The next day I head out and get a huge list of chores. Nick is there and I avoid him the whole time. He steps closer as I read quietly all my chores. I just grab all the cleaning supplies before walking away. Nick yanks me back and squeezes my arm. I feel a bruise coming.
"we may reject you tiny cause your to weak",he says looking at me. I nod as he leans closer.
"okay Nick I wouldn't want to bring you guys down",she says softly. I let her go and my heart clenches. I feel her pain and it sucks. Kayla is strong, beautiful and awesome in bed. When she comes in she has a envelope with paperwork in it. It looks like Isabella is ripping us off. I text the guys and they rush in. Tristan doesn't believe it and Lucas walks out but Caleb and I believe it. We call Bella in and sit.
"I was cleaning the stove did you need something ",she says coming in with cleaning gloves on.
"no now sit and explain this ",I say shoving the papers at her. She looks at them and shrugs not understanding what she is seeing.
"your ripping us off b***h",Caleb growls his fangs coming out as anger fills his face.
"no I'm not I would never do that ",she says looking at him. He gets up and backhands her and she falls from the chair. Kayla starts laughing as Isabella holds her face.
I call guards and order them to take her downstairs to our cells.
"you will be banished to the cell for two months and after that we will reevaluate your crimes".
I watch as the guards grab our mate roughly off the floor and yank her downstairs. Her sobs could be heard the whole time. Nick shrugs and leaves with Kayla. I just sit looking at the paperwork. It looks fake and I call a tech to come look and I also call our financial guy to see if funds were missing.
I was tossed in the cell and hit the floor hard. I cried out in pain as the guard laughed before slamming the door and leaving me alone. I was framed and Nick my once true protector and friend turned on me. I sat down and cried till my tears dried up.
Later I was beaten by the guard cause he said it was the orders from Caleb. I knew he hated me but this is a all new low. I lay gasping as my body hurts and my heart breaks more. Days turn into weeks and I am beaten almost daily by the guards on Caleb's orders.
I get to bathe once a week and barely get food. Finally after a month and a half Alfred comes down and he looks sad.
"oh god Isabella look at you honey ",he says holding the cell bars.
"its fine Alfred how are things going up there? "
He wipes a tear and hands me a bottle of water. I sip it slowly and watch as he looks me over. I look horrible and very bruised.
"that evil b***h set this all up to get your mates. She was slipping Nick and Caleb some vampire drug to make them only believe her. She faked signed orders telling the guards to beat you. Caleb never gave orders to have you hurt. The guys are currently away trying to find her but they will come back in soon. Do you want me to call them",Alfred said looking at me.
"no Alfred I am done I can't be here when they get back please let me go. I need time to think ",I say wiping tears from my bruised cheeks.
He opens the door and I walk out. Once in my room I shower and slip on a long summer dress cause it doesn't hurt as bad as jeans and a shirt. I walk out to the rocky cliff and watch the water crash below.
More tears come as I step closer to the edge.
