Grey

Chapter 4

Quinn POV

My eyes open slowly the world blurry for a good few seconds. When they finally clear I'm in a bed that is not my grey and pink comforter. The bed is covered in a lavender purple with blue walls. My clothes have been changed into fluffy blue shorts and a lavender long sleeve shirt.

A door next to the bed's nightstand makes me hope it's a closet and the door next to a large tv must be the bathroom.

The double doors burst open revealing a girl and a little boy. Each carrying a tray.

"Good morning!" She smiles and walks in. The young boy following in tow. I push myself back against the headboard.

The girl has wavy blond hair a light grey eyes. She's short for a she wolf and pale too. The little boy looks a bit like her. His hair is a darker blond. His eyes the same color as hers.

"Who are you?" I demand. Her smile wavers and she sets the tray down. She comes and sits halfway on the. Bed and I get up and push myself against the door. I look down and see my pants and shirt. I look back at her then back at the pile on the floor. I swiftly grab the pocket knife out of the back pocket and flip the knife out.

The girl stands and and puts her hands out in front of her and the boy scurries behind her legs.

"Tanner go get brother." She says and he hesitates but then runs out the door.

I swiftly jump over the bed and grab her grey baseball shirt. I put the knife up to her throat with one hand and my arm against her chest to hold her back. My other hand hold her hands together.

"Why am I here!" I say through gritted teeth. Her eyes begin to water and she looks up.

"I-" she begins but the door next to her smashes open revealing a man that makes my heart beat fast but my hands clench.

"Get off of her!" He grabs me by the waist and throws me back onto the floor. I fall onto my side and feel a crack in my arm. I grit my teeth and squeeze my eyes shut as tight as I can. Please don't cry. Please don't cry.
My eyes disobey me and my eyes well up with tears. And before I could stop them they are rolling down my cheeks.

I look at him and he is consoling the girl. Her tears are fluent.  He looks back at me, his face full of rage. His eyes soften and they flicker a dark grey color. He turns back to his sister and rushes her out the door. He takes short steps towards me and kneels down.

With all my remaining strength I sit up and slap him. His cheek flushes red and he puts his hand up to his cheek. He seems to ignore it and grabs my arm.

"What do you think you're doing?" I yell and try to pull my arm away from him.

"I'm trying to help my mate!" He defends. I grit my teeth and my eyes visibly change.

"You are not my mate." I say through gritted teeth. He stares at me with his mouth cracked open. "Now get out of here." I gather enough of myself to get to my feet and escort him out the door. He stands outside the door and just stares at me with puppy dog eyes. I slam the door in his face and lock it.

I turn around and lean against the door and slide down until I'm sitting. I bring my knees to my chest and put my head into my hands. My whole body is shaking uncontrollably. I bring my arm out in front of me. The break has already healed but a bruise that's incredibly black.

"What am I gonna do?" I say aloud to myself and bring my head black to it leaning on the door.

(Two weeks later)

Gray POV

Two weeks ago we brought my mate here. Since then she has kept herself locked in that room. She only opens the door for food. Due to her having the luna suit, her room right next to mine.

I can hear her toss and turn at night as I stare at the ceiling. Thankfully our closets are connected. I made sure that something movable was put in front of my door so she would never know.

I pace in my room as the sunset shines through my window. How should I get her to like me. How shall I get her to accept me as her wait. I know I must respect her but I am to meet with the elders in 2 months about my pack and if the kuna is not there, I will lose my title. And I can't let her know of this because then she'll think I'd only be using her. And I want her to like her for me.

Why don't we run. Get your mind off beauty mate.

Good idea.

I push open the double doors and walk down the halls and the stairs. I slide the newly fixed glass door open. I jog behind a tree and pull my clothes off. I decide to shift slowly to feel everything at once.

A hot sensation goes from head to toe as my body changes. My bones cracking and shifting. My nose elongating into a snout. My tail bone stretching out and fur sprouting from every crease and space that covers my body. And I'm off. The world is different from an animals perspective. It's less scary and more survive while you can. Live off this land and never fear cause all is good and all is the circle of life.

By the time I get settled into my bed it's a little past midnight and my eyes feel heavy. I want to stay awake and listen through the walls but as my body begs for sleep. My brain and soul is sprung into action as my hates heart rate increases, her breathing races, and her whimpers pull me from the sheets.

I push through the connecting closet door. and stand in her room ready and alert for any attacking force. But what I find is my mate, Crying in her sleep. My heart breaks for her and I wish she would understand that I would do anything to make her happy. No matter how much she could hate me, I could never tear my mind from her.

I pull the covers away from her and slide closer to her. As if it was planned she curls up close to me and her  head lays on my bare chest. Her cries stop and her breathing slows as does her heart rate. She's calm. And finally so am I.

I kiss her head and close my eyes and wish for the night to never end.

A/N

Heyo everybody! So i decided to hold off the others notes for a bit and do very little of them and try to see how this works. So If you've made it this far and noticed the covers different then you are correct. I did change it to see which one would gain more attention. Comment which one you liked best.

Also how does everyone feel about Gray. Personally I feel like he's got an monstrous exterior but his interior is really a love for his sibling and family and especially Quinn and I can't wait for her to see that side of him. But of course it may take a while. I'm thinking next chapter they have some bonding together and with the pack. maybe even put some suspense in there. Well who can guess.

Also Sorry about the slow updates and short chapters. I've just been having a bit of writer's block. Plus Schools been horrible and stressful and everything's just clattering together in my life.

Well I hope everyone likes the story.

QOTC: Who's your favorite character so far?

AOTC: Gray, as I said he's got a lot of potential.
