"The Beast Within" (g.d)

42.

I let out a loud laugh as Grayson lifted me off the ground tossing me over his shoulder as we made our way through the tunnels to training.

The best thing about dating the Alpha is you can be late with the Alpha, kinda like he is everyday.

Our laughs echoed through out the tunnels as we entered training and everyone's eyes immediately turned towards us. I felt myself get shy but Grayson seemed to not really notice, or he did he just simply didn't care.

"Alright guys were gonna take it easy today, just grab a partner and do drills" Grayson yells making everyone nodd and start training.

I never had a partner because I yet to make friends in here, everyone kinda kept there distance from me, and i sadly couldn't blame them.

I scanned the room as my eyes landed on Ethan's as he looked back and forth between us with a huge smirk on his face.

"Dude what" Grayson spit kinda annoyed because Ethan clearly had something to say but he steadily taunted Grayson with it.

He clicked his tongue as he stood up shaking his head as his smirk turned into a cheesy smile and he looked back and forth between us again.

"You imprinted on her didn't you?" He says giving Grayson this look that said proud written all over it.

Me on the other hand was quite confused but nothing between them made since to me anyways.

Grayson didn't say much but I could see the rosey pink color form on his face as he looked down shaking his head in guilt with a small smile.

"What's imprinted mean?" I asked earning a shocked but more confusing look from the both of them.

Again everyone knows way more than I do.

"You mean to tell me you imprinted on her, but didn't even tell her you did it, and what's worse she doesn't even know what it is, really bro?" Ethan says in a sarcastic but more serious kinda tone.

At this point I was kinda worried but I knew grayson wouldn't do anything to hurt me, but I still wanted to understand.

"I didn't mean for it to happen Ethan, it just did" grayson responds defending himself.

But here I was going back and forth with them as they argued, but no one still managed to explain anything to me.

"Hello im still here"

Both of there heads snatched towards me and I could hear grayson let out a deep breath as he walked closer to me, I wasn't sure what he was about to say would make me angry or happy, but I was dying to know.

"This morning you told me you felt stronger, closer to me right?" He started as I Shook my head telling him to go on.

"Well you see last night when we, well you know, I imprinted on you, it's when a wolf loves another wolf and they combined that love, a boy wolf can imprint on the girl wolf, You become whatever she needs you to be, whether that's a protector, or a lover, or a friend, she keeps your heart beating, she makes you, well you and you will do anything to keep her safe, I didn't mean to, it just kinda happened, my feelings for you were stronger than I thought" he explained.

To be honest I was still kinda confused on how it worked, but it also explained why I felt so connected with him.

I couldn't be mad at him for it because he didn't mean to, but I was more shocked, because I knew what I had with him was strong but I didn't know it was that strong yet, he really loves me for us to be connected like that for the rest of our lives.

I didn't really know what to say at the moment so I did what any other confused girl would do.

I walked over connecting my lips to his giving him a small peck as I turned around and walked out disappearing into the tunnels.

I needed fresh air, and some time to think. I loved him yes, but I want to know more about him, and his past.

I wanted to understand him so I could love him more, like he loves me.
