| waved off the last little ones from my class at the end of another fun day in school. Two days in, and | was
loving this place more and more. The children were a constant source of happiness and | could not help but smile
in their company, despite how broken | had been feeling inside, and Alli and Gabby were both very sweet ladies
too. Both tried their hardest to makefeel welcome. Thankfully, there were no more unexpected visits from
Asher today. After last night, | don’t think | could cope with them. | could only imagine what he must be thinking.
| had barely slept once | had coff the phone to the Luna. Tossing and turning, thinking of everything Miles
had said. | didn’t know why he had decided to reach out to me. | planned to message my brother once | was back
in my room today to let him know everything. Also, it would givea chance to try to discover if anything else
was happening in pack and if any more progress had been made. Because, for sreason, nobody seemed to
want to keepupdated.
“Hey Bailey.” Gabby stuck her head in the doorway of my classroom. “Everything ok today?” She questioned as
she watchedtidying my classroom.

“Yeah, all was good.” | smiled back at her.
“Good stuff.” She walked away, leavingin peace to prepare my lessons for tomorrow, before I finished work
for the day. | didn’t really feel in the mood for sitting chatting and gossiping in the staff room like her and Alli
seemed to. | wanted to be alone, especially right now. | know that wasn’t the best way to establish my place
within the school, but for now it was going to be the way it was, because thanks to Miles, my head was simply
not in the right place.
It didn’t take long forto have my work done once I got into it, and withfully focused on it. So, | picked up
my things and walked out of my classroom and headed for the main door of the school. “Aww, are you off
sweetheart?” Allis voice called from behind me, as | turned, | saw her standing at the doorway of the staffroom
watching me.
“Yeah, all done for the day.” | told her with a smile. “Will see you tomorrow.”
She nodded, returning my smile. “You look tired. Get hand put your feet up. You wantto get Marc to
bring your dinner to your room?” she suggested, takingby surprise. Was she trying to find excuses for Marc
to spend twith me? That seemed a little odd...
“No, thanks for offering, but | will be fine.” | told her, definitely not liking the idea of a man I barely know coming
to my room.
Alli grinned in response. “What about the Beta? | am sure he would be happy to help?”
| frowned. Here it was again. The implication there was something betweenand Asher. All because Luna Eden
had urged him to cand check on me. Anyone could see that man was far from interested in me. In anyone, |
would say. So why Alli and Gabby felt the need to keep going on about it, | didn’t know, but it was beginning to
irritate me, “Most definitely not the Beta, thank you.” | snapped, before pushing open the main school door, only
to hear chuckling from the staff room, no doubt Gabby and Alli finding my response highly amusing.
“You best not be telling them King Sociable invited you back to his lair to share his chocolate stash then.” Akira
decided to begin with her little quips, as | began walking along the path from school. ‘imagine the !
Because | imagine he doesn’t do that for just anybody.”
| rolled my eyes at the rubbish my wolf was wittering. She seemed to like windingup. Though last night she
was the one whimpering over Asher, if | am not mistaken...
‘Don’t even go there, Akira, or | will put a block up with you again.” | warned her.
‘Think the happy one is rubbing off on you, you know? You have been putting a block ona whole lot more
since meeting him.’ she tells me.
“Akira...” | warned, to be greeted by a giggle.
‘Just saying.” She giggled. ‘He gets happier, more smiley, and you get more grumpy. Go figure.’
| decided to ignore my wolf and her little digs, while I increased my speed as | walked through the pack, enjoying
the late afternoon sunshine, as | saw a few of the children from school playing in the nearby play area, squealing
in fun, makingsmile. | turned along the nearby road that led to the pack hospital, having promised Luna
Eden | would call in to visit her after work today.
