LOGINI feel the floodgates open. I hyperventilate as I speak. “He said he was going to kill her to steal my healing ability. He said he was going to force me to give him an heir, and he stabbed me twice with a silver blade!” “Easy, Bella. Take deep breaths. Jesse is in prison. He will stand trial, and
(Isabella’s POV)I refuse to open my mouth. There is no way after everything I’ve lost that this monster is taking my wolf or anything else from me, for that matter. Jesse slides one arm under me. Lifts me up. Then yanks my ponytail, pulling my head backward I’m able to shift my position and free

(Isabella’s POV)My eyes roll back in my head. I think I blacked out for a second. Suddenly, I have a flashback to the moments that followed after I downed my drink at the hotel. I see myself sitting in the hallway of the hotel moments after drinking the concoction that was mixed in my alcoholic co
“I agree, he is definitely a kid,” Santiago says. “He’s the kid who took our picture that night at the hotel after you were drugged.” All I can do is nod my head in agreement. Mr. Singer asks us to view the other images. I gasp at the sight and bury my face in Santiago’s chest. Briefly, he wraps h
