“You think you can handle my world, Bella?” Leo growled, his eyes blazing with a dangerous intensity as he cornered her. “Once you're in, there’s no way out. I’ll destroy everything you are.”Isabella’s breath caught, but she didn’t back down. Her voice was soft but unwavering as she whispered, “Maybe I’m not as fragile as you think. Maybe I want to be destroyed by you.”Leo’s hand gripped her chin, tilting her face up to meet his. “You have no idea what you’re asking for,” he warned, his tone dark and possessive. “I’ll take everything—your innocence, your light. You’ll be mine, completely.”She leaned in closer, her lips barely an inch from his. “Then take it, Leo. Take all of me.”✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*Isabella was beautiful and innocent, with a kind heart and a true desire to help others.
