**ISABELLE**

"Aunt Helen" I say turning around after watching Troy take Xavier away.

"Looks like your mate is going to end up being kidnapped" she says as I get up and hug her "You look very happy honey"

"Thanks, how's Jacob and Danielle?" I ask

"Danielle is pregnant again with number three and Jacob just found his mate" she says smiling "I wanted to come see you about Troy, you guys sure you want to take him now, I mean it must be difficult for his wolf to accept you have guardianship over your best friends son?"

The thing about Aunt Helen is she's always worrying about others, and always making sure people are making clear headed decisions.

"I think he's already fallen in love with him" I hear Elena say behind us. We both turn to see her smiling "Helen it's been so long" I frown as they hug each other. Elena catches on to my frown "Her husband is my brothers best friend"

"How is William?" Aunt Helen asks

"He's well, always talking about Roger and the shit they use to pull back in the day"

"Oh before you walk away from me Izzy honey, come by my place to pick up what you think you guys want to take with you for Troy" she says

"Aunt Helen are you sure you want to do this?" I ask

She sighs "It's what Chelsea would have wanted and the past six months has been hard but when I read her and Vince's will I knew I have to let him go, although I'm her mother, you were like her sister and you've had the hardest time with losing them both more than any of us... You and Troy need each other" we both smile at each other

"I swear I've cried more in the last few hours than I have in my life" I cry out making everyone laugh "They had a letter with their will?" I ask

Aunt Helen nods "I don't want you reading it now but when you and Xavier come around I'll give you all that you need"

"Is his bag inside?" Mary asks holding Quinton in her arms asleep

"Yeah it is bub" aunt Helen smiles "He wanted to stay when you got home" she says turning her attention towards me

As everyone tidied up and went back into the house, I walk over to the gym area beside the guest house when I see Alex walking over.

"Say it"

"Izzy" he says when Samuel and Damien walk in as well. Oh shit! "We love you so much you know we do but"

"We thought we were close" Samuel says I look to Damien who was standing by the punching bag

"We are"

"Then why - why shut us out?" Samuel says. I explained to Damien my side when he came to help me in my time of need. With Samuel and Alex it was happening all over again.

"You couldn't imagine how much pain I was in, your parents trying to keep you from something you want, I had to keep him a secret because I knew they would react that way" I start "I had to leave because I needed to clear my head, I needed to be away from everything that reminded me of him"

Why was I fucking crying?! I'm such a sook! I rub my temples trying to soothe this headache I was feeling

"We could've helped you" Alex says "I'm your twin, I didn't even know Daniel went with Damien when he came to help you"

"He what?" Samuel says then turns to Damien "He went with you?"

Damien shrugged his shoulders "Look, what's done is done... I'm with Xavier and I love him, Daniel is my first love but Xavier is my last and only... Can you guys please just be happy for me? I can tell you are a bit skeptic about him... Well except for Damien" Damien smiles over at me and walks over hugging me
