I was shaking in anger as I stormed into my room. My parents had been in the sitting room talking about something but I didn't care to pause or stop to greet them - I was too angry to pay heed to anyone. Once I got to my room, I flung myself to the bed, and shut my eyes tightly as if they would, in any way, take away the anger or the whole reality of the mess surrounding me. It didn't. The anger only built because closing my eyes made me remember the princess slash monster and her words. /You cannot stop them./ So what then is the point of all these? What exactl;y were we doing here? If we cannot stop them, if really nothing can be done, that means I was just wasting my precious time. Might as well just sit, live my life and allow the monsters to kill and kill until they get to me. At least I knew what was coming and whatever time I had left I could make use of it to live to the fullest. But it didn't make any sense. If truly nothing could be done about this - if there was t
"Ok….I'll be leaving you now, try getting some rest, you'll be better in no time", the Lady said assuring her as she leaves the room with the door shut behind her.Isabella sighed deeply as she tried shifting to the edge of the bed to get a more comfortable spot. Frustrated as hell.She got interrupting by the sound of the door opening, as she tried turning with the little strength she had."Did you hear about the fire outbreak in the kitchen?"Jayson asked sarcastically leaning on the wall beside the door."First was the flower blumiming and now you decided to extend your magic powers by burning down the towel sis…. Such a great work i must say"he said jokingly as he sat on the edge of the bed beside her.Isabella leaned close to her brother who had his arms wrapped around her trying to keep her warm."Exactly what I need at this point in time " she whispered to herself as she felt all comfortable in jayson's arms."For some reason i still can't believe the world's life depends on my
Sean slowly opened his eyes, at first couldn't see anything but the light aiming directly to his eyes, he rubbed his eyes with both palm, tried opening them a second time.Only to see Naria standing beside the white long curtains, she was the one who had opened it, enabling the light into the room.Naria just stood there with the gentle smile on her face."Good morning sean", she said softly.Sean, still feeling a bit sleepy, blinked his eyes a few times, getting up to rest on his back on the pillows."Good morning Naria", he replied, his voice a little rough from sleep."Sorry, if i had disturbed your sleeping", Naria said moving to the wall close to the door side.Sean slightly smiled at her."It's cool, just wondering how it was that I didn't here you coming in", he said digging his fingers into his dreads."Was thinking about the same thing"."Hmm….. I guess is cause i slept late that's why…. But I'm ok, don't worry yourself "Sean assured her." Ok then, I'll leave you to freshen
"Run, Bee,” A voice echoed through her head as she tore through the woods, her little feet bare and aching, dashing against stones. “Run as fast as you can. Do not look back, do not stop, do not worry. I will find you soon,"She could see him in her mind’s eye. An old man standing at the edge of the forest, holding up a silver moon necklace that gleamed in the dark night. “Run Bee!”And she ran. For hours until her feet couldn’t take any more. She ran until her knees grew feeble. Until the trees morphed into cackling shadows around her, mocking the poor little girl lost in the forest. Bee fell to her knees, clamped her eyes shut, terrified to be all alone. The old man had promised to come. He would come with his shining necklace and all the dark shadows would be gone. And so she curled up on shrub covered ground and waited. But he never came. Isabella’s eyes flashed open to see a gleaming white ceiling staring down rather boringly at her. She had the weird dream again. That was th
"What?" A sharp pan seared into Isabella, licking at her veins, burning like wildfire in her blood. She hunched over, hearing Luna yell over it all. She clutched her chest, struggling to breathe through the pain as she stared at Damian's cold eyes. He looked remorseful but resolved. His jaw clenched as he watched her writhe and in that moment, she hated him. Hated that he had caused her to feel pain. "Why?" She murmured, weakly. "I am sorry," He whispered, looking away guiltily. "Sorry?" She chuckled, straightening. He had caused her pain, humiliated her before everyone in the pack and he had the guts to say a flimsy "sorry" to her? What had she done to deserve such a horror from the Moon goddess? She had been good, hell all her life, for as long as she could remember, she had done her best to be good, so why? Why, Damn it! She would not cry. Not before the entire pack. Not when Damian had torn her down like this before them. "Damian," The Alpha bellowed, walking over to
Sean remained silent. Isabella watched his eyes slowly turn blue and his face grow cold. Her heart skipped in fear, and she pulled away from him slowly, already expecting the worst. "Sean?" she called, alarmed when he simply rose up and walked out of the room. Shit! Shit! She had messed up. Her heart pounded wildly in her chest, and she sank into her bed, trying to process the entire encounter. Werewolves got second chance mates. That was a widely known fact. What were the odds that both mates would be men she grew up with? Her door creaked open, and Isabella sat up quickly hoping it was Sean. Her face fell when she saw Luna standing at the door, curious and concerned. "Isabella?" she called, walking into the room, "I saw Sean leave in a hurry. He did not do anything to you, did he?" Of course, she thought the worst about her own son, Isabella thought sadly. The same man who had helped her right before everyone, away from the prying eyes and cruel whispers. Sean was the kindest
Isabella's heart raced as she stared at the man before her. A man she was sure she had never for once, seen in her life, but it still felt like she was staring at herself.Her breath caught in her throat, and her mind reeled with confusion.What's he talking about?Surely, it cannot be true.The Luna, sensing Isabella's shock, rose gracefully from her seat and moved to Isabella's side, gently taking her trembling hand in a reassuring grip. Isabella's gaze flickered to the Luna, questioning her with her eyes.With a shaky voice, She finally managed to speak, her words quivering with disbelief, “What… what is going on here?”The man, who could as well be her identical twin, took a step closer, his voice soft.“Isabella, I know this is hard to believe. I'm your brother. My name is Daug.”She raised her brow, “Your name is Dog?”He chuckled, “No. D-A-U-G. It's kind of a nickname that stuck. I'm Jayden.”Jayden.That name too sounds vaguely familiar. Just so vaguely.But Jayden is such a
“Excuse me?” Isabella gasped staggering back because surely he wasn't serious.But he looked serious. She could see it in his eyes, how serious and intent he was.This was a man on a mission.“Of course,” Jay responded, staring at her as if she's the one being ridiculous, “I have found you now, Bella thanks to the goddess. You must come home without haste.”“Surely you don't expect me to just pack my bags and follow you, do you?”“Why the hell not?”“Because, it doesn't work that way. I have a life here, I have a home here - a family. I can't just abandon all those in the blink of an eye.”Her brother blinked at her, “But your rightful place is in Nightingale. That's where you belong. That is where your true family is.”“We are her true family here.” The Luna chimed in but her husband placed a hand on her lap, giving her a warning look.“Listen,” not knowing what to do with her hands other than fidget, Isabella took her brother's in hers and squeezed them lightly, “I understand you. I

“It's been more than twenty four hours. Do you have any idea why exactly the guidances asked me to come here?” Sean thought loudly to Aaron and the wolf grumbled. “I don't know, Sean. They sent you here so whatever the reason might be, I'm sure you will find out soon enough.” Sean didn't like this at all. He didn't. Since he got here, all his uncle had actually done was feed him, show him a room then disappeared. They have not gotten a chance to have a conversation yet. He didn't like that he was just wasting time here while Isabella was out there somewhere…doing goddess knows what. He needs… He needs to get to her. He needs to do whatever it is possible to get to her. What was he thinking listening to those.. people? What on earth was he thinking when he allowed them to convince him? What if it was all a trick? “You need to calm down, Sean. I can't count how many times I have told you these over the days. Calm down and trust that everything will fall into place,”

“This all sounds…unbelievable. I mean I have heard these myths and stories but I never thought that they were actually true.” Jay said after long minutes of listening to Isabella narrating everything she has been up to for the past few days, “And I have so many questions. How did they know where to find you? And will we ever get to go home one day?”“Sure, we will definitely get to go back home Jay,” she said although a small teeny part of her really doubted that, “we will…I promise. As for how they got to know, that's something I have not figured out yet but I definitely will.”Jay gave her a small nod, "Okay. So what's next for you...for us?""Nothing much. I still do not know when this big doom break will happen but there's a tyrant out there causing havoc. So I need to get into my full potential and stop him before he can wake the dark queen. That's the gist of the whole thing.""I really can't believe this," Jay gave a small laugh, "I mean...still sounds like I have been caught i
“Are you going to keep on avoiding me Brenda?” “I don't think you want to know the answer to that question,” the woman snapped, not looking his way. Enzo sighed as he stared at her back, wondering…just wondering what he had done for the goddess to pair him up with such a stubborn brute. He followed her. No way would she just avoid him this time. They had to talk. It's been months, yet they keep circling around each other without addressing the issue and Enzo is tired of it. He has had it up to his neck. “What is your problem?” “Stop following me, Enzo.” She responded and her steps quickened but he didn't listen to her. “No I won't. No, Brenda hear me out for fuck's sake!” Thankfully she stopped but when she turned around to look at him, the look in her eyes would have made a lesser man run in the opposite direction. “You are being a child and you know it. We need to talk about this, we need to address this issue because -” “We do not have anything to talk about or address, E
