Enslaved but Fated to My Alpha
Isla's POV
If these were Adrian's men, I wasn't going to stay around and wait for them to capture me. Heart in my throat, fear pulsing through my veins, I turned to run –
And bumped straight into Martha.
Marth was the motel owner who had helped take care of me after my escape years ago. Now, she was my friend and neighbor.
"Careful now," she said, then took me by the shoulders to help steady me. Even after my running into her, she was still smiling until she saw my face. Then concern washed over hers. "Are you okay? What happened?"
