Gabriel will continue to take all possible means to get Bella. He wants her to break the curse and makes her become his Luna.
But Bella kept rejecting him, she was stubborn, even though she was Gabriel's mate.
This is unacceptable to Gabriel, so he decided to take drastic measures, to make Bella give in to him.
Gabriel was very furious, but he needed to be patient, he wanted to avoid making Bella angry by doing anything too drastic.
So, Gabriel spent more time on his projects and made himself busy.
He wanted to make Bella his bride, but he also knows how stubborn Bella is.
So, Gabriel decides to ask his father to arrange for Bella a meeting with the head of the pack.
One night, when Bella was sleeping, Gabriel sneaked into her bedroom and put a spell on her.
Then he put a silver necklace around her neck. Thereafter, he put a magic potion in her water. He hoped it works.
In the morning, Bella woke up, completely confused. It is like she was sleeping on the bed with a silver bracelet on her wrist.
Gabriel must have placed them there. She tried to figure out what was happening, but she couldn't remember how she fell asleep, and why did she wear the bracelet?
When Bella went downstairs, she found herself walking through a forest, she wasn't able to control herself when she realized how close the ground was. Suddenly, she landed on a soft pillow under the grass.
Bella was confused, this isn't normal. Then she heard a familiar voice, “Are you awake?”
It sounded so familiar, Bella couldn't help but turn her head and looked at who was talking to her, there was Gabriel's body standing beside her, looking at her with concern.
“Where am I? What happened to me? Where is this?”
“You must be dreaming, sweetheart, I've never seen you looking so confused and panicked.”
“Gabriel, why I'm here with you?”
“I used my ability to take over your body last night and take you home with me. Don't worry, you'll be fine.”
“How can I forget being kidnapped? I don't want anyone to kidnap me again, ever.”
“Don't worry, I won't let anybody hurt you ever again,” Gabriel promises her.
Gabriel starts to feel his powers coming back to him. He needs to keep his abilities hidden from Bella until he becomes a full werewolf, and he wants to have a pure mating with her.
Gabriel knew that Bella was not ready for this yet, so he decides to wait for now. He didn't mean to rush her, either.
But Gabriel did promise himself to never allow anyone to kidnap her ever again.
He didn't even know that Bella didn't know about her past. If she did know, Gabriel is sure that Bella would never agree to his plan of his to marry Bella in the first place.
But since Bella is his mate, he must make her agree to be his wife.
He would protect her and provide her with everything she wants.
Bella didn't understand what he meant by pure mating. Is he going to make a mate from his wolf?
What is this whole mating thing about?
Bella wanted to tell Gabe that she doesn't want to be married to him just because he is Gabriel.
Gabriel's parents had arranged marriages for him. He was forced to take marriage vows when he was a teenager because of a blood feud between the packs of the two countries.
But Gabriel's family was powerful and influential, so it was a considerable deal to them when he agreed to marry a random stranger that he had barely known for a month or so.
Gabriel doubted that it was a mistake or that it might cause a rift between him and Bella.
He was extremely grateful to his parents for arranging the marriage with Bella. He always felt indebted to them.
Bella was really surprised when Gabriel started to talk about mating. She doesn't understand it fully, why does Gabriel want to make her his mate? Did she even meet her match in her life?
She never liked anyone, nor did she meet anyone who loved her deeply enough for marriage.
Is this the reason he wants to marry her? Because he is afraid that she will reject him?
No. Bella is not a weak woman. But she will refuse any mate that is trying to force himself on her.
Gabriel noticed a frowning face on Bella's. He decided that maybe Bella misunderstood what was going on, and he needs to explain to her.
He reached for Bella's hand and caressed it gently.
“Sweetheart, I don't want to force you into something, but I think you should know what is going on.”
“I don't understand anything, just say it quickly,” Bella said.
“Let's sit down first and talk about it,” Gabriel replied as they sat down next to each other on the sofa.
Gabriel took a deep breath then said slowly, “I was born as a werewolf and got cursed to be didn't fate with the woman I fall in love with and failed miserably previously, but I found you, and you're my mate, you can break the curse in me and I love you, Bella, I want you to be my Luna."
Gabriel paused after saying those words and gazed at Bella lovingly.
Bella gasped loudly after hearing what Gabriel has said. How come he was telling her all this before she got married to him?
And how could he still love her, even though she told him so many times that she didn't love him? How can he possibly still love her after everything she has done?
Gabriel continued, “I'm sorry that you can't believe me right now. But one day we will talk again, and I will prove to you how much I love you.”
Bella was silent and was looking at Gabriel with disbelief in her eyes.
She didn't expect that things would go down this way. She thought that she was going to live happily ever after and have a nice and happy relationship with someone else.
She felt so upset and angry that she was unable to hold the tears that were starting to roll down her cheeks.
Gabriel looked at Bella in concern. Was she crying?
Gabriel reached out and wiped her tears away.
“Bella…” Gabriel trailed off while reaching out and stroking Bella's cheek softly.
He knew that Bella didn't understand what he has told her.
