Alpha Grey's POVBailey's words meant so much to me. I pulled away from her and stroked her cheek."I have to go now. I have something important that I need to do."She frowned a little; I knew that she didn't want me to go. I didn't want to leave her either.I gave her one final hug and got off of her. She sat up and watched me leave her room.I headed to my room and closed the door behind me. I ran my hands through my hair in exasperation. I nearly lost control of myself and marked her. I promised her dad that I wouldn't until everything was right. I had lost control of myself and nearly broke my promise to Recce.I sat on my bed and began to think of all that had just happened between us. I was truly tired like she had rightly noticed. I and Recce had spent the whole day looking for the codex and the search was futile and we were barely able to cover the entire archive. I needed more help but I trusted no one except Recce. It was a really stressful day and I just wanted to bury all
Bailey's POVI was up early the next morning. I wasa flurry of different emotions. I was going to try and talk to my friends again. I still had my finals and was also going to meet Councilor Zeph. I still thought about my howl the other day and I have been tempted to howl again ever since. My sense were now sharper but the weren't up to the standard they normal were if I had my wolf back.I brushed my teeth an had quick shower. I headed downstairs and mum ws still making breakfast."You are up very early today. I haven't even finished making breakfast.""I know. I just want to get to school earlier today and try and talk to them. Maybe wait for them in front of their lockers and talk to them."My mum came over and kissed my forehead."I'm proud of you sweety. I know that this is tough but everything is going to be alright in the end. Okay?""Thanks mum."She went back to the stove and soon breakfast was ready. I had a steaming stack of waffles on my plate with maple syrup. I immedi
Alpha Grey's POVI woke up so late. The sun was already up and it shone bright on my face through the windows. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. I began to think of when I had fallen asleep. My hand brushed something beside me and I saw that it was the book that I was reading. I had fallen asleep while I was reading it. As I opened it and glossed over the picture again, the thought of Bailey popped into my head. She had probably gone to school.I groaned as I dragged myself out of bed. I was up late in the archives looking for the codex and I had barely gotten enough sleep. There was a knock at my dooor."Who is it?"The door opened with a creak and Recce popped his head in."You're still in bed? Gosh what were you doing all night?"I chuckled and got out of bed."I was in the archives. I thought I would do some searching and try and help us cover more ground.""Well you look a mess. You could have asked me to help you.""I didn't want to bother you."He glanced on my bed and saw the cl
Alpha Grey's POVWe looked at the four tunnels and we were unsure of where to start."Do you have your cell phone?" I asked Recce but he shook his head. We couldn't split up to cover more ground if there was only one light source.Our minds were made up and we entered the first tunnel. It was pitch black. I shone my light on the wall and they were decorated with pictures of and handwritting was sprawled across them.We walked deeper and deeper but with each step, I felt more and more skeptical. We had gone so far with nothing happening. As we took another step. There was a creak. I felt my hair on my neck stand on end.All was silent and soon, I heard distant whistling. I knew the sound all to well. My wolf senses took over and I pulled Recce to the ground with me."Get down!"We fell to the stone floor and put our hands around or heads as arrows flew past us. We didn't dare to rise our heads till we were sure that the coast was clear. Maybe we had made a mistake. The tunnels were boo
Bailey's POVI had a terrible day at school. My finals so far were going great but when I tried to talk to Katie and Tyler again, Katie got extra pissed. She yelled at me in the hallway and everyone was staring at us. I felt broken and sad. How could Katie still be this angry?I looked at Tyler but he simply looked away and Katie grabbed his hand and pulled him away. I stood in the hallway and all heads were turned to me. I was so embarrassed and I ran away to hide and cry. I never thought that my finals would turn out this bad.The bell rang after a while and I had to go back to my class. I passed Bryan on the way and he was with his jerk friends."Everyone hates you now! Congratulations on being the worst person ever."He snickered at me and his friends laughed with him. I ran into the class and sat at my desk and put my head on the desk. I didn't want anyone to see me. I didn't stop until I was sure that the next paper was coming.That was how I wrote the rest of my exams that day
Councilor Zeph's POVI was home drinking tea. I looked at the wall clock and watched the hours go by slowly. Miss Recce would be home from school soon and I would wait for her in the forest. She was so gullible. I knew she would come back for me to teach her more. I was simply building her trust. Her father had probably told her not to trust me. I growled as I remembered Beta Recce. He was a gullible fool just like his daughter, hiding behind too much pride.I sipped my drink slowly. A few more hours now. I was going to help Miss Recce get her wolf back but she would have to exchange the secret of the the codex for it. I was in no rush though. Today I would help her unlock another part of her wolf to further endear her trust.I picked up a newspaper and began to read. My eyes skipped the words and my mind went straight to Alpha Grey. He had been silent for a while. What was he up to? Probably busy frolicking with the Beta's daughter I am sure. I would never be in a pack where a chil
Bailey's POVI looked at Councilor Zeph as he thrusted the knife towards me. He had to be joking. There was no way I was going to cut myself."Are you scared little pup? You just healed yourself from a terrible injury. What wiill a little knife cut do to you."I was not convinced. This had to be some kind of sick joke. I wasn't going to cut myself. I looked the blade as it glistened in the evening ssun. I looked at Councilor Zeph and he had a cunning smile on his face."Well, seems you are a pup. I can't believe you are scared of a little knife cut. Well in that case..."He sheathed the dagger and put it in his pocket and started to leave.I was no longer apup and I didn't appreciate that he called me one."Wait."He stopped in the spot, his back turned to me and spoke."Yes, young Miss Recce.""I'll...I'll do it."He turned slowly and looked at me in the eye. He had a smirk on his face."Excellent."He turned around and handed me the blade. I took it with shaky hands and unsheathed
Bailey's POVI looked at Alpha Grey and I wasn't sure of what to do but then he looked at me with the most handsome smile and I ran right into his arms.He hugged me so tight and he pulled me so close and I filled my nostrils with his scent. I felt like I hadn't smelt it for years.I looked up at his warm grey eyes and he suddenly warmed my lips with a kiss. I closed my eyes and groaned as his soft lips danced across mine, savouring his taste and warmness. I could feel his grip around my waist becoming tighter and I could tell that he missed me too.He carried me up and soon, I could feel myself put down on a table. I ran my hands through his soft silky hair and he pulled me tighter to him. I could feel something hard touching my crotch and his breathing was deep and husky. He finally pulled away from me and looked at me deep in my eyes. I was blushing terribly but he stroked my cheek and pushed my hair out of my face."Bailey," he said under his breath. The way he said my name, the
