The Beta's False Mate Chapter 8
Words cannot properly describe how Beta Carter- the proud strong male who always had a smile on his face and laughter in his lips- appeared before me. He looked broken. His pupils were so small, showcasing his bright blue eyes that shook with racing thoughts evident behind them. His mouth was hanging open slightly in shock, opening wider every time he took in a breath as if to speak, but only to stay silent and keep staring at me with that same expression. All we could do was stare at each other in silence for a minute.“You don’t... want to be my mate?” He whispered, his body so still- even his breath had stilled in wait of my answer.“It’s not that I don’t want to. I just-” I hung my head and wrapped my arms around myself, tears streaming down my face. “I can’t.”“What do you mean you can’t?” His voice started to show a hint of his frustration, his mask completely down- showcasing the tender hurting male underneath. Then he quickly inhaled. “Is it someone else? Am I... Am I too late

"Now?" I blinked. A quick glance at the window showed it was practically dusk outside."Yes." Carter was already on his feet, pulling me along as well."Where?" I blinked in confusion. Carter's smirk widened and a toothy grin put his beautiful white canines on display."Somewhere,” was all he said. He caught my hand and pulled me towards the door but I planted my heels into the carpet. Carter glanced down at them with a frown. "Is there something wrong?" He asked.I hesitated. Was it a wise idea to spend so much time with this magnet of a man? He wasn’t mine, not truly. Every moment shared with him meant one less that Paisley would get to experience. One look at Carter glancing at me hopefully had me burning like hot acid in jealousy. Paisley was one lucky girl. Would it be that bad of me if I took just a few moments of it? She does get to spend the rest of her life with him. Guilt seeped deeper into my heart at the thought. "Hey, hey, hey." Carter seemed to recognize my emotions b

“Well, if it isn’t his High and Mighty!”Carter and I looked up to see a large man make his way around the counter with another on his heels, both wearing hair nets and uniforms. The one who didn’t speak turned to his friend saying, “That is not the Beta Carter- the newly announced Beta of Lockwood pack.”The large man laughed and punched Carter in the arm lightly when they reached us. “What happened to our normal Carter? Where did he go? This guy looks way too muscular." The male teased and gave Carter one of those 'bro-hugs' men do.The three of them started chatting animatedly, leaving me standi

“Wow…” I whispered.We were on a cliff's edge overlooking the town where bright lights blinked against the dark night. A beautiful river flowed down before us, its shining dark depths lazily flowing downhill and creating a trickle that hummed in our ears. There was an old abandoned water mill off to the side of the mountain that pushed the wheel clockwise, ticking and creaking ever so often as water poured out from the side of it. But what stood out from all the rest was the perfect positioning of the moon at our backs that cascaded a beautiful white reflection on the river as it rippled down stream."I bet you're glad you came now, right?" He tossed his head back in triumph and sat us down, my back to his chest with his legs spread out on either side of me. I merely nodded, content with the beautiful scenery.I hadn't been to the mountains much back in the real world, I'd grown up in a major city with the nearest true wilderness with forests and rivers over a hundred miles away. On t

My body felt dirty, thoroughly disgusting in the way that only someone with mud and filth caked over them could comprehend. All I could think during the ride home was that I wanted a shower. And to sleep.When Carter's reached the driveway, I opened the door before it even stopped moving."Paisley-" I stopped before proceeding out of the car but refused to look at him. That one word he just spoke was the only word he and I said to each other the entire trip home. I couldn’t even bring myself to feel anything except for the numbing sense that I hurt Paisley and dirtied her body without her permission. I could see Carter clench the gear shift from the corner of my eye yet I still kept my face frozen, if only to keep my agony at bay.The silence stretched between us for about a minute before I took the initiative to open the door wider and exit the car. The sound of Carter's door opening in response told me he was walking to my door like the perfect gentlemen he was.And in truth he was

“Especially because you’re not my Paisley.”"What?" My body froze, cold sweat dripping down the back of my neck.Paisley's mother peered at me with a look I now recognized as hostility. She stood up and peered down at me with suspicious eyes, as if assessing me for the first time."W-what are you talking about mom? What do you mean I'm not Paisley. Of course I am." I gulped, trying to put on a facade of confusion."Don't call me mom while you look like that. Now what are you? A shapeshifter? A demon? Did you possess my daughter?" Her anger started to rise yet her volume turned quieter, more hiss-like."I-I don't know what you're talking about. Mom, are you okay?" I attempted to cross the distance between us but she held up her hand which was previously covered by the blanket. In her tight white knuckled grip, it revealed she wielded a kitchen knife. I gasped and put my hands up as if trying to soothe a dangerous beast."Don't come near me, devil. Now answer the question before I cut th

"I don't know."My voice rang through the silent house, almost as if even the wind was hushed at my admission."Well go back to wherever you came from and bring Paisley back." She said matter-of-factly."I cant." My throat started to close up. "Ha! Why? Because you're too busy using my daughter's tongue to stick it down some wolf's throat?" Her poisonous words pierced the deepest parts of my already aching soul.If she thought that was bad, I couldn’t wait for her to find out about what 'that wolf' did with his hands to Paisley's body not even an hour ago."I physically can't. I don't know how." I murmured, utterly defeated."Well you better figure out how." Paisley's mother spat venomously at me. Something seemed to deflate in her the more she took her anger out on me. Within moments, her shoulders sank and the fire seemed to leave her eyes, replaced by shiny unshed tears. "How could this happen..?" She whispered."I don't know. I'm sorry..." I repeated."Stop telling me you're sorry

“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
