I follow Jared behind as we enter the car and he drives to crystal pack. My mind keeps on screaming at me to tell Jared to go back and call Henry to denounce my assumptions, but I feel stupid If I don’t do anything about the truth. If I continue to keep shut, no one will ever go to look for those twins and the truth will never be known. I have to do this.“Isabel.” I hear Jared call me.“Yes.” I turn to look at him.“About the issue that we are having earlier...”“Can we not just talk about it. I have already told Stephanie my decision about it and it is final. I am not revising my words on it. Let us just focus on the main important thing that is going on right now and try to sort out this issue as fast as possible.” I cut him off.The last thing that I want to do right now is to get emotional. I want to be strong and keep my thoughts in order, this might be the worst mistake that I have ever made in my life but I am willing to go throug
“The results are...”My heart skips a beat. The doctor holds out the white sheet of paper that contains the result, the suspense is driving me nuts. Henry surprisingly snatches the result from the doctor’s hand and reads it to himself.“What does the results say?” Jared asks him with curiosity.“It is positive. Isabel is truly my sister.” Henry says.I release a sigh of relief when I hear this. My assumptions are correct and the results have proven it right. If I had chickened out and denounced it, my life would have remained in the past while the truth will be buried and long forgotten.“I still can’t believe this. How fate has brought each of us together and without knowing that we are one, we developed a good relationship of love and trust. I don’t know this flashed through Isabel’s mind but I am relieved that she found out that she and Theda are the lost twins. At least we will be reunited with each other on the memorial.” Henry says.“The problem is who will reach out to Theda to
“What the hell are you doing here, Isabel?” She asks me instead.Her face doesn’t look so happy to see me here. I wonder if anything might have gone wrong.“I am here to see Theda, I need to speak with her urgently.” I reply and she looks more surprised.“Have you gone nuts, Isabel? Don’t you know that it is not safe to visit Theda while she is still serving her punishment, she might brand you as a traitor and get you caught.” Myra expresses her worries and I nearly roll my eyes.“I am going to be fine. You don’t need to worry about me because I can now handle myself this time around. I just need to see Theda urgently.” I press on.“Seeing Theda will not be easy for you but before I can help you out, you will have to tell me what is going on first and why you want to meet her.” Myra says.I sighs and decide to tell her the truth . “A lot of shitty things have been going on lately. First of all, I have found my wolf...”“Like seriously? I am so happy to hear that, Isabel.” She cuts me
“So what are you deciding on? To join the truth or to continue to wallow in lies.” I say.Theda chuckles in a disoriented manner, “Sorry honey but there is no truth to join. Like I have told you, I do not want to have anything to do with you. And when the time to destroy you comes, I will gladly do that without looking back.”“I will be waiting for your response. I know that there is some good in you, despite the fact that you want to claim to be the villain in this game. I believe in you good heart and I will be waiting for your positive response, you know how to reach me when you are ready.” I say and stand up to leave.“Let me clarify something to you, Isabel Moon. I will never succumb to your wishes. I am not going to change who I am because of a mere assumption from someone who is not even sure of herself. Go away and do not disturb my peace of mind ever again, bitch!”I leave her without saying another word, it will be hard to convince Theda to accept the truth but I will not gi
The only rest I am getting is discussing with Henry and Jared in Henry’s study room. “So how did it go? What was Theda’s reaction to what you said?” Henry asks me.“Same old thing. She remains adamant on following alpha Edward till the end. I have tried in every possible way to convince her but she is not listening to me at all.” I reply.“Is there any other important information that we should know about them. I heard that things are not running smoothly in the pack.” Jared says and I nod.“There is going to be a war soon. Theda told me that Wilford is challenging the current Alpha, I think that they might have something up their sleeves. A lot of chaos are going on and the new alpha is less concerned about it, the pack will be taken from him in no distant time if he continues his nonchalant attitude.” I say.I purposely exclude the part of my encounter with Wilford. I feel that whatever the scores are to be settled will be between me and him on a very good day. If I tell Jared abou
The memorial service ended but the people are unwilling to go. Henry and Kiera left as soon as Jared stepped down the podium, and as for Jared , he just left to his room.I would have followed him if not for the fact that I need to help Stephanie and Jayne to clean up the place. We pack the pictures and go to the attic to drop them where they belong. “Jared looks so pissed off today.” Jayne says to me when we get to the attic.“Who wouldn’t? This is just like reopening one’s memories and bringing the pains back.” I respond.“I know that it wasn’t just about the memorial, something is definitely cooking up between the both of you, but it’s fine if you don’t want to tell me about it. I am only worried about him that’s all. His heart is still fragile and I don’t want him to keep on feeling hurt all the time.” She says.I pick the picture of Alpha Lucio and his family and stare at it again. This is my family - my real family - I lost my parents at once and I was separated from my sibling
“I’m sorry, Jared, I have to go now. Duty is calling.” I tell him. He snorts, “I know that you will choose work over me.”“It is not like that. I -“ I hold back my words, what am I going to say? It is obvious that I just dumped him over my duty to serve the pack. How can I make him understand that I still care about him?“Never mind. This is the same reason why David and Serafina are having issues in their relationship. She always chooses her work over him. Go on then, go and complete your duty.” He says.I sigh and leave him. There is point in trying to make him understand, he will blame me anyways?I arrive at the pack training ground just in time when Serafina and the others are loading the truck to leave.“Hey, you came. I thought that Jared was going to hold you down.” She winks at me and I blush.“How did you know that I was with him?” I ask.“It could tell from your ragged breathing that you were with him. Sorry for the interruption though, the information came to me urgently
He eyes me peculiarly and we head back to the base. The others have returned back with the woman and as it turns out to be, no one else was able to get hold of any of the intrudes. I sigh in relief - at least Wilford’s secret is safe with me and Killian.The woman is still breathing heavily, trying to catch her breath at the moment. Someone hands her glass of water and she gulps it down almost immediately.“What happened to you and how were you attacked by the masked men?” Serafina asks.“I needed some firewood’s to light up my chimney for the morning because of the cold weather when all of a sudden, I was ambushed by them. I had to let out a scream and thankfully, your team came just in time to pursue them. What a pity that they were not caught.” The young woman explains.“Things are going to get spiced up from now henceforth. We are going to double our efforts back to back, the curfew will be taken seriously and at intervals, we will be inspecting the woods. We might find their hide
