A Mistake Mate novel Chapter 33

*Paisleys POV*

"Paisley are you listening to me?" My dad questioned from across his desk. My head snapped towards him and I saw that he had a eyebrow raised at me.

"What?" I asked confused. Dad quietly chuckled before shaking his head.

"I asked if you were listening to me." He repeated. My eyes widened a little before I gently bit my lip and shook my head.

"Of course your not." He answered trying to sound stern but I could hear the amusement in his voice. I've been sitting in my dads office all day long going over papers, pack issues and alpha things. It's something that the two of us do regularly because I am the future alpha of my pack. I just haven't been able to concentrate all day long because my mind has been on one thing, or should I say person.

Xander hasn't left my mind since he walked out of my room yesterday. His words keep repeating in my head and I just can't seem to get them out. Not only his words but his voice, his eyes, his scent, just everything. I can't get him out of my head.

I was snapped back into reality when I heard my dad clear his throat. I raised my head up to look at him and saw that he had a smirk on his face.

"Mind stuck somewhere else?" He asked as if he read my thoughts. I felt the blush make its way onto my face and I looked down at my hands to avoid eye contact.

"No." I answered quickly. My dad let out a throaty chuckle before smiling down at me.

"I know when your lying sweetheart and I also know for a fact that the only thing you've been thinking about all day is Xander." He answered with a smirk. My blush deepened and I let out a huff.

"Shut up!" I whined like a child. Dad laughed before reaching across the desk and grabbing my hand.

"It's okay baby girl, it's only natural. Your mother is still always on my mind." He said with a dreamy look in his eyes. A giggle escaped my mouth causing my dad to grin at me. His grin slowly faded away before his face became serious. I frowned at the sudden change of mood before slightly sitting up in my seat.

"What's wrong?" I questioned. Dad sighed before releasing my hand and running his own through his hair.

"I'm just worried that's all." He vaguely answered. My frown became deeper and I was starting to get worried.

"I don't know." I muttered. Dad nodded before continuing.

"And another thing, what beta are you going to choose? Seth or Cole?" He asked. I frowned because I actually hadn't thought about this stuff before. I didn't even get a chance to answer because my dad continued.

"And are you guys going to settle down in the pack house or in a house of your own? Are you still going to go to college like we planned?" He continued with the questiones. An exasperated sigh escaped my mouth before I put a hand up to stop my dad.

"I honestly don't know dad. I'll have to talk to Xander about it." I answered. He nodded his head before we fell into a peaceful silence. I had never given much thought about what would happen once Xander and I mated because I honesty didn't think it would happen but now that we are whatever we are the questions are all rushing in.

Like how are we going to take care of the pack. Because once we mate are packs are going to have to join together and be one pack. My pack contains just over three hundred people and Xander's contains just over four hundred so that's over seven hundred people! I don't know how were going to handle it.

I frowned, beginning to get worried about everything, before I felt a hand on my shoulder. I looked up to see my dad standing above me with a small smile on his face.
