Chapter 90 – Asher

Sitting at my desk sorting through yet more papers for Caleb. Who knew an Alpha had so much paperwork to do? Thankfully, the baby had arrived now, but I had done the decent thing and told. Caleb to take a couple more weeks off to allow him to spend some time at home with his family. Bond with his new baby, Freya, and allow Eden some time to rest with Caleb at home to help, though no doubt she would see it as having him under her feet.

Even once he was back at work, she would be inundated with offers of help, but still, I wanted him to have that chance to spend time with his new pup. Those first few weeks are ones you never have the chance to get back, or so i am told… But, at least, I know I am getting close to the end of having this

additional pressure upon me.

Zion is in desperate need of a run. But, I have had to cut my daily runs short these last few days with the amount of work that needed doing because I didn’t want to leave Caleb with a stack of work to return to. Though I was finding it increasingly harder to focus. My mind so often drifts to Isla… and now Bailey too. But, I couldn’t solve this thing with Bailey and gain the answers I needed because she seemed unwilling to talk to me. So, I simply buried my head within the work and did what I did best and avoided people.

While sitting at my desk, the phone rang, which always confused me, which likely sounds ridiculous, because obviously that is what telephones are for, to take calls, but everyone in the pack can mindlink, so we so often use that instead, rather than

using the phone, so phone calls are rare unless they are external. So I answered, truly not having the energy to deal with. talking to others.

“Hello, Autumn Valley Pack, Beta Asher speaking, how can I help?” I said, trying my hardest to sound polite, they would have to make do with that. Cheerful was outside of my abilities, especially today.

“Ah Beta Asher, just the person, or Alpha Caleb, but you will do.” A voice said, and the moment they spoke, I recognized it as the annoying father of Bailey. Wonderful. I was tired. Over worked, and over stressed. The last thing I needed to be dealing with was this over–excitable fool.

Nothing like insulting me either, with the ‘You will do‘ statement, was there? Eurgh… I wish I hadn’t answered the phone now…

‘Should have gone for a run like I asked you to.‘ Zion snarled, he was getting really snappy of late.
