Have you realize

Turning to Giovanni, Isabella mustered the courage to pose her question once more, her voice trembling with uncertainty. "Giovanni, did I... Did I just have intimate relations with a wild creature, with a wolf, and not a human?"Giovanni's gaze softened as he met Isabella's fearful eyes. After a brief pause, he nodded slowly, acknowledging the truth. "Yes, Isabella. The creature you encountered, the one we shared that intimate connection with, was indeed a werewolf."Isabella's breath caught in her throat, a mix of disbelief and fear coursing through her veins. She took a step back, her mind overwhelmed by the implications of Giovanni's response. "But... how is that possible? How can I... how can I trust what happened between us?"Giovanni's expression turned pained as he reached out, his voice filled with regret. "Isabella, I understand your concerns and fears. I should have been honest with you from the beginning. I am a werewolf, and in that moment, my transformation had taken hold
Isabella hurriedly washed up and changed into her most comfortable outfit. Eagerly, she stepped out of the balcony and plopped down on the couch, ready to take in the scenery. As she peered out, she saw Ryle, playing with Adam, on the beach. She couldn't help but smile as she watched them have fun, and suddenly Giovanni, joined in on the fun as well. "Look at them!

Isabella's mind whirled with a myriad of emotions, ranging from disbelief to awe, as she struggled to comprehend the extraordinary truth laid before her. A torrent of questions flooded her thoughts, each demanding answers to the enigmatic nature of Giovanni's existence."100 years old?" Isabella repeated incredulously, her voice barely above a whisper.
