LeoShe wasn't different, if not for her hair, once slightly past shoulder length, had grown longer, enough to sweep into a ponytail. But no, instead, it flowed down, slightly haggard but remained neat all the same. It looked more ethereal than anything, akin to a fairy.“You're back.” She said. I fought a smile on my face at the obvious she stated, proving that she was stunned, if not processing my presence.It was alright though, I was doing the same after all.Her scent was warm and comforting, and for the first time, I resisted the urge to come closer. A strange thought considering that I had never wanted to embrace anyone aside from Sierra.There were these thoughts again.It was homesickness, surely. She… she reminded me of home.I swallowed.“You look the same,” I said, swallowing at the lack of words to say, like it always was during times like this.“So, how much of a troublemaker was my sister?” I said, shifting the topic to Sierra. We were always more comfortable when it ca

Attack.

IsabellaThump. Thump. ThumpThe constant clash of the sharp metal against the wooden board with every movement, amongst the slight hum of the other appliances was what filled my senses.I bided my time cutting the vegetables in the kitchen to prepare for dinner tonight. It was therapeutic in a way, freeing my mind from all thoughts. Yet the slight sensation of his hand on my wrist lingered, and I had no idea why.So I continued chopping, mixes of golden, red, and green vegetables diced were kept in a large bowl, yet I still cut up more.“That's where the noise came from.”His voice made me turn alert, only to relax once I saw his face. No longer in the business clothing, he wore a long sleeved shirt, also in the color black.I turned away as quickly as I could, so he didn't notice me ogling. He didn't leave. Instead, his footsteps drew closer until I felt his presence inches away from my side.“How's Agathe doing now?”“She's better, almost recovered,” I responded to his question qui

His first words.

Isabella’s POVMy thoughts raced around gaps I couldn't understand.Pressure came onto my shoulders gripping hard. Each sensation felt muted.“Hey! Isabella.” A voice called out.“Breathe… please breathe…”I shook my head. It… he didn't understand.“I…can't…” I choked out. “Focus on me. Hey! Look at me, okay? What can you see? Five colors.”Colors? “Trust me on this. Can you tell me five colors?”My sight was shaky, fixated on the image I saw.The first thing I saw was blue. One which sparked almost golden. It was the image of the sea as the sun came up. The second I saw was black. Seas and rifts that came near waves. It wasn't though, rather strands stuck out.The third thing, as I looked down, was black. The lines of the collar were so intricate, even its color couldn't hide the layers of threading.The fourth thing was the creamy color of skin. It was arm, the pores visible, and yet, smooth.The fifth and last thing I saw was peak, lips cracked tooth tinted peach, slightly cracke

An open secret.

Isabella’s POVDuring the past few days, my interactions with Leo had been little. He never brought up the matter again, and I didn't know whether to be relieved or to feel something else. Early that morning, I spent my time watching the cold snow on the porch, sitting on the chair I placed. Treasure was awake yet content to continuously watch me while murmuring mama to me. I hadn't gotten used to it yet, and I doubted I ever was.The entrance door opened suddenly, and I looked as Sierra stepped out of the door.“It's cold out here, Izzy.” She noted.“I don't mind,'' I shrugged, looking at her. She was fully dressed, as though she wanted to go somewhere.“Where are you going?” I asked lightly, not wanting my unease to filter out.“I'm going out to meet Damian. He's taking me to an inn somewhere. We're going to spend Christmas together.” The smile she had was small, yet the look in her eyes showed the true happiness in her expression.And yet, it filled me with nothing but unease. I w

A tough decision.

Isabella's POV Silence filled the kitchen as the word was spoken. Agathe stared at me, surprise evident at the current situation.One would have thought there was someone else in the vicinity, someone like Leo, who at hearing himself as the core topic of discussion, instantly objected, throwing us both in for a loop.It could have been Sierra, who for some unknown reason came back and heard us in the kitchen, didn't want us discussing her brother. I would have been subjected to her ire, especially after the events that happened only minutes ago on the porch.But it was neither of those. There was nobody standing at the door of the kitchen, or anyone else at all. Leo was likely still in his room, Sierra hadn't returned, and it was only Agathe and I alone in the kitchen.It took me a few moments to find that it came out, not from anybody else's lips, but mine. It took me another second to stand by my words.“Agathe,” I began. “I honestly think that there's no need to tell me. After all

Aligning with his wolf.

Leo“Leo?”I turned towards her, only to find her gaze locked on me. She said nothing, and she looked contemplative. It was times like these that I wished I could peep into another's mind.A thought came to my mind about what she was potentially thinking of, and I couldn't push it away. Was there a chance that she was thinking of my offer?“yeah?” I asked, hoping to gain some insight into whatever she was thinking. How long was I going to wait? Seconds passed like minutes, yet she said nothing.She shut her eyes. Then she shook her head, giving me a small smile. “Nevermind. It seems like you're still busy.”I swallowed against her words, disappointment bleeding through me. Still I moved on, giving an uncharacteristic comment before she left.Seconds after she left, my gaze remained fixated on the door. It was only after I caught myself did I move back to my desk fast or could have caught whiplash.Was she going to ask regarding my offer? I wondered.Ever since that day, the topic ha

The calm before the storm.

Isabella's POV I ended up chatting with Claire and even greeted Lola on the way. With what was a call for half an hour, I had finally gotten something done for Leo.I retired to sleep, only for knocks to come on my door. I opened the door to find Sierra on the other side.The air was awkward in every way. We both sat there in silence, only the slight sounds of our breaths present.“I'm sorry.” She said. I stayed silent as she continued. “For lashing out like that. I'm sorry.”I had my own thoughts in mind, especially with what she had said regarding bringing me as a way to merge the packs. It reminded me of what Damian had said all those months ago.Coming to a conclusion after that was easy. I was the only outlier. Despite being a rogue, I wasn't part of the pack, and I was alien from the animosity that was bred between both packs. It was no surprise why she… or they chose me to go into their pack.My thoughts went back to the time in the living room, when she said that she thought o

The death anniversary.

Isabella.I woke up in the morning. A strange sort of quiet filled me with unease.The skies were still as bright as it had been yesterday, and the day before, yet something felt somber about today.I stepped out of the room, careful not to wake Treasure as I did, and headed to the living room.To my surprise, Sierra was there, sitting in a curled position on the couch and sipping from a mug whilst staring at the distance through the large window of the living room.What was odd wasn't only her smaller position, but was her dress.She wore a simple black dress. The skirt of the dress was long and flowing, such that I only saw her feet, the rest of her body covered by the skirt. There were no embellishments or jewelry adorning her frame.Sierra was no stranger to black, yet I had never seen her wear a dress, much less one soft in contrast with her edgy fashion.Most of all was the look in her eyes so somber and melancholic.“On that day, his parents…”It finally clicked.A funeral.No,

Happy birthday.

LeoShe said nothing else, and I didn't too.Soon the silence became heavy, yet as I glanced, she stayed silent.Waiting.‘What are you afraid of?’ I wasn't sure if it was my thoughts, or him. It could have been both of us, as I couldn't dispute it.I felt comfortable with her. And for the first time, I realized that I didn't mind her knowing my truth.“My father was a rogue wolf, from what is now known as the Red Eclipse pack. He and the Alpha were raised together, practically close as brothers. And then, my father fell in love."I looked up, the scope of tiny specs continuously floating above the abyss."My mother was also a rogue. She never told us any details, but my father used to say she was running away from some bad men when she met him. Their former pack couldn't let him be with her. So, he left.”I swallowed despite the dry feeling in my throat before I continued.“They went through plenty of hardships, but they found the forest, and decided to build something.It wasn't a p

The strange call.

Isabella.My hands trembled harder, chilly like the cold wind. My heart beat unnecessarily fast. It bounced so hard that I thought I was going to burst. I was sinking, my legs nothing but a pair of ribbons, ready to cave in at the slightest bit of wind. Yet I remained standing, right in front of his door, looking at him as he looked down at the box I held.Under the warm lights, his face was golden. His dark hair was akin to a shadow, never reflecting the light. It was the same characteristic of the wolf. His wolf.As he looked up at me, it took effort to not crush the box I held in my hands.His eyes were almost golden against the lights, they…What was I thinking? I swallowed, also wondering why he hadn't moved. Perhaps it was best if I made the first move. With a smile to my lips, I pushed my present forward.“Go on. Open it,” I said.He looked down and took the box from my hands. I let a breath leave me as I took a small step back.Trepidation filled me as I watched him open the
