Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

Chapter 0201

First I had stupidly answered the call from my Dad. I should have known that was never going to be a good thing to do with Asher right next to me, but when my phone was incessantly ringing, I didn't feel I had much choice. But for him to them break the news I was expected at the wedding, well, I was a little shocked. Surely, the wedding could continue without me there?

The wedding was no shock. After all, Morgan had updated me with the whole sorry mess. That, after all, was why she was here. And the poor she- wolf who had agreed to marry the nut-job psychopath who would likely one day be the Alpha of my pack, had my sympathy. She was more than welcome to him too, and she would need every ounce of luck she could find to tolerate him. That is all I could say! But, I did not expect to be forced to go to the wedding of the dick who had treated me like shit for so many years... bullied me and treated me like I was below him... not to mention the fact I had been fated to him, and he had chosen I was not worthy of him so rejected me. Were none of those good enough reasons for me to be permitted to avoid the wedding of the fucking century?! Allow Alpha Ass to marry and let me live here in peace?

But now I had Asher looking at me, his face taut with what I can only assume was irritation. I had a feeling he had heard every word of the conversation between me and my Dad. Truly not the thing I need right now, because it didn't reflect well on my Dad or my pack. Though Asher knew the mess that was my pack... the mess that I had been put through. But still, I did not want him questioning me about this. He didn't look impressed, that is for sure... and, he took me by surprise as he spoke. "You are not going back there."

I narrowed my eyes at him, wondering who the hell he thought he was dictating to me what I would and wouldn't be doing. No, I didn't want to go, and thought my Dad had no right to be saying I should, but this seemed an awful lot to me, like Asher was telling me I couldn't go. He had no right to tell me what to do. And I looked at him, my palms becoming sweaty. "Pardon?"

"You can't go back." He insisted.
