Beauty and The Beta (Bailey) novel Chapter 243

The atmosphere in the office was tense. No, beyond tense. Initially between Marshall and I when he ordered me to stay in there with him to help deal with the mess – a mess created by his own son’s bad choices, it seemed. And then, after much panic from Kaia that her Dad had in fact died, when Alpha Aaron awoke, he was irate. Furious that Miles had assaulted him, accusing him of trying to kill him. Which was somewhat of an exaggeration, the boy had landed a lucky punch, later helped out by the table as he fell.

Seemed the Alpha was as overdramatic as his bloody daughter, and they were both beginning to get on my damn nerves when I desperately needed to go to help Bailey. I needed to see what Miles was doing. I had reached out to Ellis and Jordan in the hope they could go and help her, but I had heard no response from them since they agreed they would. So I was currently trapped in an office with a bunch of drama queens and my friend, who right now did not feel much of a friend when he had forced me to stay here against my will, when he knew I wanted to go and protect my daughters. Dick.

Alpha Aaron was putting all the blame for this situation upon us, yet while I cannot deny that Miles had fucked up big time, his daughter was far from innocent in this mess; and he needed to accept that.

“Is that fucker on his way back here to deal with his mess?” Alpha Aaron demanded haughtily.

“We have people looking for him.” I told him, to which Marshall raised his brows at me in question.

‘Jordan and Ellis went to help Bailey, with strict instructions to bring the little shit back here to clean up his mess.’ I told my friend. ‘Though it may be best to ensure warriors are under our orders, not Miles’s, because I do not trust him, Marshall. He is all out for Bailey right now, and that is not fair on her. She deserves a future. Your son is dangerous, and you know he is.’ I mindlinked, and Marshall looked down at his hands, deep in thought, before looking at me with a nod.

‘You ae right, I will mindlink the warriors, order them all to accept no orders from him. Jordan and Ellis should be able to bring him back. And then we deal with this, though fuck knows how. I don’t think he seems willing to accept anything.’ Marshall looked almost broken right now. Maybe he was beginning to see that years of spoiling his son rotten, and allowing him to run free with no restraints was not the way to go. Whether he was going to be the next Alpha or not, he still needed to learn right from wrong, and he still needed controlling. And right now, this little fucker had no control. Not a fucking ounce of it.
