Chapter 17 Bailey

• I got myself ready to leave the house, dressed smartly in a pair of high-waisted, wide-legged, black trousers. With a simple white tank top. My long dark hair I chose to tame, so the curls were manageable, and I clipped the sides back from my face. I slipped on a pair of simple black heels to finish my outfit, along with simple but stylish make-up too. I needed to make a good impression. I needed a job. There had still been no responses despite all the applications I had sent out.
• “You ready to go Bai?” My Dad called up the stairs, and I smiled. He was not wasting the opportunity to go and see his friend, former Alpha Isaak, again. After we had called the pack and requested an appointment to discuss the role of teacher in the pack, my Dad had messaged Alpha Isaak to let him know, and instantly he was invited to come along too. Personally, I think it was just my Dad’s way of coming along to keep an eye on me. Ever the protective father.
• I have since learned the two of them had played football together in the inter-pack football squads many moons ago. Back when my Dad considered himself quite the footballer. Back when he could actually run around without feeling like he would collapse and have a heart attack. No, I shouldn’t be mean, my Dad was still in quite good shape for a guy his age. That came with being a Beta of the pack, I guess. He had no choice but to keep training and had to stay at peak fitness.
