It was cold outside as I stepped out of the car that Jeremy was still in. He had driven me over to Erik's house for the dinner that I was going to attend. Before getting out of the car Jeremy had decided to give me the whole 'Tell me if anyone's being a jerk and I will beat them up' speech. It really wasn't necessary, since I didn't spend time with people who were being jerks, but i guess that he thought that it was his duty as an older sibling.
I would, however have liked to have him at my back as I walked up to the massive house that the alpha family lived in. I had been nervous the whole night, of course I would have been, I was going to have dinner with my boyfriend and his family, who wouldn't be nervous?
I took three steps up on the porch, but couldn't bring myself to knock on the door. Instead, I decided to text Erik so that he would let me in. It only took a few seconds for the door to be opened and there stood Erik, grinning at me.
"Hi, sweetie." He greeted me.
