Isabella.

“What?” I stuttered out.

That didn't make any sense. None of it did.

“Sierra's missing.” He said, affirming the thought I believed impossible. “She hadn't been home for the past 2 days now.”

That wasn't possible. Two days? She was here just yesterday. How could…?

That was when I remembered the day before. In the dining rooms where everyone else ate.

She wasn't there.

I thought she had retired early or stayed in.

Had I made excuses in my melancholia, not even bothering to check on her?

What had happened to me?

What had happened to her?

It was as though the winter was back with the way cold washed over me.

No, I was sure. She would've been with Damian if anything.

I let out a breath as I called her phone number, only to hear it was switched off.

Why was her phone switched off? Worry began filling me as my thoughts rushed. Suddenly, the thought hit me.

Damian was gone for two days. I looked at my contacts searching for Damian's contact.

    Isabella.The drive back to the pack was silent, with tension which would be difficult to cut through looming over all of us.Right now the fragile silence and peace was all I could grapple onto to allay the anxiety that rose by the minute. I stayed in the back of the car, watching the two silence peope in the front seats. All the while, a single question echoed in my mind.What had I done?Interfering with any relationship was not in any of my goals. And now, because of my actions, I had wounded not one but two relationship lines.Damian. My empathy reached out for him at the last sight I had, bloodied and bruised, thanks to Leo. I hoped he healed. He was going to hate me. It didn't take a genius to put the pieces together. By now, he must have been aware of my part in this. I would have lost a friend, and most likely my job as well.By the time we passed the gates, the sunset was looming down, turning into the night. My heart palpitated faster as we neared the house, stopping righ

    I took several steps back as she stood up.“Sierra-”“Stop!” She roared. My heart skipped a beat at her outburst.“I'm sorry," I tried to say, but she cut me off right after.“Sorry, for what? For ruining my life? For destroying the relationship I held so long with Damian? For destroying the trust my brother had in me? For making me lose trust in you?”I breathed out harshly. “I didn't mean to tell him. When he said you were missing, I thought of everything. I tried contacting you, contacting Damian. I began to panic and wonder if you were safe. It all just came–"“—Came out? You should have picked up the dots. Why would you think I went missing out of nowhere?”“Because you never talked to me! All the times we were having conversations, you were spaced out or distracted. Even if I asked, would you have answered?” I spat out, unable to hold it anymore.“You know, I finally get it."Get what? I wondered, taking a step back. The look on her face alone was enough to frighten me.“Back th

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Spoken secrets.

    Isabella.Agathe came to my room that night, a sleeping Treasure in her arms along with another girl holding a tray of food behind her.I let her in, hoping that she didn't notice the sight of my swollen eyes as she switched on the lights and directed the girl. I should have known that was a lost cause as her face softened as the other girl left the room quietly.“It seems there was a big fuss yesterday.” She said, putting Treasure into his bed carefully.Unable to trust my voice, I nodded silently, not even bothering to look away anymore. She had seen it already. Arms now free, she came forward until she stood in front of me.“Tell me what happened, dear.”Those words were a trigger, bringing the tears I thought had all been expended to well up again. As they fell, I was covered in her embrace and comforting smell, her murmurs soothing me.Once my surge of tears stopped, I told her everything. From Sierra's secretive behavior to Leo's distance. I told her about my knowledge of her an

    Isabella.Stumbling in surprise, I righted myself, holding onto Treasure who wriggled from my grip. Once the surprise wore off, I spied down the stairs to see if anyone else was coming up?“No one's coming. They're still in the dining room, eating.” She told me. “Isn't it disrespectful to look away from someone who's talking to you?” She asked slyly.I looked straight at her.“What do you want?” I asked straightforwardly.“Well, I wanted to know if what I saw this afternoon was my imagination.”I furrowed my brows, yet inside my heart beat fast. “This afternoon? I don't know what you're talking about.”“Oh, I know more than you think.” she said, taking a step towards me. “I pity you, you know.”“Her words made me flinch in shock. “What?”“You know what he called you? A guest.” I flinched as she laughed. “You're literally the mother of his child, and yet he ignores you. How pathetic!”Cold washed over me at her words. How could she know that?“He's not… Leo isn't…” I shook my head.“O

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   The party.

    IsabellaHis words echoed continuously in my mind long after I had left the building. The memory of everything else was a blur and if tears fell down my cheeks, I couldn't remember.Even stepping into the school, the chill that coursed my body even through the summer took me through all my classes.By the time classes ended, I arrived home as numb as I began.I stopped in my tracks when I entered the living room. For the first time since the argument, she was sitting in the living room. Even more, she was with Treasure, cooing as she carried him. She noticed me only a few seconds after, freezing as though she was a picture as her gaze met mine. Seconds after, she broke out of our 'stare off', looking interchangeably at Treasure and I.“Agathe left me with him. She said she was tired.” She said, answering the question which came first in my mind at the sight. After a few moments of looking, she turned fully, as though offering him back to me. “I should–” I shook my head. “No. No, it'

    Isabella.Flashback.1 day ago.With only a day to the party, I still felt as hopeless as ever. The loneliness was overwhelming, especially after Leo and Sierra's words.I had already taken a break from school in preparation for the party. Even though it was cowardly, I hadn't met Damian personally, instead sending it through someone else. It was signed nonetheless, and all I could do was sigh in relief.My relief soon turned to anger at the tense feeling around the home. The place was decorated, with me spying Sierra all around before I retired to my room. All I could do was play with my son, and pray to the moon goddess that her schemes were uncovered.At that moment, a knock came onto my door making me scrunch my brows. Agathe was busy in the kitchen afterall. I stood up, cautiously saying, “Come in,” as I anticipated who was meeting me.The door opened to reveal that it was none other than Emilia. Soon after, she strutted in and shut the door behind her, facing me with a mocking

    Isabella. I played the recording, grabbing the attention of not just them, but the other pack members present.I let them hear her mocking me, calling Agathe a maid. I let them hear how she spoke of her plans and taunting and boasting of my helplessness through it all.I tapped the recording to stop right before she said the rest, bringing the room into silence. Looking around, the silence and stunned gazes were enough to tell me the impact of what I had done.I stared back at Emilia, the fear and shock on her face enough to vilify me.Murmurs began, whilst I dropped the microphone.“Everyone!” Leo's voice rang loud and true around the room, bringing everyone to a standstill. In an instant, the murmurs died down to nothingness. I faced him, only to have found no particular expression on his face.“The party is over. Excuse us.” He finally said.In a matter of moments, the house was empty, leaving the rest of us there.Emilia looked around frantically, even as no words were said.“It

    Isabella.How had people felt, to be drowning under icy waters? How was it to feel the icy ground, once stable under their feet suddenly cave in, breaking faster than half a breath taken? How had it felt for them to suddenly fall and be enveloped by what were surely pricks of chills, so cold it felt hot, and all painful all the same?How had it felt to try and traverse the dark waters, even as its presence around them hurt?I would have never wished such an experience on anyone else. Not when I was feeling something akin to it at the moment.My body shook against the air, deathly cold even though it was spring. I was drowning, drowning against their stares and the fear and knowing that they knew the secret I had tried to keep for so long.The ground hadn't caved under me, and I feared that was more a curse than blessing.Under the oppressing silence, I couldn't hold back my tears any longer. They slipped silently down my cheeks, with only the oppressing silence and gazes of all thre

  • 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
