ISABELLA

"Is everything okay?" my mom asked, noticing my reaction as I stared at my phone. "Uh, no...nothing, Mom," I stuttered, trying to brush it off. "Just Ariana telling me some gossip about someone."

She totally bought it - why wouldn't she? There was no reason for her to suspect that the person I was talking to was her own stepson.

I felt a pang of guilt for even thinking of him that way; it was a harsh reminder that our world was indeed very small.

"Shall we get packing?" my mom asked, and before I knew it, we were done. She had packed enough for an eternity, despite insisting it was just a weekend getaway. "You never know what you might need," she always said, but I couldn't help but tease her about preparing for a permanent relocation.

As the chauffeur swung open the door, I stepped out onto the driveway and was immediately struck by the grandeur of the building before me. The mansion loomed above, its towering spires and turrets reaching toward the sky like giant's fists.

    ISABELLA "What?!" I exclaimed, my cheeks flushing with a mix of surprise and embarrassment as I met his teasing gaze.He took a step closer, his face bending down towards mine, his warm breath caressing my skin. "You heard me right, mi Tesoro," he whispered, his voice low and husky. For a fleeting moment, I found myself lost in the depths of his perfect brown eyes, my heart skipping a beat.The memory of that night lingered, and for a moment, I wished we could relive it. But I quickly pushed the thought aside. "How many times have I warned you not to call me that?" I tried to sound stern as I shifted back, creating some distance between us. The movement helped to clear my head, which had been clouded by the intoxicating scent of his cologne that had filled my nostrils."You know I can't stop," he teased, his eyes sparkling with amusement as he took another step closer.

    ISABELLA The silence in the house was deafening, and I couldn't help but wonder where everyone was.I glanced around cautiously, ensuring I wasn't being followed, before making my way stealthily to the room I suspected belonged to Sam.Honestly, finding my way around this massive house was a total pain. It was like, a never-ending maze, and I was getting super frustrated trying to locate Sam's room.My instincts screamed that this was Sam's room. The door stood out - it was the largest I'd seen so far, and there was something enigmatic about it. I couldn't explain why, but everything about it felt off, and I was convinced that this was the room I was searching for.Just as I was about to enter, my phone's shrill ringtone pierced the air, freezing me in my tracks. I muttered a curse under my breath as I glanced at the screen to see who was calling at such an inconvenient time.The sight of Ariana's name on my screen slightly cleared the fog from my mind. I hesitated for a moment, wond

    ISABELLA My heart sank as I turned to face Zade, his gaze piercing through me. I felt a wave of mortification wash over me, and I wished the earth would swallow me whole to escape his intense stare.He stood there, looking like he'd just stepped out of a shower, water droplets cascading down his chiselled chest from his damp hair.I couldn't help but feel like I was trapped in a rom-com, with Zade as the ridiculously handsome leading man. The kind of guy who makes your heart skip a beat just by being in the same room.His face was etched with annoyance, and I scrambled to come up with a plan to defuse the situation, desperately searching for an escape route from this awkward confrontation.I stuttered out an apology, feeling like a total jerk. "I’m sorry, I was actually looking for you to, uh, ask for a favour." Yeah, I was a horrible liar, and as soon as the words left my mouth, I knew I sounded super sketchy. But weirdly, I felt like he was actually buying it, which only made me f

    ISABELLA As I quickly moved away from Zade, a wave of embarrassment washed over me. I couldn't help but hope that my mom hadn't witnessed the exchange, or worse, that she wasn't jumping to any conclusions. Panic began to set in as I thought about how she'd react - she'd be furious, and I'd have to apologize profusely. My mind was racing with different scenarios, but before I could process any of it, my mom's next words cut through my thoughts."Oh, Bella and Zade, it seems like you guys are getting along quite well," she said, a hint of a smile playing on her lips. I felt a wave of relief wash over me as I realized I must have misread the situation earlier, and I released a breath I didn't even know I was holding. Zade didn't seem fazed by the situation before my mom spoke . I wondered if he thought it was normal to have a romantic relationship with his step-sister. Did he not consider the potential consequences or the unconventional nature of their relationship? Or was he simply c

    ISABELLA Stay away from problems and they'll stay away from you, right? Wrong. My entire life, I'd craved simplicity, avoiding drama and controversy like the plague. I kept to myself, never rocking the boat or seeking trouble. But, as fate would have it, I got slammed with the most mind-wrenching, soul-shattering drama imaginable.*****His hands slipped under my skirt, gently tugging down my panties. This was wrong, so wrong, but it felt incredibly right. The tip of his fingers grazed my skin, sending jolts of electricity through me.He flashed his perfect smile. "I knew you were naughty," he whispered, his smooth baritone voice caressing my face. He sucked in my lips, his knee pressing against my skirt.My mind raced; my mom was going to kill me. But I pushed the thought aside. "You only live once," I told myself, surrendering to the moment.******The book was yanked from my grasp, and I met Ariana's scathing glare. "I told you to get ready, bitch," she spat.I rolled my eyes, exa

    ISABELLA The lights inside the club were buzzing with colors, the first thing I hated about this place. People were dancing all over. I rolled my eyes, already feeling overwhelmed.What's all the fuss about, Is the eclipse aligning with the apocalypse or something?"Bella, can you go wait for me at the bar? I'm going to meet Michael. I'll meet you in a bit," Ariana said, her voice high-pitched with excitement.I just nodded, not even in the mood to talk. She'd just broken up with Jordan last week because she saw him with a girl in bed, and now there was a new guy, Michael.If she had channeled the energy into something better, she might have discovered the cure for cancer."There's something different about this one," she'd said. I didn't know where she got the strength to handle all this stress.Me? I was 19 and had never had a boyfriend. Not that I was lesbian or anything - men were just pieces of shit if you asked me. I'd rather drool over fictional men than be in an actual relat

    ISABELLAI opened my eyes to see the guy from earlier, his eyes blazing with anger as he defended me.He turned to me, his expression softening. "Are you okay?" he asked, holding out his hand.I took it, still shaken. "Yeah, I'm fine," I replied, my voice barely above a whisper.In a moment of madness, I don't know what came over me, I leaned in and kissed him. The music, the chaos, everything faded into the background as our lips touched. It was like the whole world had come to a standstill.He matched my energy, his soft lips grasping mine with a gentle yet insistent intensity. I pulled him closer, my body craving more. His hand slid under my dress, his fingers tracing the curve of my hip before pressing into my ass.I hate how a jolt of pleasure rushes through my core.He stopped abruptly, and I stared into his honey-brown eyes, wondering why he had stopped.Wasn't he enjoying it? Oh. Damnit. Maybe he realized, I'm a stupid ass stranger that wants to hook up with him. “Let's go

    ISABELLAMy mom rushed into my room in an instant, her eyes frantically scanning the space to see what could have triggered my sudden, ear-piercing scream."Why did you scream like that?" My mom asked, her arms crossed over her chest, her brow furrowed in concern, but also with a hint of annoyance, as if she was already defensive, anticipating that whatever I was about to say would be something she didn't want to hear."Come see," I said, my eyes locked on hers, watching for her reaction as I gestured for her to come closer.She hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward, her eyes scanning the computer screen, and when she saw the picture, her expression changed, her eyes widening in shock.The room fell silent, the tension palpable, before my mom finally spoke up, her voice trembling slightly."How recent is this picture?" she asked, her eyes fixed on the screen, her tone laced with a mix of shock, concern, and a hint of fear.I quickly checked the information and replied to her al

"It seems like no matter how hard you try to run, you can't stay away from me," he teased, his eyes sparkling with amusement. He winked, and for a fleeting moment, I was captivated by his undeniable beauty. But I quickly shook off the feeling, reminding myself that this wasn't the time or place to acknowledge it."What are you doing here?" I asked, trying to sound nonchalant despite the alarm bells ringing in my head, as I struggled to ignore the insistent whispers of my instincts."I'm here on a date with my soon-to-be stepmom and stepsister," he said, his words dropping like a bombshell. My heart sank, plummeting to the depths of my stomach. This can't be happening. The room began to spin, and I felt like I'd been punched in the gut.He must have noticed my dishevelled expression because his brow furrowed with concern.“Is there a problem, Tesoro?” He a
