Bailey's POVI was actually very sad and I sat down alone in his office. Alpha Grey had left me for the second time. He was truly serious about the whole 'taking a break' thing. I left the plate on the table and headed to my room. I was miserable but I comforted myself. Maybe he wouldstart talking to me tomorrow. I had a cold bath and laid in bed. The doctors had cleared me to go to school. I was nervous as to what to expect. It felt like it was ages since I saw the four walls of my classroom. I however couldn't sleep. I tossed and turned in bed. I couldn't sleep. My mind was awake all night. The thoughts of the library incident still filled my mind.What if Alpha Grey still wants to reject me? What if he doesn't talk to me for weeks or even months? Just the thought of it all made me feel even worse. I tried not to cry but it was hard to keep the tears in. After a while, I drifted to sleep. As I slept I had dreams, both good and bad, about Alpha Grey. They were all possible outcomes of
Alpha Grey's POVI was trying to catch some sleep but I couldn't as I was too aware of Bailey's presence. She was standing and staring at me and I knew it. Soon there was a soft pressure on the bed and I could feel her soft breath on my face."Bailey," I said with a bit of annoyance."Alpha Grey," she said gently back.I turned my face away from her but she still was persistent. I turned again but she would not leave. In my annoyance, I sat up and looked at her."Bailey, what is all this about?"She looked at me and pouted a bit sadly"Alpha Grey, I just want to spend time with you. I don't want to do this break thing."I exhaled and looked at Bailey. She was just so stubborn. I calmed myself and spoke to her gently."Bailey, please, we need this. We need to heal. This break is there to give us time to think about what we feel for each other. Us being together has brought us so much pain. This is to help us be sure that we still want to continue."Bailey began making a sad face. I look
Bailey's PovSince I returned from the hospital, this has been the best time I've had with him. The warmth of his embrace lulls me into a deep and peaceful sleep. It's a feeling of safety and comfort that I've longed for, and for once, I can let go of all my worries.As the sun begins to peek through the curtains, I slowly open my eyes and find myself in my own room. Confusion clouds my mind for a moment. How did I end up here? Last night, I fell asleep in Alpha Grey's room, so why am I back in my own? I try to recall the events of the night before, searching for any clue as to what might have happened. Did Alpha Grey carry me to my room? The thought warms my heart, knowing that he would take such care of me.Curiosity propels me downstairs to the kitchen for breakfast. To my surprise, the chef has prepared a mouthwatering feast just for me. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee and the sight of beautifully arranged dishes make my stomach rumble with anticipation. It's clear that Alpha Gr
Grey's pov When I woke up it was already the next day. The sunlight shone directly from the opened window of my room in my direction. I tend to block the view with my hands when I see Bailey still sleeping. It was a long night for the both of us as we spent the entire night together. I could still remember how she curled up in my arms and wrapped her hands tightly around me.She must have missed me so much and yet I kept my distance from her. Damn! My heart aches whenever I think about it. Bailey had gone through a lot and I can't believe that I must have been adding so much pain to her too.Staring at the beautiful temptation called my woman, I was so engrossed that I didn't realize when my hands extended and touched her on the forehead and smoothed the silky curtain of hair away from her face.Although we need the jewel and my pack members are worried about the situation, Bailey is my utmost priority and because of that, I will never in my lifetime leave her side no matter what.Ju
Alpha Grey's POVBailey had a very intense injury on her foot and I was really worried. She wasn't able to take care of herself much less walk properly. I was home with her because of the intense pain from her injury. I asked how she was doing and if her foot still hurt but it took her quite a while before she replied. It was obvious that she was in a lot of pain. Her attitude was lacking the usual spark and it was cold and distant. I could only imagine what she was going through. She looked at me with sad, pleading."Are you going to work today?"I actually didn't hear her and was busy fussing over her injured foot."Alpha Grey," she said a bit louder this time, "are you going to work today?" I turned and looked at her. She grimaced in pain and I patted her foot softly."No I'm not." My eyes were warm and reassuring. "I just want to make sure that you're okay. You can barely walk and I don't want you getting some other hilarious hijink. For some reason, trouble always finds you." I wi
Bailey's PovThe next day, as I woke up, a sense of unease settled over me. Alpha Grey had been on a business trip, but he was supposed to have returned by now. My mind raced with worry, conjuring up all sorts of scenarios as to why he hadn't reached out or returned home. Was he in danger? Had something gone wrong? The uncertainty gnawed at my heart, leaving me restless and anxious.As I made my way to the dining area, the aroma of my favorite food filled the air. The chef had prepared a delicious meal, but I found myself unable to enjoy it. My thoughts were consumed by Alpha Grey and the questions that plagued my mind. Why had he kept something from me? Amid recent events, where Miguel, whom I had considered a friend, had deceived and kidnapped me, causing me to lose my unborn child, I had witnessed the lengths to which Alpha Grey would go to protect me. I had seen him sacrifice his precious Sapphire jewel, a symbol of his wealth and power, to save my life. But did I truly mean anythi
"Leave me, Miguel.”I said, pushing him off but this dude keeps coming closer, trying to stalk my life with his annoying concern."Bailey..." I didn't let him speak, I pushed him off."Aren't you listening to me, Miguel? I said leave my room now," I said pointing at the door. "Leave, I don't want to have any conversation with you right now." I was in pain. Staring at his face made me hate him the most.Not after what I heard about him, I don't think I can ever trust him in this life. He is a traitor. A traitor!He was hesitant to go as commanded. "Bailey, I will leave your room but please, just let me talk. Let me explain myself to you.""Explain yourself to me? What other explanation is there?" I said with a deep frown on my face. "Are you trying to convince me that you're innocent? Miguel?” I wasn't in the mood to listen to bullshits or some kinda cock and bull story.I insisted he should leave my room. I was fed up to listen to whatever he was going to say. "Miguel, for the last time
Bailey's POV"Miguel came to see me last night." I told Katie and Tyler. They looked surprised at me."How do you mean?" Katie was the first to recover from the shock. She hushed me. "Calm down; we are in a public place." She said."I mean that I saw Miguel last night." I repeated it slowly.Tyler rolled his eyes. "I understand what you mean. But how is that possible?" He asked."Well, I don't know. He came here last night. He sounded frantic." I informed them, then went ahead to tell them all he said last night."You can't be serious." Tyler said. I thought that he had run away. How did he manage to sneak in?" Tyler asked."Have you informed the guards?" Katie asked me."They didn't notice any suspicious activity." I replied. "That means that..." Katie trailed off."That means he can come and take me away again." I shuddered at the thought of it. The trauma from the last episode was too great for me to withstand."No, he can't." She said that, and I stared at the ground."Hey, look a
