Isobel

As the days passed, Thea appeared to have returned to her usual self, and I found myself constantly by her side. It seemed like I didn't have a moment to spare for Lorrie amidst all the time I was spending with Thea. Yet, the weight of our strained relationship lingered in my mind like a heavy cloud.

One day, Thea caught onto my distant demeanor and gently prodded me about it.

"Is everything alright, cousin?" she asked, her eyes full of concern.

I hesitated, unsure of how to express the turmoil swirling inside me. But Thea seemed to sense the source of my unease. "Is this about Lorrie?"

I couldn't help but nod, feeling a mixture of guilt and frustration knotting in my chest. Before I could utter a word, Thea reached out, her hand resting gently on mine. "You should talk to her, Isobel. I'm sure Lorrie only acted the way she did because she cares about you deeply.”

Her words struck a chord within me, and I couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt for neglecting Lorrie. Thea's enco

    IsobelMy heart weighed heavily with the fallout between Lorrie and me. Despite the ache in my chest, my pride stood like a barrier, refusing to let me reach out first. But beneath that layer of stubbornness, a tiny voice whispered, urging me to mend what was broken.I felt like a robot programmed to carry out tasks without any emotion. Life without my best friends was like life without color, and I couldn’t help but feel so alone and vulnerable."Is everything okay, Isobel?"Lost in my thoughts, I failed to notice Mrs. Potts. I looked up, my eyes likely revealing my struggle to keep it together. I managed a small smile, but tears threatened to spill over. Mrs. Potts seemed to understand without me saying a word."Is it about Lorrie and Scott? I noticed that they are not coming here," she asked softly, indicating her awareness of the misunderstanding.I nodded, unable to find the right words. Mrs. Potts pulled up a chair beside me and gave me a comforting hug."It's okay, dear," she s

    RyleSeeing Isobel, my heart skipped a beat. It's always a bright spot in my day when I see her. I waved eagerly, a smile spreading across my face as I caught her attention. She smiled back, but something seemed off. I chose to ignore it at first, closing the distance between us.But as I approached, I couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong. Her smile didn't reach her eyes, which looked dull and sad. Instantly, concern washed over me."Are you alright?" I asked, hoping my voice conveyed my worry.She nodded, but her gaze drifted away from mine. I couldn't ignore it. Something wasn't adding up.I shifted, trying to catch her eyes again. "Is there anything wrong?"Her smile returned, but it was feeble, unconvincing. "No... nothing... everything's alright," she replied, but her eyes told a different story. I knew she was trying to brush it off, but I couldn't just let it go.Eyes don't lie, and neither do my instincts. I sighed, feeling a pang of sadness that she didn't fee

    IsobelAs Ryle and I watched the sunset together, something changed inside me. I couldn't stop stealing glances at him. His happiness was contagious, evident in the big smile on his face.As the orange colors of the sunset painted the sky, casting a warm glow over Ryle's face, I couldn't help but be fascinated by him.Despite my previous feelings of not liking Ryle and being annoyed with him, I couldn't deny the attraction I felt towards him at that moment, under the magic of the beautiful sky."Do you like it?" he asked, breaking the silence between us.I nodded, a real smile appearing on my face as I enjoyed the beauty of the sunset. "I love sunsets," I replied softly.The colors of the sky reflected on Ryle's face, making him look even more mesmerizing. I felt a warmth in my chest as I looked at him, his eyes fixed on the amazing view before us. At that moment, with a smile on his lips, I found myself admiring Ryle's beauty in a way I hadn't before."It's beautiful," I murmured, un

    Isobel The next morning, my mind was consumed by distractions. The memories of the time Ryle and I shared lingered persistently in my thoughts, leaving me oblivious to Thea's attempts to engage me in conversation."Hello there? World to Isobel? Are you there?" Thea's voice jolted me out of my reverie, her tiny hands waving in front of me.I blinked in surprise, finally registering her presence. "Oh, sorry about that. I guess I zoned out for a moment."Thea's concerned expression didn't waver. "Are you alright? You seem really distracted. What's on your mind?"I hesitated, not wanting to burden her with my thoughts about Ryle, but Thea wasn't one to be easily fooled."We may not be close growing up but in our short time together, I was able to recognize that look," she insisted gently. "Tell me, what's bothering you?"With a resigned sigh, I decided to confide in her. "It's about last night...""Ah, spill it!" Thea's eyes lit up with curiosity as she leaned in, eager to hear every det

    IsobelLucy waved off the situation with a forced laugh, then turned to Ryle with a skeptical expression. "Come on, Ryle, there's no time for jokes."As murmurs continued to ripple through the crowd, the Blondies behind Lucy exchanged incredulous glances."What about Kendra Kermiss? Aren't you two dating?" Lucy pressed, her skepticism evident.Hearing this, I found myself wondering if there was something between Ryle and Kendra. Ryle promptly dismissed the idea."That's not true. Kendra and I are just good friends. We've never been romantically involved."The allure of gossip drew more students into the circle, bombarding Ryle with questions about our relationship."Is it true, Ryle?""Are you and Isobel Reeve dating now?""Since when have you been together?""What attracted you to her? Who confessed their feelings first?"The crowd pressed closer, hungry for answers, surrounding Ryle and me. Ryle stood protectively in front of me, trying to calm the crowd and make some space.Feeling

    Isobel The atmosphere in the classroom was tense, with the rest of the class behaving strangely around me. It was evident why – Crisha and some other she-wolves were crying. These were the she-wolves who belonged to Ryle's fans. Naturally, they weren't pleased with what had transpired. In their eyes, I had seemingly stolen their only love. Ryle's confession had stirred up a whirlwind of emotions, but I couldn't find any solace in it.Despite the uneasy atmosphere, I remained seated, feeling the weight of everyone's stares and hushed whispers bearing down on me. The attention was suffocating, and I desperately wished for things to calm down swiftly.Then, I noticed the Blondies looking at me with disdain, and I gulped nervously. I didn't want a repeat of what happened at the cafeteria; losing control over my emotions could get me in trouble at home if my family found out about a fight at school. This would surely burden my Mom and I didn’t want that to happen. To avoid any commotion,

    Isobel “Mind if I join you?” Kendra asked, smiling. I quickly wiped my tears and nodded as Kendra sat beside me, joining in watching the sunset. Her presence caught me off guard, leaving me uncertain how to respond. The fact that the most beautiful girl in Silver-U was sitting next to me in such a vulnerable moment left me speechless. I struggled to initiate a conversation, unsure of how to act around her. Why had Kendra approached me? Was it just a polite gesture? I couldn't shake the feeling of being out of place beside someone so elegant and refined. Unable to resist stealing glances at Kendra, I marveled at her golden hair and fair complexion. She was a vision of beauty, unlike anyone I had ever known. If only she weren't wearing the school uniform, she could easily be mistaken for a mature she-wolf. The thought saddened me, knowing that others likely saw her and Ryle as a perfect match. My sigh didn't go unnoticed by Kendra, who turned to me with concern. “Is everything al

    RyleRyleI went to my classroom, whistling. At last, I confessed my feelings for Isobel in front of everyone. I felt lighter after the confession. My body felt energized, like something heavy had been lifted from my chest when I confessed. Saying everything out loud made me proud of myself. I was satisfied with how the confession turned out.As I went downstairs, the students were staring at me. They were murmuring from behind, but I didn't care. Outside the classroom, my friends were waiting. I found it odd that they were all murmuring and staring at me at the same time."What’s up, boys!" I approached them excitedly, but they didn’t match my energy. They all looked like something depressing had happened."Is the rumor true, Ryle?" one of them asked."What rumors?" I knew what was coming but went along with them."Come on, man. It’s not like you don’t know," another chimed in. "Every step you take, the whole Silver-U is watching you."One of my close friends, Draymond, came up to me

    "So the council members agreed with his delusions, huh?" I inquired, my tone tinged with disappointment.The head advisor nodded solemnly. "I was the only one who disagreed with the matter, Alpha. There's nothing I can do.""I see..." I sighed. My jaw tightened when the news hit my ears. I clenched the glass of scotch tightly before sipping its content in one gulp. The intoxicating liquid burned my throat a little but I didn’t flinch. Because more than the heat that this alcohol was giving me, it was my rage that kept me burning inside. "Letting that kid go would be an utter disgrace to the Vanderberg name. I refuse to tarnish the honor of my father just because of my foolish son."The head advisor offered a word of caution. "But Alpha... Your son appears resolute. It won't be an easy task to dissuade him."I took a sip of my scotch, contemplating the situation. "I know... And I have no one to blame but myself. If only I had taken immediate action against that lowly she-wolf. Perhap

    Isobel Finally, the day of the concert arrived, and I found myself standing in line with my friends, eagerly awaiting our chance to see the Midnight Wolf perform live. Well, everyone except Thea, who seemed rather indifferent. "I don’t know why I agreed to this. I don’t even know that dude," Thea remarked, her skepticism palpable. But Lorrie, always the optimist, reassured her, wrapping her arms around Thea's and whispering, "Don’t you worry. Soon, you’re gonna understand the hype." She then turned to me, grinning mischievously, and whispered, "Sissy, once we're out of this concert, I’m gonna convert this dumb lady into a die-hard fan." I couldn't help but chuckle at her enthusiasm, while Thea looked on curiously, demanding to know what was being said. Lorrie smoothly deflected, "Oh forget about it… Just make sure to enjoy this day cuz' once you’re out of here, a new Thea will be born." Scott and I shared a laugh, while Thea, still puzzled, watched Lorrie lead the way, linking a

    RyleI summoned an emergency pack meeting, and everyone responded promptly. Their deep respect for me as the alpha heir was evident as we all gathered in the council room, each of us curious about the sudden call.Regrettably, my father couldn't be present; important matters demanded his attention elsewhere. Nonetheless, I steeled myself and proceeded with the meeting. The council members, acknowledging my role as the future Alpha, listened closely, likely expecting news they had been anticipating for some time.Inside the council chamber, the weight of their expectant gazes pressed upon me as I took a moment to collect my thoughts. With a deep breath to steady myself, I began, realizing that this moment was no longer just a vision but a reality I had to confront head-on."Good day, everyone," I greeted them, my voice firm. "I understand this meeting caught you by surprise, and for that, I apologize for any inconvenience."A council member from the Treasury reassured me, "You don't ha

    IsobelFinally, things returned to normal. It was just another typical day, but I found myself incredibly thankful for it. My mind and soul yearned for these moments of peace in school—normalcy without worries or commotion, just peaceful studying and enjoying life with friends.“Let’s go grab some lunch with Ryle and Thea,” Lorrie exclaimed, grabbing my arm. Scott walked behind us happily. I shared in their happiness, especially since Thea had finally been welcomed into our group by Ryle and my best friends after a while.As for my bullies, Lucy and the rest of the Blondies, they were kicked out of Silver-U for their actions. They paid dearly for what happened, and even their own packs promised they would be punished accordingly.Without Lucy, Epsilon Elysium was left without a leader. The sorority decided to hold another election for a new leader. In the end, Lorrie unexpectedly won. She was hesitant at first, but eventually, she accepted the privilege.“How’s the new queen of Ep-El?

    Isobel"I'll ask you again, child: Do you want to stay here with me?"It was a hard decision for me, but I knew my answer right away. It seemed like Dad understood what I wanted."Are you sure you want to give up this eternal happiness for a world that has only brought you pain and suffering?" Dad's voice echoed, showing his concern.I looked down, agreeing with Dad's point. The world I was born into was full of difficulties. Mom and I lived with shame because of something driven by love and sacrifice, their forbidden union. At Silver-U, I found some comfort among friends and even a wolf who became dear to me. But when I needed them the most, they all left, leaving me to face my problems alone. Pain and suffering seemed to be the only things that stayed with me in the world where I belonged. Despite my longing to be with Dad, his offer, though appealing, couldn't keep me here, not yet. There were things left unfinished, bonds I cherished. Maybe my idea of heaven was different—to be wi

    IsobelI opened my eyes and found myself lying in the arms of an elder wolf. The old guy was smiling at me, and strangely, I felt comfortable, as though I knew him from a long time ago. Yet, I was certain we'd never met before. I tried to recall if we had crossed paths, but nothing came to mind. Still, being near him felt oddly warm, filling me with love and peace.As the mysterious wolf stood up and walked away, he beckoned for me to follow. My eyes remained fixed on him, drawn to his presence. When he spoke, his voice held a gentle command."Follow me..."And so, I did. Each step felt like a silent agreement with fate. His smile was reassuring as he guided me forward."Come here, look..."I turned my gaze to where he directed, and before us lay a breathtaking field. It was a scene of unparalleled beauty, one that I couldn't fathom existed. The elder wolf looked at me expectantly, asking a question that resonated deep within me."Do you love it?"I nodded eagerly, feeling a rush of e

    IsobelI was left in shock by Kendra’s revelation. Horror coursed through me as I realized the truth. Kendra, whom I had initially seen as a kind angel sent to save me, was something far more sinister. I couldn't fathom that Kendra would stoop to such depths of cruelty. Jealousy, I realized, was a force more terrifying than I had ever imagined. I had always seen Kendra as perfect in everyone's eyes, but now, facing her dark side, I couldn't shake the terror creeping into my heart.Backing away from Kendra, I couldn't tear my eyes away from her as I pleaded, “Why? Why are you doing this to me?”Kendra smirked, her movements deliberate as she closed the distance between us. “Why? You should’ve known the answer, bitch. You took Ryle away from me. I have been with him from the start. You just came out of nowhere and suddenly, Ryle was all into you. You took my world from me.”I watched as Kendra's eyes changed, a chilling indication that she was not joking. I braced myself for what was to

    IsobelI couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Kendra in such a place. She was someone I never expected to encounter here, especially after an entire year of not seeing her around school. But in that moment, as the thugs closed in on me, I was grateful for any form of rescue."I know you. You’re one of Ryle’s friends," Kendra uttered, recognition dawning on her face.Ryle’s friend clicked his tongue and retreated, leaving the thugs confused and annoyed. "What the hell are you doing, kid?" one of them demanded as Ryle’s friend made his escape. Another thug approached Kendra, suggesting, "Maybe he wanted to join the fun."The rest of the thugs cheered, their expressions filled with lust and excitement, but Kendra remained unfazed. "That’s the problem with lower-class wolves," she remarked confidently. "The ones who were completely forgotten by society. Fear has forgotten you."The leader of the thugs didn’t appreciate Kendra's boldness and confronted her. "Who the hell are you?" he demand

    Ryle I panicked. It was me managing the steering wheel, trying to navigate through traffic as fast as I could. Everyone in the car wanted to get to Epsilon Elysium urgently, but for me, it was more than just a destination. Isobel was there, and I needed to save her from the torment caused by that vile she-wolf who framed her. Regret gnawed at me for not listening to her before, for losing trust in her. "Come on Ryle, I know you can go faster than this," Lorrie said, her concern evident in her voice. "Who said we're on top speed already?" I replied, pressing harder on the accelerator. We surged past other cars on the road, my driving becoming almost reckless in my desperation. Meanwhile, Scott's anger was palpable. "I never thought someone was capable of doing this vile thing. She must be punished for everything," he seethed. Thea, still crying in the backseat, chimed in, her voice thick with emotion. "That she-wolf deserves to be expelled from the school. She must be the one the e
