if i need them, i just ignore them. i opens a group chat with my two friends Kate and Beth

‘hey guys, just to let you know. I’m in Scotland… With my dad. I’m staying here for a while with him and his family’

i hits send and walk into the bathroom. The bath is ready now I turn the taps offjust as my phone starts going off with messages

‘WHAT?!’ Kate

‘OMG, when did this happen, are you ok?’ Beth

‘I know, it’s crazy. He just showed up yesterday out of the blue and told me he would explain everything but I had to come home with him, when he said home I thought he meant like Sheffield or Barnsley not fricking Scotland. He doesn't even have accent!’

‘Rach this is crazy, how are you feeling about all this?’ Beth

‘what’s it like up there?’ Kate

I strip my clothes off and climb into the bath letting the hot water soothe my muscles I didn't realise how tense I'd been

‘IDK, I haven’t really spent any time with him yet. I met my step mum and brother and sister. That was a shock. I haven’t been outside of the house yet, currently sat in the biggest bubble bath of my life’

‘you need to send us pictures ASAP’ Kate

‘just make sure you relax and take care of yourself Rach and find out when we can come visit. We haven’t seen you since the funeral and we miss you’ Beth

‘don't worry guys, I’m fine. I will send pictures later. My dad wants to see me soon so hopefully he’ll show me around. You will love it here Kate all the men I’ve seen so far are gorgeous, so gorgeous it hurt my eyes’

I laugh to myself and put my phone on the floor next to the bath, i lay back in the bath and just lets the water calm me while I hum along to the music my phone is playing.
