Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

Chapter 0233

Hearing Miles was on his way for Bailey had filled me with rage. Miles had, for so long, deemed Bailey not good enough for him. For the pack. Even to the point of rejecting her. Belittling her. Breaking her down over the years. Attempting to destroy her heart and her soul with his tactics. Yet here he was suddenly deciding he was going to try and pull her back from her escape from the pack? Make her his?

I do not know what went on inside the mind of that monster, but it was not right. He needed stopping in his path. This was not going to happen. Bailey deserved the happiness and fresh start in life that she had ensured for me after Miles's attempt on my life. I should be the one to help her get that!

My gaze fell uncertainly on my mate. I only hoped she would be understanding of my need to help my friend. My first love, I guess you could say. I wanted her to find the love and happiness I had found. Let her experience the joy it created within you. Only then would Bailey realize just how grateful I was to her.

'I need to help them get away baby.' I mindlinked Dana and she looked at me with a smile.

'I would expect nothing less.' She responded, as we stood guard at the door. 'You would not be you if you were to simply walk away and leave them to fight this alone. And neither would I. We are warriors Harl, we protect. And right now, that girl needs our protection.'

I smiled proudly at my mate. She was one hell of a girl! A true blessing. The other half of me. A perfect match; and I could not be more grateful that she understood what we needed to do. Now we just needed our friends to hurry their asses up...

Thankfully, they were soon loading up the car after a little conflict. My stomach was heavy and churned with anxiousness... nerves. I just hoped that whatever was happening in that packhouse was enough to hold Miles back. It was frustrating that we didn't have more information to understand better what had occurred, but I am sure we would learn soon enough. Yet in the meantime, we needed the issues in the packhouse to be severe enough that Miles did not get to the house here until Bailey and her sister were long gone. Surely his own father and Beta Donovan would be capable of holding him back, wouldn't they? They absolutely could not just allow him to come and find Bailey... could they? I would like to think Beta Donovan alone would be determined to keep him away... keep his girls safe.

With a far from ideal goodbye, Bailey was rushed to the car. I would have preferred so much more than this, but I knew we would all be in touch again soon. Dana and Bailey seemed to get along great, and, I have to say, it was so good to see her again. That beautiful smile never seemed to dim, nor did that light in her eyes, despite the shit going on in her life. She deserved happiness and I hope in her escape she finds it. I had to help her find that! I was becoming more and more determined and hopeful by the second...

But the hope quickly diminished as a horrendous sound echoed through our ears. And that deep growl was unmistakable. A growl of an Alpha wolf. Whether he was officially the Alpha or not. That was an Alpha wolf in the making, and he had arrived. Arrived here with a purpose. And the look of fear upon those girls' faces only fueled my need to defend them. Looking at Marc, I could see he felt the same. But I needed him to drive them away. Far away from this pack as quickly as he could. They would be safer with him by their side.

"Get in the car.” Marc ordered the girls, and they wasted no time following his instructions. But I needed him to go with them. They needed to leave, not be staying to fight and hoping for the best.Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

"All of you get in the car. Leave. I will deal with him." I ordered, and Marc looked at me like I had lost my mind, but thankfully, Dana moved toward the car, nodding, as if in agreement. She knew what we needed to do. She was a strong warrior. She could battle alongside me. We trained together daily in and out of work. We could delay him at the least. That was all they needed, a head start...

"Go, we got this." Dana urged, and all of them quickly clambered into the car as I smiled across at my mate for backing me up on this. Despite the fact the growling was getting closer and I would say angrier...

'I love you baby. We got this.' I mindlink my mate with a smile, and she nodded at me, as I allowed my wolf to push forward, the shift beginning as Miles moved nearer.

'Always. But if we need to stop, we stop. The Beta's car is open, keys in ready for a quick escape.' She informed me, and I couldn't help but be impressed she had thought ahead, and I assumed that was why she had run inside. We would fight him to the point he was delayed enough, then make our escape... that had to be the plan.

My wolf ran toward Miles who was so close now, but before I could reach him, his body began to shift... close enough, I could hear his bones as they twisted and cracked into place... and then, I was met with the Alpha wolf of the upcoming Alpha of my former pack. A deep snarl and snap of his teeth in my direction as his teeth attempted to grip my neck. But my wolf was more than prepared, dodging the move. Twisting around to attempt to bite the wolf in front of me.

'I can't try to shift Harley, not if I am

pregnant. It is dangerous. Sia is saying no too, Dana's mindlink ran through my head, and my heart plummeted. I had thought we would be able to battle him together... two warriors side by side against the psycho Alpha. But it had completely not be

able to shift if she was pregnant. That was simply not possible for she-wolves when with pup... Sia was her wolf, and if she was refusing too, that only confirmed in my mind what we had already suspected. We would soon be parents. I needed to keep my mate safe too.

'Stay back baby.' I urged her, but knew she would be here assisting me if given a chance. Miles's wolf was relentless' snapping and snarling at my wolf... I fought back the best that I could... clawing at his flesh. blood sprayed across my vision...there were wounds across the bodies of both of our wolves... suddenly his wolf lunged, and I was down... pinned... the almost satanical eyes of the wolf that belonged to the man I hated most in the world looking down at me... almost a glint in them... he had come to finish what he had failed to do the first time...
