Isla’s P.O.V As I stood in front of the packhouse, the rain was coming down in sheets. I was drenched before I even stepped outside. I looked around, ensuring nobody was watching me, before I slipped out the door. I needed to get away, to clear my head, to get away from the chaos that was the packhouse. Cleo was desperate to take over, and I knew that Aaron and his wolf would make me back down if he appeared before I could leave. "We have to get out of here," Cleo told me sternly, and I pushed the door open. The second I slipped outside, the rain started to pelt down on me; it was getting heavier as I rushed towards the woods that separated the pack house from the borders. The wind picked up, and the sky turned dark grey. Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed across the sky; I knew then that I had to get out of there before it was too late. I was panicking, and the storm was getting worse by the second. I felt like the rain and the wind would swallow me up. I ran mind
Chapter Three My Mate Is Lost Aaron’s pov. As I trudge through the storm, rain pours down my tired face and soaking through my clothes. My heart is pounding away in my chest as I scream and yell out for Isla. Where is she? I wait a few seconds to hear a response but there is nothing but the sound of the wind and rain howling. Lightning flashes giving me a few seconds of light as it illuminates my surrounding area before plunging me back into the darkness. I am an alpha, but this is scary. Isla is my mate, my Luna and I cannot allow anything to happen to her, I am fiercely protective of my mate, especially since she is a hybrid and it is my job to make sure that she comes to no harm, Not many know of Isla and her powers, it would cause an uproar within the pack and my own family, if they knew their Luna was a witch. But I did not care about that since I love her bones of her, my wolf would rip anyone’s throat out who dared to harm a hair on her body. All that ma
Aaron’s POV I wake up the following day having hardly slept a wink; I feel miserable and angry. I feel like a ship lost at sea without Isla by my side. I miss her company and the sense of purpose that we shared. It's hard to find the motivation to continue my work without her there to support me. Every second, I find myself searching for a way to bring her back, hoping that I'll be able to reunite with her soon. It's like a piece of me is missing, and I can't quite figure out how to fill it. But I won't give up. I'm determined to find a way to bring Isla back, no matter what it takes. I'll scour every inch of this world if I have to, searching for the clues that will lead me to her. I know that I need to stay focused and keep pushing forward, but it's hard to do that when I feel so alone. I can feel my heart racing as I think about the dangers that lie ahead. But I won't let fear stop me. I'll do whatever it takes to find Isla and return her to safety. I hope she's out the
Isla’s POV I woke up the next morning and my head was throbbing with pain, I look around and see a maid standing in the doorway, watching me with suspicion. "Who are you?" the maid demands. "What are you doing here?" I try to sit up, but my head spins and I fall back onto the bed. "I don't know," I say weakly. "I can't remember anything. All I remember is Mrs Jenkins asking me what I remember and that I am safe here.” I exclaimed tearfully. “Oh yes she is the lady of the house. She's a face of a grandmother but the heart of a devil. “ the girl sighed and walked towards me. She picked up the glass of water and inspected it. “Yes I can see now.” “What?” “Mrs Jenkins has been feeding you poison to block your mind. The maid, whose name tag says Sasha, looks at me skeptically. "Are you remembering something?" I nod, feeling tears prick at the corners of my eyes. "It's true," I say. "I'm a hybrid witch." Sasha raises an eyebrow. "A hybrid which? That's not possible
Chapter Six Pembroke As my Beta and I approached the Pembroke pack, my heart was heavy with dread. The once-bustling pack was now deserted and eerie, with no sign of life since the attack. I got out of my car and slowly closed the door. My warriors had not found anyone here, and no sign of Isla. She had not been here yet because I knew that I would have sensed her being here. The silence was deafening, and I couldn't help but feel like I was walking through a graveyard. Technically, it was, but all the dead bodies had been taken away. We did not want Isla to see them in the state they were. That would have destroyed her. I took a deep breath and began to assess the damage to the pack. The buildings were in ruins, with broken windows and doors hanging off their hinges. The smell of smoke and burnt wood hung heavy in the air, and I could see scorch marks on the walls and the ground. It was clear that the pack had put up a fight, but it hadn't been enough. Walking through th
Chapter Seven Isla’s pov Is Sasha his mate? The sight of Aaron after so long was like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day, but being back at Pembroke was like a punch in the gut. The place was in ruins, and the memories flooded back, each more painful than the last. I wanted to scream, cry, or do something to release the churning emotions. The charred remains of the building, the stench of smoke, and the debris littered the ground were a stark reminder of what we had lost. Aaron had brought his warriors with him, but it was too little, too late. The damage had already been done, and there was no going back. As I stood there, looking out at the charred remains of Pembroke, I couldn't help but feel a deep sense of loss. So many fond memories flooded back to me, memories of happier times when the pack was still intact, and we were all together. Now, all that remained were the ruins of what used to be our home, and the pain of the loss was almost too much to bear. As I gaze
Aaron's POV. Nigel’s mate. I'm glad that my mate is back. Holding her in my arms again feels fantastic. It's like we're finally complete again. But then, there was a commotion. My beta was acting crazy over Isla's new friend, and she seemed afraid. “Are you sure that she is your mate?” I questioned my beta. He nodded. “It's Mrs Jenkins's fault.” isla blurted out, and I was confused even more. When Isla explained what had happened to her, it made sense to me. Mrs Jenkins sounded like a psycho, and we couldn't let her harm either of the girls again. Nigel was convinced that she was his mate, but as she wasn't feeling it, I knew that I had to get her and Isla to safety. I was glad that Isla had someone to help her through this. Suddenly, one of my warriors interrupted us, saying a knocking sound came from one of the buildings. I felt Isla stiffen up and run towards where the warrior had pointed to. She ignored my call. I had to ensure everyone was safe, but Isla wa
The Shock Once back at the packhouse, Nigel and taken Sasha to settle in one of the spare bedrooms and Aaron took charge with organising our survivors and making sure everyone was ok. A few omegas hurried around with blankets and cups of hot drinks. I could feel my heart pounding as I thought about Pembroke and my sister. The memory of their last moments being attacked was still fresh in my mind. The whole pack is gone just like that. It was all so unfair. But then my thoughts turned to the baby I was holding. Cora would be relieved to know that the baby was safe with me. I was determined to protect her, no matter what. Looking around at the other survivors, I could see the shock and trauma etched on their faces. I couldn't blame them for feeling that way. After all, they had just witnessed something truly horrific. For a moment, I felt overwhelmed with emotion. I wanted to break down and cry, to scream at the unfairness of it all. But I knew that I couldn't. I had to b
