Chapter 2

The next week, Isabela had quit her job, unenrolled Mateo and Elena from school and they were on the road to Beacon Hills. The drive was 36 hours, so it took a couple of days to get there.

Once they arrived at the old family house, everyone got out of the car to stretch their legs. The movers had already bought all of their stuff into the house the day before. All that was left was for the three to unpack their clothes.

"I don't remember it being this big" Mateo gaped at the house as all three of the siblings stood out front with their suitcases

"Yeah" Isabela mumbled, sticking the key into the lock and pushing the door open. The furniture was set up and it looked like someone already lived there

After everyone had unpacked their clothes, they all sat in the living room with Chinese takeout

"So, Derek wants you to teach him how to be an Alpha?" Elena asked, breaking the silence

"Yeah" Isabela nodded "I guess he wants to build a pack" She shrugged

"When are you going to meet him? Can we come?" Mateo asked

"I don't know, probably tomorrow, and no, you can't come" Isabela shook her head with a frown "Besides, after dinner, you both need to go to bed. You have a school tour tomorrow"

Elena let out a loud groan "Seriously? We just got here and we already have to go back to school"

"You don't start until next week" Isabela rolled her eyes

"I just don't want to talk to people" Mateo said, shoving noddles in his mouth

The next day, Isabela decided to go meet Derek who was living in an abandoned warehouse with a rusted train

"Derek?" Isabela called out, holding onto the sleeves of her black leather jacket, her heeled boots clicked on the ground, echoing through the warehouse "Derek!"

A teenage boy emerged from the shadows with Derek "Hey, Bella" Derek said "This is Issac"

"Hi, Issac" Isabela smiled softly to the boy, immediately sensing he was a new werewolf, before turning to Derek "What do I need to be here for? Seems like you already getting the hang of the whole Alpha thing"

Derek rolled his eyes "I don't know how to-"

Isabela held up her hand, cutting him off "Hang on, let me stop you for a second. Kid, how old are you?"

"I'm uh- I'm 16" Issacs responded, fiddling with his hands

"16?!" Isabela replied in shock "Oh, my god. Derek, what the fuck? He's a child!"

"He knew about the consequences-"

"Any teenager would say yes to having that much power. How stupid could you be? Is this what you wanted me here for? To help you build a bigger pack?" Isabela began to raise her voice, not missing how anxious Issac looked

"Bella, his dad hit him! I saved him" Derek yelled back, Issac walked back into the beat up train

"Saved him?" Isabela laugh sarcastically "Yeah, okay. Saving him would include telling the police, not turning him into a werewolf? How many others are there?"

Derek looked down at his feet, Isabela seemed to be the only one who could make Derek feel bad about the things he's done "There's one more"
