All Chapters of The Predator: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Isabella had spent the past week pondering on the conversation she and Alessandro had had. She wanted to tell him all his mother had said. Hoping it might bring him a little comfort. However, she couldn’t, she had spoken of her future in Isles. Her strength and a possible romance between her and Alessandro. She wanted to embrace that, to let the past go and step into a new future, a future with Alessandro A future that held a lot of prospects. She was however not going to abandon her family. Louis was the only family she had left, she would protect him with everything even if it meant forfeiting her chance at happiness and putting her life on the line. Even if she stayed back she was not sure of what Alessandro’s feeling was for her. Whatever his mother had said might not have meant anything...she silently hoped it meant something. Most importantly the queen had spoken of her strength, at that time she had not understood what she meant. Now she understood it, she was going to use th

She spent the rest of the day tucked in the room, Alessandro had been away for a few days and if she guessed correctly he was out hunting down her brother. She didn’t have it in her to have any more interactions, after she had relayed the message to the King, Sam had brought her meals to her room and she had stayed tucked in. If Cecily’s plans worked tomorrow would be a turning point in her life. She was finally going to get to her brother and earn her freedom. However, if she was honest with herself she didn’t want freedom. Not if it included being far away from Alessandro. She never wanted Isles. It had become a great part of her. She needed to do this for her sanity. She was losing it and it concerned Alessandro. She was not sure what exactly his feelings for her were, not too long ago he was after her life. It was hard to tell what he felt now. She was only his pet. She would never be able to watch Alessandro be with someone else, she had to go far away maybe to put an end to

Thoughts of last night flooded her mind for the umpteenth time that day and she knew her cheeks were already crimson. It was uncontrollable, Alessandro was all she could think of. She picked up the coffee mug and tried to hide her cheeks however Marie caught in before she could. “Isabella you care to share what’s making you so happy this morning?, I'll genuinely like to share in your joy”. Cecily stole a glance at her. “Marie", Isabella whined, "Not again, not this morning" “Seriously Bella. You have been so giddy all morning. You can’t be sitting there and blushing for nothing", Marie replied. Isabella tucked her hair behind her ear, “It’s nothing, Marie”. Marie paused for a while and looked at her, “Oh you and Alessandro did something for sure". Isabella spat the coffee back into the cup, Marie laughed mischievously, “Oh I knew it. It's quite easy to tell, it's written all over you and you're blushing real hard ". “Marie not now please", Isabella said embarrassed. She hadn’t w

He left the study and went to his father’s chambers. He tapped lightly on the door and pushed it open, “Father?” Malcolm gave him a once over, “I thought you had abandoned your duties to your people or have you finally come to your senses? " “My loyalties are forever with my people”, Alessandro answered. “You abandoned them for days, you have not made any appearances, missed council meetings and shunned out everyone but you say your loyalty is with your people. That’s hard to believe", the king said in a low voice. “I came here to talk about my plans, not about my failures as king or as a son", Alessandro snapped in anger, “I believe you know more than any other person about a king’s failures!” Malcolm rose in anger, “You’ll not challenge me because of a worthless human! You would never understand what it is to lose your mate” “I want to seek the help of the witches' clan”, Alessandro blurted out, “I need their help tracking her whereabouts” The king chuckled, “This is what I’m

Gwendoline had picked out a favourite dress, she was on a mission. It was a red lace see-through dress, her assets were laid bare for all to see. Nudity was not a problem for vampires. However no one dared to look at her, it was known to all and sundry that she belonged to Alessandro. All the palace guards and maids scurried passed her and bowed their heads in a bid to avoid making eye contact with her. She sauntered off purposely in a lovely gait. Her long blonde hair draped across her shoulders in sultry waves.When she got to Alessandro's door it was shut tight, however, it was no match for her vampire strength, she pushed it open forcefully and walked in to see Alessandro in a far corner, his head hung in despair, his skin a pale shade."Gwendoline", he drawled out."Alessandro""Didn't you hear that I asked to be left alone?", He questioned."I did but that does not apply to me. Maybe to Kieran and the other palace guards, not me", she answered, "I worry about you Alessandro and I
