Beauty and The Beta (Bailey) novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19 Bailey

+5 Pearls

Well, the interview went well, despite the awkward start of nearly being plowed over by the Beta escaping the room like he had a rocket up his a*s. I could see his friendly demeanor had improved massively since the party. He was clearly a joy to work with. Radiating sunshine that

one.

However, Alpha Caleb and Luna Eden, who had done the interview, both seemed lovely, and Luna Eden, bless her, looked ready to pop in the latter stages of pregnancy. Though she did seem to be glowing with it too. I never understood how that worked when I had heard people describe pregnant women in that way, but to see Luna Eden she generally looked to be shimmering with happiness and health. The affectionate smiles down to her swollen belly as she stroked it told me she likely already adored the little one growing there.

I was proud considering this was my first official interview. We had practiced ones many times. during our studies, but they were not the same as the tutors always guided us. This

had been nerve-wracking, but the Alpha and Luna were so calming and friendly. Both so enthusiastic about their pack, and the young children within their school. I could see that the future of the pups meant a lot to them, as it should, and that hit even harder that I would not be able to work for them. But, I was happy to be able to say that I had been able to answer all of their questions in what I felt was a professional way. And they both seemed happy with all my answers too.

It was a shame really that it was all going to go to waste. “Would you like to stay for a coffee and some cake in the gardens with me?” Luna Eden offered, with a friendly smile as she led me from the office. “An excuse for cake is always good.” She told me with a wink, and I couldn’t help but laugh. How could I refuse that offer?

“I guess I could do that. And, to be fair, I have likely lost my Dad for a while anyway, he came with me to see Alpha Isaak.” I told her, with a small shrug.

“Oh, I will set you up a bed, because once he starts talking you could be here forever!” she grins, and again I find myself smiling at her friendly disposition.

“I am not going to complain about coffee, I love coffee.” I tell her and she nods. “And like you. said, an excuse for cake is always good.”
