Thalia's pov

I found myself standing at Isabella's doorstep, the evening air thick with tension as I eavesdropped on her conversation with Asher. The sharpness in her voice cut through the quiet like a knife. She was poised to tell him to chase me away, and the weight of her words pressed heavily on my chest. Anger simmered within me, but I took a deep breath and slipped away to the sanctuary of my room, my heart pounding like a wild drum. I needed to reach out to Enzo; I had to understand what kind of hold he had over her that would drive her to such a drastic decision. It was evident that she had a connection to him that eclipsed mine.

With a burst of frustration, I flung my door open, the wooden panel slamming against the wall in a loud, ferocious thud that echoed through the hallway, a perfect reflection of the inner chaos swirling around me. My heart raced, each beat amplifying the fury that threatened to consume me. I strode across the room with purpose, my boots sinking into th

    Isabella povI stepped out of the ornate horse-drawn carriage and onto the familiar gravel driveway, the soft crunch beneath my leather shoes creating a delightful symphony of sound that welcomed me back. The afternoon sunlight filtered through the canopy of trees, casting dappled shadows on the ground, and the fragrance of blooming roses mingled with the earthy scent of fresh-cut grass, wrapping me in the comforting embrace of home. After weeks of my mother’s persistent calls and heartfelt letters, I finally could no longer postpone this visit.As I made my way up the leaf-strewn path, the grand front door swung open with a flourish, revealing my mother's beaming face framed by the intricate woodwork of the doorway. Her eyes shone with joy, and her warm, inviting smile radiated a sense of belonging that made my heart swell with emotion. I instinctively dropped my reticule at my feet and rushed forward, embracing her in a tight, familiar hug that transported me back to childhood days.

    Enzo povI stood frozen at the grand entrance of the pack mansion, the opulent wooden doors looming before me like a barricade to my thoughts. My mind reeled with the unsettling prospect of Isabella spilling our closely guarded secret to Thalia. The weight of my responsibilities pressed heavily on my chest, threatening to suffocate me, and for a harrowing moment, I forgot how to breathe. How could she act with such reckless abandon? Everything I had sacrificed, all the painstaking work I had poured into my role as heir, could come crashing down in an instant because of her thoughtlessness.As I stood there, grappling with the chaos in my mind and desperately trying to regain my composure, I heard the soft, deliberate padding of footsteps behind me—quiet, yet undeniably familiar. I didn’t need to turn around to know it was my father, the formidable pack alpha, whose piercing gaze could see straight through the carefully constructed facade I had built. His hand landed heavily on my shou

    Isabella pov I paced back and forth across my room, the soft carpet cushioning my footsteps as my mind raced with the events that had just unfolded. Why had I blurted out that information to Thalia about Enzo? The words had erupted from me in a moment of anger and frustration, spilling out like an overflowing dam. Now, a wave of regret washed over me, twisting my stomach into tight knots of unease.I replayed the conversation in my mind, dissecting each word as if I could somehow rewind time. I shouldn't have screamed at her like that. I shouldn't have threatened her. What was I thinking? My feet continued their restless journey across the room, each step echoing with the weight of my own doubts and insecurities. The walls felt like they were closing in, suffocating me with the consequences of my outburst.Just as the suffocating silence began to settle in, the door creaked open behind me, and I knew without turning around that it was Asher. His presence filled the room like a warm b

    Thalia povI flung myself onto the couch, the worn cushions releasing a soft groan as they absorbed my weight. The fabric was faded, a mix of colors long muted by countless afternoons spent lounging. My gaze swept across the room, landing on the remote control lying just out of reach on the opposite couch, its presence a teasing reminder of my immediate goal. With an exaggerated sigh, I pushed myself up and trudged over, deliberately plopping down on the adjacent couch with more force than necessary, as if my frustration alone could change the situationReaching for the remote, I pressed the power button with impatience. The TV flickered to life, but instead of the familiar glow of my go-to channel, the screen danced momentarily before plunging into darkness. A wave of irritation washed over me, and I muttered a quiet curse, feeling the knot of frustration tighten in my stomach.“What the...?” I exclaimed, my fingers jabbing at the buttons in a futile attempt to coax it back to life.

    Isabella pov I sprinted through the dense woods, the early morning sunlight filtering through the canopy of leaves, casting dappled patterns on the forest floor and creating a mosaic of light and shadow. My heart raced in my chest, not only from the exertion of my hurried escape but also from the suffocating weight of the secrets and lies that clung to me like a second skin. Rufus remained blissfully unaware of my departure, engrossed in his own world, but I knew that Asher wouldn’t be so easily deceived. I had to reach the pack house before he initiated a search for me. The rustling of leaves and the sharp crack of twigs under my feet abruptly reminded me of my presence in this unforgiving terrain. My gown, a flowing white dress adorned with intricate lace details, was woefully unsuitable for this reckless flight, but the urgency of the moment drowned out my discomfort. I gripped the fabric tightly, lifting it to avoid entangling it in the underbrush while keeping my focus fixed a

    Isabella povAs we stepped outside into the refreshing evening air, the sky above us was a stunning canvas of orange and pink, streaked with wispy clouds that caught the last rays of the descending sun. Rufus fell into step beside me, his long legs effortlessly covering the ground as we made our way toward the sprawling main house, its silhouette darkening against the vibrant twilight."You know," he said, amusement glinting in his bright eyes, "for someone who's new to this, you held your own back there."I shot him a sidelong look, an eyebrow arched in playful disbelief. "Gee, thanks! I’ll make sure to add 'archery skills' to my resume, right alongside 'expert swordswoman' and 'master of stealth’."Rufus let out a warm chuckle, his laughter rich and inviting as it echoed in the quiet of the evening. "You've got a sharp tongue, Isabella. I'll give you that."We fell into a comfortable silence for a moment, the only sound accompanying us being the crunch of gravel beneath our boots as

    Asher povI grasped the bottle from Mason's hand, the heavy glass feeling like a weight pressing down on my conscience. The reality of what we had done settled in my gut, roiling like a toxic concoction. With a weary sigh, I tipped back the bottle and took a deep swig, the fiery burn of the liquor washing over my throat, momentarily dulling the anguish gnawing at me. Across the room, Demian sat hunched on the couch, his posture defeated, his gaze fixed vacantly on the worn wooden floor."We need to find a way to bring her back," I declared, my voice steady and resolved despite the turmoil inside.Mason, his eyes bloodshot and lacking their usual spark, raised an incredulous eyebrow. "And how exactly do you plan to do that, Asher? We really messed things up this time."Setting the bottle down on the scratched coffee table, I let my thoughts race through potential options. "First, we need to figure out where she’s gone. Does anyone have a lead or know someone who might?"Demian, lifting

    Enzo povI fixed my gaze on the blundering idiot standing before me, my anger simmering just below the surface like a pot of water poised to boil over. "Just shut up!" I snapped, the words exploding from my throat like a volley of sharp arrows. He was regurgitating the same tired excuses about his earlier mistakes, half-heartedly claiming he'd tried to ask others for help but had only gotten snarled at in return.My hands shook slightly as I fidgeted with the crumpled cigarette pack in my pocket, the familiar craving for nicotine eclipsed by the mounting frustration boiling inside me. "I've had enough of this," I muttered to myself, though the real issue wasn't merely my dependence on cigarettes; it was the glaring incompetence standing right before me.I stood up abruptly, the chair screeching against the wooden floor as I pushed it back with a forceful motion. Striding purposefully toward the corner cupboard, I swung the door open with a determined pull and tossed the cigarette pack
