(Do Not Kiss me) Bailey's POV. I checked my phone and it was a call from Alpha Grey. I froze and I didn't know why? A part of me somehow felt guilty for letting Miguel kiss me. For so many reasons I hated that we both shared a kiss. One reason was because we are just friends and friends don't kiss. Secondly I thought that I had a done a bad thing "Bailey."His voice was soft and tender in my ears, he tried to grab me but i wasn't going to let him do that, I flinched at his touch and looked at him. "I have to go Miguel, something came up." I hurried out of the classroom. "But Bailey, we have a class now." He drew. "Something came up, I have to go?" "What happened?"I stopped when he asked. "Uhm it's Tyler, she isn't feeling so well." I mumbled then walked out of the room. I took my phone and dialed Alpha's number immediately, I was out of reach. He called and it only meant that was ready to speak to me and that was all that mattered. The phone rang but he didn't take the call
(Prom Day 1)Bailey's POVThe ray of sun, sneaked into my room, almost blinding me. I groaned, tossing and turning around the bed.My phone rang out loud and the door to my room burst open.I forgot to lock the door."Good morning B."It was mom, she had flushes of blush on her face and she beamed with smiles, I turned softly and grabbed my phone from where it was charging by the bedside table "Good morning mom."I let out a yawn.I picked up my phone as I sat up the bed scrolling through my phone and saw notifications from Tyler and Katie and a good morning message from Alpha Grey and Miguel.*Don't forget to apply beautiful makeup Bailey. I'm going to nominate you as prom queen* I gasped when I read the text from Katie.*We will meet today but just a reminder, you are always beautiful* It was a text from Tyler, I knew Tyler to be less talkative and more mature and sweet."Hey Bailey. I can't wait to see you." It was Miguel's message."Good morning Bailey. I'm sure you'll have a beauti
(Prom Day 2)Bailey's POVIt was a few hours to prom and I was still in my room getting my makeup done by the makeup artist but my phone wouldn't stop buzzing with messages from Tyler, Katie and Miguel.When the makeup artist arrived, mum had wanted to join them but I told her I was good and I wanted to show her how I would look. I wanted to surprise her."We are done now, miss, "The blonde haired lady that did my make-up said I looked up to her and was not dead before taking my eyes back to the mirror to look at myself.I was unable to understand how she was able to turn my face into this beauty in just an hour. She's good."Oh my goodness! I look amazing. It's time for me to put on my dress." I said and she nodded.They helped me get into my dress and it was so beautiful. I stood staring at myself in the full length oval mirror. I looked like a princess.My hair was rolled up and wrapped in a tight beautiful bond, my flawless skin matched the gown, it was like the show was made total
The weather outside was cool and crisp, with a light drizzle that added to the ambiance of the night. I could see the soft glow of the string lights illuminating the pathway leading up to the entrance of the venue, and the sound of raindrops tapping against the windows provided a soothing background noise.As I made my way to the dance floor, my dress rustled softly against my legs, the intricate lace detailing and flowy layers adding to the ethereal effect of my outfit. I felt a twinge of self-consciousness as I saw some of the other girls in their sleek, fitted dresses, but I pushed the thought aside and reminded myself that I looked beautiful in my own unique way.As we made our way to our table, I could feel the eyes of everyone in the room on me. I blushed at the attention, feeling both nervous and exhilarated all at once. But my nerves were quickly calmed as the principal, Mr. Derick, approached us."Welcome, students, to our prom night," he said, his voice booming over the crowd
Chapter 49Bailey's POVThe prom was in full swing as Miguel and I danced the night away. The DJ was playing my favorite songs, and the atmosphere was electric. I felt the excitement building inside me as the night progressed. This night had to be my night, everything seemed to be perfect. It was like the DJ had me in mind when he picked out the playlist for the party. I was so happy that I went with Miguel. The smile on his face was dashing, so dashing that it kind of made me nervous.Suddenly, the waiters appeared with trays of drinks, and I grabbed a glass of a pink cocktail and downed it in gulps to help calm my nerves."Are you okay Bailey? You look nervous.""No. I'm totally great."I lied terribly. I was totally nervous.I had a few sips and afterwards, I began to feel dizzy. Maybe I had drunk it too fast. I however, brushed it off as nerves and continued dancing with Miguel. I enjoyed the feel of his hands around my waist as the music blared loud through the speakers. But then,
Chapter 50Miguel’s POVAs I drove Bailey back to her house, I couldn't help but feel a sense of shock wash over me. The bodyguards that had been trailing us the entire night had followed us all the way to her doorstep. It was clear now that they were indeed her personal bodyguards, hired to protect her at all times.As soon as we walked into the pack house, Bailey's parents rushed over, visibly worried. They quickly took her up to her room, leaving me alone with the bodyguards.I couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt wash over me. I should have known better than to let her drink so much. But at the same time, I couldn't shake off the feeling that there was something more going on with her than just a simple case of overindulgence.Her dad came downstairs after he must have laid her in bed and he had lots of questions to ask me because the moment he walked into the main room he began bombarding me with multiple questions.“What happened to my daughter?” He asked angrily.“You were s
Chapter 51Alpha Grey's POV"What do mean that she fainted?! Was she hurt? I gave you guys one job and you... You know what? Never mind. You guys are dismissed for the evening. You've don't enough for one night."I cut the call and breathed deeply. It was dark and I stood at the window of the hotel and looked out. I was on the top floor and I had the most wonderful view of the city but even that wasn't enough to make me stop regretting how i failed to protect Bailey. I wanted her prom this year to be perfect but it was now ruined.I remembered how miserable she was last year. I felt sad seeing her come home in tears as she was the only one at the dance that didn't have a date. She was so lonely and she cried for weeks. She thought that no one wanted her. I felt miserable that I couldn't just wisk her there and blow everyone away. I wanted to make up for keeping her alone for so long. I wanted this prom to be extra special for her. I bought the dress and jewelries and called the most f
I woke up to a throbbing headache, feeling disoriented and confused. As I tried to gather my thoughts, my mother walked in, holding a glass of juice. "You had a little too much to drink last night," she said, handing me the glass.I accepted the juice gratefully, feeling a little embarrassed about my lack of self-control. But as I drank, I couldn't shake the feeling that something wasn't right. My mind was foggy, and I couldn't remember anything after leaving the party.As if sensing my unease, my mother sat down beside me. “I wasnt dreaming, So Jennie came after me?” “Yes, Miguel explained everything, she hurt you so much my dear. How are you?”“I feel pains everywhere.”“I am sorry, take this.” she handed me some pills and made me drink them.My mother went on to explain that Miguel had brought me home, but not before a group of professional bodyguards had appeared, claiming they wanted to take me back to safety. Miguel had refused, not trusting them or their intentions, and instead
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
