"Are you hungry?". He asked.
"Not really".
"Can I take you for coffee then?".
"I guess". My stomach was in knots. Carter wasn't being Carter. Something was off.
"Starbucks?".
A sigh fell from my lips. "Is it gran?". I asked.
I hadn't heard from her since Saturday and I thought maybe she had reached out to him. Carter and I That was until he turned into a wolf.
"Is what gran?".
"Why are you takingfor coffee?".
"A catch up bear. Want to make sure you're doing okay".
"You're a real bad liar". I crossed my arms over my chest, diverting my gaze. He was hiding something. A laugh fell from his lips. "I do need to talk to you but there's no rush.

I couldn't argue with that but I wanted to know how he knew. Sparagraphs are incomplete if you business. Nothing was ever sacred. If Jake and I were arguing everyone knew about it. "Did he tell you?".
"Alanna did".
I sighed. "Of course, she did. Do you know sometimes I feel like I'm in a relationship with his whole family". "Have you told them to back off?".
"No".
"Maybe start there".
"Just like that?". I grinned.

"I don't blyou".
"It's not all flowers and rainbows. It's hard at times especially when he struggles to control his temper".
"Man up".
I almost choked on my coffee. Did he just tellto man up? "You're just as powerful as him. Having you with him makes him stronger. Next the f***s up do something about it". "Like what?".
"I'm sure you'll think of something".
"Are you going to tellwhat's going on?". I asked.
"My dad wantsto go home".
My stomach knotted. I knew this was coming. He refused the first tbut I knew it was only a matter of tbefore his Beta status kicked in.
"You have to take up your role, don't you?".
"Something like that". He shrugged.
"And Alanna?".
"She's not happy about leaving her family but she's on board with it".
They were leaving.
I would have no family here if Carter leaves.

I would never beg him to stay. He had a duty to his pack and sadly his pack wasn't this one. He was second in wasn't command, a fighter, a leader and he wasn't getting that here. Here he was just a wolf.

"Next the fucks up you lay his a*s out".
A laugh fell from my lips as he started the engine. "I swear".
It hadn't sunk in that Carter and Alanna were leaving. Not for another month right enough but still it was big news.
I would have no one to vent too anymore. Alanna was my first friend here and yes; I was sad that she was leaving.
"Babe, you ready?". He walked into our bedroom suited and booted.
He sure was handsome.
"You scrub up nice". I teased.
