تسجيل الدخولWrong Choice, Right Choice.Bella kept staring at the silver button resting against her palm like it might suddenly explain itself if she looked long enough.It was definitely Theo and somehow out of everyone in the house that name somehow unsettled her the most.Aria glanced once down the hallway before lowering her voice carefully. “Are you sure?”Bella nodded slowly without taking her eyes off it. “I’ve seen this insignia before. Theo wears them on almost every jacket he owns.”Her chest tightened harder as she could feel her heart beating loudly. The button felt cold in her hand as she held it tightly.Aria crossed her arms tightly. “Then he was here.”Bella immediately shook her head though the movement lacked confidence. “That doesn’t mean he took the letter.”“Are you really putting sentiment into this,he might've.”Silence stretched between them again as she processed it deeply. Perhaps Aria was right.Somewhere downstairs voices echoed faintly through the mansion while serva
Things We Treasure Nobody spoke after Eleanor’s final warning as the room was filled with anxiety or fear may be both. The fire continued crackling softly behind them, but the warmth no longer reached the room. Bella stood near the table with her thoughts spiraling so fast she could barely keep hold of one before another replaced it.The letter had to be down somewhere, she had remembered throwing it but that was also the last time she saw it or she had touched it.Her stomach twisted harder as the implications was starting to dawn on her.Eleanor finally inhaled slowly before turning toward her again. “Think carefully.” Her voice was calmer now, though the strain beneath it remained obvious. “Where exactly did you put it after taking it?”Bella forced herself to think past the panic.“I took it from my room that night.” she admitted quietly.Eleanor looked confused…she could understand everything or the situation whatever it felt like, what she was trying to understand was why.Wh
Finding Clues.For a second, nobody moved as the fire crackled softly in the background while Eleanor’s final words lingered heavily inside the room.Bella stared at her, trying to understand why the older woman suddenly looked even more frightened than before.“The letter?” Bella repeated carefully. She was starting to panic herself but his the look on her face.Eleanor nodded immediately. “Yes.”Her voice sounded strained now and more urgent…Not the composed, controlled tone she normally carried. This was different.Bella exchanged a quick glance with Aria before looking back at her again.“What is going on where is it?”Bella swallowed once. “Errm…I.” She stuttered.The room went silent again as Eleanor looked at her confused and not understanding the situation.Bella’s brows pulled together faintly. “That is what I am trying to tell you.” She started.“Yes…Continue” Eleanor stepped closer this time, lowering her voice as though even the walls should not hear what came next.“It i
When It is TimeBella had not changed out of her clothes since the minutes she got in.She still sat near the edge of the bed with one leg folded beneath her, staring at absolutely nothing while the untouched tea beside her slowly lost warmth.The room felt heavy tonight, it was not loud or chaotic in any way but heavy.Almost like the kind of silence that settled after too many thoughts had been left alone for too long.Near the vanity table, Aria carefully folded one of Bella’s shawls before glancing back at her again.“You are thinking too much,” the other woman said softly.Bella let out a tired breath. “That seems to be everyone’s favorite sentence tonight.”“Because it’s true.”Bella leaned her head back slightly against the chair. The moonlight spilling through the curtains painted faint silver lines across the room while the fireplace crackled quietly nearby.For a while neither of them spoke. Then Bella finally murmured, “You heard what my Andre said earlier.”Aria nodded o
Those Who forget History.For one he hated this part of the building maybe because of what it reminded him of or not was just his ego. Whatever it was felt the same way even now.Andre noticed it the second he stepped inside that she had done a few changes.It was the same dark wooden walls, same antique lamps casting low amber light across the hallway but aside those two nothing else was how it was two days ago.Still the same silence was hanging over the place. He knew his Aunt Eleanor hated noise.She always said loud places made people not think while they were growing up. Well, those were the good old days as now he just couldn't understand her.Tonight, the estate was quieter than usual. The servants moved carefully after noticing who had arrived. By the time Andre had reached the sitting room at the far end of the house, Eleanor was already there waiting.She stood near the window with a glass untouched in her hand and judging from the look on her face, she was far from ple
Nothing Is Ever Coincidences Andre did not move immediately after Bella left..The doors had barely settled back into place when the silence returned, heavier than before.It stretched across the room, pressing into the walls, settling into the space she had just occupied.For a brief moment, his gaze remained fixed on the door…Then something in it shifted.Not outwardly , and definitely not enough for anyone watching to name it. But it was there, buried beneath control so practiced it had become second nature.“She speaks to you without restraint,” the elder finally said, careful.Andre did not respond. The man lingered a second longer, as if expecting something else When none came, he inclined his head slightly.“I will take my leave, Alpha.”Andre gave a small nod, dismissing him without a word.The door closed again and he was alone in the room. This time, he exhaled.His hand moved to the edge of the table beside him, fingers resting there briefly before curling against the wood
Brothers By Blood.It was Theo when she turned. Even if she knew by his voice when he had spoken standing right there made it seem different.He stood in the doorway with his chest rising hard and falling. He was heaving heavily with his eyes darker than Bella had ever seen them. The force with
Between Bloods.The forest had long fallen quiet by the time Bella opened her eyes.In a way the air still held the memory of what they did as it was filled with this ecstatic feeling that she couldn't understand.For a moment she did not remember where she was. The scent of pine lingered in the ai
Lurking In Darkness.The corridor led back to Bella's room who was completely unaware of the conversation just underneath her window if she looked outside.She wasn't in her room anyways. Bella had remained where she was until her father disappeared beyond the curve of the staircase. Only then did
What Lingers in SilenceThe morning came quietly, almost too precise for a place that had known so much unrest the night before. It almost didn't feel like it even as the sunlight slipped through the tall windows in rays. Settling across the room in soft glitters.It brushed over the bed, over the
