Eclipse of Twin Flames CHAPTER 25
Isla’s POV"Move..." I whispered. Composing myself, I shoved Adrian away and sat up quickly, gasping for air.I could still feel the lingering warmth from Adrian's closeness, clouding my judgment. Damn, mate pull! Even after the subtle distance between us, the tension was still thick.I could still feel his dangerous, thrilling, and utterly confusing eyes fixated on me. For a moment, I had let myself get pulled into it, forgetting everything else, forgetting why I was out here. And he didn't move away either.I took a deep breath, trying to steady myself. I had to focus."You gave me a task, remember? I am here to find clues," I snapped, trying not to show that he had such a powerful effect on me."What about you? Were you following me?" I pressed, wondering why he was in the woods as well.Adrian scoffed, standing on his feet. He ran his fingers over his hair and smirked at me, as if I was delusional even to speak about the possibility of him ever following me."Following you?" The w

Isla’s POVI instinctively tried to look around, my body shivering from fear.Adrian’s grip tightened on my arm, yanking me as he pulled me to the side."Go get the patrol team." He said in a low, commanding voice. "I will guard the scene, meanwhile."I gaped at him, trying to process his words and recover from my daze. Maybe it was the best solution if I walked away from the situation for now.But before I could even flinch, we heard footsteps approaching towards us. Adrian pulled me closer, his protective instinct taking over. "Stay close."Just then, Stefan and Lucas appeared from behind the tree lines, their eyes scanning the scene."That girl... " Lucas stuttered, his eyes widened in shock. But they gauged out when he saw Adrian and me standing so close."Why are you with him?" Stefan asked, rushing beside me, checking if I was okay. "We sensed something was wrong and... Who did that to Betty? Are you alright?"I stepped away from Adrian, making me growl a little. But I felt more

Isla’s POV "Of course, you are not her. You will never be her! But that doesn't mean you don't remind me of her even more!" Adrian spat, running his hands through his hair, his eyes full of love and loss.Adrian’s words cut deep, making my blood boil. I kicked him in the gut and stepped away from him."Then stay away from me!" I shouted, my voice raw with emotion.He just kept looking at me, but I stormed out, not wanting to do anything with him. I should have gone home, where it was safer. But Adrian’s words echoed in my mind, clouding my judgment. I was driven by a need to find the murderer and clear my name. I stormed off into the thick forest again. My heart pounded, every step feeling heavier as the frustration churned inside me.I wasn't sure where exactly I was going, burning with rage. Just then, I nearly crashed into Lucas and Stefan. I stumbled back, startled by their sudden presence."Isla, are you okay?" Lucas asked with genuine concern. His eyes flicked over me as if he

Isla’s POV"Isla, how dare you go against me?" Adrian's mouth rubbed against my neck, as he whispered possessively. The way he pressed me against the wall lovingly and passionately made me squirm."Adrian!" I finally gasped, grabbing his shirt."If you ever defy me, it won't be good!" His fangs graze over my soft skin, sending tingles over my body.I closed my eyes, waiting for him to bite me again.I knew this was a dream. A cruel one. But I couldn't wake up. I had no control over myself as I tossed and turned.And finally, the alarm snoozed, waking me up from my dream, thankfully.I shot up, breathing heavily. I slapped my face, wanting to dissipate the blood that had settled in my cheeks, darkening my blush. How could I dream about something like that? I felt disgusted.I was glad I had made sure to set my alarm, determined not to repeat yesterday’s mistakes. But this came in handy. With this dream, I would surely have failed to make it in time. But now I wasn’t going to give Adria

Isla’s POVThe knot in my stomach twisted tighter as the end of class approached, each tick of the clock sending a shiver down my spine. The thought of meeting Adrian alone after class was choking my insides. And yet I knew I had to.The irony was I didn’t trust him. But I couldn't separate myself from him either. How could I? Our every other interaction flicked between contempt and obsession.As soon as the bell rang, I took a deep breath. Even though this morning I had decided not to let him toy with me, I was walking right into his trap again.I was walking absent-mindedly when Lucas caught the shift in my demeanor. "Isla, are you okay?" He asked, snapping me out of my daze. His eyes were sharp, filled with concern."Yeah, I am fine," I replied nonchalantly.He wasn’t convinced but didn’t press further. "You know you can come to me if you need help. With anything," he added, his voice genuine.I nodded, appreciating his concern, but knowing this was something I had to face on my ow

Adrian's POVWatching Isla smile at Lucas ignited irrational anger, jealousy eating at me from the inside out."Why the hell has she never smiled at me like that?" The thought gnawed at me, fueling the fire inside my heart. I didn't know why, but I couldn’t stand it, seeing her warm up to someone else so easily, while I stood on the sidelines.I clenched my fists, calling her over restlessly. She ignored me at first, which only made it worse. When she finally turned, her defiance was clear in every step, every breath. She was deliberately testing my patience.Later, when I was waiting for her to meet after the class at the designated spot, she came late. And I could feel the smell of that new guy lingering over her. My blood boiled. He had just come into my pack unannounced and had become friends with Isla already. Why was she trusting him so much and not me?"Keep your distance from Lucas," I snapped, the words coming out harsher than I intended. Her eyebrows shot up in surprise befo

Isla’s POVThe shadow...I knew immediately that it was the same shadow from last night. That strange smell was too sharp and distinct for me to make a mistake. And what shocked me was that it was the same scent I had been experimenting with a while ago. Nightspire Bloom.My heart pounded with the discovery.Just then, the shadow moved away with great speed.What was it doing outside my window? What does it want from me? I had to find out and perhaps this was my best chance.Without thinking much, I jumped out of my window, something I was too used to as I sneaked out often. I chased behind the scent, with sheer determination."Don't be reckless," my wolf warned, her voice sharp in my mind. "You might be running right into their trap! We must alert others. It could be dangerous." She tried to reason with me.But indeed, I was reckless and overwhelmed with my determination not to lose it again."I can’t let go of this opportunity!" I shot back through the bond. "I need to find answers

Adrian's POVI poured water on my face again, wiping my face clean again. But it failed to wipe out the kiss from my memory.My mind kept replaying the kiss with Isla the moment I got back to my room in the pack house from the back mountains. It wasn't planned, nor was it a proper kiss. It was needy, rough, and urgent, as if I was possessed by someone. But it was me and my jealousy. The guilt from it gnawed at me.But underneath that, guilt was something far more unsettling. Desire. An attraction. Some weird feelings.I wanted to kiss her again, and this time, I wanted to savor her soft, plump, luscious lips. I wanted this kiss to be gentler and meaningful, and even affectionate."Admit it! You have fallen for her," my wolf said, its voice echoing in my head. "The mate bond is irresistible.""Shut up," I growled back. "I haven’t fallen for anyone. Elara just died, and you think I fell for Isla?""Keep telling yourself that," my wolf scoffed."I am just confused. They look the same," I

Isla’s POVThe past two days had been a blur of exhaustion and determination. I poured every ounce of my energy, consumed by the task of creating an antidote for the Alpha. Every herb I crushed, every mixture I made pushed me closer to hope. The list of ingredients in the old medicine book was daunting. But I still managed to get them and prepare them, except for this one rare plant that grew on the treacherous cliffs of the Black Mountain Pack.My wolf stirred uneasily as I prepared to leave. "Take Lucas with you. It's dangerous to go alone," she urged.“I will be fine. Let's not depend on Lucas for everything.” I reassured her, brushing off the concern.After all, I had scaled those cliffs countless times before without incident. Then I wasn't even aware of my powers, nor did I had my wolf. I was stronger now. So I was confident this would be no different. I should not bother Lucas with such a trivial task.The trek to the cliffs was uneventful, though the sky grew darker with each

Adrian’s POVAs soon as Isla, Ryan, and Lucas left, the oppressive silence in the house only deepened. My father’s condition had deteriorated too quickly for it to be natural. I always felt that but I couldn't confirm it until now. But the truth was staring me in the face was bitter. He was poisoned.Isla's words echoed in my head. I needed to find out the culprit. I needed to investigate this properly. I shoved the frustrating thoughts clouding my mind, focusing on the task at hand.I called all the servants together in the dining hall, my voice firm and unwavering as I addressed them. “Something has been going on in this house, and I want answers. Has anyone noticed anything unusual recently? Any unfamiliar scents, strange behavior, or unexpected visitors? Anything that could have led to this?”The servants exchanged uneasy, nervous glances. I questioned them together and separately. At first, their responses were vague, nothing unusual, just the usual daily routines. Most had nothi
Eclipse of Twin Flames Chapter 75
Isla's POVRyan and I walked side by side to the Alpha’s house, Lucas trailing slightly behind us. There was a heavy silence, each one of us engrossed in our own thoughts. My nerves were on edge, but I kept my composure. The Alpha’s condition was critical, and I couldn’t let anything distract me.As we reached the heavy oak door of the Alpha's house, Ryan knocked firmly."Are you sure?" Lucas asked, his presence steady and reassuring."I am. " I need to check myself and see if I can help." I smiled, taking a deep breath. The door swung open, and there he was - Adrian. He seemed to have lost some weight, his face a mix of fatigue and wariness. For a brief moment, when his gaze fell on me, his face softened, and his eyes lit up with hope and relief, as if seeing me erased the weight of the world. And I couldn't help but look at him, frozen in my spot, something stirring inside my heart.He was about to say something when he closed his mouth as his eyes shifted to Lucas, standing protec
Eclipse of Twin Flames Chapter 74
Adrian's POVThe tension in the room was palpable as I faced Beta Robert and his mate Linda. Their faces were etched with concern, while Elara sat silently, a satisfied glint in her eyes.“Adrian,” Robert began, his voice measured but firm, “there is something else we need to discuss now, and it can't wait.""What?" I asked, raising my brows. A storm was brewing inside my chest. What else was waiting for me to face it? I glanced at Elara, and her wide smile told me it wouldn't be anything good for me."Elara has come forward with news… she is pregnant. And she claims the child is yours.”The words hung in the air, the weight of the revelation crashing down on me. I struggled to form a coherent response. My father’s health was failing, and now this? It felt like every corner of my world was collapsing.“Pregnant?” I stuttered, my voice barely above a whisper. The memory of the night I slept with Elara after Isla's rejection flashed through my head. What did I do? I felt like running a
Eclipse of Twin Flames Chapter 73
Isla’s POVMy mother’s gasp was the first sound that broke the silence. Her eyes widened in disbelief as she stumbled back, gripping the edge of the dining table for support. My father's face turned pale, his mouth opening and closing as if he couldn’t find the words.“Who... Who is the father?” My mother finally managed to break the eerie silence, her voice barely above a whisper. Elara’s voice cut through the tension like a blade. “It’s true,” she said, her tone trembling but resolute. “The child is Adrian’s. I swear it.”The revelation of Elara’s supposed pregnancy hit harder than I had expected. My parents stood frozen in disbelief, their Beta composure slipping for the first time in years.For me... I felt like my world collapsed at the very moment. Last night he came, promising me the moon and stars, while he was sleeping with Elara. But then, a part of me couldn't believe Elara. After all, she was a master of deception and manipulation. Doubt and confusion gnawed at me, as I s
Eclipse of Twin Flames Chapter 72
Elara's POVI had been trying to reach Adrian for some time now, but when I saw him earlier pleading with Lucas to ask Isla to see him, I knew I had to meet him and remind him about our engagement. I tried to call him several times, but he wouldn't answer my calls or texts.I wished he would come to me, apologize, and reassure me of where I stood in his life after Isla's repeated rejections at least. Instead, I found myself standing outside his home, eavesdropping on a conversation that shattered any remaining illusion I held.Every word between him and his father was a dagger to my heart.They were discussing Isla's power and how she needed his protection and support. I clenched my fist, wanting to thrash out something. I was about to barge in when what I heard next, made me freeze in my place, a tight knot twisting my heart.“If she is really the one, you won’t let her go so easily. Otherwise, you will regret it for life.” The alpha said, loud and clear.And Adrian’s response...“I

Isla’s POVLucas knocked gently on the door of my hospital room, leaning casually against the frame. “Adrian wants to see you,” he said, his voice calm. But I knew he was against it. My stomach tightened at the mention of Adrian's name. I shook my head. “No, Lucas. Tell him I don’t want to see him.”Lucas frowned slightly, stepping inside and closing the door behind him. “You are sure about this? Maybe you should talk to him.”“No. I can't.” I said firmly, though my voice revealed the turmoil within my heart. I glanced away to avoid Lucas's prying eyes. “I want to leave already. When I leave, maybe all this chaos will leave with me. The Black Mountain Pack doesn’t need me here. It never did. My presence only endangers them and complicates things for everyone around me.”Lucas’s expression softened, as he sat beside me. He reached out for my hand and squeezed it gently. His presence had been reassuring and steady in this chaotic phase. “I am with you. You are making the right decision
Eclipse of Twin Flames Chapter 70
Isla's POVBeing alone with Adrian was confusing, heartbreaking, and unsettling. I wanted to escape from this tension, to run away somewhere far where I wouldn't have to deal with these feelings I had developed for Adrian.So when I heard Lucas's voice, a wave of relief washed over me. "Let’s go," I said without wasting a second, my voice firmer now.Adrian's hand stopped from tending to my wounds, as he looked at us with gnawing jealousy when Lucas helped me up. Unexpectedly, Lucas lifted me into his arms, his touch gentle yet firm, ready to take me away. I clung to him momentarily, trying to steady my wavering resolve or perhaps hide the chaos in my mind. But as we moved, Adrian stepped into our way with such ferocity that it made my breath hitch. "You don’t have to do this, Isla," he said, his voice low but insistent.I swallowed the lump in my throat, my heart twisting at the raw emotion in his eyes. I met his gaze with as much determination as I could muster. "I want to go wit
Eclipse of Twin Flames Chapter 69
Isla's POVMy heart pounded in my chest, as I looked at Adrian in shock. How could he be the stranger I had saved all those years ago? My mind couldn’t wrap itself around the idea. He was the injured and vulnerable boy who had stumbled into my little world by the waterfall, while I nursed him back to health?I stared at him, my eyes widening in disbelief. "You... you are the stranger?" My voice trembled, so faint I barely recognized it as my own.He nodded, his eyes searching mine, full of something I couldn’t quite name. Regret? Anger? Deceit? Pain? He seemed as shocked as me. "It was you, Isla. All this time... I thought it was..." He sighed heavily, shaking his head."Who?" I whispered, my voice barely audible.Did he think it was Elara? Of course, he did! Why would he believe something like that?I had long forgotten about it, but now, somehow, as I processed his revelation, a strange sense of guilt gnawed at me. Why had he never told me or asked me about this? Why would he conclu
