Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

Chapter 28 Asher

Office work was becoming repetitive for me today. But, I had already done the pack training and been out for a run, so I had delayed my paperwork for as long as I think I possibly could. Poor Eden was suffering terribly now with the later stages of pregnancy, so Caleb was having to tend to her a little more than we would have expected at this stage. So, additional duties have fallen to me.

Not that I minded particularly much as it kept my mind busy. And, I have to admit, I found it somewhat amusing watching Eden give her mate holy hell for the slightest thing, because it seemed him making her pregnant meant he was somehow to blame now for every little thing that inconvenienced her, or simply irritated her. And watching Caleb trying to steer his way around the ticking timebomb that was his mate and wife was like a comedy show in itself…

But additional paperwork was such a drag. After so long, numbers began to blend into one another. And I am sure they began to move about the page too. And as for having to read, words began to switch and not make any sense, or they simply stopped sinking into my mind. It was usually at that point I knew I was done for and that no work was happening. Coffee was the only thing fueling me. But even that was beginning to fail me.

I stood away from my desk and walked to the coffee machine at the opposite side of my office, and glanced toward the window as I did. The sun was shining gloriously outside, telling me how lovely it would be to let Zion out for another run. I bet he would love that. A run through the trees, his fur with the breeze blowing through it as his feet pounded on the forest floor. Instead, I am holed up in my office slowly losing my mind…. though I guess to lose my mind, I would have to be sane to start with…

I sort myself a fresh coffee, and a strong one at that, before moving back toward my desk, just as my phone begins to ring. Hmm, who would be calling my office phone? Anyone in the pack would
