Chapter 46 Asher I sat and waited in my office for the new girl, while she waved her father off could not be behered dealing with tears, nor with her irritating father, in all honesty. My fine le had mentioned that the upcoming Beta from their pack was coming to collect is father, so there was no way in hell I planned to hang around in case the young guy was anything like his Dad Spending time with his Dad had been taxing enough, I did not need to be forced to spend time with two of them, the older version and the younger version F**k that So, I had told the new girl how to find my office, and to come and find me when the was done. Give her some privacy to say her goodbyes, and then I would continue this induction before leaving her to her own devices. The sooner, the better, in my opinion, for I had things to do, and having to art as friendly host was hurting my “Friendly host!” Zion chuckled, like he found my thoughts highly amusing Tod 1 blink and miss that bit Pi** off I warned him. ‘Or I will block you out too! Like you do half of the pack?’ he pushed: Why the hell I got a wolf with an attitude I don’t know Though Caleb says he kind of reminds him of me when I was younger, but I don’t know what he is talking about. I was nothing like that…. I lifted my coffee mug off the table and focused my eyes on the papers in front of me just as my office door opened. I looked up with a scowl. So, the new girl thought she was able to just wander into my office because I said she could come and find me here? She never heard of knocking Think she’s got some learning to do! Just as I was about to get her told, my Uncle strides into the office, that annoying smile upon his face. “Ah Asher, there you are!” he says, sounding far too cheerful for a morning. Though where the hell else he expected me to be, I have no clue. Not like I’d be on the beach with a c**ktail, is it? The new girl steps in behind him, looking more than a little awkward, and rightly so, just coming in here like this. “Not sure where else you would expect me to be Uncle” I said with a roll of my eyes. “Well, not leaving the young girl to find her way back night have been the gentlemanly thing to do.

you know? But then I don’t suppose you are a gentleman, are you? Or you have forgotten how to be. I had to help poor Bailey find her way here.” He tells me almost angrily, like I was the worst host ever Talking down to me like I was a naughty little schoolboy. Had he not worked it out? I didn’t want to be doing this “Well, I gave her directions.” I said with a shrug, completely disregarding my Uncle’s telling off. I had simply been expecting her and her wolf to have been able to find their way here between them. Evidently not. And that was not my fault. My Uncle shook his head at me and gave me a disgusted look. “I swear your mother had to have dropped you on your head, boy. She has just moved here, so she doesn’t know the pack. You are meant to be showing her around. Plus, he was upset because she had just said goodbye to her father and brother. Use that little pra inside of your head that you call a brain for something other than thinking up ways of being an a**” Balance 134.0 1 Coins 12:19 Wed Jul 31 G. Chapter 16 Asher Finished Alpha after all. have been taught to respect him, but goddess help me, does he irritate the c*p out of me sometimes! I don’t see how I did anything wrong. She said she would be time, so I took her at her word. If she suddenly realized she wasn’t, that was not my fault! I may be a bubbling pot of fury right now, but. Zion, however, could not be more chilled, he was once again chuckling, this time at my Uncle giving me a hard time. Seriously, I need a new wolf, one that actually shows some loyalty to me, not that laughs at everyone giving me s**t. “Lapologize, when Miss West said she would be okay, I assumed she would be.” I said with a dark glance in her direction, but she was now avoiding my gaze, but even from that momentary look I could see there were tears upon her face. Heaven knows why, it wasn’t like she was leaving them forever, they were a phone call away. She wasn’t going to war, though I think I would rather go to

war than work with kids “Well, try and find the gentleman within you, Asher, if he is still even there, and be nice. Bailey has had a diflicult day. She is a little upset because it is never easy having to say goodbye. So, go complete the induction, show her around our beautiful pack, all of it, and maybe even take her to dinner. Welcome her to our pack properly. We are lucky to have her here, so make sure she knows we appreciate her being here. My Uncle says with a smile upon his face, like he believed he had just come up with the most wonderful of ideas. Wait… what? Take her to f**g dinner? This was sounding more like a date than an induction now. I don’t think so. I signed up to a brief induction to pack, not a full-on, top of the range tour of the pack with me as tour guide and dimer included. And as for being lucky to have her here, how did they know until she actually started teaching? She could well be a terrible teacher for all they knew. If my Uncle wanted her to be treated like that, why the hell was he not doing it himself? But, in true Uncle form, he walked out of my office, that irritating smile upon his face, humming that song he likes to himself, leaving me and the new girl alone. I looked across to her awkwardly. I hope she is not expecting all the things my Uncle just mentioned, because she would be sorely disappointed… S
