Isabella's POV:
It's been three days since Esme and I arrived at the underground after they moved everyone from the church. For the past few hours I have been a cell after Marcos found out that I was Henry's Leland's granddaughter.

Flashback:
I had been sitting with Esme and Kate who was currently bandaging my injured leg when Marcos came storming over. "Get away from her Katelyn! She isn't who we think she is, she's been lying to us! She's Henry Leland's granddaughter!" He said before grabbing me roughly. "Let go of me! I was running away! He was trying to force me to get married!" I lied. Marcos didn't listen, he kept dragging me towards the stairs. "Let go, your hurting me!" I begged. "Shut up Leland, for all we know you've led them straight here" he replied angrily. "I haven't, I promise I haven't" I tried to tell him but he didn't listen. He forced me down the stairs and into the cell area. He then forced me into a cell and locked the door. Esme had been following us and had tried to reason with Marcos but he had threaten to lock her up too if she didn't stop trying to help me.

By now my stitches had broken and my leg was bleeding a lot, all I could do was lie down and try to put pressure on it to stop the bleeding. Katelyn came down a few minutes later and said she was sorry but she couldn't help me now but that didn't mean I could help myself. She was able to push some bandages and a needle and thread through the bars before leaving. I was able to bandage my leg but I couldn't stitch it back up by myself.

I turned to Esme "get out of here, run find Nathaniel and tell him what happened" I told her telepathically. "I won't leave you!" She replied. "Please Esme, go before they hurt you too, get help, I'll be ok, just go!" I said. She nodded and she left to pack her things and leave.
Flashback over
—————————————————————————————————————————————
It's been about four or five hours since Esme left to get Nathaniel. My leg continues to throb in pain but it has at least stopped bleeding. I almost fall asleep when I hear John Proudstar and the others who went on the supply run return. I hear Katelyn telling him what happened and John yelling at Marcos. I hear them coming this way, getting closer and closer before they stop at my cell. I don't move even when I hear the key in the lock turning and the door opening. Katelyn comes running in, medical bag in hand. "We have to move her, so her leg doesn't get any infection" she tells John. "She's better off dead" says Marcos. John looks at him angrily and Marcos leaves.

John carefully carries me out of the cell and upstairs to the area Katelyn has claimed as her medical area. He lays me on the table and Katelyn gets to work. I can barely keep my eyes open but Katelyn asks Lauren to help me to keep me awake. "Need Nathaniel" I mumble. Katelyn looks at me but doesn't say a word as she finishes bandaging my leg.

I can feel Nathaniel in my head telling me they're almost here. "I'll get them to let me leave" I tell him. "Be careful" he says. "I will" I reply before ending the connection. "I can't stay here, not with Marcos trying to hurt me, my things are over by the door, just let me leave and I won't lead anyone here, I promise, please just let me go" I plead looking at John. He nods knowing it wasn't safe for me to stay here. He careful picks me up again and Lauren grabs my things. He carries me downstairs and outside to one of the cars. He drives me to a road about 10 minutes away and Nathaniel follows quietly. He drops me off on the side of the road and drives away.

I sit on the side of the road waiting for Nathaniel, within 2 minutes he pulls up and races over to me. "Isabella! Thank goodness you're ok and you're out of there" he says while carefully picking me up and carrying me to the car. Esme gets out and opens the backseat passage door. Nathaniel careful lays me on the backseat before closing the door and coming around the other side. He gets in and lays my head in his lap. Esme gets into the drivers seat and quickly drives off. It takes about an hour to drive to a hellfire safe house all the while I try to stay awake. Nathaniel keeps whispering soothing things to me, telling me it's going to be ok. A medical team is waiting for us when we arrive and they help to get me out of the car and straight into examination.

Half an hour later I'm cleared and told to rest and do gentle leg exercises. Nathaniel gently lifts me into a wheelchair and wheels me out. He carries me upstairs and uses his powers to bring my wheelchair up behind us. He takes me to my room before leaving me with Esme to help me to get changed. Once changed and freshen up he returns and take me downstairs to see my grandparents and the rest of the hellfire club. He wheels me to the living room where everyone is waiting.

Author's note:
I'm going to leave it on a cliff hanger as to who is waiting for her. How will the meeting go - you'll have to waiting and see next week!
