Santo didn’t like the hostile vibe Sebastien was giving off so he held Isabella and as he did he felt her tremble violently.
Isabella smiled through her frightened reaction and spoke to Sebastien. She looked at him calmly which made him feel even angrier. Who did she think she was playing with?
“You aren’t allowed near me.” She stated calmly even though she was trembling.
Sebastien looked at Isabella then at Santo holding Isabella, he was so angry but he didn’t want to cause a scene.
“Izzy my love, come with me.” Holding out his hand to Isabella.
“You need to leave Sebastien.” Isabella said.
Sebastien tried to grab her arm but Santo stopped him.
“Hey watch yourself mate.” He stated, glaring at Sebastien.
Sebastien glared back at Santo, when Brooke told him that Santo and Isabella were together he couldn’t believe it until she told him to come to Monaco and low and behold here they were together. Ignoring Santo he looked at Izzy.
“Isabella you better come with me now.”
She sighed heavily; Sebastien seemed very agitated. She didn’t want to make him even angry so she tried to get out of Santo’s embrace to calm Sebastien but when that didn’t work she spoke to Sebastien.
“Sebastien please just go.”
Sebastien looked at Santo and spoke to him.
“She belongs to me, she’s mine.” Smiling sadistically at Isabella.
Santo stood there glowering at Sebastien, he was so confused as to why Sebastien was claiming his girlfriend.
“My girlfriend asked you to leave so go, now.” A hint of darkness lacing Santo’s tone.
“This isn’t over.” Sebastien pointed at them.
Sebastien left them alone and Santo could feel Isabella breathing normally again. She covered her face but felt Santo peel her hands away.
“Tesoro?”
Isabella couldn’t trust herself to speak as yet.
“You’re really scared of him aren’t you?”
All she could do was nod fast. Santo pulled her closer, so close that their faces nearly touched. She looked up at him and cursed him for letting her feel so safe in his arms.
Santo felt a connection with her as he looked back at her. He couldn't explain it, he felt her place her hand on his chest. Santo had one hand on her waist and the other was holding her fist in his hand.
“Isabella.”
She couldn't speak, she just stared at him. She could tell he wanted to know more about this situation and she wasn’t sure if she was ready to tell him.
“Uhm.” Isabella babbled.
She merely watched as he leaned in. She didn't like to be vulnerable so she stepped back from Santo.
“I have to go Santo.”
Isabella fled to Stella’s room banging on the door. Stella looked at Izzy, frowning at how frantic and panicked her sister looked.
“Come inside.” She motioned as she closed the door after Izzy came inside the room.
“Isabella what happened?” She asked.
Isabella ran her fingers through her hair, how could Sebastien just show up and how did he know she was here in Monaco.
“Stella Sebastien is here, in Monaco, at this hotel.” Isabella muttered quietly, tears immediately falling down her face as she sat down on the couch, sobbing.
Stella called for Harrison as she sat down next to Izzy and held her, comforting her distraught sister. Harrison came rushing in the room.
“What’s wrong?” He asked.
Before Stella could answer they heard a furious bang on the door.
“Who is it?” Harrison yelled.
“Santo, I know Isabella is in there!” Santo yelled back.
Harrison looked at a shivering Izzy and then his wife, they shared a nod. Harrison went to the door, standing by so Santo couldn’t enter.
“Mate hold on, she needs a moment to gather herself.”
Santo looked at Harrison in bewilderment, how had Sebastien’s presence turned Isabella into a mess?
“Can you at least tell me why Sebastien is claiming my girl as his?” He hissed.
Harrison stepped out of the room, closing the door.
“I cannot tell you the full story as Izzy needs to tell you but Sebastien is obsessed with Izzy and not in a good way.” Harrison said gloomily.
Santo rubbed his face then ran his fingers through his hair, frustrated.
“I have so many questions Harry.”
“I know mate but you just need to be patient, she will tell you. I think just give her some time, yeah.”
“Okay, whatever she needs mate. Call me if you need anything.”
Harrison watched Santo leave then went back into the room. He found Stella sitting on the couch and joined her.
“I gave her a sleeping pill and put her to bed.”
Harrison held his wife tightly.
“She is strong, she will recover.”
Stella leaned her head back, resting it on Harry’s shoulder. She hoped her sister would recover.
