Chapter 7 Bailey
I sat at the coffee table painting my nails when my brother Jordan came storming into the room. “What the f**k have you been doing?” he snarled at me.
I glanced at him with a sideways glance. “Hi to you too big brother.” I smiled sarcastically, this being the first time seeing him since I had returned.
“Do not big brother me Bailey!” he snaps, throwing himself down on the sofa next to me. “What the f**k did you do to Miles.”
Was he having a laugh? What did I do to Miles? He says it like I attacked him! Or pounced on him… He is the upcoming Alpha for f**ks sake! It is not like he is unable to defend himself… though I should have known he would go running to my brother to tell tales. Stir sh it like he always did. Make me look like the bad one.

I shook my head. “Oh, that was because I was a little sarcastic this morning when I saw them in the garden. Both acting like they were Go d’s gifts.”
“Bailey, they are the equivalent of Go d’s gift to you and the rest of the pack. They are the Alpha’s sons. Of Alpha blood. The future Alpha. So why the f**k are you disrespecting them?!” Jordan’s voice is booming with anger.
“Hey! What is all the shouting about in here?” My Mum called through from the kitchen, but she didn’t actually come into the lounge to see what Jordan was shouting for. She would no doubt take his side, she always did. She thought the sun shone out of his rear end.
“Bailey doing Bailey things. Being the social pariah she has always been. The failure to the family. as always.” Jordan says with a roll of his eyes. “A makeover doesn’t change what you are, you
