Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

Chapter 0154

Zion had pushed forward enough to take control of my body, to make me stumble forward toward Bailey, with his words fresh in my mind. Yes, giving her a kiss would likely shut her up, but it would likely result in me getting a black eye too! She looked angry.

'Be bold, Asher"" Zion's voice urged.

"Asher!" Bailey said, as I stopped myself knocking into her.

I smiled down at her. Shit... it is a long time since I have tried being flirty with a woman. Do I really want to be flirty with her? I don't even think I could... I'm not sure that I know how anymore.

"What are you doing?" she snapped.

I looked down to her again, my heart pounding within my chest. Hell, she could likely hear that... most of the pack could likely hear that... her beautiful brown eyes were glaring at me. I'd like to say gazing, but right now, it was definitely more an angry glare than an affectionate gaze. I gently raised my hand to softly run it along the skin of her cheek, and I heard her gasp the moment my fingers touched her face.

Bailey's eyes darted back and forth over my face, like she was trying to read what I was doing, the angry glare now replaced with a look of uncertainty and confusion. I hated that I made her feel that way. I could see the rise and fall of her chest had increased, meaning I was likely making her panic. "Asher..." she whispered.

I was mesmerized by her eyes, her skin under mine, until she raised her hand to meet mine upon her face. And I suddenly jolted from the daze I had found myself in. The daze I think my wolf had assisted me in finding....

"I'm sorry. I'm not good at this." I muttered, moving away slightly.

"Good at what?" Bailey asked quietly.

"This." I motioned between me and her. "Zion was saying I should..." I faltered, realizing she didn't need to know what my wolf was telling me to do. It would likely not help the situation.

"Zion?" she asked, a little confused. "Your wolf?" she asked again, and I nodded. She smiled in response. "He tells you to do stuff, does he? Akira does that to me. If that is any help, some of the bat-shit crazy ideas she has had over years are beyond belief. And aren't the wolves we have meant to be our support? Mine has a few brain cells missing, I think."

I found myself smiling, she had instantly put me at ease, seemingly without even trying. But, oddly, the way she described her wolf sounded exactly like my own.

"Sounds like someone I know." I told

her with a smile. "I am sorry for just now. I was trying to help you, that was all. I picked your keys from the table in the library where you were

sitting planned to take you our

room, lay you on your bed, put a blanket on you, and leave. That was all Bailey. I wouldn't hurt you. I hope you would know that."

Her big brown eyes gazed up at me, through her long dark lashes, and she nodded. know. Thank you." She leant forward slightly, standing on her tiptoes, to bring her lips to cheek in a soft kiss, and a jolt pleasure and need ran thro me that took me by surprise. I knew Zion liked this girl... but, I think I may be beginning to... then, as I looked down upon her, her eyes looking up at me so sweetly, almost embarrassed, I realized, I needed to feel her lips on my own...

Just as Bailey began to move away from me, I hooked my hand within her hair, pulling her face back to mine, causing Bailey to gasp once more in shock, but she did nothing. to stop me. Her eyes were focused upon mine, her lashes fluttering nervously, as I allowed my lips to tentatively find hers, and as did, I felt my guards come crashing down. Softly my lips brushed against hers, terrified she would push me away at my forwardness, but to my surprise, as I continued to tenderly find her lips with mine, she began to return my kisses. Did she want this too? Hell, I think I had been surprised at how much I wanted this... Content

An unexpected warmth spread through my body as I felt Bailey's hands reach into my hair, gripping it tightly, making me moan against her lips. Had I been wanting this all along? Because this kiss felt like a relief sweeping over me. Over Zion too...

I felt Bailey's tongue teasing at my lips, and I parted my lips, allowing her tongue access to my mouth. Meeting it with my own tongue, teasing and playing as we deepened our kisses. Shocks and shivers of delight and desire coursed through my body at Bailey's touch... the teasing of her tongue against mine... the softness of her plump lips against mine...

My hands slipped around her waist to hold her closer to me. The curves of her body fitted perfectly against my own, having an effect on me, I hadn't expected...

My head felt light, as my heart pounded within my chest as Bailey pulled back from our kisses, though she still kept her hands within my hair, her forehead rested on my own. "Asher?" she gasped, sounding as breathless as I was feeling.

"Hmmm?" I don't think I could speak. I am not quite sure what had happened. This was not something I had expected to happen between us.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

'You took my advice.' Zion chuckled, sounding smug, but the sense of contentment in him was something else. I don't think I have felt that since Isla, and that terrified me...

“What are we doing?" Bailey whispered shakily.

I chewed my lower lip anxiously. I thought her words over. Did she mean she hadn't wanted that? She felt like she did... my head was spinning now...

I have now felt how good her lips felt on mine. I don't know if I would want to let her go now...

I raised my gaze to meet hers. "I don't know. But it felt good." I whispered back.
