Previously
" Is he your's? I questioned Antonio while stroking the dog. "Isabella be carefull".Jeremy said worried. I stroked the dog under the dog's chin and the dog bit me and then everything went black.
Now
I woke in a Umm .....a cage? Swet dripping from my weak, frail body. I slowky started to sit up and saw Jeremy looking at be even more worried then he seemed before I blacked out wait why did I black out?
All of a sudden the most deadlines pain Hit me it was like every bone In my body was breaking one by one.My screams echoed through the dark room.
"Don't fight it." Jeremy told me
I was confused of what Jermany ment. Did he mean fight through through pain?
PRESENT
Me and Elana are currently sitting in logans office talking to him.
"So what happened last night" He asked looking at the both of us.
"It's happened last night....it almost happened in frount of Philip" Elana answered.
"Yeah same here I almost did it in front of Charlie" I confessed.
"But it didn't right"? Logan asked looking between me and Elana
"We both had to lie to get away " Elana informed him
"It was like my whole body was rioting against me" I told Logan
"We has to change in a alley" Elana told him.
Logan kept quiet for a moment before saying "Well how long did you two go between runs this time"? He questioned us
"37 days" Elana told him looking down
"Are you insane....Isabella"?
"74 days" I replied quickly.
"What's wrong with you the both of you "He said slightly raised his voice.
"I don't know you're the shrink" I muttered
"psychologist" Logan corrected me.
We both looked up at him knowing we shouldn't do that.
"Well the offer still stands if you two want to run with me....I miss running in a pack" Logan said lifting up the mood.
"Okay Logan don't take this term wound way" Elana started sitting forward.
"We love you and we are so greatfull to have you in the city but we don't want to run.....period" I continued.
"We don't want to make a social event out of it" Elana finished.
"Okay. But the both of you have to get on a schedule once a week otherwise this is going to keep on happening you push the change until it finally overtakes you"
(Buzzing noise)
"That's my 11 o'clock"
"We'll clear out thanks" I said while all three of us start to stand up.
"Want to grab a sandwich before you hit the road" Logan asked
I shake my head but Elana grabs two and put them in her bag.
" at least I know that I'm not going to wolf out at Philips award thing tonight his whole family is going to be there" Elana commented.
"Then you're lucky that the change forced itself on you when it did. You as well bells."
"Listen no one's going to judge you two if you went back and dont make it out here.You can always go back home."
"We are home now" I responded with a slight smile and Elana did the same.

"Look at the bisect! Or is that a thigh?" I heard Diane complement Elana out the cafe while I was coming back from the toilets.
I sat down down next to Diane looking at Elana's photo. As Elana was taking a sip from her coffin Diane said" And that,tell me it's gross....who am I kidding I would eat that brownie out of the garbage If I could"
"Or you could have some" I suggested
"I'm on a cleans...you read goop?"
"I don't know what the means" Elana said
"Me neither"
Diane just smiled "When did you get this?"
"Oh six month anniversary present.... I assumed you helped him pick it out" Elana spoke
"No,but apparently my big brother's got some tricks of his own sly dog" Diane stated slightly supperised.
"Wow Philip has actually got some sence of style" I commented with a smirk.
Elana and Diane just smiled at my statement.
"These are perfect" Diane said to a photo.
"Alright I better get going" I said giving both girls a hug before returning back home.
/////
"Ah-h! There bug bro's" Becky said walking towards Philip and Charlie giving them both a hug.
"Oh my God you two are way prettier then Diane described" Becky complimented us.
"You must be Becky" I spoke with a gentle smile while me and Elana gave her a hug.
"Lovely to see you again Isabella,elana" Charlie's mum lied while giving us a fake smile.
"I'm so glad you could make it" Elana politely said.
"Oh ,I've....been going to Charlie and Phillips things since they were born haven't missed one yet I'm so happy you two could make it." Charles mum commented
I gave her a tight smile "of corse"
"Lets get you a drink mother" Diane said
"Sure" She responded
I was listening in on Diane's and her mothers conversation.
"I'm aloud to verify pickup on my sons choices.
"Actually your not clearly they're a grown men"
"They're also my sons and they met the girls on a blind date"
" Yeah set uo by me"
Up to there I stoped listening and payed attention to the siblings.
"I'm good honestly everything's fine,it's just....a lot to do in the next two weeks." Becky said
"If you need any help just let me and Elana know" I told her giving her a little smile Elana doing the same.
"Oh God no mother won't let anyone near any of the preparations" Becky said.
" the only thing you two need to be worrying about is finding a dress" Diane said to me and Elana With her mother beside her.
"Oh I thought i'll just wear this dress" Elana answered
"Same" I replied.
"W..." Charlie's mum said lost for words.
"Of course what we're we thinking we should find something special for the special occasion" I spoke for me and Elana.
"I will sort you two out for tomurow right?" Diane saved us.
" To all the ladies in my life" Philip started.
" Finally together" Charlie continued.
".. we wouldn't want to do this night any other way" Philip finished.
Cling
//////
Everyone was sat down Elana sat next to Philip and me next to Charlie. The two brothers went on stage to collect there award a speech in frount of the audience.
When the boys were half way through the so each Elana's phone stated to vibrate she told me to come out with her. Once she pressed answer she put it on loud speaker.
"How come you didn't call Jeremy back" Logan asked
"We haven't has a chance" Elana came up of an excuse for us.
"A girl was killed by a mutt in Beer valley. Jermany called a meeting. He expects us all to be there. It's a family obligation" Logan explained
"They're not our family anymore so not our obligation" I replied coldly.
"Just call him back you know you have two" Logan said.
There was a slight pause.
"At least meet me and I can tell you what I know" Logan tried reasoning with us .
I thought for a moment and nodded my head.
" Fine. Tomorrow. First thing. Elana said
With that said Elana hung up.
////
We walked through logans frount door to smell
"You really think that we wouldn't smell him on the way in" I rolled my eyes.
"Seriously. I may not be garden fresh but I don't smell that bad" Peter said crushing me and Elana in a hug.
"I missed you kids" He smirked
I rolled my eyes at him.
"Of your here to spring more of this "us" stuff on me and Isabella
Just tell us now"
"No no everyone else is in Stonehaven.I was supposed to start the north American leg of the Neil Young tour instead I'll be heading to the house tomorrow."
"See that's the thing right? We all have our lived here. He expects us to just pack up and rush back.You're....you're just building your client base right?You can't leave them." I said
" Its getting sorted out." Logan answered
"It's not like Jermany is calling us back for a tea party." Peter spoke
" this mutt does anything to shine light on our exsistance,we don't have those lived for much longer." Logan reasoned with us
"Wich mutt killed the girl" Elana asked.
"Jeremy doesn't know he caught the scent but he can't place it" Logan answered
"Well that's easy which ones more pissed of with Clay right now"?
I asked.
"Besides you two" Peter commented
"Clayton is reason enough foe us not to go back to the pack"
"A girl was killed right outside Stonehaven"
"The pack needs the both of you" Logan told us.
"What about what we need?huh? Our life is here now.Its it's a normal existence where people go the brunch a-and they don't murder to hide their secrets!All we want is to be normal" I exclaimed.
"Sweetheart,that ship sailed years ago " Peter said
////
At sat at the counter saying " What if I come by your office to make sure you're there"
"I'll be there.However,the doors are locked on Sundays,so.. " Charlie's replied.
"How convenient" I responded taking a sip from my mug
" Buzzing me,I'll come dawn and get you" Charlie said giving me a kiss on my cheak.
" I know I wont. P.S.,I know your going to be in a sports bar with Philip with a bear watching football"
" that is not true we're be watching golf" Charlie smirked
"You sure there's nothing I can do to convince you to change your mind and watch me try on dresses" I asked
"Mm nice try they're your best friends" Charlie said picking up his bag heading towards the door.
"For the million things I love about Diane and Elana they're deep deep shopping is definitely not one of them" I confessed
"We'll the fact that you're doing it anyway,because it makes them happy is possibly number one in the million reasons why I love you"
"Seriously? That's number one?" I say
" Yeah....right next to this second"
" you're just trying to convince me that I should do this" I told him
"Is it working" He asked
"No" I replied
(Doorbell ringing)
"Have fun" He said kissing me on the cheak
"Mm-hmm" I responded
"Hi" the girls say Charlie gave them both a hug before leaving.
"Hi" they said huffing me and I did the same not ignoring the fact that Diane was holding a l9ad of dresses and so did Elana.
"So my designer pal hacked me up with a little bit of everything for you two and I made sure they're all be dresses that would meet ,you mothers approval so if the ones that you two are trying in now doesn't work...." Diane said while Elana came out in a stunning light pink dress.
"Wow that one works" Diane commented Elana
"Isabella she me yours" the brunette order me
I came out in a cherry red dress that hung to my body.
"Wow that's wow"
I chuckled at her reacting
"It's beautiful" Elana commented
"Thanks" I replied.
"I think we're done here" Diane said
"Really? The first one?uhh...I found kind of love it" Elana says
"When you find the one you love,you can search all you want and your going to come back to it" Diane says
"I guess we're done with the dresses then" I spoke with a smile
////
"To the first dress" me said Elana said
"Dawn you both looked so good in them"
We all clicked our glasses and took a sip well me answered Elana almost took a sip until we heard two men talking about us.
"20 bucks says I can bang that blound" one man says
"Fine 20 bucks says I can bag the brunette with long hair" the other man says.
Then two cocktails arived and the waitress gives one to Elana one to Diane and one to me.
"We didn't order these" Diane tells the waitress.
"They're courtesy of the gentleman at the bar" tell waitress in for a us.
"They also wanted to give me this" She hands me and Elana a room key.
"Let us handle this I told Diane.
Me and Elana made our way to the men.
"Hello" one said
"Hi" I responded
"So you two got our message"
"We did but you see we're having a really nice drink with our boyfriend's sister"
"Boyfriend " He said
"Lucky guy" the other said to elana
"Let me ask you....the drinks I understand but this" I say gesturing to the keys. " do you two Really think giving us the key to you twos hotel room would work" I said
" nothing ventured"
"Thanks but no thanks" Elana says
I have him a bitter smile before turning around to leave.
"Oh just like that" He said grabbing my arm
That's when I lost it I grabbed his arm and twisted it and a hurtful. Angle making him falling to the floor on his knees.
"Ahh please please I was just joking" the man pleads.
"Isabella let him go people are staring" Elana tells me
////
The tree of us walked down the street when Diane asks "Are you okay"
"Look I'm fine can we just keep this between us three" I asked
"I'm not going to pry but....screw it I'm going to pry" Diane says stopping and so did me and Elana
"What was that? I mean there usually only one reason why woman know that type of self-defence" Diane claimed
"Sometimes it to prevent bad things from happening other times its to prevent those things from happening again" I explained
"They're thing about bad families is that they make it easy to know that you've landed in a good one" Elana stated
"How can you forget about my mother"
"Right" me an Elana say in sync while the three of us start to walk again.
////
I walk into mine and Charlie's empty apartment putting my bag on the counter while looking out the window. I turn around to see Charlie standing behind me smiling.
"Hey" I greeted him
"Hey. I thought you guys would be here" Charlie's, it chuckled
"Uh we went out first a drink" I told him.
"Oh day drinkers. Should I be worried?" He asks
"Oh no need to stage intervention just yet no"
"Are you sure Isabella Danvers because your behaviour has effected me in the following ways: I have now six kids of tea in my kitchen and zero kids of beer in my fridge and I sleep on three sides of our large bed because you take uo most of the room and I cannot remember the last time I brought home a whole Rost chicken and just ate it all" Charlie informed me
"Wow I had no idea what a great effect just had in your life" I smiled
(Message every chime)
Charlie looks at my phone. I will you pick it up
"Home?" He asks
I look at my phone to see that Jeremy texted me saying "Come home"
"Where's home" He asked
I sat down opersite him and say"Jeremy Danvers is a part of my extended family"
"Not one of those foster homes"
"No.real family. Sort of its uh complicated" I replied
"And where the hell were they when you were bouncing around in the system" He asked
"I didn't know they exsisted and they didn't know i exsisted until I was an adult" I told him.
"So that's home"
"Yeah.About 100 miles west from syracuse....but Toronto is my home now,so....look forget it I'm....I'm just ignoring it...." I told him
" They're your family.saying no to family is a slippery slope.call them back." Charlie told me
I picked up my phone saying "okay" I dialled the number.
It rung a few times before someone answered.
"Hello?" I asked through the phone
"It's good to hear your voice little sis" c.ay said through the phone.
I quickly ended the call to see Charlie looking at me.
"Nobody answered I'll try again later" I lied.
He smiled before saying " It's going to be okay"

That's evening I woke up to the sound of howling. I got dressed to meet Logan when i got there Elana was already there.
"Couldn't sleep"
"No you" Elana asked.
"No" I replied
We both looked up to see Logan walking our way.
"Well....this is a pleasant surprise I thought you two didn't want to run with me"
"We're aloud to change our mind" Elana said
"I thought maybe you'd be in Stonehaven by now" I spoke up
"I've got a patient in a tailspin,so I can't get away until tomurow afternoon,but....a meet is a meet.We can't ignore that right?" Logan tells us.
We both not our heads slightly in response.
"Let's go girls"
"We got home resolve this mutt issue,come back to our lives here."
"It's like we're soldiers."Elana resorted.
"We're family"
"In this case it's the same thing" I sighed.
All three of us got ready to change.
After seeing the pain Logan was in we began to change.
Third person
The three wolves began to run past the sea with the wind passing through their soft fur. The two denial wolves seeing another wolf going to attack their friend.Quicly their senses kicked in and starting to charge toward the wolf that was most likely a Rouge. The two felamil wolves began to attack it by shoving their teeth into the Rouge harshly making it whimper pain. This made Logan that was still in wolf form to see the two wolves attacking another wolf. Logan made his way over to the dead wolf then looking at the two denial wolves. However little did the three wolves know that someone was recording the whole thing.
////
The two girls was now in their clothes with one bite in each of theirs back.
"Hey.listen me and Elana have to go." Isabella told Logan.
"Did you sleep" he asked them
"An hour tops" Elana and Isabella replied in sync.
"How your back?" Logan questioned them.
"Oh,It took a good run on us,but it's not a big deal" Elana answered for the both of them.
"So,what excuse you giving Racheal about going back to Stonehaven" Isabella wondered.
"Well,you've just got to make it serious enough so they don't ask quest,and vague enough so you don't get caught up in the details"Logan told us
"Cousin got in a car accident,it's serious that's all we know" Logan came up with a excuse.
"It's just,We've never had a qualify our relationship with you to somebody"Elana says
"We're cousins Rachel never questioned that and in the grand scheme of things,we're related because of what we are. So it's not a total lie."
"I just wish we didn't have to lie to them at all" I said
"Yeah but think,once we're there,we can run free,no questions asked" Logan thought in ten bright side.
"Okay see that's the problem cause the minute that we get there,the questions start clay grilling us on our year away. Nik harassing me. I couldn't possibly tell Charlie about them." I say
"Yeah.Unless you want to put Charlie's life at risk"
"No I'm kidding....we'll sort of. But listen,that Rouge was coming at me.You had my back right?Thats what we do for each other.Thats why Jeremy is calling you both back home. The pack needs you both."
"What if we want out altogether?"Elana asked.
"You both are a werewolf.Untimatley there is no way out" Logan sighed.
"We're both be on the first train" Elana told Logan
He nod his head before telling the girls "it's the right thing to do"
"Yeah"
With that he went and left with girls standing looking in ten sea.

Isabella took a look in the mirror and her injury for last night. Charlie came in the bedroom.
"Hey" Isabella greets her boyfriend.
"Were you on a shoot" he asked his girlfriend.
"Woke up surprised to see you gone."
"Um no I was with Elana and Logan" she told him
"Logan....your therapist?" Charlie questioned confused.
"Uh,Logan's not my therapist.He's my cousin."Isabella said
"Your cousin?"Charlie asked
"Yeah,our family tree is more like a forest.so...."
"Why wouldn't you tell me that from the get-go" Charlie wondered
"I don't like talking about my messed up family.However there was a car accident.One of my cousins was pretty bad,so I should probably go and be with them.They'll need help with the kids." Isabella lied smoothly
"I'm sorry. Go take care of them. Charlie apologised.
"Thank you" Isabella thanked her boyfriend.
"And when you come home,I want to hear about the rest of them."Charlie said.
"Done" the brunette agreed.
////
The two best friends walk through the streets of havenstone.
"Taxi?" A man that was say on a silver car said.
"Yeah" Elana replies while he took both of the girls bags and puts them in a boot.
The two girls look to the side and see a newspaper that says wolfs attacks after a moment they get in the car.
////
Soon the car arrived to the house that made both of their lives Miserable.
The car stopped infrount of the gate.
"Go I'll get the pay" Isabella told her.
Elana got out of the car while The brunette payed the man.
He passed me the bags.
"Thanks" Isabella thanked him
The taxi drawer nodded his head driving away.
I turn towards that gate to see Elana and clay talking.
I walk up to them passing Elana her bag.
"Thanks"
Isabella smiled before turning to see clay.
"Clayton" she says her voice full of hatred.
"Isabella it's nice to see you" he said with a smile
"Wish I could say the same.come on Elana" I say walking indoors
