Isabelle POV

Their pack.

God how did I forget that they have a whole pack?

I nod my head and take a couple of steps back. Sadness leaks from my pores and  I don't bother to try and mask my emotions. "Belle?"

"When are you guys leaving?" I ask, putting on a neutral face. "Belle, you're coming with us. You do know that right?" Sebastian says, closing the distance I put between us. "I can't. I can't. I-I have to protect Cassy."

"Is that the real reason?" I look over to Austin and nod my head, despite all of us knowing that's not why I don't want to go. "Princess, tell me what's going through your pretty little head." He says, walking closer also. He stops beside Sebastian, and reaches for my hand. Sebastian reaches for my other hand. I watch as they both lace my fingers with theirs.

  Their touch calms my body down, but not the thoughts racing through my head. "It's just.. If my pack didn't want me as a pack member.. why would your pack want me as their Luna? I'm a mess, honestly. I mean, I lose my temper when someone tries to hurt others, that's not good. I do not like being told what to do, you both know how that ends. I run from my problems. So am I honestly fit to be a Luna? Let alone the Werewolf Queen?" I rant. They just look at me until I am finished.

"Done?" They ask together, amusement clear in their voice. I huff and try to drop their hands, but they are holding on firmly.

"Honestly, I think all of that is perfect. All of that makes you, you. So take all of those nasty thoughts out of your head, because your perfect." Sebastian says. I drop my head but don't say anything. I'm far from perfect, but they don't know that.

"Hey Cassy, you seen Nathaniel?"

"Yeah, he should be in the library." She responds. "Is everything okay?"

"I'm fine. I just need to talk to him about earlier." I reply back. She nods. I head to the library and knock on the door. "Come in."

I push the door open and meet his eyes. "Alpha Nathaniel." I greet. I turn around to close the door and I see the twins standing there. "I'm not going to do anything stupid. Stay with Cassy." I close the door and I can imagine their faces right now.

"Isabelle. What are you doing here?" Nathaniel asks says clearly showing his surprise.

"Well, sir, I came to apologize. You know, for earlier." I tell him. "I have a temper that I am not proud of, and I really get set off with people telling me what to do. It started around 3 years ago.. Ellie doesn't really like when I wave it off, so she takes control and I let her." By now I'm rambling. "But, I would like to apologize for earlier. I wasn't upset with you, but rather with the command you tried to force me to comply with. I wasn't going to kill you. Hell, I don't think I can hurt you without hurting myself."

He looks at me for a moment, before he speaks. "Why do you say that?"

"Well, Nathaniel, if I hurt you, I hurt Cassy. Cassy gets hurt and Ellie whoops my ass. Not to mention the guilt I would feel." He nods again.

"Well, Isabelle, your apology is accepted. I would also like to apologize for my behavior earlier. I lost my temper as well, and I didn't like the fact that you didn't listen. I'm really sorry. " I shake my head. "All forgiven. Now lets go out there before the twins think I have done anything stupid." We share a laugh and it dies down into us chuckling.

"It's weird really. Them calming me. Ellie is always.. pugnacious. And them calming her is new to me." I chuckle to myself and shake my head. He just gives me a knowing look, that makes me turn a light shade of pink and he laughs. We walk out of the library with him still laughing and me chuckling.

"Belle" I hear Sebastian say once he sees me. They look at us in shock, I guess expecting us to be fighting or tearing at each others neck.

"Hmm?"

"Nothing! Nathan can Isabelle and I go shopping?" Cassy asks, cutting of Sebastian from whatever he was going to say. Nathaniel looks like he is going to say no but she cuts him off. "Please..? She is leaving tomorrow and I want to spend time with her." She pleads with a puppy dog face. I bite back a smile at the scene. "Fine." He turns to me. He opens his mouth to say something to me but I cut him off.

"I will keep an eye on her, and I will keep her safe. You have my word." He seems satisfied with that answer because he nods his head and stalks over to Cassy. "I love you.. and please, be safe." He whispered against her hair, hugging her. She nods her head and they hug a little longer. I turn to the twins. "You need to change. If anybody looks at you in a way I don't like, I will kill them." Austin says.

"I second that." Sebastian adds. I look down at what I have on.  Its my tank top and black shorts I had on earlier today.

"Nope. I'm good. Besides, you two are staying back here with Nathaniel in case something happens." I tell them. They shake their heads and move forward to me. "Belle, we are not leaving you." I huff. I can take care of myself. "Geez." I turn to Cassy. "Are you ready now?" She nods her head. I turn back to the twins. "Are you two ready?"

"Yes, princess." Austin says. "We're taking my truck. It's big enough for all of us, and it will fit all of her bags." "Cool. I have to pee. Cassy, come with me." She gives me a weird look but compiles. She leads me down the hall and to the bathroom. "I don't have to pee, I just wanted to talk to you about something." She nods and gives me all of her attention. It's been eating me all morning. "They're taking me to their pack. I'm not really good around people.. I get overprotective and you know I lose my temper.. My pack.. what if.." I pause. "What if I f**k up? Like mess up really, really bad? I don't think I could leave them, so only logical thing would be for them to reje-"

 "Shut up." I close my mouth. "They are not going to leave you. Get that out of your head. Your perfect for them, and they are perfect for you. Your not going to mess up anything.. okay? So stop thinking about nonsense, and lets go shop!" I nod.

We head back to the twins and she stops me. "Oh, and curse again. This will be the day that I whoop you." I burst out laughing, and she joins in. "I'm serious Belle."

"Yeah, I know. " I tell her.

"Austie, Bastie, lets go." Cassy tells them walking out of the door.

"I told you not to call us that." They whine. I chuckle.

"Austie?? Bastie?? Yes, new names."  I yell walking out behind Cassy.

I hear them groan again from behind me and I smile.
