Chapter 0135

Life in the pack was hectic, though everyone was in such a joyful mood at the news that their Lunahad given birth to the daughter of their Alpha. Their pack had a new pup to celebrate. I had been sobusy with things for work that I had yet to go and visit. Besides, I thought it was only right that thefamily got to spend some time alone together. Not that it stopped Luna Eden messaging me. Shewas messaging back and forth much of the day and night.

It seemed, in the pack Luna, I had gained a new friend, not that I minded. A friend was never a badthing, and after the way Miles had treated me over the years, I had lost many friends, all taking theside of the Alpha… So, this new friendship with Luna Eden was somewhat of a novelty, I had toadmit. Although, she would not let go of the tense atmosphere in the room between Asher and mewhen I visited her the other night. So frequently asking me what was going on between us. Askingwhat had happened, and why Asher was trying to get away the moment I arrived. But I was not ableto explain the way he reacted. Nor was I able to explain how his mind worked.

You would think she would know him better than me. She had known him a lot longer, but she hadnot been able to shine any light upon it either. But, we were both in agreement he did appear to beavoiding me. But, I had no clue why. I had not seen him in the packhouse of a nighttime since, so Ididn’t really have the opportunity to ask him. Though, I had ensured I stayed in my room afterdinner. Maybe that was a little childish of me, but I did not have the energy to deal with theawkwardness either.

I closed up my classroom after yet another fun day in school. This was one of the few positives ofme being in this pack now. I loved my job and the little monsters I was teaching. They were thehighlight of my day, and constantly cheered me up. But, once the day was over, it was back to myusual mundane and miserable life, all alone in my small room in the packhouse doing my best toavoid the mean and moody Beta of the pack. I was beginning to wonder if it was the right place forme or not…

I was just walking toward the main doors, when Marc walked into the school, his whole face lit up ashe saw me, and I instantly felt my mood brighten. At least someone was pleased to see me. “Nowaren’t you a sight for sore eyes, Princess.” He winked at me.

“Marc, stop flirting with my staff!” Alli yelled from the staffroom, and I felt my cheeks heat up, as Inoticed Marc’s cheek tinting red slightly too, telling me he was likely as embarrassed as I felt. I don’tthink he meant it in a flirting way, that seemed to be the way he spoke with me…

He chuckled. “Can’t even say hi.” He shrugged. “Come to help her, and she accuses me of flirting.Maybe I should just go home, she would soon complain then. When she had to do the repairs onher own.”

I smiled at his cheekiness. “Hi.”

“Hi to you too. See, you look so much better when you smile, you know? Anyway, you beenavoiding me at dinner time?” he asked, leaning against the wall, his eyebrows raised, and a handupon one hip, like he was teasing.

“No, I have been busy with things for work. Doing class preparations is all, so get to dinner later.” Iexplained. “Why would I avoid you?”

He looked down, like he was suddenly uncomfortable, or maybe he doubted himself. I wasstruggling to read him... “Don’t know, maybe after the stuff Beta Asher said.”
