ISABEL'S POV. I kept my head down, pretending to focus on the apple in my hand, but I couldn’t stop my thoughts from wandering and spiraling out of control. Every movement Alpha Leo made caused me to flinch even without being aware of it. Somehow a part of me was still very much on edge, waiting for him to show his real purpose for being here. I kept waiting for him to burst out laughing in my face any moment now and tell me how stupid I was to believe he actually cared what happened to me. Physically I was sitted here but my thoughts were flying every which way, coming up with thousands of questions, none of which I had any answers to. What did he want from me now? Why the sudden shift from torment to... whatever this was? When will he drop this fake act and show his real self? I risk
