Isla’s POVDario’s words had caused my body to stiffen. It also seemed to have awoken me because my partly shut eyes stared at him.An embarrassed look ran through my face, and immediately, I untangled myself from his arm. Dario seemed to have gotten the memo because he dropped me down on the ground.I began to walk ahead of him when I heard him speak. I halted my steps as his words bounced out arrogantly. “You shouldn’t have just left the house in that manner.” He scolded me. “Why do you always have to take action without thinking?”“I’m sorry!” I said, hoping my words would prevent him from yelling, but I was very wrong.“Your words aren’t going to cut it!” Dario spat at me. “You are willing to put yourself in danger when you’re clearly aware of the fact that whoever sent Katherine is out there somewhere.”Behind Dario’s barks, I could feel a drop of melancholy in his voice. I felt a little bit guilty for just leaving. Dario had every right to be mad. I couldn’t blame him for feeli
Isla’s POV I stepped inside the meeting hall, and the councilmen all rose, bowing their heads to pay their respects to Dario.They moved their eyes in my direction, and a look of sympathy flashed across their faces. Their eyes swerved from my direction to the door when they heard it open.I moved my eyes away from them and noticed that the guards had entered with Silvan, Katherine and their parents.Silvan avoided my face as usual, but Katherine had a feisty look on her face; she didn’t feel any drop of guilt.“That brat!” Nima cooed. “Unleash me. I want to rip her head off.”“Let’s wait for the men to do their jobs,” I told her. "They would pass on a good judgment.”“I think mine would be better.”“Just relax.” Nima was quiet after this. Silvan and his family were pushed to the centre of the room. All eyes were on them, and from the looks on Dario’s face, he was feeling just like how Nima was. I felt like he wanted to rip their heads off.The eldest man stood up once Dario had sat
Dario’s POVIsla’s words sank into my head, but I didn’t dwell on them long. I turned to face the councilmen, who had their attention on Katherine. I knew my next decision would cause an uproar, but it was the best. That was the only way I would be able to tackle the matter and get to the root of things.With a heavy sigh, I moved my eyes in Isla’s direction. She had a look of anticipation, awaiting my words like a child awaiting candy.I pulled my gaze away from her, placing all my attention on my men.“That’s enough!” I instructed with my voice thundering. The men snapped their heads in my direction. “The meeting is over.” As I said those words. I could feel a shift in Isla’s emotions. “You.” I pointed to one of my men. “Take Katherine back to the dungeon and free the rest of them.”I heard Isla gasp, and she wasn’t the only one who had reacted to my words. Kai, as usual, had thrown his words in the form of daggers my way.“Don’t tell me this one of your ‘I’m doing it for her go
Dario’s POV When we arrived home, I retreated to my room for a quick shower, heading downstairs afterwards.Brenda was the only one on the table when I got downstairs, and Isla’s chair was empty.“Where’s Isla?” I asked her, making myself comfortable on the chair opposite her.“She grabbed an apple from the table and headed upstairs.”“Hmm!” I responded.“I’m worried about her, Dario!” Brenda’s voice caused me to look away from my meal. I turned in her direction and noticed that concern etched at the corner of her face.“She’s fine,” I said, placing my eyes on my food.“I don’t think she is ever since her return. I don’t know why, but I feel there’s something different about her.”“I don’t see it.” I cooed, and at that moment, I don’t know why, but I felt she was trying to get words out of me.I stared at Brenda once again. She had her eyes on me as though she was awaiting my response.“I don’t feel that anything is wrong with Isla.”“I get the reason why you’re oblivious.” She arche
Isla’s POVI sat on the edge of my bed, munching away the apple in my hands. I didn’t have much of an appetite for dinner. I decided to settle for something light and was glad when I picked up the apple from the dining table. Brenda didn’t bother acting like she normally does—trying to be a mother.Once I was done with my apple, I got myself ready for bed, changing into a silk night dress. As I settled into bed, drawing the covers over my body. I felt an uneasy feeling. The second I closed my eyes, whisking away into sleep mode, I was greeted by the warehouse scenery. I jolted from my sleep, throwing away the covers.I got up quickly, walking towards the window. Nima spoke up; her voice was soothing, offering me comfort.“You are safe now!”“I’m aware. I don’t understand why I can’t forget about the warehouse.”“Why don’t you take deep breaths and relax? It’s going to be fine.”Her soothing tone sent me back to bed, but I still ended up haunted by the warehouse.Without thinking, I l
Isla’s POVDario kneaded my sensitive nipple in his hands as he switched the pace grinding into me with renewed vigour, gyrating his hips in rolling thrusts, driving his cock to the hilt inside my clingy hole. It was all too much. I moaned, savouring the delightful fullness, the slight pang of pain as he increased his pace. His thrusts drove me insane, tickling my engorged clit, my slit mashed against the sheets, soaking the fabric.I slide my arm in front of me, placing it into his soft hair. Dario grabbed my arm and pulled me away. He pinned it against the bed. He leaned down, nipping my ear. As he slammed his cock deeper with me reaching my core, and I gasped."Dario," I moaned, gasping again as he drove his rigid erection, further touching my walls. I could feel him breathing hard in my ear, groaning as he thrusts. "Fuck, Isla, "He slithered his tongue over my lips, moaning into me, as he continued to fuck me, wildly determined, with deep, slamming strokes.I held his face, my
Isla’s POVI woke up in my room the following day. It was clear that Dario had dropped me here. As I shifted to the other side of the bed, my nostrils were engulfed with Dario’s scent, allowing me to know he had stayed in my bed for a while.I got up, feeling excited and chirpy. Yesterday had opened the doors to something great, and I just knew that things were going to get better from here on.“You’re right!” Nima said, commending me. “And everything is because of you.”“Well, I can’t give myself all the praises yet.”“Why the hold-up?” She questioned, but I guessed she knew the answer to that already.Dario was known to switch up. He was Dario, and despite the fact that we had gotten closer and shared an erotic moment or moments rather. He might end up…“I thought you were looking at the positive part of things?” Nima asked. “I am, but I’m just trying not to get too excited.”“You shouldn’t hold yourself back!” She cooed. “With how things are going, I see yourself becoming the Luna
Isla's POVTime had passed, and the healer, Sapphire, hadn't spoken yet. I waited patiently for her to speak, the tension mounting with each passing moment as she studied me with a penetrating gaze. Dario's presence beside me offered some measure of comfort, his reassuring touch a grounding force that kept my discomfort in check. Finally, Sapphire broke the silence, her voice calm and measured as she addressed me. "Miss Isla," she began, rising from her seat with a graceful elegance that belied the gravity of her words. "I believe your recent experiences may be linked to the awakening of your wolf." I swallowed hard, my heart pounding in my chest as her words sank in. "What do you mean?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper. Sapphire's eyes met mine, her gaze unwavering as she continued. "It's possible that your recent transformation has triggered an imbalance in your pheromones, causing them to fluctuate unpredictably." I felt a surge of fear and confusion, my mind racing w
