     "Juliet!" I hear his voice ring out through the house. I freeze and cower into the couch. This isn't good, he's mad and he's going to take it out on me. 

     I see his come storming into the room and he is immediately in front of me, what he does next though is something I wasn't expecting. He pulls me into his arms and hugs me putting his face in my neck and letting himself calm down. "I won't let anyone get you, I will protect you." He says to me and I make a confused face. "That was your father on the phone, he wanted to know if I was tired of you yet." As he says this I tense up, is he going to give me back to my father? I don't want to go back there. I would much rather stay here with Jake. "Of course that could never happen, but I still feel like he won't ever give up." 

     He let's go of me and backs up, "I don't want to think of this right now let's go to sleep."

      He gets up and starts walking towards his bedroom I assume and I sit awkwardly on the couch watching him. He looks back at me, "Come on, I can't go to sleep if we arent in the same room."

     I get up and follow him, my hands wringing themselves together and my head looking down at the ground. When we reach his room he tells me I can get ready in the bathroom first and when I come out from there ready for bed he motions me to the bed.

     I am sitting straight up on the bed while he walks into the bathroom to get ready. When he walks out I am still sitting there with my stuff posture and down caste eyes. Jake looks at me and sighs, before taking his spot on the ground. Knowing coming up on the bed would make me too uncomfortable right now.
  
      I instantly feel bad for kicking him out of his own bed. He closes his eyes putting one arm behind his head. "Go to sleep Juliet. You're safe. Goodnight," he whispers softly to me and I decide to settle down into the bed.

     It's been hours since Alpha Jake fell asleep but I am still awake. Scared of nightmares and the all the monsters that can come to me in my sleep. With Jake around it seems to be better, but I can't rely on him and I dont feel like taking chances of seeing my father when I close my eyes. Especially now that I know he is after me again.

     I sigh thinking about when my father will finally get me again. I know there is no way to escape him and it's inevitable that I will once again be his slave. 

     I move to get off the bed and after I take my first step Jake is off the floor looking around. His eyes scanning me wildly. "What's wrong? Where are you going? Do you need something?" He asks in a hurry never taking a breath. I don't know what to do so I just point to the bathroom. He nods and I walk in their splash some water on my face to wake me up and keep me from falling asleep. 

     When I walk back into the room he is already back to sleep and I lay down in the bed and that's how I stay for the rest of the night. 

       The next morning when Alpha Jake finally wakes up he looks up over at me and smiles at first but then he frowns. "Juliet, are you okay? You still look really tired. Did you get any sleep?" I nod yes to his questions but it seems he can see right through me. He sighs and comes to sit next to me, I don't jump away but I do stiffen a little. He wraps his arm around my shoulders. "I had a feeling you weren't asleep last night. Try to rest, I'll be right here. I won't do anything and I won't let anyone get to you." 

     I shake my head no, but he just calmly starts running his hand up and down my arm and after a while the motion lulls me into sleep. 


A/N: Hey guys, I am having some pretty bad writers block with this book right now. I don't want to make really cliche and everything. So if you guys have any ideas please let me know. Thanks
