Bailey's POV. The arrangement was so displeasing to me. Miguel sat close to me and Uncle Grey had to sit beside Tiffany. I pouted my lips in annoyance. I didn't want to sit here. I wasn't comfortable seeing Uncle Grey with that woman. "Here's your popcorn" Miguel lips curved into his usual charming smile that didn't really excite me today. Miguel called my name softly out of his little pink lips"Bailey" I jerked out of my reverie and smiled a little at him, he placed the bag of popcorn on my lap and I held on to it, he gave me a bottle of juice. "Thanks, Miguel" I appreciated half heartedly. My eyes still diverted to my right side where Uncle Grey and Tiffany were seated. I saw a large smile on his face and it made me annoyed. He only used to smile at me. Deep inside, I wondered where they knew each other from. The big screen suddenly shone brightly, it still didn't distract me from gawking at both of them. The worst part was that Uncle Grey did not care to spare me a glance, he
Alpha Grey's POV. I almost frowned seeing Miguel's hand holding my Mate's hand, my wolf twirled inside me out of rage, I knew she was a young innocent girl who had the right to do whatever she wanted since she had not gotten a mate yet but deep inside I felt bad about her closeness with Miguel even though their closeness is comprehensible since they attend same school and it would make sense that they would be friends or something even more. The thought made me want to puke,jealousy overwhelmed but I had to contain it because to her, I was just her 'Uncle Grey' not her father or boyfriend, therefore that puts me at a great disadvantage, my wolf was urging me angrily to grab our Mate's hand and kiss her till we pass out from the intoxication of her lips and scent but I had to hold back, restrain myself from doing anything irrational, it would be terrible if people found out about this. I had been keeping this secret of my Mate's identity for years and it had to remain that way till I
Bailey's POV.I didn't know why but I was running, I was running away from him but I think I was running from the hurt, but what hurt was that?I saw him hold her in his arms and I felt weird, it felt strange to see another lady in his arms. I didn't know why but I hate it. I wasn't the only one hurting, my wolf was too, even if I have never heard a word from her before, I could feel that she was hurt, she winched and I did too."Bailey.."I heard his horas voice call out to me but I didn't stop, I was out of the mall in minutes and even if he'd brought me with his car I was willing to run back home. I wanted to shift then run back to hide in my room."Bailey!"His voice echoed in the drums of my ears and as I ran I felt him catch up to me. I turned my back hastily and in that one second he grabbed my hand, making me stop running."Bailey." I have never heard him yell my name in such an authoritative tone."What is wrong with you Bailey, where were you going to?"He inquired, I sniffed i
Alpha Grey's POVWho would have expected that my mate would get angry because she saw another woman in my arms. It only meant the mate bond was growing and she didn't know about it, but I am still confused as to why her wolf hasn't said a word to her.We got home and I tried to get her to talk tell me what was wrong with her but she walked away, even when I called her in an authoritative way, she stopped and continued, she didn't need my voice and it got me pissed off when have i told someone under me something and the person didn't listen to me?I waited at her door for her because I knew she was going to come outside to get her things and she did but she didn't have to get her things from the car because I was with it.I placed her things on the bed and turned to her.She doesn't have the right to walk out on me. I yelled at her and now she thinks it's because of Tiffany.What was this jealousy? I loved it. I fucking love the fact that she was jealous, it gave me this feeling that ev
Bailey's POV."Bailey what have I told you about evesdropping?"mom asked but I didn't move a bit, I was adamant on knowing what relationship Uncle Grey shared with Tiffany. Yes I have a crush on Miguel but I didn't like that his mom made uncle Grey forget about me in seconds of meeting her."Bailey, am I not talking to you?" Mom gave me one of those her what is wrong with you glare but I wasn't even falling for it."So you two know Tiffany and you act like you don't?" I didn't why whenever I thought about her I felt a thud in my chest, I constantly feel betrayed and hurt. Why was this hurting."Don't get me angry Bailey, get into your room."Mom screamed at me and I flinch, what I didn't under was why they were constantly raising there voice at me. "Why are you yelling at me mom?. You all hate me" it wasn't like I didn't want to know the truth again but mom and Uncle Grey were no moving there muscles like that had something to tell me. I groaned in anger, my eyes were filled i water a
Bailey's POV.The first bell had rung for classes to begin and as much as I wanted to avoid Miguel, I wasn't so fortunate because we had the same class and he showed up in school.I wanted to pretend like he didn't exist, I wanted to continue with the way it's been since the last time we had lunch but he was persistent.Miguel passed a tiny piece of paper on my desk, I had this urge to brush to paper off my desk but then I found myself taking it into my hands and holding it. I opened it slightly to read what he had neatly handwritten.I felt a little smile forming at the corner of my lips, clasping my hand against my lips. I smiled.I turned slowly to see him fully focused on me.What a way to flatter someone. Why was he doing this?I looked at the paper to see if I had read it properly. It read ~Good morning Bailey, you look so good today. You should smile a bit, little sunshine~ My feet twinkled and he looked at him, he had the biggest smile I had seen and I didn't know why he had
Bailey's POVAt this point I think I was not only confused but was going crazy.I think I'm about to know who I'm mated to and that's the reason for all this giddy feeling.School was soon over and I got myself down to the parking lot where the driver was waiting for me.All I wanted to do was go home to have a good rest, do my homework, then get ready for my date with Miguel."Bailey." It was Katie walking towards me, I stopped walking and waited for her to walk up to me."Hey Bailey, what's up? We haven't had a talk in a while. You don't even show up for lunch. Do you and Miguel have Lunch often? You literally forgot about us Bailey.''She said it all at onc and I sighed."I'm sorry. Katie, I have been so busy these days. Where is Tyler." I looked around for her but she was nowhere to be found."You see, you didn't even notice, Tyler isn't feeling so well, so he missed school today."She explained and I nodded."Let's go see her?"She asked and I sighed sadly."I would love to come but
Alpha Grey’s POVShe cried pulling me in to hug and all I could do was wrap my hand tightly around her and waist, I pulled her even closer like I wanted to get glued to her forever. Dipping my hand into the curls of her brown hair I sniffed in on her scent. I didn’t want to leave her especially at this time when she was gradually feeling the bond.“Bailey, I have to go now , be a good girl and I’ll be back home by your birthday with a surprise gift for you.””What gift is that?" She asked and I smiled.”I said it’s a surprise gift, if I tell you what gift it is, it wouldn’t be a surprise again." I beamed as I looked at her. She had the prettiest eyes that always made me go crazy whenever she did a side eye or she rolled her eyes.She looked amazing and funny but this time around, she had a slurpy and gloomy look and her eyes didn’t smile too and I hated it.“Your dad is in charge for now, take care honey." I kissed her softly on her forehead and made her leave.Goodnesses I will miss
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
