| honestly think she had begun to suspect something was going on between the two of us. But, Asher seemed
reluctant to talk about this with her, and after we had spoken about it, | could understand why. It was a difficult
subject to broach. And, I didn't want to be the one that pressured him to do so.
| smiled at Alli. "Not quite. He had cto discuss my sister arriving. She is struggling back at hat the
moment. Issues of the heart, unfortunately. So, she needed taway. Beta Asher had cto confirm her
arrival with me." | lied, but Alli didn't need to know that, after all, Morgan would be arriving soon enough, so that
much was true, and Alli would likely see her within pack.
"Aww, | am sorry to hear she is struggling. Young love is never an easy thing to control. Well, love in general, |
suppose." and her eyes wander to Asher, and | wonder if she was implying deeper meaning with her words as
she continues. "lI am sure staway with her big sister will help. It is kind of you to allow her to cand
stay Beta." She nodded at Asher, and he simply smiled.
"You two seem to get along quite well." Alli said after a few moments of silence, and | smiled awkwardly.

"We bump into one another sometimes in the packhouse, so we do chat sometimes." | dismissed her implications
with what | hoped would indicate nothing was going on.
Alli nodded, yet her eyes were on Asher, who was looking uninterested out of the window. Evidently he was
choosing not to get involved in the conversation today. Maybe my reaction the other day had made him a little
more wary...
"It is always nice to make friends where you are staying. Anyway, | shall leave you both to it. I have just cin
to see if you have seen the closure dates for next week, Bailey?" Alli asked, and | nodded, a notification had been
sent out to the pack schoolthey had set up. Not to mention, | received emails regarding my working hours.
The closures were to do with the party for the Alpha and Luna's new baby.
"Good stuff." Alli walked back out of the classroom, with a wave in my direction, before Asher looked at me.
"Now who was making excuses forbeing here?" He pouted at me.
"lI assumed you would ratherdo that, than explain why." | smiled, and he grinned.
"So, can | walk you home, before your sister arrives?" he offeredhis hand, an almost pleading look upon his
face. How could I resist?
There were still things | needed to do in the classroom, but | could do them tomorrow morning, because it wasn't
like I would be staying in bed to spend twith Asher. So, | took his hand, Akira purring at such a simple action,
both of us happy to spend a little more twith him alone. "Con then."
And as we walked out of the side door of my classroom, into the sunshine, | felt a sense of
contentment pass overas we began to walk down the path toward the main area of the pack. But, as we did
Asher tuggedinto the trees sitting alongside the path. His hands slipped around my waist the moment we
were in the shade of the trees. He movedgently to lean my back against a tree, before his lips were softy
and tantalizingly teasing at my neck.
"Mmmm" he murmured against my skin, his warm breath sending goosebumps across my body. "Do you realize
just how much I have missed you today?"
| giggled. “No, I'd say perhaps you could show me, but seeing as we are outside, that may be a bad idea."
He chuckled, before he nipped lightly at my neck, before continuing to kiss me, his lips and tongue teasing at the
skin of my neck. "Oohh you are
bad... se so bad." His lips Touret
mine, as his tongue parted my lips, to begin swirling in an enticing way that madedesperately want more...
| reached up to run my hand through his thick, dark hair, pulling him closer to deepen the kiss. As he gripped my
butt. His breath quickened, as he pulled away. "What tis your sister arriving?"
"Soon." | admitted reluctantly, knowing instantly he was hoping to go to one of our rooms to continue what had
begun this morning, and where this could so easily continue to...
He sighed, running his hand through his own hair in frustration. "Dammit." He winked. "Best we stop then, while
we still can."
| smiled up at him almost adoringly. This guy had to be the most patient one | had met. "Sorry." | stepped up on
my tiptoes to reach up and softly kiss his cheek.
His hand hooked under my chin as | moved away, turning my face to his, so his lips softly met mine, only briefly,
but so tenderly, it made my heart flutter. "Don't apologize. | know it will be worth waiting for, beautiful."
