Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

61

Chapter 61 – Bailey I had no choice but to accept the help of the most irritating man ever, and we were walking through the forest together. He stomped heavily through the trees, evidently knowing where he was going. Which I could not lie, was definitely a good thing, because without Akira here with me, I had no clue where I was going! Of all the times for her to go off in a huff, now was definitely not an ideal time… “Were you on patrol?” I asked. I only spoke because I was hating the awkward silence between us, but at the same time I so desperately not wanting to talk to him either. “Will you get in trouble for leaving?” “Yes I was, but nah I shouldn’t think so. Found some loner wandering in the forest, so I am bringing her back to pack for interrogation. Don’t think they can argue with me on that one.” He winked at me. “Interrogation?” I rolled my eyes. “Hmm, well, your name could be a start?” he grinned. “Oh.” I felt my cheeks heating at his joke, he had clearly been teasing me, and that had worked. He was such a d**k. “Bailey.” “Well, Bailey, nice to meet you. I am Marc.” He offered me his hand, but I chose to ignore it, not willing to shake his hand after he had done nothing since meeting me but tease me, and going off his response, he had found great pleasure in it too! 0.00% 1107 * He looked at me a little uncomfortable before slipping his hand into his pocket and muttering, “Sorry.” I felt bad about how guilty he looked, and realized I had likely offended him now. Dammit, I was being grumpy, and I knew I was…” No, it is fine, I am sorry. Just me being grumpy I guess.” I admitted with a sigh… “You missing home?” he asked and I shrugged, “Worried about home, more like, but nobody is telling me much.” I said without really thinking, as I

of the woman who would soon be my Chapter 61-Bailey colleague. “Yep, good ol’ Mrs Sullivan.” He grinned. “Sure she will be happy to have you there.” “We will see when I get there, I may be terrible!” I told him with a wry smile, and he gave me a shake of his head, as we crossed over the road from the forest heading toward the main part of the pack. I knew had Marc not helped me it would have taken me forever to find my way here, because I still had no clue how we had got here! “I highly doubt that, or Alpha Caleb would not have taken you on, they have been pretty fussy. Trust me, I would know, I heard it all from my Mum!” he grinned at me, and I found myself smiling back. “You are weird.” I told him with a roll of my eyes, and

that not be my decision, Beta?” I questioned and both their eyes darted to me, a look of surprise on Marc’s face, and one of anger on Asher’s face. A dark scowl appeared upon Asher’s face as he looked to Marc. He looked like he was ready to kill someone… “You have been here a matter of days, and you have already found yourself a replacement for the guy you hoped to be your chosen mate that found his fated, I see?” he looked at me as he spoke icily, and his words hit me hard… I stood in shock at his words while Marc looked at me awkwardly, my whole body was trembling, so desperate to come back with a good argument, but, I needed to get away. I could not believe this nasty f**r could throw such an evil comment at me when he knew how much I had been struggling with the situation with Harley. His kind words after had made me think there was a nice guy inside his tough exterior after all. Ha… Evidently, he wasn’t the nice guy I was starting to think he was. I didn’t want to
