“You think changing places where I stay would help you to stop Lucias from finding me?”
This woman is being ridiculously stupid here and I have no idea why all these stupid rogues are working according to what she says. She’s no one here… but why? As soon as she got to know that Lucias‘ men were looking for rogues and about to find us, she forced me to leave with her and now she had taken me to another area that I’ve never seen before. For the past year, how much did she get to know about the hiding locations of rogues and how did she manage to join them? That’s the biggest question in my head at this point but I know that I will not get answers for those questions in my head and I shouldn’t think about this anymore.
“Yes, I can stop him from finding you. I won’t let him find you. I won’t let you two get together again!” I sighed and rolled my eyes at Isabella who’s so dumb.
If she lets me go now, I won’t tell Lucias anything to about her but she keeps doing this. I have to treat her in the same way when Lucias found me. Without asking. anything anymore, I stared out of the window where I could only see the tall trees. and fog. I can say one thing and it’s that the place we are in is not normal. It’s dangerous and I have no idea what kind of creatures are living outside. I’m not scared thinking Isabella would do something terrible to me but I’m scared to be alone in this forest. Looking at this creepy forest, I couldn’t help but think about what happened that day.
I’m glad that Lucias found me. I’ve never known that kind of creatures who can shift into the person we love to see exists. Nature is scarier than I ever knew and expected. I looked away from the window and looked at Isabella, I hope Lucias can. find me soon. I can rest assured if he finds me soon. It’s been a week already and he’s not here for me yet. I don’t know how they are and I don’t know if Luan is- okay. I know that Lucias will eventually find the woman who’s with him isn’t me. We feel each other and we can find the differences between each other. Maybe he had already figured it out. I shouldn’t be worried about anything and I should trust him. He will come to get me and my daughter. Just don’t overthink and I will be
fine.
“Are you daydreaming thinking that he would find you in a place like this?”
Suddenly Isabella’s mockery stopped me from thinking further. I looked at her. She’s been keeping me locked in a room for a week now. All she did was trying to ruin my emotions and my feelings that I have towards Lucais by saying notorious

things but that won’t help at all. I know Lucias more than she does. I’ve
experienced both his love and cruelty while she only experienced his cruelty so I know what kind of man he is more than she docs.
“I don’t know… let’s see if he can find me.” I simply said without bringing myself to argue with her or talk with her about anything else. I felt her staring at me but I completely ignored her. After a while, she left the room shutting the door with a loud bang. What a relief… if she didn’t make Lucias and I break up, she wouldn’t have to go through something like this.
She’s blinded by hatred and revenge. I know that what Lucias did to her is terrible. He’s really… he just really gave her such a vicious punishment and got his revenge on her in a heartless way. I’m not saying that Lucias is right about it but everything happened because she became selfish and heartless to break us apart and get Lucias for herself knowing that I’m his mate. Which man would show interest towards a woman who’s not his mate, most importantly when his mate is there for him. Isabella, you started everything and that’s all I have to tell you. With that, I shook the thoughts in my head away and sighed. Elena is sleeping after having her little tummy filled with milk. She lives stress free but I feel that sometimes she’s looking for Lucias.
Her eyes travel all over the room as if she was looking for someone and there’s not need to think twice because she only looks for Lucias. He always stayed at her sight and she was so used to him. And now his absence must be making her feel upset. “Daddy will come to get us soon” I mumbled, k*ssing her forehead gently. Let us wait for him… I walked towards the window and watched out of it again. The forest is beautiful, although it looks gloomy, dangerous and creepy, I have to say that it’s beautiful. I can watch this for so long but it makes my heart feel weird. It feels like a curiosity to know what’s beyond these trees and what this forest will lead me to.
No… I shouldn’t think about it. Why am I so crazy? I sighed and left the window as I entered the washroom wanting to have a shower. I’m like a prisoner but for some reason, I have everything I need. Prisoners would not have everything they need. Sometimes I feel that Isabella is
because of the fear she held he everything I need to live as a woman
Lucias. Urgh… stop thinking… you’ve thought
too much already. I blamed myself as I turned on the shower.
I was sleeping but because of the loud sound of a scream, I jolted awake. I sat up on the bed and looked towards the door not knowing who screamed like that. Most importantly what happened? My heart began to thump in my chest harder and faster. I glanced at Elena but she was sleeping as if the sound didn’t affect her. I’m

glad that she didn’t wake up because of that scream. I got up from the bed and went near the door as I raised my hand to knock because I wanted to know what’s happening outside. Did Lucias come? Or did his men find the location?
I left one of my earrings on the ground so Lucias could find me and he would know that I was there. Did he find me? A blissful hope appeared in my chest and I let out a deep sigh in relief. Finally… finally I can go home. I thought. I hurried and wore my housecoat and gently picked up Elena covering her with a thick fabric so she would not feel cold when I went outside. My heart was impatient, beating against my chest crazily. I chewed my bottom l*p preventing myself from becoming so excited and impatient but that didn’t help at all.
The screams continued and I have no idea what’s happening but the smell of blood soon covered my nose making my heart skip a beat. Is he killing all the rogues here? Did he find Isabella? I know that he must be so angry and he’s going to kill all these people for kidnapping me and supporting Isabella’s crimes but why don’t he just come and get me before he punishes these people. Suddenly the door. of the room opened and my heart raced in my chest hoping to see Lucias but my hopes shattered into pieces when I saw Isabella. She stared at me for a while and then looked somewhere out of the room. Is she going to take me somewhere else again? No! I’m not leaving! I will wait here for Lucias.
“Need to go… hurry up!” She sounded so scared. I know the only thing that can scare her is Lucias‘ arrival.
“No! Lucias is here, isn’t he? I’m waiting for him” I said strictly. My words made Isabella press her l*ps together. She came to me and grabbed me from my hand. Her l*ps are trembling.
“Not your f**king Lucias but wendigos! If you want to die, you can f**king stay here you dumb b*tch! Or if you don’t believe me you can go out and see the wendigos yourself but I’m leaving! Either you follow me or not, depending on you!” She hissed at me. What? Wendigos? How am I going to trust her? What if she’s lying to me? Isabella stared at me for a moment and growled as she snatched Elena from me.
“Give her! Give her back!” I almost screamed. What is she doing? My baby….
“Then follow me!” Isabella demanded as she ran out of the room. I was completely stunned. Even if it’s Lucias, I can’t stay here when Isabella takes my baby away. It came out of the room and followed Isabella, as I followed her I heard a hungry graunt of a creature… that sound stunned me. She… she was right… Those are wendigos. My mind went numb and I caught up with Isabella.
Chapter 47
“Where are we going?” I asked her, taking Elena from her. “I don’t know either!” Isabella whispered as she took me out of the place where we were staying and now we are in the middle of this creepy forest, at night… standing alone without any protection.

“Do you know this forest?” I asked her again. She glared at me with annoyance and anger before gritting her teeth at me.
“I don’t f**king know! Don’t ask me questions., you are such an annoying woman. I don’t know what Lucias sees in you!” She insulted me once again but I kept my mouth shut because arguing with her would give us nothing. We both need to save ourselves from those creatures and have to find somewhere safe until the morning.
“Follow me…” Isabella said as she hurried her steps towards a direction. I don’t know whether I should follow her or not but right now I’m helpless. I have to save myself and my baby. I looked back once again before hurrying myself after Isabella. I don’t know what’s going to happen to us. I was scared to get alone in this forest and now it has already happened. We are escaping from wendigos but I don’t know what we will have to face while escaping. Other kinds of creatures? Kinds of terrible and dangerous creatures who devour flesh? I’m scared…
