#Chapter24

/"Isabella, what are you doing?/"

Turning around, I see Caroline standing in the doorway. /"Oh, just enjoying the morning./"

She rolls her eyes and takes a seat at the counter. /"Marina should be here soon./"

We relax until the doorbell rings. Thinking it is Marina, I hurry to answer it, but instead I see Sebastian waiting. It was him; he knows that I followed him into the woods. /"Why were you in the forest?/" He asks calmly.

I motion for him to come in but he counters my action by telling me to come outside. Standing on the porch, I begin to feel nervous. /"I saw the rogue./"

/"So you decided to go after it?/"

Swallowing, I nod. /"I wanted to know where it came from, so maybe I could help Eric,/" I lie.

He sighs. /"If you see one again, don't go after it. You could have been killed, and I'm sure my son would not like to come home to a dead mate,/" Sebastian says as he makes his way down the steps.
