Isadora said nothing as she stepped out of her room with Seraphina behind her.
When she came face-to-face with the masculine voice, Seraphina couldn't help but hide behind Isadora's back, and her grip on Isadora's gown tightened.
The man had a fierce look on, with a sword in its sheath. He has a scar on the right side of his face, making him look ugly and scary at the same time.
" Father, what is this about? I thought I told you I needed time to think.." Isadora turned to her father, Alpha Richard who also had a surprise look on, as if he wasn't aware of what was going on.
" I haven't accepted the marriage proposal yet, so why are you in such a hurry to take my daughter away?" Alpha Richard turned to the fierce-looking man.
" The Lycan King is quite impatient. He needs his bride as soon as possible" the man said, his voice raspy and deep at the same time.
" Can you give us some time to think? And moreover, my daughter isn't ready yet. She requires some time to prepare herself for this marriage " Luna Marian chimed in, trying to buy Isadora more time to think things through.
" I am sorry Luna, but I can't leave without her. Your golds and carriage filled with food would be sent to your pack afterward" the fierce-looking man said.
He motioned for two other men like him to carry Isadora to the carriage, which was brought from Dark Holes Pack.
" Please wait… at least, I have to say goodbye to my parents and sisters" Isadora stopped the men from getting any closer to her.
" Sis…" Seraphina was already in tears as Isadora went to give her a hug.
" Always be a good girl and take care of your twin sister, Elara. I will never forget you all. If I am lucky not to be dead after the wedding, I will visit you sporadically" Isadora tightened the hug as a small tear dropped in her eyes.
" Don't say that Sis, no one would kill you okay. Promise me that you will stay alive no matter what, even if it's dangerous in the Dark Holes Pack, make sure you stay alive for us" Seraphina said while Isadora nodded with a small smile.
" I will."
She broke the hug afterward and moved to her mother who was already in tears.
" Mother, stop the tears already, I already promised to stay alive no matter what, so don't cry" Isadora hugged her mother.
She didn't hug her father the Alpha because he turned his face not wanting her gaze to meet him.
" Are you ready to leave?" The fierce-looking man asked and Isadora nodded.
" What about my clothes?"
" You don't need them anymore. New ones have been prepared for you at the Pack house in Dark Holes Pack, so let's go" the man ordered while Isadora followed.
Getting to the entrance door, she turned around unexpectedly, this time, meeting her father's gaze.
He had an unfathomable expression on his face that made it hard for Isabella to read. She continued looking at him until she was out of the Pack house.
" Sis…take care" Elara ran outside the pack house just before Isadora could get into the carriage.
" I will, you too. Take good care of yourselves" Isadora waved one last time before entering into the golden carriage made of gold.
" Aye!!!!" The carrier yelled and almost immediately the two white horses started moving until it was totally out of sight.
Isadora took in a deep breath once they left her Pack's boundary. It just indicated that she no longer belongs there anymore.
After a long ride for hours, the carriage halted, followed by the roaring sounds of the bronze gate being open, only then did it dawn on Isadora that they've finally arrived at the Dark Holes Pack, the most dangerous and fearsome Pack in all of Asia and America.
The carriage entered into the wide field, big enough to be called a Pack.
It kept riding for a few more minutes before finally halting.
" Get down" the fiery-looking man came down from his horse, and afterwards, he opened the curtain of the carriage for Isadora to step out of it.
Afraid of the man, she had to oblige and do as she was asked.
Getting down from the carriage, all the eyes of passersby fell on her as murmurs and whispers filled the air.
Isadora could feel fear creeping into her heart, as her palms became all sweaty and shaky out of fear.
It was as if she was seeing her death right in front of her.
** Poor girl, she will end up like every other brides of the Lycan King
** I hope she survives pass the first day
** Her death is close by already.
All these comments were made by passersby, who were all staring at Isadora with pity-filled eyes.
She could hear them loud and clear, which accelerated the beating of her heart.
It was slamming so hard inside her ribcage, and with each step she took closer to the Pack house, it was as if her death was getting closer to her.
" Walk faster, if you love your legs!" The fiery-looking man wasn't helping matters as he ignited more fear into the poor girl's heart.
As Isadora and the fiery-looking man made their way into the magnanimous building like a castle, they were greeted by the towering stone walls adorned with intricate carvings of intertwining Lycan claws and dragon scales.
They were heading towards the hallway when they came across a woman in her early fifties alongside a young girl with pack's maids and guards behind them.
It was obvious that the woman in her early fifties is the Old Luna because she was wearing a crown which identified her as a part of the royal family.
" Greetings, Old Luna" the fiery-looking man bowed his head and turned around, nudging Isadora to do the same.
" Is she the one?" The Old Luna ignored their greetings and went straight to the point.
" Yes, Old Luna" the fiery-looking man stepped backwards.
" Hey you!" The Old Luna motioned at Isadora to step forward.
" Yes, My Luna" Isadora rushed forward, her head still bowed.
" Rita!" The Old Luna called a woman who rushed forward with a bow.
" Prepare her for the marriage, I want it to take place now! The Lycan King is quite impatient."
