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
A couple of heartbeats in, I’m able to focus on Jesse’s face.“Glad to see you have woken up. Listen, Isabella, I don’t wish you any harm. I…I just need your help.”“No. Let me go.” “You will help me. You are the key!” “What the fuck are you talking about?” “I need you to heal me and give me an h
(Isabella’s POV)“Isabella, Jesse called…again.” Ariana hangs up the landline. I roll my eyes. “That tracks. He’s called my cell so many times my voicemail box is full.” Levi raises an eyebrow. “One call to Santiago could put a stop to that.” Shaking my head, I walk into the kitchen to find somet

“Perfect, she says as she completes one more round of vitals, then removes all the monitoring equipment. The doctor comes in and completes the discharge procedures with me. “Alpha Isabella, I want to remind you to be careful. We are still waiting for test results to come back. Silver blades seem t
(Santiago’s POV) Layla tells me she’s pregnant with my child. All I can do is shake my head. I don’t believe her at all. “Bullshit,” my wolf says in my mind. “I’ll remind you, Layla that even lies should be realistic. It’s been a long time since we had sex. So, if you are actually pregnant, if I
Layla turns the waterworks on again. “Are you going to let her speak that way to the mother of your child?”Santiago crosses his arms, “Yeah, pretty much.”“Santiago, this is your baby…our child.
