All Chapters of Resisting The Alpha King: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

"Go find her Bailey" The words rang continuously in my ear. "Go find her." What did she mean by that? Of course I knew, but did she really mean that? One minute she was screaming she couldn't tell me anything and the next she was practically nudging me to go find Noah's mum who may or may not be alive, after all.It's not like Madame Alexis gave me a truckload of answers,all she did was tell me that the initials didn't belong to Mrs Sage and there was a possibility she was still alive, even though the chances were really really low."What are we going to do now ?"Zoe asked the question that had been on my mind since my conversation with Madame Alexis. She had left me a few hours back, leaving me sprawled on my bed with a million things in my mind. Zoe called again after getting no response from me. "Bailey can you hear me."Loud and clear, Zoe." I chirped. " Only, I don't have the answer to the question you just asked. I'm stumped too.""So this is it then? We lock up shop and call it

With a contented sigh, I closed the book shut before setting it up on my bedside table. There were two piles, one for the books I'd completed and the other for the ones I was yet to read. In total, I'd gotten a whopping amount of 12 books and in the space of two days I'd read and thoroughly digested six. I had no idea if it was good progress or not.Reluctantly, I wiped a tear in my eye. No, don't get me wrong, I was fine or maybe I wasn't. The book I'd just read had the most beautiful ending. And I wasn't a big fan of happy endings, so me saying that was a big ups to the author of that book. I glanced at both stacks again. A good number of them were romance books and spoke about love and all and it was weird. Why? Because Noah gave them to me. Yes, the ruthless Alpha Noah. He was so against love and women entirely, so why did he recommend a handful of romance books for me?Noah. He'd been on my mind since that night. I had no idea what I was expecting but a tiny part of me wished he

"Yes. " I could still hear Noah's voice echo all around me. " Those paintings, belonged to my mother."He was nowhere near me anymore, but his last sentence stuck, like a leech latching onto it's host. I could still see his snug smile playing out over and over in my head. The expression he had on his face after dropping the bombshell was priceless, at least to him anyway."What?" I let out immediately. I wasn't sure I'd heard right so I needed to confirm. " What did you just say?""What do you think you heard?" Noah smiled, putting his hand into his pockets. "Come on, I'll give you a hint, if you're wrong." "I heard you say.." I started slowly, the cogs in my head spelling out what I thought I heard. " I heard you say that the paintings in that hallway….""Belonged to my mother." Noah finished up for me. " You were asking me about my mother the other day right? Or probably was it about my parents ….""Who are they?" I yelled, throwing my barrage of questions at him all at once. The m

"And what did we find?" I asked for the umpteenth time. Like asking the same question that I already had the answer to would change anything. " After searching long and hard for hours.""Nothing." I could feel the pain in Zoe's voice. It was raw and undiluted, with a little hint of tiredness and irritation. I could understand her because I felt the same way, if not worse. " Nothing at all."It was frustrating. I know I'd been saying that but I was getting to the point where I would burst, literally. Hours and hours of hard work bore nothing, nothing but an aching head and sore limbs. After we'd stumbled on that storage room again, we felt blessed. As if the moon goddess had us in mind,the room was bursting with desks of different shapes and sizes alike. At the very sight of it, Zoe and I felt like we were in heaven. Not until we started searching though.After combing through desk after desk, smashing some locked drawers and tables too, I was down with the flu. Who knew dust bunnies c

I stood rooted to my spot as Noah's footsteps became more pronounced. He hadn't spoken yet, he didn't have to. Who else would walk in here with the audacity that he just displayed? He literally slammed the door. "What are we going to do now?" I heard Zoe ask inside me. She knew better than to voice it out, or I'd be doomed. Both of us. " Bailey?" I paid her no heed. I stood unmoving, like the very action would pause time so I could sneak out of here and pretend like none of this ever happened. The door slammed shut and I prayed to the moon goddess that maybe somehow, he'd walked out again. But the gruff exhale that followed told me, once again, the moon goddess had decides to ignore me when I needed her the most. "Stupid dignitaries." I heard Noah mumble. He was angry. Was there ever a time he wasn't? I didn't know much about where he was earlier but from his tone, I was guessing a meeting didn't go well. " How dare they defy me? His voice was more close and I came to the conclusi
