Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

Chapter 0220

The kind and sweet Miles I believed I was marrying seemed to have been drifting away before my own eyes. I think I have made a mistake. One I don't know how to get out of. I felt tears filling my eyes, as I thought about the mess I found myself in. I had focused so much on the things I would gain by being with him, not realizing the things I was risking, the things I would lose. And now, here I was, falling apart, facing a life with a man who saw me as nothing more than a trophy wife.

I had no clue how long I stood there fighting the tears when, suddenly, I heard footsteps, and I quickly wiped my eyes, trying to compose myself, not wanting to be caught crying. Knowing it would not look good, the bride being caught crying on her wedding day. But, as I turned to see where the footsteps were coming from, Jacob turned the corner.

"Are you okay?" he asked, his voice full of concern. "You didn't look too happy when you rushed away from that perfect little Alpha of yours."

"You were watching me?" I found myself asking in shock. I would have assumed he would have been making the most of the free drinks and the food, not to mention all the women that were out there, along with his friends that were here, like they did at most parties.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

I slowly shook my head. "I think I made a mistake." I mumbled, and I saw Jacob nodding.

"I think you might be right. He doesn't know you like I do, Kai, you know that, right? Yeah, things get complicated here and there. We mess up, but we always end up back together, right?" he rested his hand upon my hip, pulling me closer to him.

I looked up at him, my whole body trembling at his touch. The thing was, he was right. I know he is. We always seemed to find our way back to one another. As much as we fight it. "But, you hurt me."

"I messed up, Kai, that was all. But you can't deny we are good together. Last night was amazing, right? You always come back to me. It felt so good to be with you again." Jacob said as he moved his face closer to mine, his eyes focused upon mine, making my heart race.

I nodded as he continued. "The moment we touched, the moment you screamed my name, I knew I had made a mistake letting you go. We were always meant to be, you and me, Kai." His hand stroked my cheek softly as his lips found mine, anurgency so deep as he pushed me against the wall.

When, suddenly, a deep growl came from the end of the corridor. "Care to explain what the fuck is going on?!"

My eyes opened, my heart pounding for an entirely different reason now as I tentatively looked toward the source of the voice, knowing exactly who I would find. As my eyes met a very angry gaze. Miles looking like he was ready to kill...
