Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

58

Chapter 58 - Miles | have no clue what day it actually is now. | do the things in pack. expected ofthe best |

can, avoiding most people as much as possible. But | escaped as soon as | could to have a drink. Quite simply,

drinking has beca normal part of my routine, and I did not know what | would do without it now. But, the

thing with being a werewolf was alcohol had little effect in small amounts. So, | had to drink larger amounts. And

the more | drank, and my body adjusted to it, the more | had to drink to gain the seffect. This pack felt like

nothing but a constant pressure upon my life | did not want. Yet the power that cwith it was too good to

walk away from. That was the only thing stoppingfrom handing over my title to Ellis. He would likely make a

better Alpha than me. He was more sensible. More kind and caring. More logical. And, of course, now he had the

perfect f**g fated mate too. Me, on the other hand, had none of those things. And never would either. | am sure

Jordan walked away fromthe other night. | can’t quite remember, but | have a memory of it, so | believe it

happened, though it may have been a dream... who knows? The drink makes it hard to tell sometimes the

difference between reality and imaginary... One thing | do know, is he ignored my calls too. He was picking that

new w**e in his life over me. Was that how he thought things would be? | didn’t like that. Jordan was my closest

friend. My closest ally. Had been since we were small. He was going to be my Beta. We have always been

together. So, why was it all of a sudden | was second best 09 40 Chapter 58-Miles 268 Wouchers to some

second-rate bimbo that had appeared in his life? He surely realized without me, he had no title? No claim to the

Beta role... He neededmore than he needed scheap. woman! It wasn’t like he and | had ever struggled

to pick up women when going out together, so why could he not just be content with that? Be a decent friend to

me? My f**g Dad had not listened towhen I had told him that Uncle Donovan had manipulated him with the

whole Bailey situation. | explained the whole sorry mess. Telling him in detail why she

needed to be here, obviously not the real reason, as he could never know she had ever been fated to me. That

would be the worst possible outcome. My Dad had always taken my opinion into consideration before, but this

time, he simply laughed in my face! Laughed in my f¥*g face and toldto get over it. That Uncle Donovan had

consulted him and it was fine. So, | needed to find sother way to bring her back... “Miles?” My Dad yelled as

he walked into the house, while | tried to nap on the sofa. “Hmm.” | grumbled, already sick of him, having

managed to avoid him as much as possible over the last few days. Getting sick of lectures about my drinking

and attitude. Since when was he f*g g***d? | was a grown man. Was | not capable of making my own choices? If

| want to drink, that should be my choice... “Sit up.” He ordered. “Think | am good.” | muttered, staying where |

was, laid out, with my eyes shut, no intention of moving for him just to please him. | am sure the lecture he no

doubt wanted to givecould wait for another time. It was no doubt a repeat of the sone he 04.40 Chapter

58-Miles 288 Wouchers seemed to have on replay. About responsibility... behavior... Alpha role... expectations...

boring... boring... boring. “I suggest you move before | move you.” My Dad ordered again, and this t| sat

myself up and looked at him. He looked. f**g furious. What the hell had got into him lately? Mum suddenly

decided to shut up shop and stop giving it up to him, and he had turned into a sex-starved moody b**d? That

was not my issue, and did not need to be taken out on me... | rolled my eyes at him. “What is wrong?” And just

as | spoke, my Mum walked in, her eyes falling to my Dad and then to me. “We doing this now?” she asked my

Dad, makingall the more cautious. What the hell were they were talking about? Whatever it was they had

evidently spoken about previously. “I think it is time.” Dad said, looking at mum with a nod, motioning for her to

sit herself down in the

armchair where she always sits, especially for all her favorite shows. “Anyone going to tellwhat the f**k is

going on?” | snapped, suddenly feeling angry at the fact that it felt like my family were keeping things from me.

“Yes, if you actually give us a moment. We are concerned about your behavior lately, Miles. Sinformation we

learned has made us even more concerned.” Dad began, and instantly my mind was whirring into gear,

wondering what information they had learned and from whom. | would kill whoever had given them information

aboutthat put my reputation into doubt. “So, we are not permitting you to becAlpha. You need to seek

treatment. Then we might consider it. Also, you need to find a mate. Obviously, it will now be a chosen one,

won't it? 1288 Vouch Seeing as you rejected the mate fated to you by the moon. goddess, breaking one of the

rules given to you as an Alpha.” My Dad barked out once more, but | don’t care for him right now. It is his words

that get to me. They hitlike a spear through my chest. Someone told him | rejected Bailey... “Who the f**k

told you that?!” | roared, standing from my seat. My Dad stood to meet me. “You want to fightMiles? When

ninety-five percent of the tyou are inebriated, right now? | wouldn't advise it. Even when you are fully sober,

| am still stronger. | can see your brain ticking. You are in doubt now. Wondering who betrayed you, right? You

want to know who told me? Your pack. People who were concerned for the safety of their pack. Because it seems

their upcoming Alpha has let his power go to his head. And trust me, as an Alpha, that is the worst thing he can

do. So it is about the reins his neck in, and sorts himself out, or he will not be becoming Alpha after all. |

thought | had taught you better than that. But, | am telling you something, Miles. | will not tolerate this s**t. | will

not put my pack at risk because of you. Never!” My hands trembled in anger. He dared to threatenwith

taking my title away? Something was born to inherit? Something | have lived toward earning my whole f+*g life?!

Sf**ker within my pack had betrayedin speaking up... But | know my Dad is right. | cannot take him. He

is stronger, and my head does not feel fully with it at the best of times. My wolf has barely been with it for days.

And | swear that is because Bailey has been gone. That was why she needed to be back. Why did they not see

that?!

“This is not right. You wantmarried off and getting anger management?” | demanded, because that was the

only logical

treatment | could imagine they meant. | knew my anger had grown out of control and was something my parents

were so frequently mentioning... “Pretty much.” My Dad said. “Or you will not be the next Alpha, got it?”
