Beauty and The Beta (Bailey) novel Chapter 278

Being ordered to sit and allow this dick to have his say had been bad enough. But what broke me was the fact that Bailey had said she wanted to hear him out. She wanted to hear what he had to say. Zion whimpered the moment those words had left her mouth. Terror had filled every part of me. He had played on her loyalty to her pack. Even I could see that. Manipulating her emotions, I just hope she could see it too.

Bailey was loyal to a fault. And I would never criticize her for that, but it worried me that it meant she would find herself in a position she did not want to be. That it could mean we find one another apart…

But, her hand remained upon my arm as Miles tried his hardest to convince her, and the expression upon her face barely changed. She looked down at her hands fiddling with her fingers. I barely took my eyes from her, and I think I saw her look at Miles a matter of a few times, and there was no fear there. She was not scared of him, and she was standing up to him.

His excuses were the most pathetic I think I have ever heard. It seemed to come across to me, that he had chosen to make her life a living hell, and turn the kids of their ages against her all because she refused to do his school work for him? All because she was more intelligent than him? He needed her help to pass his school grades and she refused him. He was so used to everyone doing things for him, trying hard to please him, that when someone suddenly didn’t, he hadn’t known how to handle it; and he took revenge.

Even Morgan was shocked, and she will have been one of his minions, one of the ones following him and doing as he did in a desperate attempt to fit in with him…
