Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

Chapter 0183

I followed my sister through the corridors of the packhouse in her new pack. It seemed a nice place, and I have to say, I couldn't help but notice a difference in her attitude… her aura. She seemed so much calmer… confident… happier. And, I can’t lie, it suited her. This was not the same Bailey who had left our pack a few weeks ago. Maybe being around Miles had been dragging her down more than we realized.

The news that he had been her fated mate had shocked me to the core. I won’t lie. It had hurt me too, considering the fact I had loved him secretly for so long, and she had been his all along… fated to him… and then rejected by him… yet never said a word to any of us. And of course, then I had become involved with him too. And now, when I look back, I still don’t know if that was because he wanted to find a way to get at Bailey, or gain information on her, because from everything I had learned from my Dad and my brother, Miles seemed obsessed with her, despite the fact he had rejected her.

can’t lie, I had felt flooded with guilt, much like Jordan, I guess that we had been blind to it. We had joined in so freely with the teasing… the bullying, thinking it was just playful taunting. Not realizing the depth of the cruelty, that Miles was actually sinking to. Bailey had suffered because of her fated mate worse than she ever should have done. Why he couldn’t just reject her and let her go, I would never know. And, I can imagine she

to mention his attention, I had fallen for him. Far too easily. But, I had always adored him, from being a young teenager... the handsome, upcoming Alpha... my big brother's best friend... school sport's star... he had been perfect in my eyes. So, when the warnings from my brother and my Dad had come, they had simply fallen upon deaf ears. I wanted him, and nothing would stop me. Even after he hurt me, time and time again, I kept returning… he was like a drug I was addicted to. I had naively thought he would pick me for his chosen mate. Pick
