Isla’s POV
She doesn’t remember me. What happened to her?
“Cora it’s me your sister don’t you remember?” I gasped holding her shoulders and looking into her eyes. There was nothing. She had no recognition of me.
My own sister.
Eric placed a hand on my shoulder and smiled sympathetically.
“How can she not know who I am, but she recognised you as her mate? That doesn’t make any sense to me.” I complained as their pack doctor approached me with a glum look on his face. He scratched the top of his greying hair and let out a heavy sigh.
“Miss Cora has had a nasty hit to the head and make her lose her memory. Unfortunately, we don’t know if it will come back or if it does how soon. It would seem the accident has caused her wolf to retreat.”
His words rang in my head, and I wanted to burst into tears, but I couldn’t. Nothing came out. I was in far too much shock.
If me and Mora had not been arguing, then perhaps none of this would have happened.
“I need to see Max.” I mumbled.
“Yes, I heard that your mate is max the Lycan. A few of our warriors have gone to find him since he is not at his home address.” The doctor continued to say.
“Come back to our pack for a freshen up and rest.” Harry insisted and I took him up on that offer since we had nowhere else to go right now and my sister needed to be kept an eye on.
Mora and the baby had already been taken up to the pack house.
Plus, I doubted that Eric would be happy to leave his newfound mate.
“I just wish that I could see my mate. I miss him so much.” I sighed and gave him a small smile as he gently squeezed my shoulder.
Suddenly a truck pulled up and the door flew open.
“Get your dirty mits off my mate.” a voice roared, and I gasped.
Max.
His scent entered my nostrils, filling every inch of my body with pleasure. I’m so happy to see him that I run to him, throw my arms around his neck as he scooped me up.
He hungrily kissed my cheek and down to my neck where my mark would be.
“I miss you so much and I love you never again will I let you out of my sight,” he whispered into my ear.
I was so happy to have him back with me that I did not notice Ed was standing just a few feet away from us.
“Well, it's good to see you too Isla.” he said causing me to look up in disbelief. I was not expecting to see him so soon.
What was he doing here?
“What is going on?” I asked Max with my eyebrows raised.
“I could ask you the same thing.” he said throwing Harry a a dirty look. Harry put his hands up in the air as if he were surrendering himself.
“Hey, hey, I was just comforting her nothing more than that I mean, beautiful girl and all that but I'm spoken for.”
I rolled my eyes at maxes, unnecessary jealousy, he should know by now that I only had eyes for him.
Nobody else.
“You best, keep it that way too.” Max warned him.
“So, what's going on?” Ed stepped closer breaking the awkwardness.
“Well sir we found each female on our border. It looks like they lost control of the car and crashed. Turns out one of them is my brother’s mate and unfortunately, she is having trouble with her memory since she did not recognise her own sister.”
“Cora?”
Daniel.
He stepped out of the truck, all eyes of somebody on him. Eric let out a growl not liking his make being spoken about.
“Whobare you?” Daniel growled back his eyes turning dark as his wolf started to surface.
“Eric, it's ok. Daniel is our brother.” I quicky shouted, realising Eric thought the worst.
Hearing this, Eric instantly calmed down.
“Well, Cora is my may, and we are l Hearing this, Eric instantly calmed downokimg after her.”
Daniel pushed his wolf back and stoof up straight, studying Eric carefully he shrugged and turned his attention to me turned his attention to me.
“Well, we were headed back to the park, they’ve all been checked over but thought they would be more comfortable there.”
Max stood up straight and I thought that he was not going to be to keen on that idea but surprisingly he agreed.
“What about Cora?” Daniel wanted to know turning to face me.
“I want to see my sister.” he started to say before I could get a word in edgeways.
“I have to get her back up to our pack hospital she needs to rest.” Eric said.
Daniel frowned not liking that but knowing it was best for our sister.
“You are welcome to come as well.” Eric added and Daniel agreed.
I watched them go off togeyejr and turned back to Ed and Max.
“I have something to attend to.” Ed declined the offer, and I furrowed my brow. I had no clue what they were up to, but I was also quite sure that I did not want to know.
“Isla, we need to talk.” Ed said firmly, ignoring Max and looking straight at me.
“About what?” I did not want to talk since I already knew it wasn't going to be good news. I picked up that vibe already.
“It's Miller.” Max butted in causing me to turn my head towards him.
“What's he done now?” I sighed. I had had enough of hearing about Miller.
“He's in the back of that truck and so is your father.” Max gestured to the truck and carried on talking but I was not hearing any more of the words that were spilling out of his mouth.
Miller was here too, and my real dad had my fake dad too.
This was crazy.
“He's giving me Pembroke and I'm giving it too you. Like it should have been.” Ed informed me coming closer and pulling me into a hug.
Pembroke?
I did not want that place, it held far too many bad memories for me.
“What are you talking about?” I exclaimed pushing him away from me and shaking my head in a confused, angry daze.
Max scoffed at my words, and I was surprised by his lack of support.
“You don't want it?” Max snarled and I did not like the way he was talking to me. He had never spoken to me that way before.
“Max.” I growled making it known that I was not happy with him, but he laughed it off like it was no big deal.
“He put you through hell and you aren't even a little grateful that we are getting you back what is rightfully yours.” Max started to shout, his voice getting louder with every word.
“Isla, your mother wants you to have Pembroke and so do I. You are the daughter of an alpha and that's an order.” he insisted.
How could I agree to that when I wanted to be as far from it as possible.
“And what are you planning to do with him and Miller?” I asked the question that was on my mind.
Max stroked his chin and chuckled quietly to himself.
“Miller and that other fool are going to pay for their mistakes.” he looked so sure of that but I did not know how he was planning to go about it other than taking Pembroke from Miller and keeping my ex father out the way by having him dosed up on some poison thing.
“My main concern is making sure that your mother and your siblings are safe from that cretin. He does not deserve to breath. As for Miller, well he is going to lose the one thing that means the most to him.” Ed explained and I could see the smug smirk on Max's face as he spoke.
“In fact, take this idiot and chuck him in your dungeon. I will happily leave him there to die.” Max chuckled causing Harry to pause and look slightly awkward. He did not know if Max was being serious or not.
“Oh, come on old friend. You know you would love to help me out.”
Harry grinned and then laughed along with Max.
“Like old times.”
Old friend?
“How do you know Harry?” I blurted out.
“Does that matter?”
Max glared at me like I was suddenly an inconvenience to him.
What the hell was going on?
