The silence that followed after the door shut was heavier than her mother's words. She stood there with her fist clenched, trying to hold herself together. Then came the faintest rustle behind her. He stepped out from behind the curtain, an unreadable expression on his face...one between anger and disbelief. For a long time, neither of them spoke, and he finally did... "So that's it? They've decided your life without even asking you? " he said, his voice low. " That's how it has always been, decisions made behind closed doors. Alliances, promises, and sacrifices, and now it's my turn to fulfil it." " You're not a property, Isabella," he responded . They can't just take decisions for you concerning your life and freedom just for the benefit of the pack or for whatever reason it is. Her laugh was sharp and, " Tell that to my father. He's the one who needs to hear all that." Isabella's chest aches from holding it all in. The fear, the fight, and the ache of what she was

Silence An awful suffocating silence. Her father finally spoke, breaking the silence. "We will push the process forward. She will cooperate. She must." Her mother whispered, almost pleading. "She's been calm for now. She probably thinks this is something political. Only if she knew it was for her security." Her heart stung, tears staining her eyes. They didn't trust her. They didn't believe she could handle the truth. They weren't protecting her. They were making decisions for her. And even if they were protecting her, what exactly were they protecting her from? Her father sighed heavily. "We'll keep her in the dark a little longer. Once the arrangement is finalized, she'll understand. " Marius hummed sceptically. "I certainly hope so. Because the threat is closer than you do realize." The silence that followed that was heavy yet cold. A truth none of them wanted to face. Her father spoke at last, " Then we move quickly. No more delays. We must ensure that sh

"You may think what you're searching for is the truth, but the truth is far more than what you imagine," he murmured. " It is darker and older. " Her hands shook from fear. " Why are you saying this to me? We've never even met ." " Because you need to stay alive. You're in danger, real danger. And if you keep digging before you're prepared, they will reach you beforei can. " he responded " You're protecting me? " " Trying to" " Why? " There was a long pause. "You'll understand soon. " ISABELLA'S POV Alive. Alive . Alive . Everyone kept telling me the same thing over and over again, that I need to be protected and alive. I ran my fingers through my hair from frustration. Why is this happening to me. I realised that the stranger wasn't warning me our of kindness, neither was he stopping me for my parents' sake, but for some unknown reason, he claims to need me alive. I realised that the stranger wasn't warning me out of kindness, neither was he stopping me for

Later that day, she goes to the back garden to clear head and escape the mansion and everyone for a whille. She just needed to be alone, and she ended up going deeper and further into the forest. The forest closed in around her and the moon hanging low in the night sky with a dim glow. She knew she shouldnt have been out this deep into the woods alone, especially not with the rumors going around and more importantly not when her life was in danger. But after the creepy encounter in the hallway with the creepy figure who tried to make her keep her mouth shut, she needed the air. She needed the space to breathe, to think and not have that unsettling feeling that someone was stalking and listening to her. The night smelled like fresh wood and damp earth. She walked around carefully, a few minutes. Just a few more minutes she said to herself. That was just enough time to clear her mind from the unsual attitude from her parents and the people around her. From the whispers, rumors and some

Sleep wouldn't come no matter how hard i tried. The night seemed to be long and endless. She feared what would come next when she just stayed. Not after the incident at the clearing with the rogues. definetinely not after Rex's warning still echoing in her mind. Those words he said didn't sooth her, they set her nerves on fire. If she stayed, she was trapped between alliances and secrets. If she left the other hand, at least she would get space, distance. She wasn't going to stay put and wait to be served up like a political trophy. Not without putting up a fight. Isabella picked up a few necessities and took three bedsheets and tied it together to look like a long rope and quietly moved through her room. At her window, she paused. She had planned this in detail and nothing was going to stop her. For nights, she studied the guards rotation and she found a loophole. there was about three or four minutes where the guards would move away from their post for the shift in rotation. And t
