CHAPTER 10: GOING BACK TO HIM

Isla

My heart thumped wildly in my chest as the doctors and nurses screamed above my head, their voices doing nothing but adding to the tremor in my bones as I watched them struggle to fix what was wrong with Tessa.

The heart monitor beeped wildly, like a ticking bomb, and a loud cry pierced into my eardrums.

It was me. I was the one screaming as I watched the life leave Tessa's body after each beat of the machine. Dante pulled me to his body, his scent enveloping me as he muttered soft words to me, his own hands shaking as they patted my head.

He was also scared. We both were. My little girl, our little girl, was dying, and we could do nothing but watch.

"What is going on, Isla?" Dante pulled me closer, his hand lifting my head to face him. "What's happening, baby?" He inquired, the worry in his eyes increasing as he cleaned off my tears.

I tried to speak, but I couldn't, as the doctors around us shot orders at each other.

"We need to undergo an emergency procedure right now!"

"No!" I

    ISLA’S POVMy temple pulsed like the beating of a drum. My eyelids fluttered as I slipped back into consciousness. My eyes tried to adjust to the darkness. I tried to hold my head as the ache intensified, but my hands were bound upwards with a chain.Where am I? My eyes further adjusted to the dark. The only source of light was the little opening that served as a window. I looked around, trying to make out where I was.The walls were rough and made of stone, giving the room a damp feeling. Numerous cages were at either side of the room.I gasped, realising although slowly, that I was in a chamber and I was chained to a wall.My kids!The memory of last night came rushing back and I struggled to pull the chain that bound my hands together, but it only dug more into my wrists, the silver burning my skin."Help me!" I screamed, my heart beating fast at the absence of my babies. Where have they taken them? What did they do to them?"Somebody please help! Tristan! Tessa!"The echoes of my

    IslaWith one final look at me, Axel turned to leave the throne room as guards entered."I can't wait to see your ugly little head on the floor when we find out those kids are bastards." Lana giggled as she walked after Axel.I moved to follow them, an opportunity to see my kids wherever they were kept but the guards stopped me from going with Axel and Lana."You are going back to your cell." One said, his hand gripping mine tightly like a vice.Puzzled, I tried to pull away from his grip. "You can't take me back there, I want to see my kids!"A groan ripped out of Axel as he turned on his heels."You are going to stay in your cell, until the results are out.""You can't prevent me from seeing my kids Axel. Tell them to let me go." I demanded, still struggling in the guards' hold.Lana started to speak, but was silenced by a hand from Axel."We could cancel everything now, and kill them. Hell, I don't give a damn either way." His eyes challenged me, daring me to see how far he could g

    LanaThe sight of Isla back in this pack caused a feeling more intense than ever before to erupt within me.Fear that all what I've planned and worked to get was going to go to dust the minute she put her claws on Axel.For the past years, I've crawled my way through numerous women, sabotaging when need be, their connection to Axel. I've destroyed some, I've threatened some, just to make sure the throne beside Axel stays empty for me.I've made my mark well known and bold enough, so that when a member of this pack thought of their Luna, they thought of me.And I've fought hard to make sure it stays that way.Until news of Isla's arrival shook the strong foundation I had built in her absence. Questions arose from the lips of all, the major question being that, what would happen now that Isla, Axel's mate was back.Rumors flew around, and the visible fact being that I wasn't Luna stood out like a sore thumb.They felt Isla was here to take back her crown and become Luna by Axel's side.

    AxelThe pack healers placed the little girl on a stretcher, taking her to the pack clinic. I followed closely behind, taking the little boy to see his sister and make sure she was okay.I knew how the last few hours have taken a toll on him.First seeing your mother almost getting executed then your sister having a seizure, that was more than what a little child can bear.Which brings me back to the main matter at hand, why did Isla come back? Why did she return with those kids, after hiding them from me all these years and after I tried my best to clear every trace of her in my life?Of course I knew those kids belonged to me. My wolf felt a pull to the little wolves in them, especially the little boy, as the next Alpha.I wasn't going to execute the mother of my kids in front of her children, all I planned to do was to send a warning to her and ban her from ever coming back to the pack.There was no day I didn't think about her, and the way I treated her all those years ago was unf

    IslaAxel's growl caused goosebumps to erupt on my skin, my heart jumped at the animalistic snarl he was giving me.But I refused to show him how he affected me by glaring straight into his eyes. "Keep your growl in. I wouldn't let you wake the kids."That did nothing to stop him as the anger in his eyes flashed. "Don't provoke me, Isla. I will ignore every other thing, but putting the fate of my kids in the hands of a lowlife man? I had no idea you had no sense of reasoning. "Anger sprouted in me as his words sank in.I opened my mouth to speak, but we were interrupted by the healer, a different one from the one who attended to us earlier."I'm sorry Alpha, miss." He bowed his head, looking oddly terrified as he snuck glances at Axel."Please, carry on." Axel replied.The healer nodded, but the fear in his eyes remained."Can we step out?"We silently followed the healer, and I glared at Axel's muscular back as he walked in front of me."We have set the date for the surgery.

    IslaAxel didn't think twice before nodding, and I turned on my heels, rushing as fast as I could to the room, where the snake still roamed free, although, thankfully, my kids' carefree laughter echoed from behind the door.My heart sank as we saw Cindy's condition. She was lying on the floor, her face pale and sweaty, her leg clearly in pain.I ran to her, guilt filling me as I cradled her head in my lap, "I'm so sorry Cindy. "She tried to smile but instead winced as the pain in her leg throbbed.Without much hesitation, Axel stormed up to the snake, lunging at it and crushing it beneath his boot. Relief flooded me as I watched the snake get disposed of.Axel turned his attention to us, a bit of pity behind his eyes as he took in Cindy's condition. "That was a deadly snake, even for werewolves."My heart dropped to the pit of my stomach as I watched Cindy struggle to breathe, "Help me with her."He walked to the curtains, cutting a strip of clothes and tying it around her leg swiftl

I SWEAR IF I WAS THERE, HE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO BREATHE AGAIN THAT MOTHERFUCKER!"I breathed in and exhaled, partially expecting this reaction from Dante. Normally he was ca, but when he felt disrespected or cheated, well, thank Goodness I wasn't on speaker phone.I can't possibly begun with the twins asking me what the meaning of mother fucker was."ALPHA MY ASS.

Dante repeated, his voice holding a tinge of disbelief.

    IslaThe kids kept talking at once, and I suggested we go to the garden outside. They needed fresh air with the way they were using the one we managed to tell their daddy everything.But they paid me no attention, until Axel repeated what I had said, then they agreed gleefully, racing him to the garden while I waited behind to pack up the essentials they would need.I have seen Tessa excited many times, but never have I seen Tristan that excited since I gave birth to him. They spoke to him like they have known him for years, something that was weird for them to do to strangers. Tessa could offer a smile to a stranger, but Tristan avoided them completely. But seeing them do this, made me wonder if it was the bond between their father and them.Maybe it was stronger since they were all Alpha wolves.Whatever it was, I felt oddly protective. Maybe it was a bad idea giving in to their demands. How would things be when we have to return back home? Would they want to leave their dad especia

    ISLA'S POVDante was back once again.It was like he wasn’t going to take no for an answer.“I’m back, my love,” he slurred, moving close to Axel and me. “Did you miss me?”I inhaled a stench coming out of his mouth. He was drunk.“Guards!” Axel called out. “Take this man out of my palace.”“Axel, he’s in a poor state. I don’t think -"“- He needs to go!” Axel interrupted in a firm voice and then turned to face his guards. “Seize him.”They bowed their head before turning to apprehend Dante forcefully, and then they dragged him out of the palace.“I’m going to be back, and I’m not going to stop until I prove to you that I’m worthy of your forgiveness.”“This is madness!” Axel said once Dante had left our sight, “Pure madness.”“If you say so!” I said calmly.“It seems his little act is beginning to soften you!” He arched a brow.“It’s not. I want him to be as far away from me as possible. But it’s dark, and he’s in a vulnerable state. We can’t just leave him out there like that.”“Whe

    ISLA'S POVI was glad that Dante obeyed my words and left, and my only concern was if he would truly stick to his words.“I will see that he lets you be.”Axel's voice drew me out of my thoughts, and I faced him with a smile.“Thanks.”I closed the door behind me, and I was finally able to take the nap I desperately needed.The next time I woke up, the sun had gone down, and I was confused about how long I had fallen asleep.I was still trying to figure it out when I heard a knock on the door, so I drew my dress tightly around my body and proceeded to the door. When I opened it, my anger resurfaced.“Dante! I made it very clear that you should leave.”“I know you did, but then I realized that you haven’t rested after everything that happened. That’s why you acted that way,” he said, looking me straight in the eyes. “We are adults, Isla, and matters like this can be handled with any fuss, and I got you this.”I didn’t realize that his hand had tucked behind his back until I saw him str

    ISLA'S POVThe scene in front of me was devastating.I might have hated Stephanie for betraying me and pretending to be who she wasn’t, but I couldn't shake off the thought that she was once a friend as I turned to look at her.She had changed and didn’t look like the person I had known. Her features were different.“Throw her into the woods,” Axel instructed his guards, “And make sure you don’t leave until she’s eaten by some animal.”The guards nodded, carrying Stephanie away, and then Axel turned to face me. He moved closer, wrapping me into an embrace.“I’m so glad that you’re safe,” He murmured before placing a kiss on my head.It was the sweetest thing I had seen Axel do. Maybe the fact that he had almost lost me made him realize a lot of things.“How did you even find me?”“I used the mate haunt. I discovered you were missing after I sent Ray to inform you about the kids.”“The kids? What happened to the kids?”“Stephanie had tried to drown them,” he deadpanned.My face fell. “W

    AXEL'S POVI didn’t want Isla to find out that I was going in search of the children. I told her I had important things to do, and she seemed to have bought it because she didn’t question me.I was glad I didn’t tell her they were missing, as I could only imagine how she would have felt seeing her daughter in that state.As I pulled myself out of my thoughts, my eyes landed on my daughter’s body, which appeared so lifeless, and my heart ached so badly.I wrapped her in my hands, heading to the nearest hospital with my men and Tristian by my side.“Drive faster!” I shouted at the driver, and my hands, which were wrapped around my daughter, were quivering.He didn’t respond, but he increased the car's speed, and I kept staring at my daughter, pushing her hair backward.“You’re going to be fine!” I said as I continued to caress her hair. “Hang in there for me.”“Is she going to be okay, Daddy?” Tristan’s voice met my ears. He sounded afraid.“She’s going to be alright. You don’t have to

    TRISTIAN'S POVTristian watched as Stephanie grabbed his sister’s hair. He was frightened, but he knew his sister would get hurt if he didn’t intervene.“Let my sister go!” Tristan stood up from where he was and moved in Stephanie’s direction.As he got closer, his eyes reflected sternness, but the next thing that happened took him by surprise. He didn’t expect it and knew he couldn’t stop it.Stephanie grabbed him by the hair, and her fingers, or rather claws in Tristian’s description, dug into his skull. He felt pain radiate through his body at that point and yelled above his lungs.He wasn’t the only one yelling. His sister was also shouting and fussing, trying her best to free herself from Stephanie’s clutches.Tristian didn’t have it in him to kick, so he just kept yelling, increasing his tone every second, and he hoped someone would come to save them - probably his dad, mom, or some guard.In his six-year-old mind, he was hoping for a miracle. Actually, he was wishing for someth

The sad look on Isla’s face caught my eyes, and I felt very satisfied. I couldn’t wait for the final plan. The pain Isla was feeling couldn’t be compared to the pain she would feel once she discovered that her kids had been drowned.As for Axel, little did he know that his life had crumbled. The kids are gone, and Isla is about to have the shock of her life and die from a heart attack when she finds out about the death of her kids. Gosh! How much I loved how everything was playing out. I was having a good day, and it was only going to get better. I was going to see Axel, and I planned to visit him looking like Isla.Before heading out, I went to see Isla again. Her head was hung low when I entered, but she seemed to have heard my footsteps because she looked up, gnawing at me. “Hey! Hey!” I said, moving closer to her. “You do

    STEPHANIE’S POVI heard a knock on the door and stood up quickly, hoping it wasn’t Isla. My cheeks hurt from fake smiling all day and pretending I cared about her.I couldn’t wait for the hour when the sun would set so I could execute my plans, and I smirked just thinking about it, but the smirk left my lips the second I heard the knocking sound.I walked to the door and opened it gently, and the pissed look on my face faded after my eyes landed on Isla.As I questioned her, my cheeks were hurting from smiling, but I had to keep up the act.“Yes, how do I look?”I gave her a reply, and I watched her giggle like a happy little kid as she walked away. I couldn’t wait to wipe that smile off her face and watch her beg for mercy and the kids. How could I forget how I would make those little angels suffer?Isla and Axel would never know what hit them. It would be like a storm crashed into their life and wrecked it all.I laughed and shut the door behind me as I moved close to my bed and dro

    ISLA’S POVI headed to my room with joy spiraling in my heart. The fact that Axel had apologized made me so happy. I didn’t expect him to make that move, but I was glad he did, and the minute my eyes landed on my room door, a smile caressed my lips.I pulled it open quickly, walking in the direction of my wardrobe right away. I didn’t have any idea of what I was going to wear, and as I pulled open the wardrobe, I realized deciding what to wear would be a very difficult task.I took a deep breath before digging into the pile of clothes in my wardrobe, and I started with a black dress with a cute slit, but it didn’t look appealing when I tried it on, so I decided to try on another cloth with a similar design but a different color.When I stood in front of the mirror, I wasn’t very pleased with my appearance, so I removed the gown and sat on the bed.I hated this.I wondered why I was dressing up for Axel. I wanted to just try on something simple, but this was the first time Axel and I w

    AXEL’S POV“I feel like a bad mother,” Isla said, and the sadness in her eyes caused my heart to churn. The stern demeanor I had on dropped that instant.“The kids hate me. That’s why they are mad at me and why they’re not talking to me and rejecting my food. And things feel so weird.”“I think you’re overthinking it.” My voice sounded a bit edgy.“I’m not, Axel. I could feel that distance between us, and Stephanie also communicated their feelings to me.”“I understand,” I said, feeling her pain. “But you don’t need to let that bother you. I’m sure they would come around.”“How can I not? My own children hate me,” she continued speaking. “A mother is meant to be a role model to her kids, but I’m nothing of that much.”“You’re Isla. You have always been a role model to your kids.”“Well, I don’t think they feel so, and you’re only saying these words to make me feel better.” She sighed sadly, a sign I wasn’t doing an excellent job of helping her feel better.I wasn’t really good at coax
