Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

Chapter 0219

I had so many well-wishers come to congratulate me and Miles on our wedding, my head felt like it was spinning! The wedding ceremony was complete, as was the meal afterward. My Dad kept looking at me with a proud smile, and for once, I actually felt his approval and his pride in me, and it felt good. He looked happy with me, which was a rarity.

Miles had barely let go of my hands, showering me with compliments, telling me how much he was looking forward to our wedding night. I can't say that I was, considering the emptiness his kiss had brought to me... the wedding night brought little hope! He was showing me off like a fucking prize right now, and quite honestly it irritated me. Because I wanted to be anywhere but with him.

"Aww, you look beautiful Kaia." Mile's brother Ellis said to me with a smile. "You ready for married life now?" he asked me with a cheeky wink, but I simply shrugged. I wasn't sure that I was. I had held off having to live with Miles whilst the wedding was planned and I was within his pack, but now we were actually married, I don't think I could hold him off any longer.

I saw Ellis watching me through slightly narrowed eyes, which made me feel uncomfortable. I nudged Miles with my elbow to make him aware of how his brother was looking at me, because I knew things were still difficult between the two of them. Hell, he had complained about him often enough to me when we had spoken about his family.

"You going to stop looking at my wife like she is a piece of meat, Ellis?" Miles said haughtily. "I know Hazel is getting a bit round now with the baby growing and all, but that doesn't give you the right to be eyeing up my own mate." he added with a smirk upon his face. I don't think for a moment that was what Ellis had been doing, but Miles had said it to rile him up, I knew that, as did he. He was so childish. Such a dick.

A small snarl slipped from Ellis.

"That was not what I was doing,

Kaia, and you know it wasn't, I would

hope. My brother likes to cause drama. Enjoy the rest of your day" He quickly strode away, and as turned to look at Miles he had a sly smirk upon his face. He had enjoyed doing that. I gave him a disgusted look.

“You are pathetic, you know that?” I muttered.

"Aww, why? It was good fun." He chuckled, as I went to move away, but gripped my hand a little tighter. "You nudged me, obviously not liking how he looked at you, and quite honestly I didn't like how he looked at you either. But, don't ask for my help if you don't like how I deal with people it is quite simple, Kaia He raised his brows at me as if to challenge me, and I felt my stomach churning at the sight. This was the third or fourth time since the ceremony he had spoken down to me, and I did not like it. Not in the slightest. I was beginning to wonder where the sweet guy who had near enough begged me to marry him had gone. Because the man in front of me was a hell of a lot similar to the guy who had first turned up at our treatment center... Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"I am going to the toilet." I told him quietly, knowing that was the only way he would give me any space. Space I so desperately craved. And he nodded.

"Don't be long, I want another dance. Show the pack what a beautiful mate I have." He smiled sweetly at me, and I felt my stomach clenching at the thought. I wasn't so sure he did care for me after all. He saw me as a trophy and nothing else...
