Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

26

Chapter 26 Miles

My mind had been distracted all of the day. After seeing Bailey, I had gone to the gym, and took my anger out on the punch bags. But, it had not done what I had needed, not like it usually did. My wolf, Jet, enraged at the sense of distrust from one of his own pack needed to be allowed out. He needed the freedom of space and time to run. He enjoyed the thrill of hunting and taking his anger out on some innocent small prey. Making them suffer because of his wrath.

And today was worse than normal. This warrior boy had truly gotten under both of our skin. I was the next leader. Yet that fool was questioning me and my words. He was questioning the things I was saying. Bailey was a nobody. She had always been, yet some small-time warrior was taking her word over the words of his next Alpha? The moment I had left the gym I had headed for the treeline, and stripped myself of my clothes. Placing them into some broken bark, ready to retrieve them when my anger had subsided enough. Though I doubted small prey would be enough today. The thing I wanted to destroy most was the face of that pretty boy warrior…

But, I knew that I had to control that violent streak within me. As the upcoming Alpha, I could not be seen to be hurting my own pack members; or at least not without a decent reason. I may just have to find myself conveniently paired with him in the next pack training session. Warrior or not, he and his wolf would stand no chance against me and my Alpha Wolf. And, I would enjoy every second of destroying the irritating little f**ker; and thankfully, nobody would question it. Perfect!

The resentment swelled through every pore of my body and every part of my wolf’s being too, as my bones snapped and twisted. Cracking and dislocating through the now swift and smooth shifting process of turning into my aggressive wolf form. And oh, today was he aggressive! The connection we shared was boiling with rage. It was bad enough that Harley thought he could answer me back,

but to think he could go to my father, bring my whole reign into question, was something else entirely. He would live to regret that threat. I would make sure of it.

Jet’s feet pounded the floor of the forest at a speed so swift, as the breeze caught his gray fur while he dodged between trees and undergrowth. His eyes darted back and forth, searching for the sight of any prey he could punish. Anything to take his anger out on.

I allowed myself to fall back within his mind to give him the freedom he was craving to run and hunt. I sadly would find no freedom from the many thoughts weighing down my mind. Bailey had been a burden upon my life and mind since the moment I had realized what she was to me. I have since had to witness my own younger brother and now my best friend, meet their fated. mates and see their joy. Both blessed with fated mates worthy of the men they were. Yet I was given some pathetic excuse of a she-wolf.

Seeing both Ellis and now Jordan with their mates only made me hate Bailey more. I had been. brought up as the upcoming Alpha. Always given the things I wanted in life. That was how my parents had been. Some would call that spoiled, but to my parents, it was just preparation for what would happen when I became Alpha. As Alpha, I would have all the things I wanted. I would be at the top of the pack and nobody would argue with me. I would be denied nothing. So, I was used to having everything I wanted, and I wanted the most beautiful of mates. One to show off. One to be proud of and one that my friends would look at and be jealous of.

So when the time came Lexnected the moon goddess to deliver Lexnected a perfect fated mate
