Isabella.

It was after the pack dinner formally closed that Connor finally showed his tightly concealed anger.

I startled at his sudden punch on the wall. Looking back at our parents who were silently discussing with each other a distance away, I relaxed once I found that they hadn't noticed Connor's actions.

But they were bothered, especially from the disturbing presence of Darius and his 'mate'. And from solely looking at the way my mother's eyes furrowed and the way Darius's mother seemed to curl in on herself, I had an idea of what exactly they were talking about.

The people in question had left, barely leaving a trace of their presence immediately after they left. Relief filled me once I didn't see any of them. Though with the presence of those around me, there were little chances of Darius cornering me again, I still kept myself on alert.

But that was not the matter now. Taking a step toward him, I leaned onto him, tentatively speaking. “Connor?”

When he snapped at me, I saw it

    Isabella.Now Connor was trying to shield me.I shook my head at him. “Remember what you said, Connor?" I whispered toward him.He relaxed, letting me walk forward.With every step I took, I saw how some of the pack members parted the way, never losing their gaze. It wasn't one of respect, but given to an anomaly, a stranger.In spite of my bravery, I pulled Treasure close to me in order to shield him, cautious of the eyes that grazed him. They could say anything they wanted to me, but I wouldn't let them slander him.I could tell that my son was evidently confused by the change in action. He was far too perceptive at times.Connor still walked beside me, but fell a little behind, ready for whatever scrutiny. I didn't dare look behind to see either of our parents. Six years had passed since then, and I wasn't going to let anyone shield me.Perhaps I was still shaken inside, because I was still talking in my head, reminding myself that I could continuously do so.“Please wait."

    Leo.The call came unexpectedly. Whilst I was in the midst of brainstorming no less.From the sleepless nights and the remainder of the stakes in my hands, I was no doubt more and more irritable than before.I had cut off contact from most people, only talking to Damian once in a while mostly with regards to the project. There was a one track mind.So the moment I saw the call, I was ready to shut it off as quickly as I could. But when I saw her name, I stopped instantly.I brought the phone to the speaker, pulling it closer to me. Perhaps if I closed my eyes, I could pretend that she was here.“Hello, Isabella."There was a slight crave, interrupting my haze, but it was all worth it when her voice came through the phone.“Leo.” Her voice was breathy in a way I knew wasn't due to the quality of the call itself. Currents flowed through me just at a single word. It was honestly a wonder how I had been able to survive without her for so long. Her breathiness sounded like she had been do

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Handling the Alpha title to Connor?

    Isabella.I sighed as I plopped onto the desk.Two more days had gone by, and most of the work had been dealt with.But I couldn't lie to myself, the gamma duties had worn me down.Not to mention the other thing.I straightened at the thought of it, curling my hands into fists.Lucy and Darius.It couldn't be a coincidence that a rogue was here and there were rogue attacks. Though I barely knew her personally, from all that Sierra had told me of her and from the false saccharine meeting, I knew for sure that she was not what anyone expected and neither was she someone to be trusted.However, whilst Sierra's opinion of her was low, she couldn't pin her as someone with that much charisma. When I had asked her whether there was a chance that Lucy was linked to the rogue attacks, her answer was uncertain.“I doubt she's the kind of person that can mobilize that manpower." She said.“What I knew about her was her trickery, but almost seven years have passed, and I'm not sure how true that

    Isabella.I flinched in response.But…Now?“Wh-What made you two think about it now?” I asked, looking interchangeably at them.They looked toward each other. It was the Luna that spoke.“During this time, what this pack needs most is stability. We had hoped to transfer it to him sooner, until the rogue attacks started.But the more we think about it, we can't leave him to shoulder so many things as he is doing now. We aren't as strong as we used to be, and with these rogue attacks, we aren't blind to how the perception of us is starting to dwindle. If it goes further, our pack would be further shattered."“That's why." I turned to the Alpha who spoke now. “We want him to become the Alpha now. We can take care of the other duties on his behalf while he works solely as the Alpha. The Pack's stability may return after.”It was a good theory, one that was probably workable. But…“No," I said, shaking my head, looking at them.It was a risk, one that could mean the thriving or the end o

    Isabella.They stood stunned as they all looked at me. Every stare was prickling amidst the silence and I couldn't help but shuffle under the scrutiny.“Isabella?" I turned to look at my mother, whose expression held unbridled shock. “What do you mean?"My gaze flew to the floor. Guilt swelled up in me like bitter heat. I should have told them a long time ago, but then again, I was planning to tell them. Unfortunately, things didn't work out as planned.But it was better late than never. That was the saying, wasn't it? Sucking in my breath, I looked back up to face them.I knew what I was about to say was probably life changing, upending everything they knew about mates and mate bonds. “I have a mate.”Silence reigned for seconds, each one that passed lengthening the heavy tension that surrounded the room.I counted every single one. When it had reached the tenth, it was as though everything disappeared.A cacophony of noises arose from every end, and throughout the mingling of the

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   An acceptance.

    Isabella.I stepped out to meet the orange glow of the sun. Goddess, it was already evening?That was enough to remind me about the length in which we spoke.I looked around. Since it was evening, it seemed like the number of pack members outside had dwindled. To my further relief, however, I found that the ones present hadn't stared at me with that same disgusted look. They simply nodded before passing me.Hope filled me. If that was the case, then it meant that I could go home on my own this time.I moved the familiar route to my home, savoring the fresh evening air. Though packs were different, the refreshing spring-like air that was common with them was still enough to bring a smile to my face.Suddenly my phone rang, making me stop in my tracks. Could it be?I quickly extracted it, only for disappointment to sink in as I found that it wasn't Leo, but Connor.My disappointment gave way to confusion. Connor was still in the pack and could simply meet me. Why then, was he calling?I

  • Mated to the Rogue Alpha   Surprise!

    Isabella.The next day began as normal. Albeit alone, I went all the way to my father's office after wishing my parents and son goodbye. I had found myself discussing with Ethan on the matters of yesterday along with preemptive steps.Although working in the practical sense was still a question.I went through the information shared through the meeting I had with the Alpha, Luna, and my parents.From all they had told me, the timeline matched. Lucy had come into the pack as a lone wolf, seeking shelter. The pack had taken pity on her, with the council of elders finally declaring her an official pack member. Shortly after, my father had begun to notice Darius and her together more and more. Even worse was that unlike the last time I came, the pack's perception of Darius had slowly lessened as more of his bad behavior came into light. It was even more evident now.Therefore after about three months after new year's - likely before Sierra's wedding in my timeline. Under the rule of the c

    Leo.Everything was worth it now, as I stayed in this strange forest, holding the love of my life in my arms.I shut my eyes as I remembered what led up to that moment, what even made it possible.Flashback.I stepped into the restaurant, suitcase at the ready. There was no other thing to do but wait.True to time, Mr. Donovan came in - or the correct term would be 'wheeled in' - with his bodyguards all surrounding him. His face nor appearance hadn't changed within the last several days, yet a smug smile rested on his face.“You came early today. Did you need time to savor the last taste of freedom you had?”I said both, keeping my face expressionless as I looked straight at him, never wavering.“I have a celebratory dinner to enjoy, so let's get this over with, shall we?” He looked at me with an expression I could easily identify as mocking.Still I remained silent, pity filling me as I looked at him. He wasn't going to know what hit him.As I signaled behind me, Gino moved closer, b

  • 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
