Once Rejected My Alpha Stepbrother Wants Me Back Chapter 55

Chapter 55 

Josie’s POV. 

Surprisingly, I stab my fingers into the oak desk as I gnaw my lips. The words I heard just now are grating my inside 

How? How on earth is Ashton going on a blind date? Hell, I never knew him as one interested in such things. 

The whirling thoughts grow my curiosity and suddenly I want to find out more about this rumor of Ashton’s date. 

On cue, I hear the janitors‘ voices slipping into my office again. 

“I even heard he has been to more than three dates.” The first voice says. 

The admission makes startled gasp to leave my lips. 

I suddenly feel insecure. I know Ashton. He’s a playboy who loves to stick his rod in any hole. 

Who knows if he has slept with those blind dates of his? I ask myself, gnawing my lips, I almost draw blood. 

The mock voice of my wolf comes in. 

Even if he does, it’s 

none of your business, isn’t it?‘ 

slam my hand over my temple as my heart roars. 

Of course, it’s not a business of mine.‘ I rattle off. Truthfully, the words doesn’t convince me enough. 

he bitter taste of the lie I spilled just now lingers on my tongue. 

ww, but why is your heart beating up like you’re in an oven?‘ Her voice comes in again. 

ook, I’m not feeling anything, okay? I was just surprised.‘ I blubber, 

ell, then you might need to stop scraping your fingers over the desk. It’s screeching annoyingly in my ears… er words make me realize how my fingers are cutting through the wood. Not my fingers exactly, but my claws. 

hen I projected them out, I don’t know, so I quickly rein in the burst of emotions and allow my claws to go back

I release a long string of breath. Seriously? Am I supposed to be…worried about Ashton’s daily, social life? 

Huh…I have Diego I should be worried about. And our relationship is beginning to find a sound footing. 

At my inward pep talk, my wolf scoffs. 

‘Keep lying to yourself.‘ She says as I sink back into the chair. 

That instant, I hear those voices from outside again. 

“Why is he going on a blind date?” One asks. 

“What else if not finding the right Luna for the Yellow Rivers pack?” 

Oh, I abruptly imagine Ashton with another woman in his arms as his Luna. Trust me. The thought is damn bitter. 

shove it away, aiming to get busy once again when Tessa’s call comes in. 

My bad. I forgot I fixed an appointment with her. 

Hey, girl.” I chirp.

Rose, don’t fucking tell me you plan to keep me here alone for insane hours!” 

spring to my feet immediately and start gathering my things. 

‘m sorry, you’ll see me there in a jiffy.” I rattle off, running out of my office.

Chapter 55 

Every day at the hospital, one strange woman would come looking for me at my break time, saying that Dane 

connected her to me. 

Yeah, one actually happened in the foyer and literally everyone was there when the lady came. 

That created a backdrop for the news spreading in my hospital that I’m going on blind dates. 

Once I set eyes on those ladies, knowing they’ve sacrificed their time, I just can’t quite ditch them. 

I comply and take them out with me. I always give them the right the pick their location. 

Well, among all the women I’ve gone out with since this blind date flasco, the woman I’m leaving with today seems more gregarious with added beauty. 

‘Eww, she can’t beat Josie’s beauty you know?‘ my lycan hums, pacing lazily inside me. 

I agree to his words as I key into the ignition and roll away from the hospital. 

We went to a nearby park she chose and strolled around. 

She talks my ears off about how she loves staying in parks, not to read or anything but to watch the couples that usually spend time there. 

She thinks it helps to solidify her imagination of what her love life will be. That makes me recoil on the inside because truthfully, I’m so not going to be serious with her. Or anyone coming to me for this blind date shit. 

She takes me by the hand and I let her, then she guides me to the ice cream stand some feet away from us. 

To my surprise, she orders more ice cream than a child would ever. 

It was at that instant that I gave her a clear once–over. Hell, she’s plus–size. Not the kind of lady I want. Desire. 

‘I knew just that.‘ My lycan chirps, mocking me. 

Immediately after licking the ice cream and wiping the corners of her mouth, she turns to me with a tiny, lingering smile. 

Then, “I’m a fan of hazelnut latte. Can we go get one at the café? And there you can tell me about yourself.” 

Great! Just great! 

My blind date still doesn’t

know even a thing about me. 

“Cause she doesn’t care!‘ comes that annoying voice of my lycan. 

Nodding my yes to my blind date, we begin walking down the street, Curious eyes linger on us as we take down the street, heading to the café. 

It’s obvious why. People didn’t expect to see the popular doctor and alpha walking down the road like this. 

I pass greetings to whoever I can and focus ahead. In a matter of minutes, we arrive at the teeming café. 

With a sweeping look around, I find an empty spot in the corner outside the café and under the canopy. It gives a panoramic view of the beautiful street. 

The hum of discussions, clicking of cameras, ding of bicycles, and low honk of cars add to the splendid atmosphere of the outside terrace of the café. 

“Over, there.” She points to the same spot my eyes catch on and smiles. 

Before I know it, she drags me along, weaving through the seated bodies of the cafe’s customers so we can reach the seats.

And we reach the seats quickly. 

My unknown blind date sinks into the chair as I’m about to do my, my nose catches the distinct scent of 

lavender. 

My lycan puckers up quickly as the familiar name dribbles from his mouth. 

“Josie…” my lycan paces, prowls, and bites out. “She’s here.”
