Isabella POV

The taxi man stopped in front of the road that led to my house.

At first, we didn't know there was a road that led to the house.

But thankfully, the taxi man was able to get help from one of the taxi men that passed us.

Because we got stranded here. I could not carry my box up the mountain. Though I could try. But I needed to be sure there was a road or not.

So I would know how to get my supplies up the mountain.

And I could not call Mr. Bennett and ask him for help because I switc

  • The Warden's Second Chance    Chapter 37 - Not My Real Mother

    Isabella POVWe searched through the box for hours.Papers. Photographs. Letters. Keepsakes.My father's life. My father's secrets.They were all there.I didn't know how much time had passed. The sun had moved across the sky. The shadows had shifted.But I didn't care.I needed to know.---Roman was quiet.He was reading through a stack of papers. His brow was furrowed. His lips were pressed into a thin line.I watched him.He was focused. Intense. Completely absorbed.He looked up."Isabella."I looked up from the papers."What is it?"He was holding a document. He was holding a document. His hands were steady. His eyes were serious."I found something."---I set down the papers I was holding, and walked around the table.I stood beside him."What is it?"He didn't answer.He just handed me the document.I took the paper.It was old. Yellowed and faded. The edges were frayed. But the words wear clear. I read it.My heart stopped.---It was an agreement.A legal document.Betwee

  • The Warden's Second Chance    Chapter 36 - The Truth He Knew

    Isabella POV"I have something to tell you."Roman's voice was quiet. Serious.I looked at him.He was sitting across from me at the kitchen table. His hands were folded. His eyes were steady."The truth that I know."I frowned.Truth?Which truth?I leaned back in my chair. My arms crossed over my chest."What do you mean by the truth?"He licked the bottom of his lips. His tongue darted out. Quick. Nervous."The truth on why I bought your company." He paused. "The reason I bought your company."---I watched him.His right hand twisted in his left. His fingers fidgeted. His knuckles were white.He was nervous.But why was he nervous?He scratched the back of his head with his right hand. Then he looked at me."Like you said, we don't need to tell each other our past or what we are up to."I nodded slowly.That's right.I made those rules. And I would stick to them. Not that I was interested in his little secret. I have already sold the company, so whatever reason he had. It won't ma

  • The Warden's Second Chance    Chapter 35 - My Father's Journal

    Isabella POVI woke up early.The sun was barely rising. The sky was gray. The mountain was quiet.I lay in bed for a moment. Staring at the ceiling.I couldn't understand the changes that Roman wa talking about. How do we save everyone, even if I can't save all. Something was pulling at me.A feeling. A whisper. A memory, maybe or not.But my mind kept going to my father's box.I sat up quickly, nearly falling off the bed.I walked to the closet and pulled out the small wooden box.It was old and worn. The corners were chipped. The lid was scratched.I had taken it from the mansion when I left. I hadn't opened it since.I didn't know why I took it. I didn't know what was inside. Maybe I thought I would need it. Maybe I thought it would help.Maybe I was just holding onto something. But something told me to keep it.Something told me it was important.---I walked back to the bed and sat down. Then placed the box on my lap.I ran my fingers over the lid.My father's initials were car

  • The Warden's Second Chance    Chapter 34 -  Sophia's Fear

    Ethan POVI came home late.The house was dark. The lights were off. The television was silent.I closed the door behind me.The sound echoed through the small space.I walked to the kitchen. I poured myself a glass of water.My hands were still shaking.The mountain scene. Isabella holding the rifle with her cold face. I couldn't get it out of my head.The way she looked at me. The way she held the gun. The way she pulled the trigger.She had changed.She had really changed.I drank the cold water and set the glass down.I walked to the bedroom and met the door was closed. That's new. I pushed it open.---Sophia was sitting on the bed.Her knees were pulled to her chest. Her arms were wrapped around them.She was staring at the wall.Her face was pale. Her eyes were red.She looked... afraid or not. I couldn't pinpoint her emotion. "Sophia?"She didn't respond.I stood there. "Sophia. What's wrong?"She blinked then looked at me. Her eyes widened. Surprised. "Ethan."Her voice

  • The Warden's Second Chance    Chapter 33 -  What He Knows

    Roman POVI woke up before the sun.The cabin was quiet. The fire had burned down to embers. The air was cold.I lay in bed for a moment. Staring at the ceiling.Something was wrong.I felt it in my bones. A vibration. A hum.Faint. Distant, but still there.I sat up.I dressed quickly. I grabbed my jacket and walked outside.---The mountain was quiet.Too quiet.The birds weren't humming. The wind wasn't blowing. The trees were still.I looked toward Isabella's property.A mile away.I could see the smoke from her chimney. Thin. Gray. Rising into the cold air.She was awake.---I slowly walked toward her home. The path was familiar. I had walked it a hundred times. But today, it felt different.Heavier. Darker. Wrong.I reached her house and stopped.The door was closed. The windows were dark.I knocked. Three times. I waited for a few minutes. I was about knocking again when the door opened.Isabella stood there.She looked... disoriented.Her hair was messy. Her eyes were red.

  • The Warden's Second Chance    Chapter 32 - You Don't Know Me Anymore

    Isabella POVI watched him run.His arms were flailing. His legs were pumping. His expensive shoes were slipping on the rocks.He looked ridiculous.His brown suit was torn. His hair was messy. His shoes were covered in dirt.He stumbled down the mountain like a scared animal. He grabbed at trees. He slipped on rocks.He looked pathetic.The man I had loved for four years. The man I had given everything for.He looked ridiculous.I stood there. The rifle still in my hands.The echo of the gunshot still ringing in my ears.My hands were steady. My heart was calm.I had not fired. I had not hurt him, but I had scared of him.Killing him would have been easy.It would have been satisfying. A justice well served. But it would not have been enough.---Death was too quick. Too merciful and kind.Ethan needed to live.He needed to suffer.He needed to watch everything he had taken from me crumble to dust.He needed to feel the pain I had felt.He needed to understand what he had done.Good.
