Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

Chapter 0185

| was settling into the new pack. My home. The pack | would one day be Luna of. Okay, it wasn't quite what | was

used to, but once Miles had been made Alpha, he said | could make the changes | wanted, so | was making notes

each day of things I did not like... things I felt could be improved, and quite honestly, there was quite a lot. | was

staying in a room within the packhouse right now, until Miles and | were married. He had tried desperately to

havelive with him, but | felt it was a little premature, and | didn't want him trying things on with me. Not yet,

at least.

Obviously, on our wedding night, | would have no choice, but for the tbeing, at least | had an excuse. And,

talking of the wedding, plans were running away with themselves. Miles's parents were completely taking over

with the preparations. And they seemed to be getting more and more irritated by any suggestions | made for

alterations. Which only angered me. This was meant to be my special day, yet they seemed to want the wedding

done their way. | was truly beginning to regret ever agreeing to any of this, let alone suggesting | marry the fool

as well as becoming his mate...

I heard a knock at my door, and quickly walked over, to be greeted by two she-wolves, here to lettry on

wedding dresses. Now, today was a day | had been looking forward to! What woman does not like trying on

pretty dresses?! Especially ones that make you look like a princess! "Cin." | said excitedly, allowing them

into my suite, only to find my heart dropping as Miles's Mum, Pheobe, followed them in. Why did she need to be

there too? Was this not my choice?

"Good morning, Kaia." She greetedcoldly, givingan equally cold stare. | am sure this woman did not like

me. Nor did she wantto marry her son.

"Morning Luna." | smiled sweetly, though inside | was secretly cursing the silly old witch. | wish she would piss

off, so | could enjoy myself the way | had planned! The bottle of champagne my Dad had sent to enjoy was

already chilling, and | had my playlist at the ready... | had it all set out! Now she was set to ruin it! | wanted to

enjoy every moment of this, try these dresses on at my own pace and decide on my own what | wanted and not

be dictated to by her, yet again. This was not her wedding!

“Right, let us get this underway." Luna Pheobe said briskly to the women who had wheeled in a rack of dresses.

“I am assuming white is unlikely to be appropriate." She looked atwith an air of superiority in her gaze, and |

was shocked at what she was trying to imply by her statement.

| glared back at her. "White is perfectly fine, actually, thank you very much." | snapped.

"Oh, really?" she said, chewing her lower lip thoughtfully. "You do surprise me, unless, of course, you are not

being truthful."

"Is there a reason you are here?" | asked her, every ounce of venom withinslipping out in my voice, and Luna

Pheobe looked to me, a smirk upon her perfectly made-up face. She was evidently loving this. Stupid bitch.

“Well, | was here to assist the bride my son had chosen, with picking a dress. Ensure she doesn't get ideas

beyond her station. After all, she has been acting like quite the princess since her arrival. Well, since the whole

wedding planning began really. So, | believe she needs to be taught how to rein things in a little. My son needs a

Luna, not a princess." She said bluntly. "But, it seems the little princess is deemingas not needed. Or

perhaps my opinions are too close to the truth. Does the truth hurt a little too much, Kaia?"

I looked at her in shock. Where had

all this cfrom? Yes, | knew my alterations to the wedding plans had irritated Miles's parents here and there,

but not to this degree. She was being downright rude right now, and there appeared to be no real reason for it.

So, what was her issue with me? Her mate and husband had high on beggedto marry and becthe mate

to their eldest son, when nobody else appeared to want him, so why the hell did this stupid old hag not deem me

a suitable mate? | was of Alpha blood, | was single. | was more than capable of dealing with their pathetic excuse

of a future Alpha of a son when he threw one of his hissy fits too. Better equipped for dealing with him than they

were, it seemed...

"When there is no truth in your words, then they irritate more than hurt quite honestly, Luna. | find them quite

insulting, actually. But, that makeswonder if that was what you were aiming for. And there wasthinking

you were taught to be respectful of all, as a Luna. Evidently, you missed that lesson. At the end of the day, age is

irrelevant, | am still of Alpha blood, and while may be in line to marry your son, my father would still not

appreciate the insults you are throwing my way, nor the things you are implying." | said proudly, knowing damn

well she was out of order, andputting her in her place would likely shut her up.

But, instead, Luna Pheobe simply laughed at me! | felt anger racing through my body, while my wolf began to

ripple below my skin, desperate to be allowed out... eager to get to the woman who would soon becmy

mother-in-law and rip her apart...
