Beauty 106

Chapter 106 – Kaia I adjusted my hair, looking at my reflection in the mirror. I liked the new pink tone to my hair. A newme. I think it looked good. I needed a fresh start. Jacob had decided I was not the one for him, andhad discarded me for some other she-wolf in the pack, so I was done. Hurting, but I needed tofocus. I was stronger than a feeble, pathetic she-wolf who crumbled at the cheating s**m of aboyfriend telling you that he was ending things to be with the bit on the side he had been seeingbehind your back for months. There was a heavy knock at my door. “Kaia, darling, your Dad is still waiting downstairs, don’t bekeeping him waiting too long.” My Mum called, and I rolled my eyes at her. Jeez, they don’t give mefive minutes to myself. My Dad had literally called half an hour ago to request to see me. Heseemed to believe I could magically create myself a portal to appear there in front of him themoment he demanded me there. Fully dressed and ready to see him. I had no clue what this wasabout, but if he was requesting a talk it had to be important, or otherwise he would just call in to thetreatment center and catch me on one of my breaks. That was his usual tactic when he wanted mefor something. It was rare he was ever particularly bothered by me. The joys of having so many children, Isuppose. It is difficult to keep up with them all, especially when you were an Alpha and had so manyresponsibilities. “Yes Mum, I am coming now.” I rushed to the door, adjusting my yoga pants and matching croppedtop before I did. I planned to 0.00% 111 O 09.08 Chapter 106-Kaia 288 iVouchers head to the gym once I had seen him. Today was my late start at work, and I planned to take out

some of my frustration from the situation with Jacob out on the punchbags. Imagining it was his facewould be a good start… “Oh, is that what you are wearing?” My Mum questioned the moment she saw me, and I looked ather in shock. Forever judgmental my mother. Always having an opinion on everything andeveryone. But, I wasn’t aware she had suddenly been made the fashion police…“I planned to go to the gym when I finished talking to him.” I told her, with a roll of my eyes. “Hmm. I do think you should dress a little smarter, Kaia.” She said knowingly, which had mesuspicious already, but I gave her a dark glare and walked away from her. I was not getting changedto meet my own Dad. I rushed through the front door of our large family home. Along the garden path, relishing thewarmth of the sunshine on my body as I took the short walk from our Alpha home to the largepackhouse. The moment I walked through the door, I was almost pounced upon by our pack Beta,Enzo. “Good Morning Sunshine.” He greeted me, with a smile. “A little causal for a meeting aren’t you?”he questioned, only raising my suspicions even further now, as my Dad had simply asked me to callin to see him. No actual mention of a meeting, so I was beginning to wonder what was going on. “A meeting? Dad said to come see him. No meeting.” I shoved past the irritatingly cheerful Beta,and my Dad’s best friend. He nodded, chewing his lips and looking awkward as if he 23.12% 09:08. Chapter 106-Kaia 1 1 realized his mistake. “Well, your Dad asked me to come and replace you, you know he doesn’t likebeing kept waiting Kaia.” He shook his head at me, like I had made him wait forever or something! Iwas literally about five minutes over the time he had given me… “Oh for goodness’ sake.” I stormed ahead toward my Dad’s office. I did not need escorting there by

some jumped up Beta who thought he was able to tell me what to do. ‘Kaia, sunshine, don’t go storming in there, all guns blazing. Not today. As much as we love yourfieriness, maybe today rein it in.’ Beta Enzo mindinked as he rushed to catch up with me, and I gavehim a dirty look. What was so special about today? I turned down the short corridor where my Dad’s Alpha office sat, and quickly made my way to the door, not even waiting to knock, before I opened the door. MyDad looked up from his seat at the desk, a look of shock upon his face. But, it was me that wasfilled with shock as two more faces looked back at me too. Miles, one of my former patients, andwho I believe was his father, if I remember correctly. Had he failed in his treatment and needed toreturn? Was I being disciplined because this fool was unable to follow the treatment plan he was provided?That would not be my fault. ‘Do you not know how to knock?’ My Dad mindlinked with a glare. ‘And what the hell are youwearing?’ I shrugged. I wasn’t to know it was a formal meeting when you didn’t tell me.’ “Sorry about this Alpha Marshall, Miles.” My Dad nodded toward 09:08 0 Chapter 106-Kaia 288 iVouchers the men within his office. “My daughter seems to have forgotten her manners, and apparently howto dress appropriately for a meeting.” I could feel the eyes of Miles and his father upon me, and Miles’ s eyes lingered longer than wasneeded. “Well, when you are unaware it is a meeting it makes it difficult to know you should be dressingformally, so yes, I apologize for that.” I said sarcastically, a smirk toward my Dad and the men sittingin front of his desk. “No problem dear.” Alpha Marshall smiled. “Looks like you were off to the gym.” I nodded. “Good guess. I assumed I was only coming to chat with my father. Had I known you would

be here, I would have dressed appropriately.” I explained. “Well, irrelevant of all that.” My Dad interrupted with a dark glare in my direction. “The reason wewanted you to come to the office, Kaia, is that Miles is a future Alpha of Lotus Shadow Pack, and hehas been rejected by his fated mate.” I shrugged, unsure what the hell this had to do with me. It was not quite the truth, as the truth wasdiscussed in his treatment. From what I recall, he rejected his fated mate because of past issues.Anger. She made him feel inferior. Her being too intelligent. Or something along these lines. But myDad gave me another sharp stare, and I realized he wanted me to pay attention. But still, I amunsure what this would have to do with me. This was their pack business. “Well, the thing is dear, while Miles was here, he took quite a liking to you.” Alpha Marshall began,and his words shocked me 69.20% 09:08 Chapter 106-Kaia to the core. Yes, he had flirted a little with me, or attempted to. But most young guys do whenaround me, it was no big deal. But what the hell did took a liking to me actually mean? Me and himwere most definitely not compatible. I looked at the Alpha curiously now as he continued. “So, when we were discussing potential chosen mates he felt you would make a perfect choice. Thereason we are here, is we would like you to consider our offer of becoming his chosen mate. Ourpack Luna for the future.”
