chapter5 Isabelle POV Ellie jumps around in excitement in my head. My wolf connecting with hers. I stare in shock. I cannot believe what I am seeing. I feel tears pool in my eyes and i rapidly blink them back. Her smile falters on her face. I take a few steps back, and allow her to come all the way in. "Y-you know Elizabeth." she states. I look at her confused. "You're her.. right?" She shakes her head and walks over to Alpha Nathaniel. She looks over at me with sadness in her eyes. "I'm Cassandra. You must be talking about Elizabeth.. My twin. I haven't seen her since she found her mate." I look at with more confusion. "I'm Isabelle.. Luna Elizabeth never had a twin. She didn't tell us that.. she didn't tell me that." I whisper quietly. "She found her mate before I found mines.." she stops to take a deep breath. Maybe not to lose her composure. "Beth was 17 when she found him. He was the Alpha of Black Moon. He took her and told her that if she was never to see me again. I haven't seen her since" I froze, and it doesn't go unnoticed. I shake my head and walk back to the wall behind me. No. Ellie, we have to go. This time she says something. What for? We are safe here. No. No we are not. He will come here. For her. She gets quiet. "Alpha Nathaniel... I am going to ask something and I am not meaning to pry, I just want this pack safe.." it has Luna Elizabeth's twin.. He nods his head and I continue. I look at Luna Cassandra. "Has... Has he contacted you?" " Are you talking about Alpha Thomas?"  She nods her head. "I believe he did say he was coming later on sometime this week." I shoot up from my seat and almost shout. "You have to get out of here." She looks at me like I am crazy. "I promise I'm not crazy.. but he is. Let me explain, please." I beg. She nods her head and hugs Alpha Nathaniel tighter than she was before. "Luna Elizabeth died six years ago.. protecting me from rogues." she looks at me like she cannot believe what I saying. "I was 14 at the time.. and w-we were playing hide and seek. She found me a-and she told m-me to run. I didn't know what was  going on until she shifted. There was so many rogues. And she stood protecting me. I mind linked my mother but she didn't believe me." I'm almost crying now. "I-I watched the life leave her eyes as I called for help. When they came , my pack, they blamed me for killing her. I had shifted extremely early.. and my wolf she is a little hard to handle. But I would never. My wolf felt a connection with her. She was like a mother to me.." I stop to take a breath. Wiping the tears that have fell down my face I speak up again. "You have to go. I don't want you hurt. He is going to kill you too. Please, I cannot lose you both." I say. I watch her as she looks at me with disbelief. "D-dead?" she stutters out. I nod my head and I feel Ellie whimpering in my head. "And I know that's a f****d up way to figure out that she is gone but you have to believe me. " I walk closer to her, ignoring the look in Alpha Nathaniel is sending me. I hold out my hand over the desk. She looks at it for a moment and takes it. She trusts me. "Can I talk to you.. alone? Please? It won't be long.. You are the only person I have right now and-and I.." she nods her head. She looks at Alpha Nathaniel and the twins. "Give us a moment.. she won't hurt me. I know that." she says wiping the remaining tears on her face. He goes to object and she gives him a sharp look. "You will give us a moment, and I will not ask again." he looks slightly upset but doesn't go against his Luna. The twins look like they want to object, but the look she is giving all of them makes them walk out of the door, right behind the Alpha. She pulls me over to the couch and we take a seat. "Look.. I know that I can  trust you.. I don't know how but my wolf feels a connection with yours and Nora is saying I can trust you." She says still holding my hand. I take a deep breath and look down at my lap. "One day I was cleaning and I-I was walking by the Alpha's office and he was talking to someone on the p-phone.. " I stand up, dropping her hand and began walking back and forth. "I didn't mean to pry, I was going to finish cleaning but I heard Luna Elizabeth's name being mentioned. he told the man that he took care of one of you, and he was going to take care of the other. The Alpha never really wanted her, even though she was his mate. He always wanted you. he said that he tried to get you but you rejected him and that you were going to pay.." I trailed off looking at her. "I remember that.. It was the last day that I saw Beth. He came up to me while Beth was packing and told me that he would rather have me, and that my beauty was better than hers. I slapped him and told him never to say that again and that he was hers'. I left to go to Beth after that. We spent time talking and afterward, he banned her from seeing  me again." she whispered. "I don't know why he took so long to come after you.. but I know that now that he is, you need to go. You are not safe here. I am going to protect you with my life." I walk back over to hear and sink down to the floor. "I couldn't save Luna Elizabeth, but I can save you. Please Luna Cassandra.." I beg her. She nods her head. "Call me Cassandra or Cassy. Okay?" I nod my head. I feel Ellie stir in my head, becoming fully alert. "Someone is here." I say to her and stand. I pull her behind the desk and tell her to duck and stay there. She obliges and crouches behind the desk. I walk over to the window and look out for anything out of the ordinary. I don't know what it is but something doesn't feel right. "Mind link Nathaniel and tell him to check his borders. Something is off." She nods her head and ducks back behind the desk. I hear a whistling sound coming from the right and before I could comprehend what was going on an arrow came through the window and past my shoulders. It hit right where Cassy's head was a few seconds ago. Her head peeps out from the side of the desk. I walk over to the arrow and examine it. It has a weird design on it, and at the point of the arrow, it has some string along with a blinking red light. I immediately drop it and yell for her to run out of the door. She hesitates so I grab her by her arm and push her out of the door. We go tumbling to the floor and everyone looks at us. "GET OFF OF THIS FLOOR, NOW!" I yell at all of them. I can hear the faint beeping of the arrow in the office getting faster and faster. They all run to the stairs and skip steps, at least two or three at a time. Cassy got tangled with them and I lost her going down the stairs. I hear a big blast from behind me and it sends me flying down the stairs. I roll over onto my back and groan from the impact of the floor. I lay there for a second, but the sound of screaming snapped me out of my shock. I get up and look around for Cassandra. I don't see her through the crowd of people running. I ran through the crowd, watching parents help children and warriors heading outside. I find Nathaniel and the twins. "Where is Cassy?" I ask them. They look at each other before looking back at me. "We thought she was with you." I shake my head and turn back around before running back through the crowd. "CASSY?!" I call out running through the crowd. I look around frantically. Ellie. Help me find her.  I feel her becoming more alert. I sniff the air and catch her scent through the other pack members. I follow it until I am in an empty hall. I stop smelling when I hear a scream. I run down the hall to the end and open the door. there is someone holding Cassy by her neck off of the floor, choking her. Her face is pink, almost purple and I feel Ellie surfacing at the sight before us. She lets out a growl and I watch as she moves forward, tearing the man from Cassy. Cassy falls to the floor and begins coughing. She turns back to the rogue before muttering. "I'm going to f*****g kill you." Cassandra POV I got separated from Isabelle on the stairs. I couldn't find her after the blast so I started helping kids get to their parents. I wasn't going to sit there and do nothing. I was walking back over to help more kids when someone grabbed me and covered my mouth and nose. Stopping me from screaming, and by default cutting off my breathing. He took me down an empty hall and into an empty room. I fall to the floor and he closes the door. I crab walk backwards, trying to get enough air into my lungs. He walks over to me and throws me into the wall, causing me to scream. He holds me up to the wall by my throat and I can no longer breathe. I hear a door being opened but I cannot turn my head to see who it is. I fall to the ground once the person rips him off of me, and I began coughing. I look up and see that it's Isabelle.. Well Ellie in this case. She looks over at me, her eyes glowing a light electric blue, and then she turns back to the man. "I'm going to f*****g kill you" she mutters before jumping on him, claws out. She swipes at his stomach, and a loud groan comes from him. She begins hitting his chest, harder with each blow, before reaching back and plunging her hand through his stomach, claws first. I watch in horror, not sure what to do. "Ellie?" I call out to her. She stops and turns to look back at me. She has blood all over her face and her hands. "Come on." I tell her waving my hand. She is still breathing heavy she nods and I watch as her eyes fade from the blue back to her normal amber color. Isabelle looks at me and back to the man Ellie killed. "Fuck." I hear her curse and shakes her head. "Are you okay?" she asks me. I nod and rub on my throat. She nods and comes over to me. She was going to help me up. She looks at her hands and decides against it. Isabelle POV I shake my hands and wipe them against my clothes. Most of the blood came off but some is still there. "Come on, let's get you to Nathaniel." I tell her and she nods her head. I'm ashamed. I don't know why I let Ellie take over. She shouldn't have killed that rogue in front of Cassy. I don't remember her ripping his stomach out.. just where she took him off of her. I keep Cassandra behind me and look for any signs of danger. When I don't find anything, I step out of the room, with her holding on to the back of my shirt. It takes us no time to find Nathaniel and the twins. They run towards us but stop short upon seeing my appearance. I push Cassy to Nathaniel but she seems a bit hesitant. "Go." I say and she goes to him. "Don't leave without Nathaniel." I tell her and she nods her head. I walk out of the door and begin running. I hit the break in the field and the forest and I shift into my wolf. I run faster and faster, until I reach my destination. I shift back into my human form, as naked as the day I was born and I ran into the cave. I get another pair of shorts and a tank top that I have and I go to the stream. Why Ellie?! You didn't have to kill him in front of her! I didn't mean to Belle! I lost control. A growl slips out of me. Lost control? LOST CONTROL? THATS A SORRY EXCUSE ELLIE!  I scream at her. I wash the blood from my hands and I poured some shampoo into my hair. She is quiet until I get done washing off. I'm sorry. I just nod my head, not able to stay mad at her. I'm more ashamed than angry. I should know how to control myself, and not let her slip out all of the time. I put on my black shorts that stop just below the curve of my butt and my tank top, walking back inside the cave to get something to put on my feet. I twig snaps behind me and I whipped around to face the direction that the noise came from. I growl. The twins come stepping out from behind a tree, walking side by side. "Leave." I tell them. They ignore my request and continue to walk towards me. They stop right in front of me before looking me up and down. "What are you wearing?" Austin growls out. I roll my eyes. "Clothes. Why are you here?" He looks at me and then to Sebastian. "Because it looks like you're leaving, and if you are leaving, you are going with us." Sebastian says. I snort and turn around. I hear one of them growl before my arm is being pulled back. Sparks shoot up my arm. My eyes snap to Austin's. "Let. Me. Go." I growl out. "No." I push him away from me and turn back to my cave. Why Moon Goddess, why? I hear footsteps behind me, which means they came in behind me. I hear a gasp of astonishment and turn around. Both of the twins have the funniest expressions painted on their faces. It almost makes a laugh come out of me. Almost. I watch them look around before they look back to me. "How did you find something like this?" Sebastian asks me. I shrug my shoulders. "I just found the cave, everything else I made." I turn around. I don't see what's so special about it. I have a bed of furs that I sleep on. And rocks that I carved to make a small fountain.. But that's nothing. Arms find themselves around my waist from behind and I jump. Austin comes to stand in front of me, and Sebastian is behind me. Austin takes my face in his hands and I try to pull back. "Let me go.." I say, not wanting to feel the sparks coming from the both of them. He shakes his no before pulling my face to face him. I kept my eyes down because I have tears in pooling them. They fall and he wipes them. "Why are you crying?" Austin asks, making Sebastian squeeze me in comfort. "I had a mate before... a-and he-" "Rejected you?" Sebastian asks from behind me. I nod my head and he squeezes me more. I look up at Austin to find that he is already looking at me. They share a look before he looks back down at me. "Good. That means your all mines." they say together making me shiver. They both put their face in the crook of my neck, inhaling my scent. They each place a kiss on my collar bone and pull back before claiming out loud "MINE." I drop my head onto Austin's shoulder. "Say it." Sebastian says pulling my body more into his, his head still in the crook of my neck.. Picking my head up, I watch as Austin's eyes turn a darker shade of its normal color. "We aren't going to leave you, and you will not be leaving us." he tells me. Dammit Ellie, what do I do? … Say it.  She tells me.  They aren't going to leave us Belle.. Just trust me.  I sigh inwardly before looking back at Austin. "Say it Isabelle." They say together, causing me to shudder again. "Yours." I whisper out. Austin closes his eyes and takes a deep breath. When he opens them again, they're black. He grabs my face and looked me straight in the eye. "Only MINE." He growls out. "Only yours." "Good. Now, let's go." Sebastian says, pulling away from my neck. His eyes catch Austin's and he shakes his head. "No. Not tonight." Austin growls. "I want to also, but not now." Sebastian says again. "Fine." he spits out. They both let me go and I stumble forward. They were holding me up. Sebastian catches me from behind and pulls me by my hips back to him.   My butt lands on his front and I freeze. He slowly lets me go and I stand. Heat crawls onto my face and I shake my head. "You both can go back to Alpha Nathaniel and Cassy. They need you more than I do. Protection wise." I say looking back at Austin and Sebastian. They shake their heads and walk forward to me. "We aren't going anywhere Isabelle." Austin says. I raise my eyebrow. "And where will you be staying?" "Here. With you." I turn around, hiding the smile on my face. f*****g rabbits. I get comfortable on my large bed of furs and close my eyes, tired. Both of the twins lay down, one in front of me and one behind me. I peek my eye open and see Sebastian in front of me. He lays my head on his chest and Austin throws his arm around my waist. I close my eyes back and relish in the feel of tingles I never got to experience before. "Goodnight Isabelle." They mumble. I hum and let the darkness consume me.           ,.
