Chapter 167

His chair scraped the tiled floor as he stood and walked round the table to crouch beside me. "You're having to grow up quickly, Carlie and it's okay to be scared. Not every teenage girl could become Beta, be expected to fight and find her mate all within 6 months. You're bound to feel a little overwhelmed with it all, but you don't have to do it on your own." His hand reached out for mine and he held it tight. "Now I know I'm 'an old dude'," I giggled at his comment, "But I'm still here if you need anything. Especially if your future Alpha steps out of line and needs to be taken down with a silver bullet or two." He winked causing me to laugh louder. "Thanks, old man." I joked and wrapped my arms around him, hugging him tightly. "I love you." "Anytime, my beautiful angel and I love you." He said softly. It was strange how light I felt after telling him about Adan. It was as if an invisible weight had been sat on my shoulders and now it was gone.
