IsabellaI am not looking forward to today, but we have to get it over and done with. Asher wants me to speak to my brother to see if he is telling us the truth. I walk down the stairs on my own, looking back once. Asher smiles warmly and nods.“You got this, babe.” His voice echoes inside my mind and I smile. It still astounds me how much my life has changed since that moment I literally ran into him. It is very dark inside the dungeons, and when the lights come on, Adam squints.He is sitting in the back corner of his cell. He is looking a little better, and according to Lisa, his injuries will all heal. That is why none of us are really believe his story. He looked awful when he arrived at first, but according to Lisa, all of his wounds were superficial. None were life-threatening.“I’m really sorry, Isabella.” He slowly gets up and I roll my eyes. “If I had known …”“Oh, stop bullshitting yourself, Adam. I don’t believe a word that comes out of that filthy mouth of yours. You sure

IsabellaI am actually at a loss for words. I can’t believe the lengths Clair will go to. Of course, she would lie through her teeth, but what she told the council is just way too much. Asher informs them immediately, and they assure him they will follow up.We don’t have much hope though. The council always seem to take my uncle’s word over everyone else’s. It makes Asher wonder what my uncle is holding over them, but that is something he says he will follow up on later. For now, we have other business to deal with.Business that might just prove to the council that my uncle and Clair are lying. Asher and I make our way down the stairs and I note Adam sitting at the far back end of his cell. I can’t help but feel a little vindicated that he has to spend his time in total darkness.After everything he did to me. After everything, they all did to me, they don’t deserve any better treatment. Asher runs through the questions, and I’m not surprised when Adam says he will confirm everythin

IsabellaIt feels so strange to let go of something I never really had. I don’t want the pack. I don’t want to be a part of them. I am happy with what I have. Asher and his pack gave me the home I never had. I was never the one who wanted a title.I just want a peaceful and happy life. And then the nausea really hit me. I throw up for three days straight, unable to keep anything down, and unable to even leave the room. Lisa tries her best to help me, but nothing seems to work. It is on the third morning, while Asher is grinning at me like a goofy puppy that it hits home.“I’m pregnant, aren’t I?” My eyes grow wide. I wasn’t sure if he was happy about it, but he sure looked happy as he nodded.“I smelled it yesterday.” He is happy!“I’m not sure if I am.” I frown, making him frown. “I’m sorry. I just thought we would have more time alone and with everything that is happening …” My voice trails off as I look into his eyes. Asher looks really sad, and I feel like an idiot.“Everything th

Isabella“Is that your final decision?” The councillor frowns. I spent an entire week agonizing over my decision. It’s made, and there is no going back.“Yes. I have no bond with them.” I shrug.“And you don’t want them either?” The councillor looks hopefully at Asher, who just shakes his head.“What are you going to do with them?” I’m not sure if I want to know, but I still ask.“They have chosen Adam as their alpha. It seems they really don’t want to become rogue.” I’m not sure if I’m hurt or impressed. Or I actually might not even care. Sadly, the pack’s choice has an effect on our future. After the councillors’ leave, Asher starts to pace back and forth.“Okay, out with it.” I sigh deeply.“I am a little stunned. It’s a strange feeling.” He turns to look at me for a moment before grinning. “Isabella, you’ve heard some of the rumours about that pack. You don’t believe that they didn’t know what was going on.” He is sounding cryptic and if I was anyone else, I wouldn’t have known wh

IsabellaI sit staring at the council. We are all gathered in Asher’s office, and they just give me an option that I don’t want. The council believes that the only way we can sort the problem out once and for all is for me to claim my pack. Asher is onboard up to the point where they mention that Liam has the right to challenge me if the pack chooses me as their alpha. It is one big mess that I think I am completely done with.“No. I’m done with all of them.” I shake my head. I have a pack. I have a home, and it’s not that. Why do I need to fight for people who don’t lift a finger to fight for me? My mind goes straight to the fact that they said they didn’t know what was going on, but I didn’t believe that.The council leaves without the answer that they wanted. I can’t imagine going there. I can’t imagine facing people who don’t care about me. Asher and I return to his office and I can feel that he wants to say something, but I let him stew about it for a while. I have to stew with i
