Cut off from the past.

Isabella.Every season has its time and purpose, but all of them were a reminder that all good things came to an end. But with that end came new beginnings.That was what happened over the next week. The tiny sheds of snow reduced until it was no more. The snowy layered ground began melting as the sun came. The water came rushing back in, bringing life to the bare trees and grass whose presence had retreated during the cold. Finally, the first green leaf sprouted from a branch.It was a new year. Spring was here.I flipped another page of the book I was reading, resting on the couch. Damian's school was resuming in several days, which meant that I was technically still on holiday. Sierra didn't have that luxury, going back to the bar the next day. With Agathe in her home and Leo somewhere else, I was practically alone for most of the day.That meant that I could take the time to wander around the Pack area and greet a few people. I even went to the pack mall once, finding the shop whe

The stranger.

Isabella.Perhaps months ago, this would have been a harder decision, but now, the choice was simple.Tears filling my eyes, I spoke in a deeper, more unrecognizable tone.“Sorry, I think you have the wrong number.”“No, no, no. Isabella? I heard you just now. I heard from her just now. You're the one who called me all those months ago, right? Please talk to me.”An almost distant sound came and I heard a voice, one I knew was my father. “Darling, let it go.” He said.“No. I heard her voice. She answered the call. Isabella please talk to me.”My tears now flowed freely. Heart broke piece by piece, each part shot by the arrow of my mother's pleading words.“Sorry. I don't know who,” My voice almost cracked at the last second. I swallowed quickly before continuing. “Who you're talking about. You have the wrong number. I'm sorry.”“Oh.” I shut my eyes tightly, resisting the urge to sob because of how heartbroken that single sound started.“Oh, I'm sorry. So, so sorry.” Her voice was tear

Rude!

Isabella.I was gobsmacked to say the least. I looked at both of them alternatively, trying to understand what was going on.I looked back at the blonde woman. She was indeed beautiful. Stunning, if I'd ever think of it. Yet no matter how I looked at her, she didn't seem like a werewolf. I had learned better after being blindsided at Sierra's identity all those months ago, but this time I was sure. She was, by all means, a human.The look the woman called Emilia gave me was nothing less than deadly. Her green eyes were cold, looking at me as though I was an insect.“Isabella?”His voice drew me out of the unintentional staring match.“Yes, Leo?” I spoke.Even as he said nothing, he gave me a certain look that brought me to the realization that I was still standing in the doorway and blocking the entrance.Quickly I stepped to the side, allowing for him to pass. It was the first time that I had seen him in what felt like ages, so eagerly I opened my mouth to ask if he was well. I didn'

The condition.

Leo.I worked silently in my room. It was already late in the night, and everybody else was likely already asleep. Yet I stood fast. The work was not needed to be done but to take my mind off her.I knew the way I had avoided her was wrong, yet I knew no other way to stay away. Avoiding was what I knew best, yet it felt so difficult with her even then.The look on her face as Emilia appeared behind me was one I didn't want to imagine. Despite the shock, she looked slightly crestfallen. I wouldn't have felt comfortable with a stranger, not to mention a human woman whose attitude I saw from a mile away, staying within my household. But I had no choice. The reason why?Because she was the condition Mr. Donavon gave during the meeting.Flashback.“Well then, Mr. Donavon. What is your final condition?”His lips formed a greasy smile. “Take my daughter to your city.”I blinked. “What?”Gino shuffled beside me, clearly more incensed.“She has always been intrigued with many things in your

Sierra is missing.

Isabella.After that last interaction, Leo never spoke to me since. At times, I would catch his scent only to find him long gone as though I had only spied a ghost. Whether at work or somewhere else, he was always constantly gone whenever I came.The few times I had managed to meet him, Emilia was constantly with him, whether in the living room or walking with him through the garden, and even coming and leaving with him in his car. She was so attached to him that wherever he was, she was there too.I never approached him whenever she was there. Anytime I saw them together, that bitter feeling I felt in the hallway bubbled up again. Though the bitter feeling was difficult to comprehend, its unpleasant curls within me were enough for me to avoid them before they noticed me.It was only on one occasion where I had been able to be undetected. That day, I was so focused on hushing Treasure who had been strangely inconsolable for several minutes. As I stepped into the dining room, I hadn't

Letting the secret out.

Isabella.“What?” I stuttered out.That didn't make any sense. None of it did.“Sierra's missing.” He said, affirming the thought I believed impossible. “She hadn't been home for the past 2 days now.”That wasn't possible. Two days? She was here just yesterday. How could…?That was when I remembered the day before. In the dining rooms where everyone else ate.She wasn't there.I thought she had retired early or stayed in. Had I made excuses in my melancholia, not even bothering to check on her? What had happened to me?What had happened to her?It was as though the winter was back with the way cold washed over me.No, I was sure. She would've been with Damian if anything.I let out a breath as I called her phone number, only to hear it was switched off.Why was her phone switched off? Worry began filling me as my thoughts rushed. Suddenly, the thought hit me.Damian was gone for two days. I looked at my contacts searching for Damian's contact.“Her phone is swi–"“–I know,” I interr

Broken trust.

Isabella.The drive back to the pack was silent, with tension which would be difficult to cut through looming over all of us.Right now the fragile silence and peace was all I could grapple onto to allay the anxiety that rose by the minute. I stayed in the back of the car, watching the two silence peope in the front seats. All the while, a single question echoed in my mind.What had I done?Interfering with any relationship was not in any of my goals. And now, because of my actions, I had wounded not one but two relationship lines.Damian. My empathy reached out for him at the last sight I had, bloodied and bruised, thanks to Leo. I hoped he healed. He was going to hate me. It didn't take a genius to put the pieces together. By now, he must have been aware of my part in this. I would have lost a friend, and most likely my job as well.By the time we passed the gates, the sunset was looming down, turning into the night. My heart palpitated faster as we neared the house, stopping righ

Caught in a condemning position.

I took several steps back as she stood up.“Sierra-”“Stop!” She roared. My heart skipped a beat at her outburst.“I'm sorry," I tried to say, but she cut me off right after.“Sorry, for what? For ruining my life? For destroying the relationship I held so long with Damian? For destroying the trust my brother had in me? For making me lose trust in you?”I breathed out harshly. “I didn't mean to tell him. When he said you were missing, I thought of everything. I tried contacting you, contacting Damian. I began to panic and wonder if you were safe. It all just came–"“—Came out? You should have picked up the dots. Why would you think I went missing out of nowhere?”“Because you never talked to me! All the times we were having conversations, you were spaced out or distracted. Even if I asked, would you have answered?” I spat out, unable to hold it anymore.“You know, I finally get it."Get what? I wondered, taking a step back. The look on her face alone was enough to frighten me.“Back th

Spoken secrets.

Isabella.Agathe came to my room that night, a sleeping Treasure in her arms along with another girl holding a tray of food behind her.I let her in, hoping that she didn't notice the sight of my swollen eyes as she switched on the lights and directed the girl. I should have known that was a lost cause as her face softened as the other girl left the room quietly.“It seems there was a big fuss yesterday.” She said, putting Treasure into his bed carefully.Unable to trust my voice, I nodded silently, not even bothering to look away anymore. She had seen it already. Arms now free, she came forward until she stood in front of me.“Tell me what happened, dear.”Those words were a trigger, bringing the tears I thought had all been expended to well up again. As they fell, I was covered in her embrace and comforting smell, her murmurs soothing me.Once my surge of tears stopped, I told her everything. From Sierra's secretive behavior to Leo's distance. I told her about my knowledge of her an

Enstrangled.

Isabella.Stumbling in surprise, I righted myself, holding onto Treasure who wriggled from my grip. Once the surprise wore off, I spied down the stairs to see if anyone else was coming up?“No one's coming. They're still in the dining room, eating.” She told me. “Isn't it disrespectful to look away from someone who's talking to you?” She asked slyly.I looked straight at her.“What do you want?” I asked straightforwardly.“Well, I wanted to know if what I saw this afternoon was my imagination.”I furrowed my brows, yet inside my heart beat fast. “This afternoon? I don't know what you're talking about.”“Oh, I know more than you think.” she said, taking a step towards me. “I pity you, you know.”“Her words made me flinch in shock. “What?”“You know what he called you? A guest.” I flinched as she laughed. “You're literally the mother of his child, and yet he ignores you. How pathetic!”Cold washed over me at her words. How could she know that?“He's not… Leo isn't…” I shook my head.“O
