Chapter 35: Return to New York
POV Isabella
The gig in Milan was a success, but was it worth the stress in her relationship? Many companies wanted to hire her, but she decided it was unnecessary to sign with any company in Italy. She desired to be in New York and open her modelling school and agency. She must consult with her dad, Alpha Jacob, and Beta Ian when she returns to New York. She mind-link Sophia to ask her about how things were with the Beta. Sophia explained that he seemed stressed out. Isabella became worried about how her relationship with Ian would take shape. Sophia told her she had a surprise for her.
As soon as she stepped off the plane, she felt the heavy tension in the air. She thought that Sophia was coming alone to the airport to pick her up because they had so much to get caught up on. Did Sophia bale out on her? As she looked up, who would she see? Neither brother Ashton nor the love of her life, Beta Ian, stood before her, their eyes burning with anger, confusion, and disappointment.
How will she get out of this mess? Isabella felt the urge to explain. "Ian, I can explain," Isabella began, her voice trembling with worry. But before she could continue, her brother spoke up. "We know, Isabella. We've known from the beginning." We knew your scent. Sophia and you may look identical, but we know your scent.
Time stood still as Isabella realised the truth - her carefully constructed plan had been shattered. The bubble of deception had burst, leaving her exposed and vulnerable.
Will Beta Ian and her still have a chance at love, or has this twist of fate damaged their relationship? Only time would tell, and the challenges ahead would test their passion like never before.
Will their love still have a chance, or has this twist of fate irreparably damaged their relationship? Only time would tell, and the challenges ahead would test their passion like never before. Isabella looked at Beta Ian, all her raw desires evident in her eyes. As their eyes clashed, all the love and emotions surfaced, and they could not help their longing for each other. She ran the short distance between them with outstretched arms.
Isabella’s heart raced as she hugged Beta Ian, feeling her worries melt away in his strong embrace. At that moment, it was as if the world around them had faded into the background, and all that mattered was the connection they shared.
He clung to her like he feared losing her, his grip tight and secure. It was a beautiful and reassuring feeling, knowing that someone cared for her so deeply. She breathed in his familiar scent and felt a sense of calm wash over her. She felt his lips on hers sucking her lips in as he languished her mouth. She could feel the moisture puddle in her core. He licked her lips and sucked her tongue hungrily. When he slowed down, she picked up the pace. To onlookers, they seemed to have forgotten the world existed.
Beta Ian reluctantly released her while planting kisses all over Isabella’s face. He placed his hands around her waist possessively. She turned to see her brother Ashton waiting nearby, grinning. He was the happiest person to see his sister and her Mate back to where they should be. With a joyous smile, he grabbed her tightly and kissed each of her cheeks. He couldn't help but ruffle her hair, teasing her just like he used to.
Now, he had a sister and an extra, meaning Isabella and Sophia. This addition to his family was something he had never expected. However, they led Sophia to believe that she had deceived them. They missed Isabella tremendously. Where Isabella was a softie, Sophia was a guy kind of friend. Everyone loved Isabella because she was the girl who got that Pack, but Sophia commanded respect from the guys. She could wrap three warriors together, creaming them in battle, which was the significant difference between the sisters. This difference was what gave Sophia away. The trio walked out of the airport together, the excitement buzzing. As she spied them getting out of the airport, Sophia opened the car door and jumped on her sister, wrapping her arms tightly around Isabella's neck.
They hugged each other, their bond growing stronger with each passing day. Sophia whispered, "Welcome home, Sis," her voice filled with pure happiness. Ashton, unable to tell the difference between the two, watched with a smile.
As they settled into the car, Isabella couldn't help but wonder what would happen next. Would another challenge present to this Beta and the love she had found with Beta Ian? The thought lingered in her mind, but for now, she was content to be in the present moment, loving Beta with her whole heart
Isabella, Sophia, and Ashton drove away from the airport, ready to embrace the new chapter of their lives. The road ahead might be filled with obstacles and surprises, but they knew they could face anything together.
As the car carried them towards their shared future, Sophia's heart overflowed with gratitude for the love and support of her newfound family. With her sister by her side, she was ready to take on whatever challenges lay ahead.
The story continued, and the journey of the Beta and her loved ones would unravel with every turn of the page. When they reached the Pack House, Sophia and Ashton bid the couple goodbye. Beta Ian lifted his Mate and double-stepped to the top floor of his room. Isabella was excited about what she knew would be an exciting time together. The Beta mind linked the cook and asked that lunch should be brought to their room. He paused to open the door, and he walked his Mate to the bathroom. Isabella loved their bathroom treks and knew what to expect. She giggled as they tumbled into the shower. She could not imagine and wait to see what the Bets had in mind.
