Defending Broken Isles Novels & Stories

It was clear that the pack had put up a fight, but it hadn't been enough. Walking through the ruins, I felt a sense of sadness wash over me. Isla had grown up in this pack, and she knew every corner of it. But now, it was unrecognisable. The once beautiful gardens were now overgrown with weeds, and the once-bustling meeting hall was now just a pile of rubble. What a shame it had come to such a terrifying end for all those lost lives.

“You're going to break yourself if you continue to keep it inside.” Cecilia turned, her eyes glinting with held-back feelings. “They turned their backs on me, Annie. My family, my pack. They threw me out like I was nothing.” Her voice trembled, and she collapsed onto a nearby chair, cradling her head in her hands. "How can I recover from that?" Annie crouched down next to her, gently resting a reassuring hand on her arm. "You are among the powerful wolves I have come across." And you’re not alone on this. You have me.”

She probably wouldn't have gone as far as severing the mate bond if there had been anything worth fighting over. After the call, Kaden slipped into deep despair. His mind flew back to her haunting words. "I will walk away and never come back if you ever betray our mate bond." At the time, Kaden had merely uttered with a smile, "You can run, but you can never hide from me. I have the power to shut down the entire territory, and that includes every human airport and train station. So long as you walk this earth as Seraphina, I will never let you leave me."

I looked up at the sky, at the vastness that made all our struggles seem both insignificant and achingly important. “Because not choosing is still a choice,” I said. “And I won’t let fear make it for me.” The fault lines beneath Ravenwood continued to shift. But now, we were no longer pretending they weren’t there. We were learning how to stand on broken ground without letting it swallow us whole.

The legal argument continues—terms, signatures, deadlines—but they're standing on the wrong battlefield. The deed isn't the objective. The document isn't the trap. The island itself is the vault. And the demolition crew isn't here to destroy it. They're here to extract it. I move into Isla’s personal space, lowering my voice so only she can hear over the wind. "Isla. The drilling rigs." She glances at me, sharp. "What about them?" "They're not demolition. They're extraction." "Extracting what?" I hand her the scope, pointing toward the north face. "Heat signature. Server cooling. Hale built something inside the cliff."

Hello Lovelies. From here the part two of this book SHATTERED YET STRONG will begin. It is the story of Gabriel and Louis.

Also, this book mentions the triggers of rape, assault and heartbreak. I would suggest if it isn't your cup of tea, you may leave it here. Tabby Chapter 1. Letting the Pain out...

Everyone of us is broken in one way or the other. We just find a way, a thing or a person that glues us together. And sometimes, we don’t even find that so we learn to live with our broken parts and wait for that day when they will stop hurting. ~ A. Gupta Violet

Orion says. "Adrian was right, I'm weak. I'm not a dominant, I should have just stayed a submissive and become his slave. It was so easy for him to break me, if I was strong I'd still be fighting." "You are fighting. Being here is you fighting. What Adrian did to you would have broken anybody." "He didn't break Damian. Damian's fine, he's strong. He's a dominant, not me." "He didn't try to break Damian. He wanted Damian to feel good whereas he hurt you with the purpose of breaking you."

There was nothing as a single noise and when Estelle looked away from the large island she was seeing before her, she gasped seeing half of her body still deep from her waist down inside the water and she immediately swam out of it but as she reached shore, a groan left her throats at the wenching pain in her leg. It was later that she realized her left leg was broken and a tear fell off her eyes. The water current was just too much and with the way it had sucked her underneath it the other time, it was normal that she was somehow going to get injured but she had just not expected a broken leg!
