***Isabel***

After dinner, I help Steph to clear the plates and wash the dishes to her surprise. She hands me more sweet pancakes and I eat them happily before going to meet Jared.

I'm still wary of him even though I'm grateful that he saved my life. I remember vividly that he avoided my question when I asked him why he saved my life. I know that he is hiding something from me.

The blood pack is not what I had imagined it to be. I expected it to be scary and bloody with mean wolves but instead it's the opposite. The people here are friendly. The pack is flourishing and everyone is happy.

I like Steph, she's very lovable and easy to relate with. I haven't spoken much to David and his mate, Serafina but I can tell that they are cool with me here. But elder Lee does not look like he is pleased to have me, I'm not bothered anyways. I received far more worse treatments when I was in Moon pack.

Jared is in the living room, reading a newspaper when I come in.

    I spend the rest of the day in my room, reading one of the most interesting romance book I've ever seen. A light knock comes on the door, Jared opens the door and peeps in."Do you mind joining us downstairs? We're playing a game." He says and I nod.I get up immediately and follow him behind, I admire his features from behind - the desires of my heat though - and even take note of the colour of his hair - light brown and curly.His scent is imposing on me, I might come clean about my lustful desires when my heat comes. But how will he view me - that is one question I've feared to ask to myself. What if he rejects my approach and misunderstand me. What if he kicks me out or worse, takes me back to Moon pack.I decide to keep myself in check, no matter how strong the desires might come off. I will be strong on my own and resist his charms."Earth to Isabel, we're here." He whispers to me.I snap out of my reverie and face reality. David and Serafina are waiting for us with a bottle in

    Devastation is a feeling that comes only after you've tasted happiness for a bit. When it washes over you, you don't know how else to feel. You might want to feel empty or sad or just neutrally not in the mood to do anything else.But at least I've been given a task to do and that is to avoid Jared and Theda until their marriage arrangements are done with.As I come down to the kitchen, I meet Stephanie and Cardin with a couple of others doing their morning routine. I decide to help Stephanie with the baking since every other routine is taken."You don't look good." Stephanie says to me."I'm fine." I lie but she doesn't seem to be convinced."I know that something is wrong with you when I see it. Is it between you and Jared?"I sigh. I'm not escaping this conversation or am I?"We don't have any issues but I'm mad at him. Theda is coming here any time soon and he didn't care to inform me?"Stephanie sighs sadly. " How do you feel about it?""I feel pained. He should have warned me in

    **Jared**"There's another attack at one of the local villages. I think the rogues are running out of supplies and are now stealing from the local villages." David reports.I sigh and watch the villagers as they clean up the mess that Harald and his gang have done."It's a good thing that no one was killed. Although a few wolves that tried to fight back were injured severely and currently undergoing treatment. Doctor Jordan is on his way to help them out." David adds."It's about time we put Harald and his gang in their place. They need to be taught a lesson that will stop them for doing their dirty deeds." I say with determination."I agree with you, alpha. Their atrocities have gotten out of hand and will be dealt with accordingly." David says.The head chief walks up to us with his staff."The people want to hear your voice. At this moment of brokenness, your voice of assurance is what we need to keep ourselves from stumbling and falling." He says.I step down from the car, a few w

    The nurses and Doctor Jordan rush towards us, they take Isabel from my arms and carry her to her room. Father stops me from following them upstairs."I need to speak with you, Jared. Privately."We exit outside to discuss whatever matters that are trivial to him." What in the name of the Moon goddess are you doing with that girl?" Father spits."I just saved her life… again, if I leave her out there to die then that means I'm not a good alpha." I remind him of his own words."This is out of the context of trying to prove whether you are the good alpha or not. This is clearly getting out of hands, you are obviously attached to that weak she wolf.""Yes, I'm attached to her because she is my mate. Storman confirmed it earlier in the words when I found her wounded and dying. She's my mate, I'll have to be there for her no matter what the risks and circumstances are. She's mine now."Father grunts. "She's yours but not officially. You know that everyone else in the pack is aware of your

    I take a hot shower after Isabel sleeps off. Before leaving her room, I clean her up and dress her in a thick pajamas to cover her from the cold weather. Coming downstairs, I meet Theda at the dining table already. The food is being served by the omegas and Theda does nothing but snap at each one that comes to the table.I exchange glances with Myra, who is standing at the corner with another young man with glasses on his face. David comes down for dinner without Serafina."Where is Serafina?" I ask him knowingly, I already know that she is mad at me for attacking her at the training ground but I had no choice. I was desperate for answers about Isabel."You know where she is. She refused to come down for dinner when I asked her to." David shrugs.Elder Lee comes out from the kitchen with Stephanie to join us for dinner."Hey! How dare you try to sit with the alpha at the dining table. Don't you know that servants like you should be eating in the kitchen and it should be the remnant

    **Isabel**I watch from the window when Jared and Theda leaves together. I guess he doesn't care much about me after all, only interested in the things that will promote his pack. I am not in the list of important things to care for.Nevertheless, I will not be saddened by such occurrence. I will be strong and prove my worth to everyone. But then again, every time I try to be strong, something holds me back.Shrugging off the thoughts off my mind, I come downstairs to eat breakfast since the entire pack house is now quieter.To my surprise, I see Myra and Cardin in the kitchen. They're chatting happily while preparing a home cooked meal."Myra! You came here." "Isabel!"We embrace each other warmly. "Isabel," she calls again. " I've missed you so much, how have you been coping with this place? Tell me everything about it." I shrug. "Nothing much. Only jumping from one trouble to another, what about you and your mate?""We've are fine, and glowing too.""What about the pack? And Wi

    My eyes are swollen when I wake up in the morning. A lot of thinking, a lot of crying has made me look a lot like a disheveled she wolf who went astray. The past few days with Theda has been hell.The worst part of everything is that Jared is keeping quiet about it. I haven't crossed paths with him ever since the night of the kitchen encounter. But Theda has been going about the pack house and oppressing me like the devil she is.I rub off the sleep from my eyes and prepare myself for the day's work. In order to avoid Theda's crazy delusions from affecting my life in the hard manner, I have made up my mind to join the omegas in their morning routine work. Much to her delight.After taking my bath and dressing up in a simple flowery gown, I open my door and shockingly find Jared standing in front of it. His hands are hanging in the air - it's obvious that he is about to knock or contemplate on it."Hi." I say awkwardly."Hello, Isabel." He responds.I'm not going to waste his time any

    **Jared**Okay, I admit it. I messed up - big time.I should probably apologize to Isabel for acting irrational. And for wolfing out on her, I didn’t even know when Storman took over.Nevertheless, I shouldn’t have let him take control of me. I shouldn’t have allowed him to wolf out on her, and to suppress her with his alpha aura.All this are as a result of our unprecedented misunderstanding between each other. Things had escalated to calamity at the heat of the moment and putting Isabel’s life at risk is not proper.“Wolfing out on your mate is the worst thing to ever do. If I ever wolf out on Serafina, she’ll end our relationship immediately.” David says to me.“Wolfing our on Isabel wasn’t intentional. Storman took me by surprise when he took control without my consent.” I reply him.“Even at that, you have to apologize to her. If you leave your issues unsettled and your matter in a complicated situation, Isabel might as well as leave you. Think about it.”“ Of course, I am suppose

    THREE MONTHS LATER: EPILOGUE “Wakey wakey, mommy!” Some scream right through my ears. I stir in my bed and groan. “Leave me be, Somi. I'm not done sleeping.” “But it's your wedding, mom. Do you prefer to sleep throughout your wedding day?”I sit up immediately I hear that, I have forgotten that today is my wedding day. I scramble off my bed and tie my robe, then I head down to the kitchen with Somi giggling beside me.“Isabel honey, you look disoriented this morning.” Stephanie gasps and I shrug.“Somi caused it, what did I miss?” “The wedding gown designer, the makeup artist, and the hair stylist,” Myra replies.“This will be the worst wedding ever,” Jayne says.“Thanks, Jayne.” I roll my eyes and go to sit on the counter.“This kitchen looks yummy,” Somi says and Stephanie hands her some baked bread.“We made them especially for your mom, now Isabel, go back to your room and freshen up.

    Sorana.I never imagined that you will call for me again because you shut me out for a long. She replies.Her voice sounds like she has been expecting me to talk with her since I know that this is what she wants. That must be the reason why she reached out to Somi instead and told her the truth about everything.I couldn’t hold it back after I heard from my daughter that you’ve been speaking to her. I say.Trust me, Isabel. It’s not some garbage shit that I’ve been feeding her, it’s the truth about herself and she has grown to accept it.But there’s nothing I can do about it now.

    “Isabel, are you okay? You look drained.” Alec says to me.“Today was stressful I guess.” I reply.He offers me a cup of water and I gulp it down immediately. He sits opposite me in the living room and looks at me intently.“What?” I snap at him.“Something must have happened today, Isabel. You look flushed and compliments to the man that dropped you off. I thought you mentioned something about trekking home?” “Yeah I did but Jared shows up out of the blue and now I’ll have to find a way to make him regain his memories so that we could go back home with Somi.” I explain to him.Alec’s mouth drops open as he looks at me in shock, I’m not sure whether he’s mad or just surprised at what I just said. “Say something, Alec.” I urge him.His silence is actually disturbing to me. I want to know what his opinions are on this issue.“I don’t know what to say.

Only she knows what she must have done to him to make him forget me and he can’t even remember me. “So did the partnership go well?” Freya asks.“Yes, we even agreed to organize an auction event which I’m sure that you’ll be in attendance.” Jane smirks and Freya smiles.“We’ll be looking forward to seeing you there especially your husband.” Jane says and Freya eyes her peculiarly.“Why are you so much concerned about my husband??” Smart woman - she must have presumed where this topic might be leading to. Jane and I exchange glances and I nod at her to continue. We can’t go back or fumble when we’ve reached this far to even be engaged in a conversation with Freya.“You see, Freya.
