Beauty and The Beta (Bailey) novel Chapter 124

“In all seriousness, he has tried hard to make me feel welcome. As have the staff at school. I enjoyed my day. Thanks for wanting to check in on me.” I told her with a smile. She was certainly going to a lot of effort to make sure I fitted in within her pack. For that, I would always be grateful. It meant I had a haven to escape to after everything with Miles...

“Aww no worries, though I am not too fussed with the ladies at school, I had no doubt they would welcome you with open arms. Just cranky pants I had my doubts over.”

“Honestly, Luna Eden, he did fine. He checked on me before I started, and when I finished work. I mean, it is pretty clear he does not like having to talk to people he doesn’t know, but I don’t take that personally.”

The Luna began to laugh at the other end of the phone. “Well, you are not wrong. But he is not too bad of a guy, really. There is a sweetness under all that darkness and moodiness. You just got to rummage around a little.” she giggled.

I shook my head. Anyone would think she was trying to sell him to me. “I will bear that in mind.” I said quickly, feeling a little uncomfortable, considering I had already seen that he could be more than a little sweet just moments earlier. “Anyway, how are you doing?” I asked, hoping to change the subject.

“I want this pup out now. He must be the size of a full-sized werewolf now! Sure feels like it. His feet sure feel like it when he kicks me!” she said with such emphasis in her voice couldn’t help but snigger.

“Aww, you are uncomfortable then? Do you know it is a boy?” I suddenly realized she had said him multiple times.

“No. Just assuming with the way it is kicking the shit out of my insides. A little soccer star in the making.” She joked.
