A Mistake Mate
Chapter 8

"Tell me Paisley." He ordered. I shook my head stubbornly.

"Tell me!" He repeated. I again shook my head and I could tell I was just making him more angry.

"Damn it Paisley, tell me!" He yelled but this time to was different because he put all of his alpha power into it. I tried to fight it but it was to powerful so I gave up and dropped my head.

"It's Xander, Xander Jackson." I said quietly but I knew he heard me. He froze and ten let out a jagged sigh.

"Come here baby girl." He said quietly and I immediately got up and launched myself into my daddy's arms. I broke down crying and he held me tightly. That night I cried myself to sleep in my dads arms thinking about the mate that didn't want me.

*Xander's POV*

I slammed the door after I walked into the house and it seemed as if it rattled the walls.

"Xander is that you?" I heard my dad yell from his office. I let out a frustrated sigh and walked towards him. When I entered the office I noticed that my mom and my dad were sitting on the large couch that is in his office. I stood in the door way and raised an eyebrow at my dad. He let out a frustrated sigh and motioned for me to take a seat. I sighed heavily but did as he said.

"What?" I asked in a bored tone. Dad studied me for a moment before speaking.

"She's a good girl you know." He said calmly, as if he was talking about the weather. I was taken back for a moment because I didn't expect my dad to replace out about my mate, I mean I knew he would feel the jump I just didn't think he would figure out who.

"Who are you talking about?" I asked with a straight face and a even tone. My dad gave me the 'really?' Face and my mom just looked plain confused.

"You know who I'm talking about. Your mate, the girl that you pretty much rejected." He said and I could tell he was angry. I narrowed my eyes at him and clenched my fists. This is my decision, if I don't want Paisley as my mate then he has to deal with it.

"I didn't reject her, I simply told her I didn't want to be with her." I said. My dad clenched his jaw and I could tell that his temper was only rising. My mom gave us both a confused look and I could tell she didn't have a clue as to what was going

on.

"Reed what are you talking about? Did Xander reject his mate? Do you know who she is?" My mom babbled hurriedly. I saw a small smile appear on my dads face before he turned to my mom and took her hands in his.

"Yes I know who his mate is and no he didn't reject her. Just be patient and I'll tell you everything later." He said quietly. She nodded her head and then he turned back to me with a glare.

"You will accept her." He ordered and that made my blood boil. I have alpha blood in me so I don't take to being bossed around very well. My wolf was snarling inside of me and I started to shake. I took deep calming breaths and once I finally got myself under control I turned towards my dad.

"It is my choice and I don't want to be with PAISLEY!" I yelled angrily. My dad looked taken back and my mom let out a quiet gasp. She looked up at me with surprise.

"Paisley? Paisley Conner?" She asked quietly. I nodded my head angrily and nearly punched the wall when my wolf whimpered inside of me. My mom had disappointment in her eyes and she slowly got up from the couch. She looked towards me one last time before shaking her head and walking out of the room saying quietly,

"I can't believe you, I thought I raised you better." It hurt hearing the words coming out of my moms mouth but I pushed it away and looked back towards my father. He looked angry but very disappointed also. I angrily clenched my fists and then ran out of the room. I ran down the stairs and into the back yard where I shifted into my wolf and ran off, trying to relieve my anger.

Paisley is turning out to be a bigger problem then I thought she would be.

*Paisley's POV*

I groaned when I heard the familiar beeping of my alarm clock the next morning. Reaching over I slammed my fist down onto it, successfully shutting it up. I really didn't want to go to school to today but I wasn't going to stay home and make myself seem weak. I pushed my thick blankets off of me and climbed out of the bed. I walked into my large bathroom and stood in front of the mirror. I didn't feel like doing anything with my hair so I put it into a cute messy bun on top of my head that had a few pieces falling out and I curled those pieces.
