Tristan had told Isabella that he had fought Victor and gave up because his people had betrayed him, but what he didn't tell her was that there was another reason why he had chosen to leave. That night when Tristan had run away from the pack, from Victor and all that they represented. He had gone straight to a place where no man dared to camp. He had gone to the burial ground, a place where the first Alpha of his bloodline had been buried. That night he had been afraid of the ghosts, not the ones buried in the burial ground but the ones that were deep inside of him.He had gone straight to the tomb stone that was the largest among all the others, there was a symbol carved on the stone and he carried the same symbol on his chest, it had been there as long as he could remember. It was the mark of the curse, and his father had told him all about the mark. Tristan had laid down on the stone as he remembered it all, the pack's betrayal, the shame even the look in Leandros eyes.He had run

Alpha Leclair was shocked to hear her voice. She was the last person he expected to see even though he had prayed on this sick bed everyday that she would come home before he went to join his ancestors. He immediately struggled to get up with Lydia's help and he realized it was actually Isabella and that he wasn't dreaming.He smiled as Isabella walked up to him in three long steps to get to his side. Lydia was smiling seeing father and daughter reunite. Isabella hugged her father. She had missed him so much and just then all the emotions she had been holding inside of her melted and she began to cry. The tears ran down her face but she didn't mind as she was happy to see him again after everything. Her father was just okay holding her in his embrace. “Oh father, I'm sorry I disappointed you” Isabella cried. “I didn't mean for it to have happened that way.”“No my child, I should be sorry. I was too hard on you and I shouldn't have been.” Isabella's father said. “I looked everywher

When Isabella had left her father's presence after the meeting with the elders, she went to meet Tristan to tell him how everything had gone. Tristan was happy for her but there was a look in his eyes that Isabella saw before Tristan had quickly hidden it.That look… Isabella understood it. Now that she had been given the responsibility to lead her people, it made his mind go back to his own pack and the thought of how he had left his pack in the hands of a traitor because he felt that his people had betrayed him.“Tristan, Isabella said, “I know you are thinking about your pack and how this, my being an Alpha changes everything.”“No Isabella,” he said. "There's something I didn't tell you, there's a curse that runs in my bloodline, it's the curse of madness from too much power. I saw it take my grandfather as he allowed the power to control and consume him and that's why I ran”Isabella was just hearing this secret for the first time and she didn't know how to take it, but she coul

On his way back, Tristan could not get his discussion with Isabella out of his head. “What if she was right and he needed to go back and take his rightful position,” he thought. But he was scared, how would he know who will still be loyal, what if his people now saw him as a weakling. They might not understand why he left. Tristan at the end decided to go back and hide to look around and know what was going on at the pack.Leandro went in search of Tristan, his mind filled with different thoughts. What had Tristan been thinking that night? Had he truly left to protect them?, or had it been the only way out?He told himself all those questions weren't necessary now, all he needed to do was to find his Alpha. After walking for hours in the woods, his instincts sharp as he moved. Suddenly he heard a sound like someone was moving through the trees. He instinctively lay low, his senses alert as he brought out his dagger. He heard a faint sound like a twig cracking, he waited patiently an

That night Tristan, Leandro and Seraphina found their way back to the pack. Tristan had told Leandro to make sure he got every letter and evidence he could find on all of Victor's evil plans and bring it to him as proof for the people to see. Leandro immediately left to look for Maya and they both moved quietly, alerting all the warriors who were still very loyal to Tristan as their Alpha and Leandro as their beta. In less than two hours, they had assembled a network of loyal warriors and other loyal pack members. Tristan gave them all the instructions they needed on how to proceed and they followed it to the later as they were all happy that their Alpha was back.By the time Victor and his men returned to the pack, they would be ready for them. Seraphina waited with the potion Incase Victor returned with another vicious beast. Tristan and some of the warriors had camped close to the clearing where he had fought the last time with victor, while Leandro and the other half of the warri
