The story begins now...
(One Year Later)
Isabey was laid on the bed, she closed her eyes. She wanted to sleep, a peaceful sleep that can set her heart and mind at peace. No matter how hard she tried, she was unable to forget it. The scene where she saw him closed his eyes.
Marcus, why don't you leave me? Why? It's been a year, why do I feel like you are everywhere... Why do I feel like you are alive? I have seen you dead. I have seen you lose your last breath. Why do I feel a burden on my soul? As I am stuck in the same place where I saw you last time. Why do I feel as I left a part of my soul there...
These nightmares are hunting me, this suffering is worse than I ever thought... This is making me go crazy. I will go mad. She closed her eyes to sleep but she saw the same eyes.
His eyes... The pain in his eyes. The blood oozing from his wound. The mark on her neck, it disappeared. It only can mean her mate is dead. No, I can not sleep.
I have to go there... Isabey gets up from her bed. She takes out her clothes from the wardrobe. She tied her hairs in a bun then put on the black hoodie and jeans, she tied the laces of her sneakers. Isabey move towards her room door then opened it carefully. The door opened with a mere creek sound, she came outside of her room. All the lights of the house were off, it was silent. Everyone was sleeping. She moves forwards with measured steps so she didn't wake anyone up... She was sneaking outside. Isabey came downstairs moving towards the front door. She was going to unlock the door when someone grabbed her arm.
"Isabey, again..." Louis look towards her face in the dark. But he can see the disturbing lines on her forehead. She glares at him.
"Where are you going?" He questioned.
"Nowhere, I just want to take some fresh air." She lied.
"Isabey, don't lie to me. I know you are going to that place again..." He said.
"If you know why to bother asking?" She clenched her teeth.
"Isabey, how far will it go? Stop behaving like a maniac." He warned tightening his hold on her arm. She pulled her arm from his grip roughly.
"Don't make me remind you. Did you find my brother? No... He is nowhere to be seen. It's been a year... He was the only family I have but in that stupid attack of yours, I lost him. I don't know if he is alive or not... So better find him. If you would have done some efforts finding him, I wouldn't have been doing this on my own..." She growled looking in his eyes with rage.
"Isabey, that stupid attack made us the strongest werewolf pack in all the history. You are Luna of this pack. This behaviour didn't suit you at all. I am trying to find Reuben, the warriors are still out looking for him. You don't have to sneak out of the house in the midnight like this... or I say you have other reasons to go to that place." He smirked looking in her eyes... She was going to say something when a girl came out from behind Louis.
"Oh, darling... why did you like that? we were having fun..." She put her hand on his shoulder in a sultry way. Isabey raised an eyebrow.
"LUNA!!! Right... I don't know about luna but I am the best warrior of this pack and you know it very well..." Isabey said disgustedly looking towards the girl.
"Have fun Alpha..." She said then opened the door moving out from the house.
"Isabey..." Louis called her but she banged the door on her back, she was fuming with anger. It was so cold outside, the cold wind was making her cheeks and nose red. She was moving towards teh forest. Isabey runs inside the woods in her werewolf speed. She was running and going in one familiar direction she uses to go every night... She stopped in the middle of the woods then changed in her wolf form. She again starts running towards the claimed territory of Louis or she remembered as Black Thunder Pack.
After the attack, she came back in her senses after two weeks. Isabey remembered the first thing was the mark on her neck fading away burning like hell. After that Louis told her that the councilmen came to him, that was the last part fo their plan. When Marcus attacked Louis pack that showed itself as a peaceful pack in the eyes of the council. The council was aware of the attacks on other packs but they didn't know it was Louis. Marcus didn't inform the council before doing an attack on Louis pack so they got a chance to counterattack. Louis told the councilmen that it was Marcus who picked up the fight so he came clean. The territory was gifted to him as his winning of a fight. Now, they were not a rouge pack but a very powerful pack living in the werewolf world. Louis has powers and he killed Marcus, so he has announced the Alpha King and Isabey his Luna Queen. Louis has got everything he wanted but for Isabey...
But everything was changed for her, she didn't feel the same way... The urges for power was fulfilled bit the hopes for love vanished. Why does she even care about love? Why she feels a heartache when she remembers those eyes...
"Where is Reuben?" She asked Louis.
"Isabey, there were so many people dead. Not only there's but ours also... All the warriors came back but I am afraid Reuben didn't... I sent my warriors to search for his dead body. But they found nothing..." He said. Isabey eyes widened with terror and shock.
"What did you said? Do you think he is dead? How can you even think like that!" Isabey grabbed him from the collar? Louis moved her hand away...
"Isabey, are you gone mad? What is this behaviour?" He didn't care about her state. He snapped.
"Louis, it was your responsibility to make sure my brother is fine. How can you be so careless?" She shouted. He put a hand on her mouth then grabbed her from the back of her neck.
"Never talk to me in that tone." He growled. She pushed him away.
"I will find him." He said then he moves out from her room in anger. After that day everything was changed... The light from her soul was extracted at the time she left her mate, the happiness was drenched away from her life when she betrayed him. The scent of honour was evaded with continuous guilt. She was unable to understand her situation. The continuous guilt was eating her up... She didn't know why she feels like that... One constant feeling was that she feels like Marcus is alive.
So, she went to the same place every night to find some unknown things... She didn't know the reason for her lost search but she wants to find something that can give her peace. Isabey stopped when she reached the place. She took deep breathe then shifted back in her wolf.
Isabey starts walking on the barren ground, she saw the burned fence of the training ground that reminds her of the full moon night when she vowed to be a member of this pack when he was at sing in front of her smiling and looking her with all the love on his eyes. He was looking towards her as she means the world to him.
The burned pack house... Isabey moved towards it when she felt something, a presence. There is someone around here, Isabey turns around she glanced all over the area.
"Who is there?" She called but no reply came... Isabey walks towards the woods, she needs to search the area for anything that can help her fins, Reuben. She was doing it for a year but she didn't found anything ever, this place was cleaned as a new slate.
It was nothing remain here but only a burned packhouse and some fences on the grounds. Why did she come here she didn't know but she feels a little less stressed. She ran in the woods, she runs till the pack borders check all the premises then come back here empty-handed. It was her routine... She remains here till the dawn then went back to the pack.
Isabey was going to ran in woods when she again heard something... It is someone here.
"Who the hell is there? Come out. Why hide like a rat?" She ordered. Isabey saw a man coming out from one side of the woods. He is a werewolf. Isabey was very calm and all her attention was son this man. He can be dangerous. He didn't smell like a rouge.
"Who are you?" She said loudly looking towards him cautions...
