Chapter 23: Chapter 23

My phone's alarm kept on ringing, and lazily I buried my head down the pillow.

I was too tired to reach for my phone to turn it off.

Suddenly the ringing went off, and I felt something sting my arm, making me wince. I woke up in alarm rubbing my arm in pain.

My eyes were now fully open, and my grandma stood there beside my bed with her bamboo massager back scratcher stick and a phone in her other hand.

"Grandma."

I cry out, rubbing my arm, she is talking on the phone which is on the loudspeaker, and the tone of the person on the phone isn't welcoming. Of course, it was my mother, shouting over the phone, not towards my grandma but me.

Calling out every punishment she would do to me for stealing my dad's car and driving without a license.

So practically after Matteo helped me with the guard last night, I came straight to my grandmother's house. She wasn't here, but since I know where she usually keeps the key when I was young, I try my luck, and it worked.

My grandmother didn't know the time, I came home as she wasn't at home, but she knew I was coming.

"Grandma," I pouted, "don't grandma me," she raised her voice, making me flinch.

Turning off the phone, "I love you, grandma," I went up, hugging her. "You liar," she tries to push me away, but I hug her tight.

"Best grandma ever," she hugs me back. "You have grown up, and I am impressed, you're more like your father except for the hair and attitude," she smiles.

"It's been such a long time," I could see her tears about to fall, and I hug her tightly.

"Awww, grandma," I gush, "you know if I have a license, I won't miss coming here to see you," she nodded her head.

"Youngsters nowadays, you should use your legs to get here. Don't you have a werewolf gift?"

"You mean the rogues or hunters might kill me before I get here."

Her eyes roll up, "young lady, you need to be brave, now get yourself clean and be downstairs for breakfast. We have a lot to do today," I groan at that.

Stumbling my way down after the shower. I saw my grandma by the dining table with food already spread out on the table.

"Hmm, I miss your cooking," I quickly run towards her hugging her from the back.

"Oh silly, now settle down and eat."

I sat down smiling, then took in the most delicious smell of different food before devouring it.

"Oh dear grandma, you should have warned me, now I'm getting fat," I said, rubbing my full stomach.

My grandma whacks me at the back of my head "Grandma."

"So what if you get fat, eat and live is most important here in my home. Size doesn't matter, dear, you need to appreciate whatever body you have," I sigh.

"I was just kidding."

"You better be kid."

My grandma is one typical woman, don't even complain about your face, body weight, height, or hair in front of her. She would give you one hell of a lecture on your life.

Trust me, when I was young, this kid pulls my hair and says it was ugly. So I went home and told my grandma, and you wouldn't believe what she did.

She lectures a seven-year-old kid on the basics of life, and then drags me to the kid's house and points him out in front of his mother, then gave him a warning.

I helped her clean up the table and the dishes. After I was done and was about to sit on the couch to relax. My grandma told me to move some stuff she packs in the basement.

She directed me to a room down the hallway, and what got me a frown was the pile of boxes and blankets.

"Grandma," I shouted back the hallway, my voice echoing throughout the house, and she replies, "don't grandma me."

After moving unwanted things in the basement. I rested upon a window wiping my sweat. I swear if I wasn't a werewolf, I don't think I'll be able to move everything.

I take a look outside, my eyes moving up to see our neighbor’s house, and I went oooh when my eyes rest on a window.

Oh my! I shouldn't have seen it, but damn my eyes met with abs. If this is an onset scene of werewolf neighbors falling for the guy next door, then I would say this is the perfect moment to capture the scene.

If only the directors and the crew are present, then I would have been the actress, as the scene is remarkable.

Luckily I am not seeing anything else except those abs, and I am grateful he can't see me.

"Perv," Alera calls me out, but Nah it wasn't my fault that I am seeing it.

"Adassah," my grandma called me from the stairs, and I quickly got up and ran out of there.

"Yes, grandmama."

I jog over to her and only to be met with a visitor in the house. He was quite handsome, his dirty blonde hair neatly in a modern comb haircut, and he was quite tall.

"Adassah, please meet our Alpha Aaron Reed," he extends his hand, and I shook it in return.

"He also lives next door," she says, walking back to the kitchen, leaving me alone with the handsome Alpha.

It was weird, we were both silent, and he didn't seem like the type of guy who likes to converse with anyone.

"Adassah," my grandma came back from the kitchen with a pie in her hand, breaking the silence in the room.

"Please take this next door, and also invite him over for lunch," I became confused since the Alpha is here, then why would I need to bring this over.

She pushes me towards the door, and in the next minute, I was in front of the porch ringing the doorbell. I almost ran out of patience when it finally opens, and oh, those familiar abs again.

My grandma's neighbors are so hot yet... No way!

I scream through my links with Alera licking her lips seductively.
