Councilor Zeph's POVI watched as Bailey was sent home and I was left alone with a heaving Recce and a silent Grey. I braced myself for the worst."I told you to stay away from my daughter, you snake."I scoffed."Maybe it's not me that's the problem."I could feel Recce's anger surging but I stood my ground. He was a dog. All bark and no bite."I helped your daughter Recce. Despite our differences, I helped her. I doubt you knew the first thing about getting her wolf back. Our personal strife aside, I care about this pack and I want to help it, especially in the fight against Zane. I have proved that I am worthy of your trust. If I hated you so deeply, I wouldn't have helped your daughter. Doesn't that speak volumes already?"I looked at Recce and he was silent for a while. I was surpressing anger within me. If they had not interevened, I would have gotten the information that I need form Miss Recce. I couldn't lose this opportunity. I was a memebr of the council and maybe I could co
Bailey's POVI was in my room; I had skipped dinner. I was really scared as to what dad would say when he got home.Mum had tried to calm me down but it wasn't working. I sat in my room alone but I was restless. Sometimes I would get up and I would pace around the room or I would sit on the floor. I watched as the hours flew by but nothing happened. I was too scared to look out of the window and check if dad was coming.Finally I braved it and I poked my head outside. I tried to listen as hard as I could but I could hear nothing. I sniffed the air and then, I could smell it. He was suddenly getting closer and closer but he wasn't talking. Soon he emerged from he forest and was walking rigidly beside Grey. I thought I was going to have a panic attack. My heart skipped so many beats that I was afriad that it would stop.I pulled my head back into the room and waited quietly on my bed, fidgeting with my fingers. I was nrvyous. Today started of so well but now look.I knew that dad was i
Alpha Grey's POVI got back to me room and I could feel my blood boiling hot. I had to leave Bailey's room. I felt myself being consumed by my passion for her. The feeling was exhilarating and refreshing and I felt stronger than ever. In my head, I could feel my wolf prancing arpound. He had never felt this happy in a while. I smiled and let him have his fun and flopped my bed, exhaling in satisfaction. I was more than happy.I thought about Bailey and guessed that she was probably already reading the book I have given her. The thought of it made me smile. Soon the smile vanished and was replaced by a solemn feeling. I had alot to do that evening. I had decided to go back to the tunnels with Recce to check out the passages again. We were better equipped this time and we weren't going to be taken unawares by any traps that had been set up. I had expected nothing less from a place that was probably hiding the most important book in the entire pack.I looked at my clock and it was about
Bailey's POV"No. No. No! Dad! Dad!"He was being swallowed up by the velvety darkness and suddenly, I woke up with a fright and I sat up and stared into my dark room. I exhaled. It was just a dream. Dad was okay. He wasn't hurt. I rubbed my eyes and was unsure of when exactly I had fallen asleep. I felt around my bed and my hand brushed the book. I remembered now; I was reading it and then I dozed off.I looked outside the window and I noticed that it was raining pretty hard. That was very unexpected. There had been nothing but clear skies for a while now. I looked at my phone and it was just 3am. I stretched and that was when I smelt it.I sniffed the air and the strange smell was stronger than ever, basically in the same room with me. I was terrified and I turned on the bed side lamp in my room and I saw it: clad in a thck cloak that covered him head to toe.I froze and was unable to move. The shadow of the hood he wore concealed his face and I eyes and it fel like I was looking a
Bailey's POV."You guys seriously can't read it?"The both shook their heads."I know a bit of ancient Lycan," said Tyler. "My dad teaches me but this is nothing like any ancient Lycan that I have seen."I took the book and looked at it. The words were in perfect English."But it looks English to me. I can read every line perfectly."Katie looked at me."Maybe it's because you are wearing the necklace. Maybe it helps you translate the handwriting."I soon realized that Katie was right. I felt the clip of the necklace and took it off."In that case, you wear it."I handed it to Katie and she put it on. She looked at the book again and squinted her eyes."Nope. It's still...oh my goodness!"Katie and Tyler were looking at me in shock. I was really puzzled."What's wrong?" I asked innocently."Your eyes.""My eyes? What's wrong with my eyes?"I stood up and went to the mirror and the sight shocked even me. My brown eyes had become green and blue just like my wolf's."What is this? I'm no
Alpha Grey's POVI sat in my room all alone. The events of last night were still replaying in my head. Every now and then, I could feel the darkness creep up on me and a shiver would run down my spine.Recce had it worst and I had given him the day off and I was trying to put a plan together. I was shaken but I was still going to search the pack library that evening. If Recce wasn't fit to go, that was fine with me.I was still very tired and I hadn't been able to sleep a wink at night. I felt something in my pocket and pulled out the paper I had with me that night. I stared at the strange handwriting. If only I could read it. It would go a long way into helping me find out what was in those tunnels. I looked at the paper again. I had to get this to Councilors Zeph and Xavier. The sooner they could translate it, the better.I got up and headed to my office. The halls were quiet and the few guards that I passed, I was silent and I headed into my office just as quietly. I closed the doo
Bailey's POVI stormed to my room angrily. How could he? How could he lie to me? He promised and now, he simply changed his mind like it wasn't important for me to know. I sat on my bed angrily . My mind was racing and in the corner, the book caught my eye. I picked it up and leafed through it. Katie, Tyler and I had read so much about the necklace. Techinally, I did the reading. The book said that it intensified strong emotions and made the wearer to take brash and hasty decisions. At least that explained a lot. It also gave the wearer the most realistic dreams and was a counter to something. The problem was that I had no idea what it coutered. The continuation of it was on the next page which had been ripped out.I closed the book and looked at the cover. If the book was true, that meant that the dream I had about dad was a real and that was probably why he was so jumpy and shaken and Grey knew about it and both of them didn't want to tell me. I felt even more angrier and took deep
Bailey's POVThe day flew by fast and all I did was take naps and read. I didn't want to be low on energy that night. Everytime I closed my eyes, though, I saw the same blue ring around me but in as much as I tried to dream further, I was always woken up and the dream never progressed.My room was quiet and Katie called me."Hey Bailey. Did you talk to your dad and Grey yet?""Yeah. They don't want to tell me anything but I am gong to find out tonight. I need to start acting like a Luna.""I'm proud of you Bailey. You really have come a long way."I smiled and I decided to ask her the long awaited question."Katie?" Are you and Tyler, you know..."Katie was silent for a while."Katie? Are you still there?""Yes. We are dating. We found out that we were mated to each other. We weren't ready to tell you."I felt like jumping for joy."That's great! I am so happy for the both of you. You two deserve to be happy.""Thanks Bailey. I'm honestly grateful for the support."I smiled and soon,
