Chapter 39Bailey's POV.The gown was an open back green gown with a slit at the front, it looked beautiful. I walked back to where I had kept my phone and met it with Alpha Grey face still on the screen."Alpha. What do you think of this?"I asked and he folded his lip. He stared at me for some while then adjusted the phone properly."Bailey, turn around."His lips pursed after he said that."Sure.I turned slowly and let my back face the camera."I don't like this, it exposes a lot, '' his voice raised a bit."It's just the back, it doesn't show much."I retorted and he gave a view with his side eye."Take it off Bailey or I'll hang up" I knitted my brows at what he said."That is such a mean thing to say you know. Don't you dare hang up on me. "I think I must have forgotten that I was speaking to my Alpha."Your feisty today huh?"He brushes his hair backwards as he smirks lightly."Yes I had a lot. I didn't want more." I knew what I was talking about but he didn't and I'm sure he was no
(Alpha's Pain) Alpha Grey's POV She had sent me a message telling me she'd be video calling me in a bit because she was ready to shop for her dress. Bailey is my priority and she owned all my time even if didn't know about it. I was waiting patiently for her call and it came, the confress room of my company here in Dallas was filled with my works, we were working on a new strategy, I turned to them and made them all leave the room. Looking at Bailey for a moment I saw this glow that I hadn't seen on her face for the longest of time, she was happy and I think it was because she was attending the prom. I didn't want the smile to fade away, I wanted to see it hung her her pretty cute face all the time. She changed into the first dress and damn I wanted to grab her but she was far away from me and I could only see her through my phone. if she was here with me, I would have pulled her closed to me and roam my hand all over her body, kiss her because she was mine, but even if she was
Bailey's POV The moment Miguel touched me I took my eyes up and I noticed the look on Alpha's face. He watched Miguel do my zipper and the next moment the call was disconnected. I pulled away from Miguel after he was done with my zipper then walked to get my phone. My lips patted as I wondered why Alpha had hung up. "He hung up?" I was muffled. "This looks beautiful on you."Miguel walked in front of me and wouldn't stop gawking at me. I tried calling again but it didn't go through. Why did he suddenly hang up, did he have another important call or was he now busy? "Bailey is anything wrong?"Miguel startled me, taking my head up. I looked at Miguel as he bent a little to look at me . He is so tall. "Are you fine?"He asked and I nodded positively, I was fine wasn't I? "I said something to you." He rolled and I looked at him confused, I hadn't heard what he said. Twitching my lips I asked "What did you say? I'm sorry but I was lost." "Oh. I was only complimenting your dress. Yo
Bailey's POV It was later in the night, I was ready for bed but I wasn't still at ease, I had tried to call Alpha but he wasn't taking his call. I roamed around my room with my phone placed on my ear, he was making me tense why wasn't he taking his calls After a lot of trials, he finally answered just when I was about to go to sleep. "Hello Uncle Grey, how are you? You got me worried" I rushed my words staring at my empty bed. "What is the matter, Bailey? I am very busy and you have been disturbing my phone with calls all through" I sensed this aggressiveness in his tone, he sounded stern. "Are you fine? Is it work?"I chipped in, throwing questions at him. "I will call you in the morning, Bailey. I am busy."I was unable to stop him after he said that. The call got disconnected, making me wonder what was happening. Well he said he was going to call me in the morning so I don't mind waiting, he probably is busy and stressed from work and all Alpha duties, that man deserves to re
Baileys POV. (The principal's Office) I gave a slight knock on the door before walking into the principal's office. "Good morning Mr Derick."As I greeted I roamed my eyes around his very big and beautiful office. My heart skipped like a thousand times as I walked in but I wasn't going to show it. I wouldn't let anyone know that I was scared. It was the first time ever since this semester that I'd be called into the principal's office. I always hated it here "Good Morning Miss Recce, have a seat."I pointed at the seat and I nodded, I pulled the chair backwards then rested on it. "How are you?"He asked and I gave him a brief smile. "I am fine." "Well that is good to know. '' He paused and after a few minutes he continued. "I had gotten some reports about you Bailey but I want to believe that it is not true because you are one of our best students and we have never gotten a complaint about you. As he said this my heart rate intensified. "I am sorry Mr Derick but I do not unders
Bailey's POV(A Day To Prom.)I thought I had started his prom journey very well but I was wrong, with all that had happened I wanted to stay back at home and read a book, rest my head and let everything go away with Adele on repeat.I yawned softly as I looked at my dress that I had spread out on the bed.He promised he would help me pick a dress but the moment he saw that I was with Miguel, he hung up on me.I kept wondering why he did that. I had tried to call him a few times after that but he hadn't taken any of my calls. When he finally did, he told me was busy.It's been almost a week since then and I hadn't heard from Alpha Grey.I didn't know what it was but I knew that whatever kept making me feel that way needed to go away. I needed to stop feeling like I was entitled to him, like I needed to know whatever was happening in his life and why he acted in such a way.If my parents ever get to find out that I was slowly starting to house feelings for my godfather it would never en
(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
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
