RedBrownieHello! If you previously read Chapter 13 before 9/27/24 then please go back and read it again because it has drastically changed. I accidentally uploaded chapter 14 in place of chapter 13. It has been fixed and displays the correct chapter content now. Thank you for your patience.

โCarter.โ My voice sounded out, more breathless than I intended.Carter met my gaze with a look of longing and torment. He walked in carefully, almost as if scared he would spook me.โPaisley.โ His rough voice croaked out.I looked over at Jules and she assessed Carter warily. โNeed me to call Joey?โ She asked. I was confused at what she meant but couldnโt focus on her question, so instead I shook my head. โIโm going to head outside for a minute.โ I headed through the front door and knew Carter was following right behind me from the hair on the back of my neck standing on end. Everything about his being felt like a magnet to my skin. And after three days of the lack of his touch- I could feel myself relapsing hard for the drug that was Carter Lockwood.โDid you need something?โ I looked out at the road, wrapping my arms around myself when a chill breeze moved in and gave me goosebumps. Within seconds, I felt a warm weight around my shoulders and looked back at Carter to see he had gi

Carter and I didnโt speak until we got into his truck. The rich leather scent was almost masked by Carterโs masculine one and it instantly made me feel safer and more calm. Carter was breathing heavily, his canines were still poking out of his lip, his eyes still golden. At least the fur sprouting on the back of his neck had ceased but it seemed Carter was on the very edge of losing control. By pure instinct alone, I grabbed his hand and brought it to my chest, placing it right over my heart as I took deep exaggerated breaths.โBreathe with me, Carter.โ I demonstrated once more. His face stayed forward but he side eyed me and attempted to copy my breathing.It took several minutes but eventually his body seemed to release its tension. When this happened, Carter closed his eyes and sighed, keeping his hand on my heart. โYou knowโฆโ he whispered breathlessly. โIf I move my hand down slightly Iโll be grabbing your breast.โHe and I both chuckled, the tension shattering like glass.

As Carter drove, my thoughts drifted back to what he said earlier about the RIH. He had said that wolves didnโt tread into that part of town because of how they were treated in that area. Did Paisley know that? From what Paisleyโs mother had said, she hated wolves- but did that make her a part of the RIH? Not wanting to jump to conclusions, I thought about what that could mean for Paisley, and especially for me stuck in Paisleyโs body at the moment. Paisley was the mate of a wolf, yet hated wolves enough to be a part of a hate organization? What kind of drug was the Moon Goddess smoking when she paired them together? On another note, Paisleyโs mother was going to be furious with me when she found out that I not only didnโt keep my promise to stay away from Carter, but also managed to lose Paisleyโs job in less than an hour.All in a dayโs work for the life of a demon, I suppose. I tried not to let the guilt eat me as I rethought my entire interaction at Baneโs. Perhaps I should have

Somehow within the span of five minutes Carter managed to get me a job as a Preschool Teacher partnered with Gloria. Personally, I was surprised she accepted me so easily without a resume, background check, etc. Although, you couldn't necessarily turn down a personal recommendation from the Beta himself. Especially one as charismatic as he is. Now Carter and I were back in the truck after spending another half hour with the kids who turned out to be really sweet. I was immediately accepted into their group and they all wanted to take turns having me hold them and giving them hugs. One of the boys even made me a stick figure picture of myself. It was what I was currently looking at now.โYou know, it looks so much like you, itโs uncanny.โ He teased me.โOh yea. Sure.โ I sarcastically replied. โWith my big lips, and arms longer than my legs.โ I pointed to the stick figureโs odd body proportions. โWhat a looker.โโHey.โ He grumbled and took the picture from me. โThatโs my girl youโre ta

โWe canโt keep doing this Carter.โ I groaned, putting my head in my hands.โI know.โ Carter sighed next to me and put the car in drive.I deflated internally. It was hard enough trying to deal with Carterโs advances but with the sudden realization I made, it was that much harder to achieve my goal of keeping up the Paisley facade until she returned.โI canโt be with you Carter, you have to understand that.โโI do, Paisley.โ His voice turned into a soft grumble.โWhy is it so hard for us to just keep our hands off of each other?โ I muttered to myself, my frustration leaking out from so many emotional sources. โMaybe because weโre not meant to stay away from each other?โ He sarcastically replied.I glared at him through the side of my eye. โYou said you understood that we couldn't be together.โ I grit my teeth, trying to hold down my lustful energy turned anger. โI said I understood, not that I liked it.โ He scoffed.โWell-โ I hugged. โIf we canโt keep our hands to ourselves, then ma

โThereโs something important I need to ask.โ Carter whispered softly in my ear. His breath tickled it ever so slightly causing goosebumps to rise.โWhat is it?โ I murmured, keeping my eyes down at my burger. Carter leaned impossibly closer, enough that I had to inch back just to keep some personal space.โAre you avoiding me?โ Carterโs eyes glinted with mischief and challenge.I cleared my throat and shrugged. โJust busy with work- you know, the job that you got for me?โ The frustration was starting to build inside me and I had to clench my teeth to keep it down. โSo youโre avoiding me.โ Carter quirked a brow, popping a french fry in his mouth. โI just said-โ I stopped myself and groaned, scratching at my scalp. โAre you trying to be annoying?โ โI donโt know, is it working?โ He smirked.I huffed and turned back to my food. The sexual frustration this man caused me was absolutely unreal. โJust leave me to my meal in peace.โ I rolled my eyes.โIโm glad youโre enjoying it, at least.

โCarter!โ A cheery voice shouted.I looked over to see Luna Grace leaving a room in the packhouse and she immediately started closing the distance between them, but stopped when she noticed me.โOh! Dear me, are you in a meeting? Did I interrupt?โ She glanced at Carter and me curiously, however something about her gaze seemed a littleโฆ โNot at all Grace, just spending some time with my mate.โ Carter flashed a beaming smile, one that would send any woman to their knees however after spending a little time with the real Carter, I easily recognized his false polite mask. It was a good one, Iโll give him that, but the real question was- why was Carter Lockwood, the second lead of the book series giving his supposed best friend and cousinโs mate a polite smile mask? Werenโt they closer than that?โOh. Oh! Thatโs right! You found your mate!โ Luna Grace looked between me and Carter as if seeing us together was the cutest thing.

I was overthinking it. I knew I was overthinking it.Yet, I couldnโt stop pacing and I couldnโt stop changing my outfit. โItโs just a stupid dinner.โ I muttered to myself for probably the tenth time in the last hour. My heart pounded erratically as I quickly unzipped the dress of the latest attempt at picking an outfit. I needed an outfit that was nice enough to show that I belonged in a group of high ranking wolves from different packs, yet something that didnโt stand out too hard. I had enough troubles so standing out was not what I needed at the moment.I also needed an outfit that was flattering for me yet wouldn't give Carter the wrong idea. The last thing I needed was Carter thinking I changed my mind about us and seducing me at dinner again. And if I wore a dress, there would be less articles of clothing as a barrier between us. I knew myself well enough to know now that if he touched my bare skin Iโd turn to mush.I was basically pudding in his hands, and he knew it.And th

They say that when your body is under extreme distress, it triggers one of two reactions: Fight, and attack your opponent with either physical or intellectual strength; or Flight, and flee your opponent with terrifying speed fueled by adrenaline. What people donโt realize is that there is a third reaction when your body is under extreme distress, one that is not acknowledged as heavily as the others, and that is Freeze. Freeze locks your body into place or perhaps takes away your power to move your limbs. Everything is frozen in your entire body- except your mind. Your mind is racing with unparalleled thoughts far too fast to place any action in them. Youโre simply helpless to the orchestrations of your mind and imprisoned by your body. You cannot move, speak, or even blink, yet your mind is screaming for you to do so and punishes you with thousands of synaptic thoughts pulsating your brain, frying it from the inside.I unfortunately belonged to this group.โWhat did you say?โ Carte

My body was utterly exhausted, yet I had never felt better. It was a long night of passion, more than I had ever experienced in my life, yet he never penetrated me. Carter spent hours thoroughly โtaking care of meโ as he called it, with half of it being on his kitchen table. Every time I tried to reciprocate his touches, his passion- he would simply grab my wrist and start kissing my palm and scold me with the mention of how I was too eager. โI just want to touch you. Donโt take away my pleasure tonight, beautiful,โ he had said after my second orgasm when I had tried to grab his length. To punish me for going against him, he made the next session last twice as long before he allowed me to come. I had been in tears by the time he finally gave in. Even now, just the thought of all that we did last night sent heat straight to my core, along with the exhaustion from how tightly wound my body was last night.I felt a soft shift of a weight underneath me and a seductive rumble carry through

Carter Lockwoodโs home was not as I expected it to be. Typically, significant characters in werewolf novels had such grand mansion-like houses with manicured lawns and a beauty to be envied by all who entered.Carterโs house- or should I say cabin, reeked of humble naturalness. It was a small cottage with natural foot pathways and wild plants growing all around, protecting the secluded little house from outsiders. Wildflowers peeked out in bloom in various areas and trees surrounded the house on the sides, tucking it nice and neat for an adventurous hiker who wanted a natural environment. For some reason, it seemed to fit exactly what I already knew about Carter and his soul. He wasnโt one to brag, and definitely wasnโt the one who liked the spotlight naturally, but rather had it forced on him from duty.I fell in love just looking at the beautiful little home. I donโt know how Carter knew what I was thinking but his wolf rumbled in approval at my satisfaction and pressed his nose de

โI told you to come to me when you need something, didnโt I?โI whipped my head around to see a familiar dark silhouette hiding in the shadows of the street. The figure took a step closer to light themselves under the pale yellow light of the nearby street lamp. Carter looked disheveled. His hair looked unkempt, like his hands ran through it over and over again. His tense muscles clenched as he slowly walked over to me, putting me in shadow as the back of him lit up like he was covered in heavenly glow.When my eyes finally traveled to his face, he was furious. Considering how much was going on tonight, I didnโt even want to try to analyze what was going through that mind of his. Not tonight. I was so tired.Carter held out his hand for me to grab. I simply stared at it.โDamn it, Paisley, just take my hand.โ He sighed in frustration.Trying to put a halt in my tears, I eased my hand into his warm one. Without a second of hesitation, he pulled me to my fight and wrapped his arms aroun

โThere you are! We were worried sick about you!โ Denise and Phil ran out of the house. A look of genuine concern was on Philโs face but Deniseโs was obviously a burning fury disguised as concern. She assessed Carter for a moment before throwing her arm around my shoulders and trying to brisk me inside.โThank you, Beta Carter.โ She smiled tensely. โIโm sure my daughter put you through so much trouble tonight. We appreciate you taking her home.โ Deniseโs tight grip on my shoulders practically pushed me up the porch steps. I glanced over my shoulder to see Phil shaking Carterโs hand and thanking him earnestly for his help. Carter nodded respectfully but it was clear he was still filled with rage from what happened. He couldnโt take his eyes off mine as I was ushered over the threshold and into the house.Phil came in a moment later and shut the door just as Denise shoved me away from her.โHow dare you!โ She yelled, pointing her wrinkled finger at me. โAll youโve ever done is give me tr

โAre you really that clueless?โ He stared at me. I blinked and backed up, the sexual tension melting away to a cold icy river between us. โExcuse me?โ I raised my brow, feeling so cold suddenly. Goose bumps raised on the back of my neck.โYou could have been killed going to a place like that! Why on earth would you go to a club- and a well known RIH club at that! Donโt you realize that just being mated to me makes you an enemy to them?!โ Carter yelled, talking angrily with his hands. I stared straight ahead and merely folded my arms, the cold seeming into my bones. โYou act like I had a choice.โ I murmured.โWell, didnโt you?โ He scoffed. โYour father told me tonight that you were having a sleepover at a friend's house. So you can imagine my surprise when I found you in a club when not only are you underage but the club is in the heart of the RIH community?โโYou didnโt tell my father where I was, did you?โ I whipped my head in his direction, fear creeping through me. โWhen I real

It was absolute chaos all around me. I couldnโt hear anything except the dull ringing in my ears from the gun that fired next to me but I could see the massive wolves ambushing the human men with guns. Guns fired from the men in a panic, lighting up the dark side of the alley for brief moments like lightning. I was shoved to the ground for a moment as T.J. screamed something in my ears, saliva spitting as he shouted something with pure rage directed right at me. Out the the corner of my eye I saw T.J. raise his gun once more and aim it at me but before he could fire, a large wolf tackled him to the ground, clamping his jaws around T.J.โs firing hand.The ringing turned to a small dull noise as shouting and screaming were starting to be heard in my ears. I sat up to watch the same wolf decimating T.J.โs arm and shoulder.It was Carter. I hadnโt had a chance to take in his appearance before because of the gun trained on me, but now that I was out of immediate harm's way- I gasped from

Beta Carter:I was a ball of boiling pure rage. My wolf had taken over my body as we listened to the phone call of two men disrespecting our mate. He was shaking with the desire for blood as we continued listening as we swerved through the streets, breaking all speed limits and barely avoiding accidents. All as we continued to search for Paisley.There was something that all wolves knew deep in their soul. It wasnโt spoken much but it was acknowledged as truth no matter how often others- humans especially, seemed skeptical of it. The phenomena was- that no matter where in the world a wolf was, no matter how far away they were from their mate, if they were in danger- their mate would always be able to find them. Some said it was because of the mate bond, others said it was because of the tying between their souls that brought them together- even if they were worlds apart. There was a pull in my soul, guiding me towards her- towards Paisley. Her soul was calling out to mine in ways that

Beta Carter:My wolf was growling at me- once again. I could feel him there, pacing in my mind. He wanted Paisley and he wanted her now. It was getting harder to control him every day but being summoned away by Damien just as we were about to taste her for the first time- that was his final straw. He was snarling at the mental barriers I put him behind, digging his sharp claws at my mind, making me wince. Keep it together Carter. Control your wolf.Iโd always had a harder time controlling my wolf more than others excluding Damien. However, he seemed to embrace his out of control nature more than I which led to his ruthless nature. Something I had admired when I was young but latelyโฆI knocked on the door to Dameinโs office and waited for permission to enter. Damien was always a professional person and didnโt tolerate disrespect- no matter who it came from.I heard him mutter an โenterโ and let myself in. He was exactly where I left him a few hours ago.
