Isabella’s POV

The feather seemed to pulse with dark energy, whispering secrets I couldn’t hear yet. My stomach twisted.

Sienna had been here, or perhaps something had.

The grand hall of Moon Crest glittered like a polished blade; cold, sharp, and deadly beneath the moonlight pouring in through its tall arched windows.

I stood just beyond the threshold, my breath caught in my throat, my fingers tightening around the silken folds of my ceremonial dress.

I'd been groomed and pressed into form like some ornamental offering: my curls pinned in place, a deep sapphire gown laced with silver threading to reflect the Slade colors. I was meant to belong. But every eye that turned my way whispered something else entirely.

My heart stumbled a beat as the doors closed behind me, then the feast had begun.

The table stretched down the center of the room like a spine; noble wolves from allied families on either side, their polished smiles hiding teeth. And at the far end sat Trenton.

  • Fated to the Forbidden Three: A Triple Mate Bond   Shattered trust

    Isabella’s pov A thick mist hung just beyond the windows, curling tendrils of fog creeping like silent ghosts around the ancient stone walls. Inside, the candlelight cast wavering shadows that danced and twisted across the high ceilings. My thoughts churned relentlessly, refusing to settle as I paced the dim hallway outside Oliver’s study. I could still feel the weight of the last revelation pressing down on my chest, suffocating in its intensity.My fingers traced the carved stone pillars absentmindedly. The estate was supposed to be a fortress, a sanctuary, yet somehow it had become a prison tangled in lies and forgotten magics.I steeled myself and stepped inside the study, where Oliver stood hunched over a large, glowing orb set upon the ancient oak desk. The orb shimmered with shifting shadows that seemed to writhe beneath the surface, reflecting something deeper than light. Oliver’s eyes, dark and serious, flicked up when I entered.“Isabella,” he said quietly, “there’s someth

  • Fated to the Forbidden Three: A Triple Mate Bond   The storm inside

    Isabella’s POV His words softened the knot in my chest, but the secrets between us still felt vast and dangerous.As he turned to leave, I felt a cold whisper brush my skin, a silent warning that the peace we all hoped for was fragile, and shadows were closing in faster than we realized.And I didn’t know if any of us would survive the storm to come.The wind had been howling all afternoon, a low, mournful sound that rattled the windows of the estate. I stood by the great oak table in the main hall, my hands clutching my journal tightly as dark clouds rolled across the sky, blotting out the sun. The air was thick with the scent of rain and something else, an undercurrent of unease that prickled at my skin.“Looks like a storm’s coming,” Darcy said softly, stepping up beside me. His eyes scanned the horizon, worried like mine.I nodded, unable to shake the feeling that this storm was different, more than just weather. It felt like the calm before a much bigger tempest.As the first f

  • Fated to the Forbidden Three: A Triple Mate Bond   Boiling point

    Isabella’s POV That night, as the camp settled into uneasy rest, I stood outside, staring at the dark forest’s edge. The stars glittered cold and distant, like silent witnesses.A rustle behind me made me whirl around, Riven stepped out from the shadows, his eyes gleaming.“You’re not safe,” he said softly. “Not here, not anywhere.”I met his gaze, feeling the heavy truth in his words.“We need to find the traitor,” I whispered.He nodded, “And soon, before it’s too late.”Behind us, the forest seemed to close in, alive with secrets and dangers unseen.And beneath the surface of this fragile peace we had, the game of loyalty was only just beginning.The patrol ended and we all returned to our various rooms. The night was unusually quiet, but my mind was anything but calm. I sat alone on the window seat in my room, staring out at the darkened trees beyond the estate, trying to steady the the way my heart was pounding in my chest. The shadows seemed to flicker and twist like living

    Isabella’s POV I wrapped the amulet in cloth and hid it beneath my pillow, determined to uncover the secrets buried deep within the pack before it was too late.But as I drifted into uneasy sleep, the whispered warning echoed louder than ever: Masks will fall.And I feared I wouldn’t be ready to face what came next.The air was thick with tension the morning after Sienna saved that pup from the magical trap. The pack still buzzed with murmurs, some wary, some hopeful, but no one dared to speak openly about what it might mean. I stayed quiet, feeling the weight of that cryptic message burned into my mind: ‘Phase Two Initiated.’ The artifact hidden beneath my pillow felt heavier than ever.As I moved through the estate’s great hall, the familiar scent of pinewood and leather filled the air. Magnus stood at the far end, surrounded by Cain and his elders. Their faces were stoic, eyes sharp, but the undercurrent of unease ran deep beneath their ceremonial robes. I was beginning to wonder

  • Fated to the Forbidden Three: A Triple Mate Bond   Underneath it all

    Isabella’s POV The sunlight was weak as I slipped quietly through the corridors of the estate, my footsteps muffled by the thick wool rug that lined the hallways. The note from last night weighed heavy in my pocket, its cryptic message circling relentlessly in my mind: “Masks will fall. The truth is closer than you think.” Who had left it? And what truth was the person talking about?I pushed those questions aside for now. Today, I had an appointment, one I couldn’t ignore. Riven had promised to teach me more about Cain’s magic, and I needed answers more than ever.The old ruins waited just beyond the eastern edge of the forest, halfswallowed by creeping ivy and ancient stones. Their shadow stretched long across the ground as I approached, my heart pounding with a mixture of anticipation and dread.Riven was already there, leaning casually against a broken column, his dark eyes sparkling with mischief.“Right on time,” he said, flashing that infuriating grin. “Ready to dig deeper?”

    Isabella’s POV The pack fell silent, tension snapping tight like a drawn bowstring. The night had shifted, This wasn’t just a celebration anymore. Something dark was creeping closer, and none of us were ready.The weight of the evening’s events pressed against me like the heavy fog rolling over the hills outside the estate. I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was unraveling, not just around me, but inside me too. The pack’s celebrations were behind us now, but the tension hung in the air like a thick, suffocating blanket and my mind refused to settle.I found myself wandering toward the kitchen, hoping a quiet moment with Helena might bring some clarity. The night had already drained me, and yet, a part of me desperately needed answersfrom the one person who seemed closest to the truth but also furthest from me.Helena was already there, stirring a pot with slow, deliberate movements, as if the act of cooking might steady her nerves. When she saw me, her eyes softened, and fo
