Beauty and The Beta (Bailey) novel Chapter 10

Chapter 10 Bailey

+5 Pearls

My Dad literally dragged me to the Alpha office, where my Uncle was sitting at his desk, but sadly for me. Miles was sitting on the sofa at the opposite end of the room, his feet propped up on the coffee table, looking more than relaxed. Doing what he did best, absolutely nothing…

“Ah, hi Bailey sweetheart. How are you finding being back on pack?” Uncle Marshall asked me with a big smile, like he was pleased to see me. Needless to say, the feeling was not mutual with his son, whose dark glare was focused solely upon me from the moment I had walked into the room. If looks could kill, I would have dropped dead the second I came into the room. A painful death, no doubt too….

“Hi Uncle, it is a little odd, I can’t lie. I think I got used to being away.” I admitted, and saw him

frown.

“Well, we are glad to have you back sweetheart.”

I heard what sounded like something crossed between a snigger and a cough from Miles, making me turn to look toward him, and he shook his head at me. He thinks he bothers me? That I care he doesn’t want me back here? I didn’t want to be back here. Strangely, it was them that told me to come home. I couldn’t care less about his view on it.

‘Bailey wanted to come and see Miles, actually.” My Dad began, and I felt myself wanting to curl up and die of embarrassment. “She needed to apologize, I believe,”

“Oh?” My Uncle questions.

Though what catches my eye is the smug expression upon Miles’s face. “Is that so?” he looks at me with his brows raised. “You realized you need to show me some respect, little girl?”

I could see the confused expressions on the faces of both my Uncle and my Dad. Unsurprising really when this st*pid f**ker is addressing me in such a way. I don’t care if they thought Miles deserved my respect or not. But I had no intention of apologizing to him when he was calling me little girl. I was a year younger than him. And even if I wasn’t there was no need to be patronizing and call me that.

“Lost your tongue Bailey?” Miles stood up, striding across the room and was soon standing in front of me, looking all co cky. I could feel my wolf, Akira rippling beneath my skin at how he was behaving. She did not like how he was treating me. She had never forgiven him for rejecting her. “Or is it just hard to admit you are in the wrong?” he smiles smugly at me.

I shook my head. “No. I don’t find it hard to admit when I am wrong, actually, Miles…” I began.

“I think it should be Alpha Miles to you.” he says with a jeer.

“Erh…” his Dad began, but was silenced by Miles with a wave of his hand. I would like to think my Uncle have been about to defend me. Or tell Miles to control himself.

“As I was saying, Miles, Alpha Miles, or whatever else you would like to be referred to, I am sure I

earned, and you, I am afraid, are an awful long way from earning even an ounce of respect from me Miles, upcoming Alpha or not.” I said calmly, and I can see my Dad standing with his eyes wide at what I have just said.
