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
Chapter 141Alpha Grey's POVMy flight touched down at the airport. I was really nervous and happy. Four days away from Bailey felt like four years. I was so happy to be back in the familiar territory of the pack. I came down from the plane and anxiously waited for my luggage. I was jittery all overAll I could think about was going home to see Bailey. I had never felt so restless in my life. I wanted my mate. I wanted to feel her close. My nose was itching to have a whiff of her scent. I wanted to feel her warm soft lips against mine. I wanted to hug her and hear her voice whispering and talking to me in the sweetest of voices.Soon my luggage arrived. I went to the exit point but I hadn't seen my chaffeur. I looked at my watch. Bailey should probably be home by now. I waited a little longer but my chaffeur still didn't show up. I sat down on a little bench and waited for him to come. I soon got bored and I went into a mini mart. I looked around and did a little window shopping at a b
Bailey's POV"Alpha Grey.""Bailey, what is going on here? Why is he here?"His voice was loud and angry. How on earth was I going to explain why Miguel was in my room to him?He quickly dragged me away from him and I tried to explain things to him."Alpha Grey, wait I can explain. Please hear me out."But he was uninterested. He pushed me behind him while he stood defensively in front of me. His figure was bigger than mine and I was unable to see Miguel from behind his back."What are you doing here?!" Alpha Grey snarled at Miguel. I could feel his body quaking. Was he going to unleash his wolf and kill Miguel in my room? Definitely not in my room."Alpha Grey, please listen to me. He means no harm."But he was still not going to listen to me. He suddenly let go of me and took menacing steps towards Miguel. His fangs were bared and his grey eyes were glowing. Any more of this and Miguel would be a meaty pulp."How dare you come to my mate's room after all that you have done?!"He lung
Bailey's POVI wrapped my hands lovingly around his neck and ran my hands through his hair. I could hear him groan deeply as he kissed me. I was lost in the sensation. Nothing else mattered at that moment.I didn't want him to stop and I wasn't going to let go of him anytime soon. I wanted more of him and I knew he knew it. He lay me on the bed and was soon on top of me.I looked up at him and was panting really fast and hard. His scent and aura choked me and I loved it all."Bailey," he said in a whisper as he slipped his hands up my thighs. I moaned at the gentle pressure and softness of his hands. Soon he slipped his hand into my underwear and felt my bud. I moaned louder with pleasure as the sensations rushed through my body. I grabbed the sheets and put one arm around his neck. I wanted him and I needed him.He trailed kisses down my neck and to my stomach while he was felt me pleasantly wet just the way he liked it."You're mine Bailey."His voice was seductively possessive and I
Alpha Grey's POVI walked out of the room leaving Bailey all alone. We were having such a steamy session and now the council had to come along and spoil it all for me.Maybe it was for the best though. We were unhinged. If we had continued, we would have lost control of ourselves. I exhaled as I missed the feel of Bailey's warm touch. What on earth would the council members want so late at night?I looked at my watch. It was past midnight. I was feeling a little drowsy myself now.I and the servant soon got to the council hall. Everyone was already seated and waiting for me. Their faces all looked grim and serious.Recce was seated on his chair, at the right hand side of mine. I took my seat and immediately I sat down the other members of the council stood up and greeted me.They sat down and there was a looming silence. They were waiting for me to give the first word."Good morning members of the council. I assume there is a good reason that you all have called this meeting at such an
Alpha Grey's POVBeta Recce looked at me with wide eyes."No Alpha. I'll talk to him.""No Reece. I'll do it. You should head to bed.""But Grey...""That's an order Recce."Recce said no more. My words were final. He nodded his head and left the council hall. I sat in my chairt thinking of all that was discussed in the meeting. Everyone was worried and they had every right to be. The threat of war by one of the most wicked packs in the wolf world was not one to be taken likely. I had to do what I could to stop Zane. If Miguel knew anything about Zane's plan, he had better speak else I'd rip the words out of his sorry miserable throat.I finally left the council room. I headed to my room to check on Bailey. As I approached, the room was quiet. I opened the door gently and found her asleep on my bed. It was really late do I didn't expect her to wait up for me. I entered the room and looked at her beautiful face. Her hair was in the way. I gently brushed it aside and she stirred and brea
Bailey's POV(Four Years Later)"Grey! Have you seen Aiden?!"I looked around the living room and behind the curtains but he wasn't there. Suddenly I heard giggling behind the door.I laughed and tip-toed towards the sound."I wonder where Aiden is? He seemed to have disappeared into thin air."The giggling came again and I couldn't help but smile.I opened the door and Aiden jumped out and into my arms."Mummy found me!"I smiled and kissed his forehead."Yes. Mummy did find you. Now, where is your sister?"I looked around the room and could see a little black head peeking out from behind the curtains that I hadn't checked behind."I see you Charlotte!"She came out laughing and ran into my arms. I hugged her and lifted her up with her brother. I kissed her forehead and she giggled too.I had never thought that I would be so happy. Grey came behind me and put his arms around my waist and kissed my cheeks."Are we all getting free kisses" he whispered naughtily in my ear.I put Charlot
Alpha Grey's POVI was so anxious to see Bailey. I had barely slept the night before and I was jittery all over. We couldn't see each other. I was so excited to see her and get it over with.I had planned the whole wedding. I wanted it to be a special surprise. Before the evening came, Recce and I had gone to the venue. We had chosen the beautiful spot in the forest near the waterfall and flowers. It looked stunning and had managed to remain untouched despite the ravaging war. Everything was set and what was left was for Bailey and the other ladies to come.I couldn't sit still. Every few minutes I was checking my watch and watching the sky, looking out for the first moon. Recce could see my anxiety and he walked up to me."Grey, you need to calm down. This isn't going to make the earth rotate any faster you know."I sighed. Recce was right but he couldn't blame me for being restless. It was finally happening. The pain and troubles and hurt were finally over. I was finally going to
Bailey's POV"Ouch! Katie! The bun is too tight."Katie was a bit rough with my hair. She was really jumpy and I couldn't get her to stand still."I am sorry. I'm just really excited for you. The Luna ceremony is going to be big. The moon will be bright and I just want you to look amazing."I knew that she just wanted to help and I couldn't lie, I was really excited and nervous. The Luna ceremony was tonight. I almost couldn't believe it. It was finally happening after all this time. I was finally going to be with Grey.I hadn't seen him all day. We weren't allowed to see each other before the ceremony and all the waiting was making me anxious.The door flung open and Katie and I jumped in fright but there was no one there. We suddenly heard cute noises and we looked down. Charlotte had crawled in. We giggled and I went over to pick her up. She was a few months old and she was very strong. I was actually scared that she would rip my door off it's hinges.She giggled as I tickled her a
Bailey's POVIt had been two days since the war and the pack house was a flurry of activity. Dad was exceedingly busy. Since Grey was incapacitated, he had to take up responsibilities until he was awake. The evacuees were back to their homes and everyone was pitching in to get the pack back in order.I, on the other hand, spent everyday beside Grey. Mum and I would take turns babysitting Charlotte. She was a bundle of joy and the entire pack welcomed her with open arms.Most times she would sit with me in the room, watching Grey and she had taken quite a liking to him. She would want to touch him and hold his hand as well but on this particular day, I was alone.Sometimes I could see his eyes moving through his eyelids but he wouldn't wake up or his breathing would be deeper at some intervals.The codex and the Sapphire were kept at his bedside. Wolves that were close to it usually felt increase in power and strength and it was thought best to leave it near him so that he could heal f
Bailey's POVI watched almost breathlessly. The light was going out quickly but Grey was still not awake. What was he doing?I placed a hand on his chest, wishing and praying and finally, the light went out. It was over. I felt my heart shatter. He didn't make it. I lowered my head and began to cry. Grey was gone.Suddenly, I felt his chest heave a little. I looked up quickly and he took a gasp of air. His eyes were still closed tight but he was alive! The doctors around me were astonished and looked at me in surprise but I only had eyes for Grey. My eyes were glistening with tears as I watched his wounds slowly heal. It was going to take a while but he would recover fully. He was badly injured.I turned to the doctors and they were all wide eyed."He will be fine. I don't know when he will wake up properly but he needs a lot of rest. As much as he can get."The nodded and left the room. I was alone with him and I took his hand in mine and felt the warmth returning back to him as I wa
Alpha Grey's POVI gasped and opened my eyes but all around me was white. I couldn't see anyone or anything. All was silent. Where was I? I got up from the mesmerizing white marble floor and looked around the emptiness that surrounded me. Still nothing.I touched myself frantically. Was I dead or was I alive? I couldn't tell. In that blank room, only one thought came to mind–Bailey. The last thing I could remember was me pushing Zane out of the way and then, everything went dark.I felt tears well up in my eyes. I wasn't able to protect her. I had failed. The room suddenly felt cold and the lonliness crept up on me. Never before had I craved the warmth of my mate the way I craved her now.I walked a little in the empty space. I had no idea if I was going forward or backward. All I knew was that I was moving away from where I was. I had no idea how long I walked but soon, I saw something in the distance. It lay on the floor, lifeless.I walked even faster then it turned to a run and w
Bailey's POVZane's loss was too much for him to bear. There was no way that he could have survived. His mate was killed and he was seriously maimed.I turned and faced my dad and his mouth was wide open in shock. I dropped Zane's body and walked up to Grey's and prodded him gently with my nose. He was motionless. I couldn't hear no breathing or heartbeat. I let out a sorrowful howl and lay down beside him.My dad rushed over to me and Grey and stroked his friend lovingly as he shed tears of sadness. We had to get him out of here. I was still in my green and gold form and I touched Grey's body and he turned back to his human form.I looked at my dad with sad eyes and gestured to him to put Grey on my back. It might be too late but I was going to take him back to the pack to get medical attention. Dad put Grey on my back and walked over to Zane's body. I could see the anger and loathing in his eyes as he took the Saphire that hung around his neck. As soon as he removed it, it reverted
Bailey's POVI looked at Zane. The blue flames around him were bright and imposing but I wasn't scared of him. I looked at Grey's body that lay in the corner. He had used his last breath to save me. I owed him my life and I was ready to die for him."A little transformtion will do you no good, little pup. Get ready to join your mate."I was silent and stared daggers at him. I watched his every move. The forest was still and the night was in full glory but the light from both of us gave the sky a mixture of light; the colours blue, green and gold clashed beautifully in the sky, lighting it up in a intricate dance.There was calm and all was still. It felt like the entire forest had stopped to watch us. Even the breeze had stopped blowing and the birds had ceased their chirping and were waiting for our showdown.Then he charged. His black fur whipped behind him and the blue flames encircling him got even brighter as he ran full speed towards me. I didn't move however, and dug my claws
Bailey's POVI took a step back as he growled at me. I looked at Tiffany's body which lay limp on the ground. She deserved what she got. I was not sorry. I turned to Zane and the slits in his eyes glinted with a dangerous fire. I stared at him and tried to be brave.He stopped growling and spoke to me via the telepathic link."Such young and youthful blood. I'm going to give you the chance to let me kill you slowly. I will count to five and you have to be on the run. I want to make sure that you die like the little frightened girl you are. One, two..."I shifted into my wolf and took a cautious step back."Three, three and a half..."I still didn't run. I had made up my mind to face him."You made a wrong choice little Luna. Four, five!"In a flash, he pounced at me but I was able to get out of his way. My wolf was slightly smaller than his, less bulky and more nimble. I had the speed advantage and he knew. He activated the Sapphire in his chest and lunged towards me again. I was u
