“Carter.” 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.“Paisley.” His rough voice croaked out.I looked over at Jules and she assessed Carter warily. “Need me to call Joey?” She asked. I was confused at what she meant but couldn’t focus on her question, so instead I shook my head. “I’m going to head outside for a minute.” 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.“Did you need something?” 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 didn’t speak until we got into his truck. The rich leather scent was almost masked by Carter’s 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.“Breathe with me, Carter.” 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. “You know…” he whispered breathlessly. “If I move my hand down slightly I’ll be grabbing your breast.”He 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 didn’t tread into that part of town because of how they were treated in that area. Did Paisley know that? From what Paisley’s 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 Paisley’s 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, Paisley’s mother was going to be furious with me when she found out that I not only didn’t keep my promise to stay away from Carter, but also managed to lose Paisley’s job in less than an hour.All in a day’s 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 Bane’s. 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.“You know, it looks so much like you, it’s uncanny.” He teased me.“Oh yea. Sure.” I sarcastically replied. “With my big lips, and arms longer than my legs.” I pointed to the stick figure’s odd body proportions. “What a looker.”“Hey.” He grumbled and took the picture from me. “That’s my girl you’re ta

“We can’t keep doing this Carter.” I groaned, putting my head in my hands.“I know.” Carter sighed next to me and put the car in drive.I deflated internally. It was hard enough trying to deal with Carter’s 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.“I can’t be with you Carter, you have to understand that.”“I do, Paisley.” His voice turned into a soft grumble.“Why is it so hard for us to just keep our hands off of each other?” I muttered to myself, my frustration leaking out from so many emotional sources. “Maybe because we’re not meant to stay away from each other?” He sarcastically replied.I glared at him through the side of my eye. “You said you understood that we couldn't be together.” I grit my teeth, trying to hold down my lustful energy turned anger. “I said I understood, not that I liked it.” He scoffed.“Well-” I hugged. “If we can’t keep our hands to ourselves, then ma

“There’s something important I need to ask.” Carter whispered softly in my ear. His breath tickled it ever so slightly causing goosebumps to rise.“What is it?” 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.“Are you avoiding me?” Carter’s eyes glinted with mischief and challenge.I cleared my throat and shrugged. “Just busy with work- you know, the job that you got for me?” The frustration was starting to build inside me and I had to clench my teeth to keep it down. “So you’re avoiding me.” Carter quirked a brow, popping a french fry in his mouth. “I just said-” I stopped myself and groaned, scratching at my scalp. “Are you trying to be annoying?” “I don’t know, is it working?” He smirked.I huffed and turned back to my food. The sexual frustration this man caused me was absolutely unreal. “Just leave me to my meal in peace.” I rolled my eyes.“I’m glad you’re enjoying it, at least.

“Carter!” 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.“Oh! Dear me, are you in a meeting? Did I interrupt?” She glanced at Carter and me curiously, however something about her gaze seemed a little… “Not at all Grace, just spending some time with my mate.” 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, I’ll 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 cousin’s mate a polite smile mask? Weren’t they closer than that?“Oh. Oh! That’s right! You found your mate!” Luna Grace looked between me and Carter as if seeing us together was the cutest thing. She closed the distance between us and held out her hand for me

I was overthinking it. I knew I was overthinking it.Yet, I couldn’t stop pacing and I couldn’t stop changing my outfit. “It’s just a stupid dinner.” 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 didn’t 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 I’d turn to mush.I was basically pudding in his hands, and he knew it.And th
