Isla’s POV The battle unfolded before my eyes, as I ran upstairs. I watched as more of the attackers stepped into the mansion walls with their weapons in their hands. It seemed that Dario had called upon on his men from the human base because I noticed that among those attackers were men far more armed and ready to take down whoever dared to stand in their way.As I ascended up the stairs the sounds of body dropping to the ground filled my ears. A sign the men were already taking action.“Do you think it’s going to work?” Nima’s voice spilled into my mind as I continued to walk.“What is?” I questioned, trying to grasp what she was trying to say.“The plan you have to weaken the cursed blood.”“I know it will. The fact that this idea crawled into my mind means it will work and if it doesn’t we would find another way.”Nima didn’t say any words after and I focused on the hallway ahead of me. I arrived in front of the room where my grandmother was staying with Diane and my baby. I tr
Dario’s POVI walked into the mansion with Isla by my side. Finally, the battle was over.I stared at her as those thoughts settled in my mind. The victorious look in her eyes was not so different from mine. She must have noticed that I was staring at her because she looked my way, and I noticed as tears began to full from her eyes.“We did it!” She said with her lips curved up. “We finally did it!”“You did it!” I said moving close to her. I wrapped my hands around her body, planting a kiss on her forehead. The joy in my heart couldn’t be contained, and right now the only thought on my mind was finally seeing my child—my daughter.My hands which were on Isla uncurled and my eyes swerved in the opposite direction staring at Jonas.“Inform the men to take care of the bodies and clean everywhere up.” Jonas nodded at my reply, after that was said I turned to look at Isla.“Let’s go see our child.” Together, we made our way up the stairs, crossing the bodies that were at the staircase.
Isla’s POVI stood wrapped in Dario’s arms, with my heart racing with excitement.. Dario, had just proposed to me.It all felt surreal like none of it was true and I was leaving in the walls of my imagination, but as I glanced at the sparking gem in my hands. I knew that, this was far from being surreal. It was real and I was going to get married to the man of my dreams.If someone had told me some months back that I would end up with Dario. I would never have believed that person, but here I was today, leaving my dreams.Dario pulled his hands away from me, he placed a soft kiss on my ringed finger, then he moved his hands to my face.“My Luna!” He said softly. I blushed not hiding the fact that I was filled with joy. During that moment, the thought of spilling everything that happened to my parents crossed my mind. I wanted my padre to know that everything turned out fine."Dario,” I called out to him. “I want to tell my parents about us," I said.Dario smiled warmly, his eye
Isla’s POVThe night was quiet. The only sound breaking the stillness of the air was the soft rustle of leaves outside our window. I lay in bed after I had managed to put my daughter to bed, dozing off. Suddenly, a cry pierced the silence, a sound that jolted me awake. My eyes flew open, my heart pounding, and without hesitation, I swung my legs over the side of the bed, my bare feet meeting the cool wooden floor as I rushed towards the nursery. Dario, who had heard the sound of our daughter’s cry, rolled out of bed. He walked behind me, his steps slower than mine.I pushed open the nursery door when I got there. Dario and I had put the nursery in order some days ago. Actually, Dario had done all the work; I just stood there watching him since he wouldn’t let me help.Gliding past the entrance, I felt a surge of warmth fills me at each step. I moved to the crib, which was adorned with soft blankets and stuffed animals. Then I reached for my baby, cradling her gently in my arms."Hush
Five years later. I woke up to the sound of my children's excited voices, their laughter cascading through the air like a warm, familiar embrace. Pulling my eyes open, I gradually focused on my daughter. She was standing really close to me, with her hands crossed behind her back "Mommy, come downstairs! Quick!" she exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. Her hands, which were crossed behind her back, moved forward to touch mine. "Mommy, come on! Quick!" she exclaimed, with a higher pitched tone. I tried to understand my daughter’s sudden need for me to go downstairs. I glanced at the clock on my bedside, and I realized it was just eight in the morning. It was quite early. Very early. I sighed, turning to look at Selene who seemed to have given up. When she saw I wasn’t budging she let go of my hands and headed out of the room. Then she returned few seconds later, with a pretty determined face. “Mom, this is really important.” Not long after she said those words ,
Isla’s POVI sighed as the last of Papa’s subordinates left the room after a hectic meeting. Usually, he would never let me sit through meetings like this.But, as his only child, and since I already had my transformation, I was now allowed to decide on meetings.“Padre, I don’t think we can hold out anymore,” I started, finally voicing out my true thoughts that I had kept during the meeting.“Mio caro, you must remember that the most important part of a battle is in the heart.”“I have sent word to the teams in the cities. They can leave the human matters for now and come back to protect our base. But, if I let the ones here believe they can’t handle it, then they would have lost even before the reinforcements come.”I nodded my head in understanding as his words made sense, but I still couldn’t stop the uneasy feeling in my heart.In the last two weeks, our defences have been broken through twice, and even though we have caught all the invaders, I couldn’t help but feel like more we
Isla’s POVWhen I wake up, I first notice how silent it is everywhere.I have no idea about how much time has passed or what has happened.As though it was timed, the cellar door was pushed open, and I squinted my eyes, adjusting to the light slowly.I sat up the moment I saw him.He is here.He came!“Dario!” I called out, lunging at my godfather's broad and familiar figure.“Tesoro,” Dario groaned as he lifted me up and cradled my body against his. Aside from the relief, I couldn’t help the electricity that I felt from being this close to him.“Are you okay?” he finally asked after a minute.“Hmm, Pete locked me here and told me only one person had the key.”Dario said nothing and silently brought me out of the cellar and into my room.Even though the curtains weren’t drawn, there was still more than enough light, and I smiled as I stared at Dario’s perfect features.While he was my godfather, I could not deny how drawn I had always been to him. Even worse was when my wolf had picke
Dario’s POVThis was it.The worst fuvking mistake of my life.Nothing could have prepared me for this; now that it already happened, it was done.Alfred was gone.“Take me to him,” I ordered as I stormed to where some of my men were, moving things around.“Your Majesty,” they made their customary bow before leading the way inside one of the few buildings that was still standing.I could tell that the battle here had been hard. It was hard enough that Alfred knew he wasn’t going to make it.And he had used the last method of survival that could have housed about ten of them till I got here for his only daughter.His princess.She was one hell of a mouthy princess and definitely the bane of my existence.I had gone from buying her toys to buying her dresses.But, from the day she turned sixteen, I had noticed the difference that my Principessa was growing into one of the most beautiful and alluring females ever.Two months before her 18th birthday, she decided to let me know she wasn’t
