Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

Chapter 0163

I stretched lazily, relishing the warmth of the bed. That had to be the best night's sleep I have had in a long time... When suddenly I was aware of a movement next to me, and before I was able to open my eyes, I felt a hard thud to my chest, like a fist impacting it. Putting me on edge instantly, and causing me to jump suddenly. But, my senses are filled with the scent of Bailey messing with my mind...

"Asher!" Bailey snapped, before I had even opened my eyes.

Oh, shit... the realization hit me as memories of last night flooded my mind.

'Oh who has been a naughty boy!' Zion sniggered.

'Not helpful!' I warned him.

I pried my eyes open, trying to adjust my eyes to the brightness of the sunshine glaring into the room, which meant it was more than likely already well past the time I was due to be starting the pack run. Caleb was going to be annoyed with me! Feigning sickness may be my only option...

As my eyes adjusted, I saw a very angry-looking Bailey glaring back at me. "Why are you in my bed?!"

"Keeping you warm?" I suggested with a playful grin, but, going off the dark stare I received in return, my attempt at being playful had failed. I was definitely out of practice.

I waited a while. But I fell asleep, and only just woke up, I am sorry, okay?" I looked at her pleadingly. "It isn't like we are naked."

my heart pounded at her response. "What's wrong, Bailey?" I softly stroked her face. "You getting all hot and flustered at the thought of us naked
