Are you feeling better?George asked softly, his throat clenched

George remained silent, getting no response

The girl in his arms suddenly shifted her head, turning from facedown to resting her face against his stomach. George quietly sighed in relief

Only then did he dare to look down at her

Carefully, he brushed the hair away from her face and saw that her eyes were closed, her breathing steady -she was clearly falling asleep

So, he stayed still and served as her pillow

As her breathing grew deeper and more regular, George’s tense body gradually relaxed. He gazed at her peaceful sleeping face, his eyes softening, and smiled gently

He watched her sleep

Isabelle slept for a little over an hour before waking up. She had slept relatively well, but not deeply, after dreaming of Storm Shadow

When Isabelle opened her eyes, her mind was blank for a moment until she heard George’s concerned voice above her. He asked, Did you have a nightmare?” 

Isabelle didn’t respond immediately. After a moment, she asked, Did you stay here last night?Her tone was neutral, as it usually was

George replied, Yes.” 

Did you sleep at all?Isabelle continued

No,George said

Isabelle moved off his lap and returned her head to the pillow. She turned her back to him and said, Get some sleep.” 

I should probably go to the other room,George suggested

Stop being so fussy,Isabelle murmured with her eyes closed

Finally, George took off his shoes and lay down on the bed, still dressed

George had just closed his eyes when he heard Isabelle speak, I have a friend in Dark Shadow. His name is Storm Shadow.” 

He looked at the back of her head in surprise

He hadn’t expected her to bring up Dark Shadow, much less that she had a friend there. And a close one at 

that

More importantly, that person was from the Shadow Team

Finished 

Isabelle, Storm Shadow, and that genius assassin, Blood Shadowthere was clearly a connection among 

the three

Before George could think further, Isabelle continued, He has twin younger brothers. It’s Joshua and that impostor.” 

George knew the fake Joshua was a member of Dark Shadow, but what was the relationship between Storm Shadow and the fake Joshua? Were both brothers in Dark Shadow

No wonder she was so mad, but she still let the fake Joshua go

George couldn’t help but ask, Your relationship with him, is it like the one you have with Yves and Jim?” 

Isabelle paused for a moment before she answered, More than that.” 

Could it be closer than her relationship with Yves and Jim

I’ve known him longer than I’ve known Yves and Jim,Isabelle said. Actually, it was much longer

George instinctively thought, Did this assassin named Storm Shadow teach her those combat skills

While George was pondering, Isabelle, who had been lying with her back to him, turned to face him but didn’t open her eyes

Her breath was close to his. It might have been unintentional, but George felt comforted by her proximity

So, he asked, And the real Joshua?” 

He had already guessed most of what had happened

Isabelle said, His twin brother killed him.” 

Joshua was killed by his sibling. No wonder she had such a strong reaction

George asked, He doesn’t know, does he?” 

Isabelle replied, No.” 

What about Storm Shadow? Does he know?George wondered if she was planning to see Storm Shadow 

next

He died,Isabelle said

Her eyes remained closed

George looked at her, knowing that her inner turmoil didn’t match her calm demeanour. Despite his possessive nature, George wouldn’t be jealous of a dead man

He didn’t ask further questions but held her hand in a silent gesture of comfort

Not being jealous didn’t mean he didn’t care. George wondered if Storm Shadow’s death was caused by 

Dark Shadow

Was Isabelle’s vendetta against Dark Shadow because of Storm Shadow
