Chapter 47 Bailey Oh goddess, the happy one’s face at the things his Uncle and former Alpha had suggested
looked like he had suggested be allowedto go and s**t on his bed or something. Beta Asher was not exactly
doing much to hide his displeasure at the suggestion. Though Lam quickly learning this man does not have many
friendly facial expressions anyway, but the one currently upon his face looked like he wanted to go and attack his
Uncle. Who, incidentally, had wandered out of the room happily humming to himself like he was extremely
pleased with himself. Something toldhe enjoyed irritating the Beta Not that it didany favors, as it now
leftalone with the big bundle of happiness, unsure what to do or what to say, and now the room was in a
very awkward silence. In all honesty, | didn’t particularly want to be spending that much twith the Beta, so
the things the former Alpha had suggested sounded h**nd**s, but | remained with a neutral expression upon my
face to be polite. Evidently not a skill Mr Cheerful here had discovered. “Erm...” Beta Asher began, avoiding my
gaze, looking anywhere he could within the room other than at me. How was this a fully grown man? He had no
people skills..... “It is fine.” | said sharply, instantly irritated by his actions. “I do not expect any of that.” | told

either.... | heard a big sigh of relief from the Beta while Akira was chuckling in my mind. Did he think we would
want to spend twith him?’ she says. “I don’t think my brain could take it. Imagine all the happiness!” she
adds sarcastically. And she sure has a point. Once | have my induction, | think he will be one | avoid within the
pack. “Erm...” Beta Asher began again, sounding both uncomfortable and awkward, but he seemed determined
to explain himself. “Erm, it is just that | have work to do as well as this induction.” He says with what | could only
describe as an uncomfortable expression upon his face. “Is he constipated or is he trying to smile? Akira asked,
and | had to bite my lip to stop myself
smiling at her words. “Either way, | don’t believe a word of it He is the Beta, so he probably does have work to
do. | told her. “If he is as good as he so clearly believes he is, and acts like he is, then a break to give you your
induction wouldn't affect his work. Akira says with a chuckle. She seemed to find the behavior of this new Beta
quite amusing, to say the least. I, however, find him quite irritating. “I can wait for the induction until Luna Eden
is better if that would be easier for you? Less of an inconvenience to you.” | told him, standing awkwardly by the
door. He stood up quickly from his desk, makingstep back a little. “Did | say this was an inconvenience?” he
snapped. Okay, | seemed to have angered the beast. Akira growled within my mind his temper. She wasn’t
finding him quite so amusing now. My heart was pounding, and | felt a little intimidated by this grumpy f**r in
front of me. | took a deep breath. “It isn’t always what you say, Beta Asher, sometimes actions speak louder than
words.” | told him, my voice a little wobbly. And his actions since | had arrived had more than toldhe would

that is the case, | apologize. Shall we go and begin this induction, Miss West? Because | wasn’t actually lying

seemed genuinely sorry, and | obviously did not know he was taking on additional work so his friend and the
pack Alpha could be there for his pregnant mate. Don’t feel sorry for him. He will make you feel guilty, then be
an a** again. Either that or he'll just eat you because you got on his nerves or looked at him the wrong way!
Akira says with a weird little chuckle, like she found herself funny. Well she would have to find herself funny,
because right now | wasn’t. “You can callBailey, you know?” | told him. having wondered why he kept calling
rather make the situation feel less formal and more friendly. “I will try to remember. He says curtly. | don’t think
this guy knows how to do friendly. “Did Eden,
sorry. Luna Eden show you the school when you cfor your interview?” he asked, like he was trying to change
the subject quickly. “Briefly.” | answered. -We could go and look at the school properly if you wish. | imagine you
would like to see where you will be working. | know | would. It is a lovely little school for the younger children.”
Beta Asher explained, and | am actually surprised he had thought of it in that way, but | had been desperate to
get to the school and have a proper look around, see where my new workplace would be, so he had definitely
not been wrong in his words. | smiled and nodded in response. “Is Luna Eden okay, do you know?” | asked. “Just
the baby causing issues, she struggles in the later stages. She did with their first too, though not quite this
much. The doctor said perhaps because of her smaller build. It will all be worth it when their little one is here.
But. | don’t think that helps her when she is finding the pregnancy difficult and suffering. She says she won't
have anymore, but she said that after Matty, so | do not bank on that.” he says as we walk through the
packhouse, his voice is quite calming when you listen to him talking. Animated and interesting, but when I find
myself glancing across at him. there looks to be little or no emotion upon his face nor within his eyes. Like he is
dead inside.
