Beauty and The Beta (Bailey) novel Chapter 231

The five of us ran the remaining short distance to my parents' home. Flinging the door open, Morgan, Marc and I dashed inside to grab our things. I rushed around throwing the remaining things into the bags.

“We will stand and guard the door.” Harley urged us. “Just go.”

My heart was pounding in my chest as Akira was rippling beneath my skin. Desperate to get out and run… run away from here, despite it being her home. But I know to be safe I need to stay with Marc and Morgan. We needed to escape. This was not the right thing. This was wrong. All so wrong. I was terrified right now as I grabbed the remainder of my things.

‘Get out as quick as you can Bai!’ My Dad urged me through the mindink, and I can sense his fear through the link alone, and that only adds to my own. ‘Miles wants you and he has demanded you be brought to him. Escape now.’

Miles wanted me?! My Dad's guess had been right. And he was demanding me be brought to him? This was not how thing were meant to be. No. That cannot happen. I ran down the stairs from my room. “We need to go, and quickly. Dad linked again, Miles is demanding I be brought to him. It is probably only a matter of time until someone comes to get me.”

‘Dad?’ I mindlink, desperate for confirmation of what has happened, and what is going on now. I wanted to know if we were still okay for time. But there was nothing. Nothing but silence. And that simply terrified me. My mind was working overtime with the possibilities of what could be happening at the packhouse or what Miles may be doing in his bid to get to me...

A heard a snarl from the front door in response to my words, making my heart pound as I looked up, only to see Harley standing there. “No, that won’t happen Bai, we will all protect you. Morgan, come on!” he yelled, pressing my sister to hurry.

“Just getting the last few things.” She responds.

“They can fucking wait. If needs be, your Mum and Dad can send them. What is more important, them or your lives?” he roared.
