Ruthless Runt: Joker

C H A P T E R : S I X

"Where would Elijah be?" I muttered, wandering around the pack house. "Hey Luna."

Laney jumped and turned to face me.

"Oh goodness Alpha Joker I didn't see you there. What can I do for you?"

"Do you know where Elijah is?"

"Elijah? He should be..." she paused for a second looking around the room thoughtfully. "Training grounds. Just outside and to the right."

"Thanks Luna." I waved as I left.

Oh my goodness yes, just imagine him with his shirt off. His abs glistening in the sun.

He's not Edward Cullen you weirdo.

Sweating then. His muscles tensing mm, yummy. I'm definitely going to lick him.

No you aren't.

I said talk to him! Talk!

Talking does not involve licking.

It does in my world.

Woah okay, you were right, he glistens.

I watched Elijah manoeuvre around his opponent, shirt off (thank you Moon Goddess), and muscles flexing. His eyes wandered over to me for a second and his opponent took the opportunity to pounce on his back, essentially making Elijah piggy back him.

"Hey Elijah." I smiled shyly.

"Alpha Joker, hi. Did you need something?"

"I just wanted to talk." I kicked the dirt lightly whilst Elijah's opponent walked off to find another sparring partner.

"About what?"

"About...us." I looked down at my feet, watching as the dirt flew away.

I don't think he wants to talk...

It's okay Master J. I gotchu.
Follow what I say.
'Let's start over; hi I'm Alpha Joker, not Jeremy, and I like your abs. May I lick them?'

What I'm not saying that!

I felt my face burst into different shades of red.

"Alpha? Are you okay? You're turning red."

"Y-Yeah I'm great. Okay bye!" I squeaked turning around.

Elijah grabbed my wrist and pulled me towards him.

"I thought you wanted to talk?"

"Ah yes." I cleared my throat. "What do you say we start over?"

"What do you mean?"

I cleared my throat again.

"Hi, I'm Alpha Joker." I held my hand out.

"I'm Elijah." I shook his hand.

"Okay. Yeah, that's all." I backed away slowly. "I'll just be going now."

"No! I mean, I have free time now. Lets hang out."

Why are you so awkward?

I don't know! I can't help it!

"So, you're the Alpha huh?" Elijah walked beside me, his hand brushing against mine every now and then.

"Yeah...Does that... Does that bother you?"

"No, it's just... we're in different packs. I don't know what will happen."

"You can join mine if you want Elijah."

"I'm in charge of all the warriors though. I don't think the Alpha will let me go that easily."

"I'll ask him to." I wrapped my pinky around his. "Only if you want to though."

"If I get to spend more time with you, I would be happy with anything." Elijah let go of my pinky and wrapped his arm around my shoulders.

"Are you sure about changing packs though? I-I mean of course I want you to join mine but you'll be leaving this behind and...and I'm the Alpha. Look at me, I'm not exactly big and scary."

"But you're small, feisty and absolutely perfect." Elijah kissed my forehead and I blushed.

"O-Okay. I-I'll talk to Alpha Mark about it."

"You know, you could've stayed in my room right? You didn't have to have a whole other house."

"Wh-What! Evans wouldn't let me!"

Elijah growled softly. "What does Evans have to do with you being in my bedroom?"

"Evans is my best friend who is like a dad. He took care of me when I was younger."

"It doesn't matter. You're sleeping in my bed tonight. Don't worry baby, I won't do anything you don't want me to."
