Hey guys. I'm sorry for disappearing on you, but I have been on vacation in Orlando, Florida. It's been an exciting week, with lots of good memories. However! I am back, and more than ready to continue the journey of Elijah and Isabela.
Isabella P.O.V. “What the hell do you mean she is arrested on such serious charges? Son, she could never.. She is your mother!” Desmond has been yelling at us for the past hour. He was waiting at the front door when we walked in, and he followed us to Elijah’s office. We haven’t been able to get a word in because every time it seems like he is taking a breath, he starts yelling again. He has been asking a million questions, but most of all he’s been rambling on why his mate could never do what she is accused of. As he finally sits down, Elijah leans forward with me on his lap. His eyes are in turmoil and I feel the chaos that is swirling in his chest. “Dad, we would never take such drastic messrs if we were not 100% sure of her being guilty. She worked with a dark witch, and had my mate mark removed along with all my memories of Isabella.” “But how come she is on your lap then?” “Because Selene kept me in a coma until she could restore my mate mark and my memories.” He sighs
Isabella P.O.V. Callum accepted to be our new Delta, and we were all very pleased with having him. He’s a sweetheart with a knack for leading under guidance. More than once in the following weeks, he had to take over at the pack, because both Elijah and I, Dale and Ashlee and Ashton and Milan were away at the same time. As I predicted we had a lot of visitors - other Alpha’s, witches, warlocks and other shifters. We even had a visit from a clan of converted demons. Some of them still had their powers, but they were using them to rid the world of evil. They were excellent assassins, which we welcomed with open arms. We also had to take care of some internal differences as older pack members were not as pleased with all the changes we were making. Elijah had to put his foot down and tell them they were welcomed to find another pack, but as we were the King and Queen, we were also working on laws pertaining packs to be acceptable for other species - not necessarily taking them in
Elijah P.O.V. I never thought my life would take this drastic of a turn, but ever since Isabella entered my life everything has been turned upside down. Not that I am complaining. Not even by an inch. She has turned everything to the better. Before I was living, but I wasn’t really alive. She has given meaning to life. She has filled my heart and soul with love, and turned me into an even better version of myself. I love her with all I am, and that is why it is so damn hard to be away from her. I don’t like this part, but I know it’s necessary if we want to show everyone we are a strong unit. We are the King and Queen, and therefore we have a responsibility for all our people. We heard about the various Alpha’s who swore to kill us, and we made it our mission to visit all of them and show them who we are. More than one decided against their original resolve when they got to know us. We opted to travel together to the packs where we felt the Alpha was following someone else. The
Isabella P.O.V. My eyes darted between the people at the border. A girl is hiding behind Callum, while the guards are on the defense. She cowers, trying to keep herself out of sight. I wonder if she is the one who triggered the alarm, and if that is the case - why is Callum defending her so adamantly? “Nestor, answer me!” I order our Second in Command. He keeps sending the girl evil suspicious eyes. They move from her to me, and I think that is when he realizes both Elijah and I are here. He straightens his back. “Your Majesty, this.. Creature.. Triggered the alarm, but Delta Callum refuses to let us take her into custody.” Nestor replies calmly, his men growling at the woman. She hisses at him, and I cock my head to the side. What is she? She is definitely not a wolf shifter. I narrow my eyes at her, calling forth my powers. I have no idea if this will work, but I’ve noticed if I concentrate enough, I am able to see one’s inner self. Her figure shifts to a woman with ice blue ey
Unknown P.O.V. Ever since I was little, my mom always told me how special I am. She used to spend hours just me and her, and I enjoyed the undivided attention for her. She never really liked father or my incompetent little brother. She always said it was me and her against the world. That someday I would be King of everything. Someday I would take my rightful place as the strongest of all supernaturals. Mother always knew about father’s lineage. That was why made that deal with the disgustion Alpha of Green Forest. She also knew father wasn’t her destined mate, but she made him her mate. She made sure to seduce him, and have him mark and mate her in a moment of weakness. Sure, she had to resolve to use a forbidden potion, so he thought he had done it willingly. When in reality; she had forced him. When the potion ran out, the damned witch refused to supply more, knowing what she had done. The witch warned mother. She said the Goddess always punished those who stray from their destin
Alex P.O.V.It’s been a while now, and Michelle is getting better day for day. She’s still fragile, but the doctors dismissed her from the pack clinic yesterday. She and Cedric have moved to the Alpha floor. They have both started much needed therapy, and I see them take steps every day to get better, even though they always have bad days. Especially has days where she hides in their room, not even coming down to get food. Jenna has made a point to visit her everyday, making friends and keeping her company. I still do not know how to feel about her? She is my biological mother, as Cedric is my father, but they abandoned me and Isabella to our own fate as children, and the way especially my sister was treated was at their hands as well as Ferguson’s. If they had taken us with them. If they had thought about us as well, Isabella would have had it easier. I know I am also to blame, and I take full responsibility, but I was a child. “Knock, knock.” Someone says while tapping their knuck
Isabella P.O.V. “ELIJAH!” I look into his office, but he is not there either. I have been looking for him for the last hour or so. I’ve just talked to Alex and I need to fill him in. My scream of desperation is met upon deaf ears. I sigh. Where the heck did everyone go? I wasn’t gone that long. The phone call took half an hour tops. I roll my eyes, walking back to our bedroom. I try to mind-link him again, but once again the link is blocked. I do not understand. I tried to look downstairs, at the training ground, our room, his office and everywhere else I could think of. I even tried to mind-link some of the others, but all mind-links are blocked and people are gone. I look around in our room. Elijah has been weird all day not that I think of it. He’s been really secretive and illusive ever since this morning. We cuddled in bed, which developed to three rounds of hot and steamy sex! But it didn’t get as wild as it usual
Elijah P.O.V. The panic I felt coursing through me when I couldn’t find Isabella. I didn’t even think to open my mind-link and ask her where she was. It was just sheer panic and dread in my mind and body. I left her in her office where she was calling Alex. She felt weird all of a sudden, and I know it wasn’t from me. I closed off our mate-link as well - not that she felt it. I hope. Oh Goddess. What if she wandered off to punish me? What if she felt me close the link and thought. No, no. I can’t think like that. Maybe she wandered off because she couldn’t find me? Maybe she was looking for me? “Elijah?” “Huh? What?” “What were you thinking off just now?” “Nothing special, baby. Why?” I lie through my teeth. I need Isabella to be relaxed and happy. With what I have in mind for today, she needs to not worry about me or anything else. She is the most special person in my life, and even though we haven’t been together that long, I know she is my it! That’s how it is with one's
