Chapter 3

Isabey's eyes fixed on the man. He came forward, then stopped at a distance. He was also looking so cautious. Isabey didn't pick up his scent maybe because she was so drowning in her thoughts.

"I asked. Who are you? What are you doing on our land?" Isabey's gaze fixed on him.

He felt the power radiating from her body. She is a Luna.

"I am not here to do any harm. This land belongs to Alpha Marcus. I am a friend." He said. Isabey's heart dropped in her chest when he heard his name.

"This land doesn't belong to Alpha Marcus anymore... I don't care. Why are you even here?" She growled.

"Okay, I am here to meet my daughter. I am an Alpha. My name is Damien." He said. Isabey thinks of it. She had heard his name before! It sounds familiar... She didn't remember where and when! Maybe he is an Ally of Marcus.

"This land is banned. No one can enter here. Your daughter is not here. I think you came to the wrong place." She said.

"As far as I remember. It was a pack. Black Thunder Pack." The man said. Isabey gulped; she didn't want to cry. She gripped the hem of her shirt tightly.

"Yes, it was a pack." Isabey's face clung with sadness.

"I think. I should go. If my daughter is not present here, my work is done." Alpha Damien turned to go away.

"Wait." Isabey stopped him. He looks towards her face.

"What is the name of your daughter?" She asked.

Alpha Damien stopped then after thinking for some time. He smiled.

"Edwina Rose Damien." He said. Isabey's eyes widen with shock and surprise.

"My daughter is a warrior. She is always in training. However, it's been a year since she returned home. She goes for a few months, so I got worried about her..." He said. Isabey looked at his face to find a sign of a lie, but there was none; the man was telling the truth. Edwina Rose. How can she forget that girl? A girl who has control over Isabey's mate more than her...

"So, why did you come here? You can look for her training session places." Isabey said.

"This pack was her home. She was thinking of moving here because she spent all her time here, the last time she went on training. Edwina informed me that she will not come back home. Edwina wanted to live here with..." The man stopped.

"With!" Isabey asked, but the man started moving backward.

"Wait!" She said, but he shifted into his wolf, running away from the place.

Isabey was going to run behind him when she felt a presence. She turned around to find a wolf coming out from the bushes but she didn't flinch back. The best came near her, then shifted in his human form.

"What was taking you so long? I was worried about you." Louis said. He tried to grab his hand, but she moved away from him.

"Nothing. I found someone here. I was talking to..." She said but stopped. He was looking at her in doubt.

"What?" She asked. Louis grabbed her hand and then made her sit on a fallen log.

"Isabey, there is no one here. Whom were you talking to?" He asked in a soft tone.

"No, there was a man. He was a wolf." She said. Louis shook his head.

"Isabey, look. There is no one here. No, man. No wolf. It is not anyone's scent here. Stop hallucinating about things..." He said, looking in her eyes.

"But Louis. I am not lying. I have seen him. He was standing there..." She sobbed. Louis made her close to his body wrapping his arms strongly around her naive self.

"Isabey, stop it. You are not doing any good to yourself. All these hallucinations. These people. It is nothing. I thought you were over it." Louis kissed her forehead.

"Louis, I know. It is not good for me. I don't know, I think I saw this man." She said. Louis grabbed her face in his hands and then caressed her cheeks.

"Tell me. Who was he? What was his name? I will bring him to your feet at any cost." He said. She thought about it. Alpha Damien. If she were to tell him about the man. Louis will destroy his pack. He will go to any extent to bring him to her. Also, what if the man never came to Isabey? Maybe she was visualising. She thought she was over all these dreams, but it is getting worse day by day. She needs to figure out what is going on with her!!!

The pain is not going away.

"Isabey, Isabey!" Louis called her. She looked in his eyes.

"I don't know. Maybe I was dreaming. I am not going crazy Louis..." She sobbed.

"No, Isabey. You are fine. It will all go away. You just need some rest. Come, let's go home. You need to sleep." He said. She nodded, then placed her head on his shoulder. Louis gets up from the log. He picked her up in his arms. The sun was peeking from the east.

He was walking with her towards his pack. Their shadows were dark on the ground. Isabey looks behind to find the same scene.

HIM.

He was looking towards her, his eyes. She closed her eyes.

Alpha Damien ran back into the forest, and he saw the wolf coming towards Isabey. He picked up his scent.

He was running out of the Black Thunder Territory. He had to reach back home. He is the Alpha of the Red Crescent Pack.

An honourable Alpha, but more than that, he is a loving father. Their pack is the allies of Black Thunder Pack. Marcus was like a son to him; he had seen him grow up with Edwina. They both look so good together. He smirked in his head.

He finally saw the clearing. The Red Crescent Pack is a little pack. It is not popular because it is hideous to so many eyes. Alpha Damien always protected his pack by not picking fights. He has allies, but he is still so cautious. He ran towards the deep waterfall and then jumped into it. The flow of the water was so harsh, but he swam back to the bank and then ran into the forest.

Alpha Damien reached his pack boundaries, he shifted back in his human form than wear some clothes. He entered the pack then heaved a deep sigh!!! He starts walking back towards the packhouse. Alpha Damien reached the place when a girl ran out from inside. She ran directly to him and hugged him tightly.

"OH, Father. You came back..." She giggled.

"Haha, yes. I came back." He said.

"Father, tell me. How was she?" She asked, moving away from his father.

"She was the same. Broken." He said smiling.

"She deserves it." The girl's eyes shine with rage.

"What did you do?" She asked.

"What you asked for... I am so sure. She will be here in a few days...

It is just a matter of time, Edwina." Alpha Damien kissed her forehead. She smiled.

"Thank you, father. I will go and tell him." She ran back inside the packhouse. Edwina's heart was beating loudly. She runs upstairs towards his room. She reached the room, and she was standing on the door. She knocked on the door.

"Hey, can I come inside?" She asked.

"From when you start asking for my permission!!!" She heard. Edwina laughed loudly and then entered the room. She

Blushed, looking at him in the towel.

"Marcus..."
