Isabella's POV

Numbness filled my entire being.

I had to read it again, the whole thing, to be sure.

'I'll add another ten if you get the rogue slut tonight.'

I wished it wasn't true, or I was ignorant enough to not have realized what it was about, but I wasn't stupid. It was evident who he meant.

I was a rogue. It was obvious who they were talking about.

Pressing the button to make the phone sleep, my hand rose to cup my mouth, fisting my shirt with the other. A wave of nausea wracked me, and I was thankful that I wasn't spilling the juice I had on the floor.

I had to go, escape, be anywhere but where I was at the moment. It was all too much, the revelation and emotions.

My mind took me to the room, the cradle. Treasure.

I wanted… No, I needed to go home.

The panic I had nearly escaped took over me instantly. It took will power to not barge in and run out, but Violet spoke within me.

"You can't run in there smelling of panic." She said, trying to calm me down.

So slowly, I took de

    Isabella's POVSwallowing the small lump in my throat, I stepped into the kitchen area. He was looking for something, likely pots."Is Agathe around?" I finally brought myself to say.The slight clanging of pots was the only notable sound. "She went to get groceries."I nodded stiffly, still not making eye contact with him. This was technically the first time we had spoken in the same area since last week.Looking away, I instantly decided on making a sandwich, gathering the bread and leftover vegetables.I moved to carry a knife, just to brush warm flesh.I flinched away from his hand, aiming for a different knife before I chopped."How was your party?" He asked.The mention of the party brought all the memories back, good and bad. The knowledge of the phone laying on my bedroom floor put a bitter taste in my mouth."It was fine," I said. It was best if I kept our interactions short anyways. Time passed in a tense silence. I was almost done when I heard his voice again."I heard yo

    Isabella's POVI remain frozen on the bed whilst Claire moved over, taking the phone from Sierra."What's going on?" She asked, reading the messages. All the while Sierra stared straight at me. I couldn't lose contact with her."I've only read a part of this message and I'm already doing my best to calm down, so tell me what this is supposed to mean." She said."That is... Aiden's phone," I began.The both of them tensed, even Claire looked up to face me. The tension in the air was so thick, one could cut it with a knife. I had to explain quickly. And so, I explained to the both of them everything that had happened yesterday. And what I had learned from his phone. Even Claire, who was still gaining knowledge of werewolves, did her best to understand."So you're telling me. They thought you were easy because you were a rogue, and made a bet with Aiden, their human friend, to sleep with you?" Claire asked, sitting beside me on the bed, the quiet anger in her voice not going unnoticed.I

    Leo "Don't involve yourself."The memory of her words still affected me. Why?I had made some bad decisions, ones which had further estranged me from her, but now my curiosity couldn't be fulfilled.At least she was in better terms, more amiable compared to before. Weeks had gone by and yet I couldn't figure it out. Why?Why?"Leo?" The voice brought me out of my thoughts.Eyes and faces of men and women, all focused on me. It took little ease to slip back into my role, crossing my fingers with each other and resting on them, whilst recalling the last words said."Is that everything that needs to be done, Michael?" I called out.The man, a skinny nervous thing whose suit always overpowered the rest of him nodded. "Yes Sir."I nodded in turn before standing. "We'll end the meeting here. The rest of you can send in your reports by email." I remained in my seat even after everyone filed away from the meeting room until it was empty.Dark Haus. The firm I had made for myself.Using part

    Isabella.On Monday morning, I arrived in my office and found Damian standing there. His face was as white as a sheet, slight wrinkles lines which weren't there before apparent. "Sierra told you," I said simply. He nodded, chuckling uneasily whilst shaking his head. "I promise to find those that did this. But first, I'd like to apologize."I shook my head and took a step back, but he continued. "You may not like it, but this is my pack. I didn't know their animosity for rogues could go this deep, be this harmful. It is partly my fault. I had been trying to get the relationship between the pack better, remove the animosity and slowly integrate them. I thought you being here will help with that. Help them get used to the idea that rogues aren't bad. But instead you were put in the line of fire. I'm sorry." He ended, shoulders slumped.I put my hand on his shoulder for comfort. Despite my emotions, I knew that he was far from responsible. I told him exactly that."You're a good perso

    Isabella's POV The car engine switched off as we were in front of the pack house. I didn't even notice that we had reached our destination until I had almost fallen when Sierra opened the door on my side -one which I was leaning on.My quick reflexes were my saving grace, ensuring that I restored my balance before stepping out of the car. Sierra bore an empathetic look on her face as I looked up. I ignored her and moved towards the living room, crashing on the nearest couch as I did so. Perhaps I should have listened to Sierra. Despite my efforts at gaining normalcy, the toll on my mind mixed with the events of the day had sucked me dry. Listlessness was all I could feel. I felt pressure on the side of the couch before a warm hand touched my shoulder. I sighed, knowing it was Sierra"I have to go very soon." Her statement made me open my eyes to look at her."I'm so sorry I can't stay with you. I have the evening shift tonight." Sierra said, guilt on her features.I couldn't rely o

    Leo's POV "Leo." I stopped, looking at the young woman in the living room. Unexpectedly, she apologized and for the second time, rendered me surprised as she asked me to stay with her.I could have refused easily, and yet...She looked different, and not in a good way. Even from the way she lay almost bonelessly on the couch, to the weariness of her eyes. She looked... exhausted.I couldn't have stopped myself from sitting beside her. Even though soon after she tried pushing me away, I stayed. I could see how the fight left her and she let out one simple statement."I feel like shit."I didn't know her struggle or what had happened to her. So I did the only thing I thought of.I talked, and stayed."Thank you."In a matter of minutes, she fell asleep. I could tell from how much slowly her breaths were, and the twitches of her closed eyes. White strands fell over her face, and I stopped my instinct from moving to brush it back.My facination to her was still a mystery, even till tha

    Isabella's POV The next few days remained the same. I woke up, went to the red eclipse pack, taught before leaving.After what I had said, the people who looked at me within the school avoided eye contact. If they were truly ashamed, it was better.My only solace during work were the children. Although I was the sole math teacher for all classes through elementary, it was never tasking, but rather the highlight of my day.I was grateful for the pure minds of all the children, untainted by bias or prejudice. I hoped they stayed the same.Aiden unfortunately didn't get the hint as he messaged me the night I gave him his phone. Short given answers were given in return until I couldn't even bother replying. He seemed to finally understand as after that day, was silence.Time passed, and it was already a Friday. The school day had already ended, and everyone else left. I was packing the rest of my things to leave. Suddenly my office door opened to reveal Sierra.Why was she here?"What's

How was he even allowed in?Swallowing, I turned to Sierra."I'll talk to him," I said.She gave me a look, her face subtly confirming my sureness. I responded with a nod before I stepped out of the car. Sierra drove off to park the car, entering the house with a glare all the while I faced Adian."What do you want?" My voice was not so tender as I asked the question.He shook his head, not answering my question. "Isabella, I… I want to talk to you. Tell you everything.""Alright then," I countered. Even if he didn't answer, I knew I wanted to listen to him, for my own sake. I folded my arms, gazing at him blankly. "Talk."Time passed as he shared his side of the story and all the while, I listened.It had only happened when one of his friends caught my scent on him. Their knowledge turned malicious, and soon he was roped into the bet. He had

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Epilogue.

    Isabella.Treasure played freely amongst other children. The happiness in his eyes made me smile from the window I watched him in.He had taken to them very well, free to reveal his claws at any time, compared to before.After what felt like minutes of watching, I settled back down onto the couch, filled with stacked books I was hoing to remove for the day.I settled into the dark couch where even before I left, it gave comfort. Now I needed that more than ever.It felt like before, yet everything was so different. Now Sierra came occasionally, no longer a resident of the pack yet still belonging to it. She had all the grace of a Luna. It was something I had known for a long time, yet pleased to see nonetheless - nevermind that I still beat her whenever it came to sparring.The biggest difference, however, was me.I had once come here as a guest, hiding myself away from the pack and not wanting to get attached. Now I was here as Leo's mate and the first and new Luna of the rogue pack.

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Let’s go home.

    Leo.I looked at Isabella who bore a stricken look. The disbelief in her was the same one I faced.This was the first time I had physically seen the person right in front of me, and as I looked at him, an open scar on his face with his hair in disarray and his eyes crazed, I knew what my answer would be.Turning to Isabella, I conveyed all I needed to, squeezing her hand lightly. She seemed to understand as she nodded. I let her go, walking toward the man who looked more pathetic as his hopeful eyes looked up at me.“I have no need to fight you, Darius, because there's nothing to fight with you about."I saw his expression morph into a frown and anger light up in his eyes in response, but I wasn't done.“Isabella is not a bargaining chip, nor an object to fight over or own. I doubt that you will understand that as you are now, but it's the truth. Scum like you deserve a terrible fate, and though I'm glad that Isabella is by my side now, I wished she didn't have to face someone like yo

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   The challenge.

    Isabella.A chill went through me at the news. Looking at the rest of them filled with shock and plenty of questions, there was nothing we could do but wonder.How did they figure it out already? Was this part of their plan from the start? I saw a mix of emotions, none of them positive on everyone's face. It was only a light squeeze that made me turn to him.Leo's startlingly blue eyes couldn't cool down my tension, but it eased it a bit.And for a moment, knowing everything else, I only let one thought reverberate through my mind.Everything will be alright.…..Throughout the next few days, we had mobilized everybody possible.They had announced to the pack and the council of elders everything that had taken place, never leaving a single detail out. The pack was in an uproar, yet in a discussion of our allies, they felt mixed emotions.I looked around at the people around me. People who had once judged me in favor of the person who was now the biggest threat to the pack.When I sp

    Isabella.Together we left for the Alpha's quarters, only to see my parents.Surprise filled me as they also stood up.“What are you two doing here?” My mother demanded, eyeing both of us.“Please," Isabella pleaded.I stayed as she explained every word that she heard in the forest, and I could see every single one of their faces turned grave.“Isabella, are you sure that that was everything you heard?"I wanted to nod, but held back. There was still one thing I was holding back.“When they spoke, Lucy said that he needed her. Not just because of the rogues, but…”I knew that this was sure to hurt, no matter how much I steeled myself to say it was Leo's light squeeze that made me shut my eyes and finally let go.“Because she knew the truth behind his father's death."A shattering sound.“Melissa!”I whipped my head in surprise as I saw that Darius's mother was suddenly laying on the floor unconscious. The implications of my words were clear to everyone.I could only keep still, watch

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Discovering the truth.

    Leo.The moment she had frozen, I already sensed something was wrong.Two people, whom from the look on her face, she recognized were speaking.Closing my eyes, I heightened my senses to hear what they were saying.The first voice was a rough one that undoubtedly belonged to a man whilst the other was a woman.“You said that it'll work, but they haven't made any moves since.” Said the male one.“I mobilized all these rogues and I promised them domination. Do you think that it was easy?”Rogues? The mention of them.“Or better yet, do you think calming them down was? After they'd lost two people to your damned pack, you should be lucky that they haven't turned on you."“Shut the hell up.” The male voice spat out.“You can't get rid of me. Not when I'm the only one who knows the real secret behind your father's death. Not while you need me to appease the rogues while you mess up and no nothing. Not while I look like your dear–” The woman spat out.“–Shut up!” The words were so loud I wa

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Our home.

    Isabella.The next morning was far from normal. The only way it could have been described was cold.Neither of my parents were speaking to me, not even as I prepared breakfast earlier in the morning as an appeasement. They avoided my gaze as much as they could, never speaking a word.It hurt, the silent waves of disappointment that ebbed out of them. I braced through it however.Even little Treasure had noticed it.“Where's daddy?” He whispered to me. I noticed that my parents had stopped eating, either hearing or rightly assuming Treasure words.I attempted to smile at him. “He's not here, but we can visit him if you'd like,” I spoke invitingly.Before Treasure could say a word, I heard my mother's voice for the first time that morning.“Treasure dear, why don't you follow us to the pack gardens? There are plenty of beautiful animals there.”I stiffened at her passive aggressive nature. Yet when I looked at Treasure's imploring eyes which silently asked me for what to do, I gave a sl

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Welcome to the pack.

    Leo.The pain Isabella bore on her face made me want to hold her, yet those doubts and fears I thought I had rid myself of stopped me short, leaving me helpless and hollow.The night was silent and cold. Peaceful. It was a complete contrast to the violence that had occurred in what should have been less than 20 minutes ago.The pain from the hands that choked me still ached every time I swallowed, yet I kept silent.I almost flinched when I felt the brush of a hand, only to relax as there was only one person who could do that. I let her wrap her hand around mine, sighing at the guilty pleasure of her touch.When I turned to look at her again, all the warmth I gained drained away.Her eyes glistened with tears even as she stared stonily at the distance. She was devastated. From her parents' reaction to the way it all came crashing down.I vaguely realized that she was trying to do that. Comfort me. In turn, I held her closer, hoping that she gained a bit of warmth as well.When Connor

    Isabella.My blood ran cold, yet I kept a smile as I turned to Treasure.“Treasure, I think it's time you went to bed," I said.He looked at me for a moment before nodding.“Okay, mommy. Goodnight.” He turned to Leo and oblivious to the tension in the air, told Leo. “Goodnight, daddy.” I heard the slight suck of breath from one of my parents, but I focused solely on my son, nudging him forward.“Go on then," I said, as he yawned before moving up the stairs.I watched him carefully until I was sure that he was out of sight and earshot. The sound of his guest room door shutting made me let out a breath of relief.I shouldn't have let my guard down.It happened instantly. One minute, we were all sitting on the table and in a flash, a person pinned Leo to the wall.“Dad!” I called out, panic filling me as I stood up, speeding across the room.My father was on his full feet, his hands wrapped around Leo's neck. Goddess! He was choking him!Leo remained still. Whether he was still in shock
