The Girl Who Cried Wolf

Ch.17

    "So what was the actual pack tradition?" I asked Carter as we walked the beach.

    "Every time we get a new member to the pack we play a game a baseball to see how well the newbie can play." He smirked.

    "Did you just call me a newbie?"

    "I may have.

    "Keep calling me that and you wont continue to get those kisses."

    He gasped.

    "You wouldn't!"

    "Oh I would."

    "Yeah?"

    "Yeah."

    "Well we'll just have to see about that!" He picked me up by my waist and placed me on his shoulders as he ran down the beach.

    "Carter put me down!"I demanded.

    In an instant he had me on the ground and behind him protectively.

    "What? What is it?!" I asked him.

    "He was just here." Carter growled.

    He didn't have to say the name for me to know he was talking about Johnathan. A flash of pink caught my eye in the sand.

    "Carter." I whispered.

     It caught his eye as well and he bent down to pick it up. He tore it open and I read it over his shoulder.

Dear Alicia,

    I hope you enjoyed the fun I allowed you to have uninturupte. Your welcome. See how easy it was to walk right past you two unnoticed. I could have taken you right then, too many witnesses.
    Carter: I bet you regret turning me into a rogue now.

                                                           Johnathan

    Short and to the point. In a flash Carter had an arm around my waist and basically carrying to his car. He put me in the passenger side and slammed the door shut. I buckled up quickly as he got in and did the same. He sped down the road in the direction of the pack house. Once we arrived he wasted no time before getting out and pulling me out of the car. He stormed into the house and went straight to the kitchen where his mother was. He placed me in her arms and gave her a look. Using the mind link for sure. He finished talking yo her and turned towards me.

    "I'm going to a pack meeting stay here with my mom. I'll be back for you as soon as possible." He promised, placing a kiss on my forehead.

    I whimpered and he smiled.

    "I'll tell you everything when I get back.

    "Come on dear." Mrs.Manning/Stephanie said softly as Carter squared his shoulders and walked quickly to the meeting room.

    She led me to a now vacant living room and sat with me on the couch.

    "What's going on between you two? I havennt seen him this protective over anyone before, or that sweet." She smiled.

    "I don't know I just trust him. It feels....right." I blushed.

    Her smile grew and she gave me a knowing look.

    "Full moons in two days you know. Any idea who your mate might be?"she asked.

    "No idea. What if I never find my mate?" I asked her.

    "Hun, the best things in life come to you when you wait." She smiled.

    I gave her a confused expression and Carter chose that moment to come back into the room.

    "Well that was quick." I told him, turning my body to face him as he sat beside me.

    "It was simple. I just had to asign jobs to the units." He stated.

    "For what?" I asked him.

    "To end him."
