Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

Chapter 0263

My eyes met his, and he was looking at me full of concern. I could see no judgment in his gaze. 'I mean it, Asher. Me and Mum would never look at you any differently for choosing to move on. You have stayed so loyal to Isla's memory, but you do not have to be alone forever. I saw the connection between you and Bailey from the start. I think Mum did too. She is one hell of a girl. I think Isla would like her. Don't let this go, because you are worried about what others are thinking, or because you feel guilty. It is time to think of you, ok? Isla would want you to be happy.’

I bit my lower lip, deep in thought. Hid words meant a lot. There would always be guilt. Of course there would. That was the reason I had battled my feelings for as long as I had been. Why I had denied them for as long as I had. But, without ever intending to, I had fallen for Bailey. 'I love her, Marc.' 'I know you do.' He linked with a smile.

I turned to see Morgan stroking her sister's hair back from her face, before pulling up her eyelids, making me wonder what in the hell she was doing, but Marc got there first. "Erm, Morgan, what are you doing?"NôvelDrama.Org © content.

"Just seeing if she would wake up." She said, like it was the most normal thing in the world to do to someone in a hospital bed that was unconscious. "Used to work when she was a kid."

Marc held back a smile. "I think the fact she is unconscious may be slightly different to when she was pretending to be asleep as a kid, darling."

Morgan shrugged, like she believed her logic had been completely valid, and even had to smile a little. Bailey's sister was certainly unique. "What did the doctor say?" she looked at me, and now I could see the concern upon her face.

"Just a case of waiting for her to recover, basically. Hoping for the best." I explained, and she nodded, so I looked toward Marc. "Any news from the warriors?"

"They only found a couple of rogues,

but they are unsure if they were involved. So Alpha is going to interrogate them to find out. But there was definitely more than they brought in, I know that much. It was such a mess. I am just sorry Llet you down, bro." and in his words, hot to mention the devastation upon his face, I could see he was ridden with guilt. He was forever going to struggle with this. I was unsure if he would forgive himself over this. I didn't want that for him.

“Marc, this is not your fault. We know who is to blame for this. And we will ensure he gets the punishment he deserves." I said with determination. The words were as much for my benefit as they were Marc's...

"Oh, about that, Dad messaged." Morgan said, as she continued to stroke her sister's hair. "They have warriors out hunting for that sick fucker. But, even better, my Uncle, or the Alpha, if you like, has seen that things are not repairable anymore. That Miles is not a fix-it-up project he is capable of doing a botch repair on, He has seen things cannot be fixed. Not that I think they ever could, so Ellis is going to be made Alpha. And he has called the Werewolf Council to report the incidents with Miles. He will be handed over to them to deal with him. So, he will more than get the punishment he deserves."

And I have to say, they have to be some of the best words I had to have heard in a long time. We just need Bailey to wake up to share in the good news now...
