Chapter 61 – Bailey
I had no choice but to ept the help of the most irritating man ever, and we were walking through
the forest together. He stomped heavily through the trees, evidently knowing where he was going.
Which I could not lie, was definitely a good thing, because without Akira here with me, I had no clue
where I was going! Of all the times for her to go off in a huff, now was definitely not an ideal time…
“Were you on patrol?” I asked. I only spoke because I was hating the awkward silence between us,
but at the same time I so desperately not wanting to talk to him either. “Will you get in trouble for
leaving?”
“Yes I was, but nah I shouldn’t think so. Found some loner wandering in the forest, so I am bringing
her back to pack for interrogation. Don’t think they can argue with me on that one.” He winked at
me.
“Interrogation?” I rolled my eyes.
“Hmm, well, your name could be a start?” he grinned.
“Oh.” I felt my cheeks heating at his joke, he had clearly been teasing me, and that had worked. He
was such a d**k. “Bailey.” “Well, Bailey, nice to meet you. I am Marc.” He offered me his hand, but I
chose to ignore it, not willing to shake his hand after he had done nothing since meeting me but
tease me, and going off his response, he had found great pleasure in it too!

He looked at me a little ufortable before slipping his hand into his pocket and muttering,
“Sorry.”
I felt bad about how guilty he looked, and realized I had likely offended him now. Dammit, I was
being grumpy, and I knew I was…” No, it is fine, I am sorry. Just me being grumpy I guess.” I
admitted with a sigh…
“You missing home?” he asked and I shrugged,
“Worried about home, more like, but nobody is telling me much.” I said without really thinking, as I
focused on not tripping over again. I think tripping over once in front of this guy is enough for
today…
“Oh, that doesn’t sound good. S***t going down there, is it?” he questioned, though I didn’t note any
judgment in his tone.
I shrugged, not sure if to give him any further information. “It isplicated.”
“That your way of telling me to mind my own business?” he chuckled, and I smiled. “You are brave
heading out here on your own then if things are not great back home.”
“Thanks.” I smiled at him again, not even willing to tell him it was a case of needing to get away
from there now.
“So, are you excited about the new job then? They have been looking for a new teacher for what
seems like forever!” he told me with a smile. “My Mum works there.” he added, as if he felt the need
to exin why he knew that.
“Really?” I looked at him in surprise, feeling suddenly bad for being horrible to the son of the woman
who would soon be my

colleague.
“Yep, good ol’ Mrs Sullivan.” He grinned. “Sure she will be happy to have you there.”
“We will see when I get there, I may be terrible!” I told him with a wry smile, and he gave me a
shake of his head, as we crossed over the road from the forest heading toward the main part of the
pack. I knew had Marc not helped me it would have taken me forever to find my way here, because
I still had no clue how we had got here!
“I highly doubt that, or Alpha Caleb would not have taken you on, they have been pretty fussy. Trust
me, I would know, I heard it all from my Mum!” he grinned at me, and I found myself smiling back.
“You are weird.” I told him with a roll of my eyes, and he chuckled.
“Got me sussed.” He suddenly h**d his, arm around my shoulder in what appeared to be a yful
gesture, giving me a squeeze,pletely taking me by surprise. “And you have known me about
ten minutes!”
I looked up at him, curious at what he thought he was doing, when a deep voice from across the
road suddenly disturbed us. “Get your hands off her.”
Instantly, Marc’s arm slipped from around my shoulder, and I saw fear cross his handsome features,
telling me he knew that voice. He looked at me anxiously before looking in the direction of the angry
sounding voice, as I too looked up, only to be met by the angry stare of Asher. Why the hell was he
being like that?

been helping her find her way back to pack.”
“She has only just arrived Marc, I am sure she does not need your womanizing ways interfering with
her life.” Asher snapped, and I saw Marc’s face flush, looking guilty. But, despite the fact he may be
adies’ man, my anger raced that Beta Asher was being so rude towards him, not to mention
interfering in who I was talking to… What is it to do with Beta Asher if I choose to talk to him?
“Would that not be my decision, Beta?” I questioned and both their eyes darted to me, a look of
surprise on Marc’s face, and one of anger on Asher’s face.
A dark scowl appeared upon Asher’s face as he looked to Marc. He looked like he was ready to kill
someone…
“You have been here a matter of days, and you have already found yourself a recement for the
guy you hoped to be your chosen mate that found his fated, I see?” he looked at me as he spoke
icily, and his words hit me hard…
I stood in shock at his words while Marc looked at me awkwardly, my whole body was trembling, so
desperate toe back with a good argument, but, I needed to get away. I could not believe this
nasty f**r could throw such an evilment at me when he knew how much I had been struggling
with the situation with Harley. His kind words after had made me think there was a nice guy inside
his tough exterior after all. Ha… Evidently, he wasn’t the nice guy I was starting to think he was.
I didn’t want to be there a moment longer, because I could feel tears pr*g in my eyes, so as fast as I
could, I rushed away from the two of them. To hear Marc exining that he thoughtThis belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
the Beta was out of order and that he had simply been helping me find my way back to pack. But I
am past caring. I would be staying out of Beta Asher’s way.
