Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

Chapter 0238

I was ready to rip that fucker’s head from his body when he mentioned that Ellis would be securing his position as Alpha if I did not get my ass into gear and go to help my Dad. My Dad was the fucking Alpha, he had forever dictated to us how powerful that made him. Forever had lectured us on how in control that made him, how strong… so if he was all of those things, surely he should be able to clean up a little mess of mine?! It couldn’t be that difficult!

As for Ellis securing his position as Alpha, that was a fucking joke. He was too weak. Too empathetic. He was not Alpha material and never had been. Mum and Dad had forever focused their attention on me growing up, with me being their eldest child and their heir. Pushing me to train harder. To prove myself. And it meant I was the one that was capable. Ruthless. Dominant. I was idolized in the pack. I was the one that should be taking that Alpha role. Ellis was a poor second. He would never be me.

But, as much as my anger lingered, and the hate for my brother ached within me, I had to stay focused. I had my mind set upon a mission right now, and being distracted by Thing 1 and Thing 2 could not happen. They were determined to stay with me and take me with them back to the packhouse, likely at the request of my Dad or my Uncle. But, it could not happen. Going back to the packhouse would end in disaster. A delay I simply did not need. I needed to leave the pack. I needed to go and find Bailey. She was my priority right now. Not the mess the cheap little whore I had selected as a wife had caused…

And as for the mention of the Werewolf Council, I could not risk them being involved. That was another reason returning to the packhouse could not happen. My temper would cause me to lash out if I went there to deal with Kaia and her family. Seeing her face hurt. Reminded me of all the hopes I had held for the future we could have had together. How naïve I had been! She had fed me false hopes all along, and I had been crazy enough to fall for them. Seeing her now would mean the pain she caused turned to anger. And that would cause chaos. Destruction.

Therefore, my Dad, my uncle and potentially even my brother needed to fix this for me. They were the only ones who could deal with it in a sensible way. Without further blood being shed. Because I know if it was left to me, I would not be able to guarantee I did not harm somebody else. And, then there would be no avoiding the Werewolf Council being summoned. I can not have the Werewolf Council here. They would find too much on me… seeing I was not capable of being an Alpha. Potentially even lock me up… at least this way, I still stood a chance.

‘Stay focused. We are stronger than them all.’ Jet growled deeply at me, not appreciating me waivering at the fear of the Werewolf Council. Bringing me back to my focus. I needed her. I needed Bailey with me to bring me strength. Maybe even calm me…

“I will come. But first, I need to go and put some clothes on. Give me a minute.” I suggested to Jordan, hoping he would see that what I said made sense. It wasn’t like I could go to the packhouse naked and deal with this, and then face the pack members with my bits hanging out…

Jordan nodded. “Be quick then.” Good, he seemed to have listened, and I quickly rushed toward the family home. Rushing to my room, picking up a small bag, I stuffed in some loose shorts and a t- shirt. Before picking up my wallet from the desk, having assumed I wouldn’t need it today. Oh, how wrong I was! How naive I had been to assume this day would go to plan... that I could ever have a happy ever after with that she-wolf. She had never been worthy of me... maybe fate had known all along what I needed.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
