182days at the Lycan’s palace Chapter 73
~ BELLA’S POVI slowly opened my eyes, still feeling a bit groggy. As my vision cleared, I gradually adjusted to the bright light in the room. I feel my temples with my hand; my head is pounding with an unexplainable headache, and my eyes feel heavy with bags. As I slowly turn my gaze, I see the man sitting next to me, and to my surprise, it's Austin!I notice the stern expression on his face, causing me to jolt upright Immediately. My heart beating out of my rib cage, I frantically scan the room anxiously looking for Jacob but he is nowhere to be found.I turn to Austin and worriedly inquire, "Where is Jacob?""Why are you asking?" he asks sternly.His tone becomes more worried, and I quickly respond, "Where is he? I'm getting really worried. Can you please tell me?"His eyes meet my worried expression, and he dismissively says, "I don't think you'd want to know where he is, but just so you know, he is not here."My heart sinks as I try to make sense of his words. Did something happe

It’s been three months since Jacob left.I haven’t heard from him since then nor have I even heard his name mentioned in the house for the past couple of weeks.I really miss Jacob, he was all I ever wanted and I wish I could change everything and make him be with me. I wish he could come back to me but I know deep down in my heart, he wouldn’t. Austin must have made it hard for him to even think about me and talk less of forming back to me.Every time, I try to bring up a conversation about Jacob, Austin ignores me presumably because he doesn’t want to show me that he’s angry. I still can’t figure out why Austin gets mad, I understand that my relationship with Jacob came as a surprise to him but that’s is not a reason to be mad is it? And if he wants to be mad at someone then it should be me and not his brother.It was never just Jacob… I wanted it too. I wanted us to be together and I think Austin did the wrong thing by just punishing Jacob for it. I should be in the same position J

"For five years?" I gasped, my mind reeling from the realization. Austin has been wanting me to be here for that long?My brain is buzzing with a whirlwind of thoughts, and I find it challenging to focus on just one. It's like a jumble of ideas and emotions all vying for attention at once. I couldn’t understand a thing that was going on. This is really hard to wrap my head around. The fact that Austin wanted me here for over a year doesn't make any sense to me. I thought he only found out about me a month before we signed the contract. But now it seems like I was totally wrong. It feels like everything, from the contract signing to Uncle Martin's involvement, was all part of a big setup. I mean, that's the only reasonable explanation right now because Uncle Martin knows everything but never said a word to me….. Why would he do that to me? I'm his niece, after all. Although he never actually considered me as one because if he did he would have always been there for me and Layla. As

I slowly open my eyes, greeted by the soft rays of sunlight that filter through the curtains and gently caress my face. Letting out a tired groan, I reach out to the space beside me, wondering if Austin is in the room or not. When my hand finds nothing but cool sheets, I sigh and roll over to the other side of the bed, seeking solace in its familiar embrace.There is no better relaxation than having the bed all to yourself. It’s just so comforting and satisfying knowing that I can roll over the bed anyhow I want to without anyone touching anyone. Feeling the relief of being alone, I let out a dramatic sigh, savoring a few precious moments of rest before mustering the energy to lift my body and stretch my arms. With a gentle rub of my eyes using the back of my hand, I bid farewell to the cozy covers and made my way to the wardrobe. There, I carefully select my favorite pair of panties, grab a fluffy towel, and gather my toiletries before heading to the bathroom.It’s time to freshen u

With tears streaming down his face and his voice choked with emotion, Charles looked down at me and said, "Jacob is gone."My heart dropped, and tears started to well up in my eyes. Did he just say….. no he didn’t? I don’t think I heard him right. I definitely heard him wrong. That’s not what he said, I just know it. I heard him wrong, I definitely did. I look at Charles and my face is filled with disbelief. I must be mistaken, right? There is no way Jacob could be gone. It just doesn't make sense. Jacob can not be gone, he is fine. I can sense that he is fine. My mind starts to race, trying to find any other explanation but it’s so hard when I have two men mourning in front of me. Jacob is actually gone?No.I don’t think so. There is a good explanation for this. It is possible that I am just overanalyzing everything. Maybe I didn't fully grasp what Charles meant. Perhaps he and Austin are feeling down because Jacob is no longer around, which could also be because he went on a j

~ A week later It’s been a week since Jacob passed away and just like the very day, I am still finding it hard to believe that he’s gone.Every day, every night, every minute, every second has been a goddamn nightmare for me. I have flashbacks of Jacob and I imagine the dreams we wanted together- the dreams that will never be reality. Thinking of Jacob has become a daily habit of mine, making it hard for me to believe that he is truly gone and will never come back. Since the day I learned about the death, I haven’t had a good sleep not because I couldn’t sleep but because each time I close my eyes I see his beautiful face and his bright smile dancing across my eyelids. It makes it hard for me to accept the truth and endure the pain. It’s been a real struggle for everyone most especially Austin. I mean, he is really going through it right now. I have never seen him so down and out before. He's just different now. He’s lost his appetite, barely saying a word to anyone unless absolut

We pulled up at the church and I walked out of the car with Austin. He has a sunglass on and is refusing to remove it no matter what. I guess he put them on to make things easier for him. I understand that he doesn’t want people to see him crying, especially in a crowded place like this. Austin and I walked together, our footsteps echoing in the quiet church. He seemed lost in his thoughts, avoiding eye contact with anyone. As we matched to our seat all eyes were on us but Austin acknowledged no one as he found his seat. I sat down beside him, a comforting presence by his side. In the next minute, the pastor's voice filled the air, speaking words of tribute and remembrance for Jacob. Each word struck my heart, a bittersweet reminder of the void left by his absence. It still feels surreal, like a cruel twist of fate that Jacob is no longer here with us.While the pastor's words filled the entire room, I couldn't tear my gaze away from the somber sight of the closed casket positioned a

The funeral service came to an end, and we returned home for the reception. I was engulfed by a sea of sympathetic faces, each person trying to console me with their own grief and words of encouragement. Their presence meant a lot to me, but my heart ached to break away from them and rush to Austin's side. I really want to ensure he is okay and offer him the support he desperately needs in this difficult time.I was really concerned after he finished speaking at the church. And back when we were heading home, he didn't say anything else, and I'm scared that he might be feeling depressed and could do something to hurt himself. All I want is to ensure that he's alright.While I was talking to Clarissa, the pastor's wife who was trying to console me, I glanced around the room, desperately searching for Austin. But to my disappointment, he was nowhere to be seen.My mind is filled with negative thoughts, and I'm really scared that Austin isn't doing well. I finally manage to excuse myself

182days at the Lycan’s palace The End Of The Beginning
~ AUSTIN’S POV Just like every single night, this scene keeps playing over and over in my head; a nightmare. It's etched in there, haunting me like the sound of a thunderstorm that won't let up. I can see it vividly, like a movie playing in my head. Jacob, he's there, begging for mercy. His voice and pleads are dancing in my ears, echoing and lingering. I wish I could do something to help him, I wish I could rush in and save him, hold him close, and tell him that everything's gonna be alright. But I'm stuck. It's like I'm frozen in time, unable to change what will happen no matter how much I try. I can see the killer attacking Jacob, he isn’t saying anything but his silence scares me. I watch him take slow steps closer to Jacob like a lion ready to prey. Though I can’t see his face, I can tell that he is dangerously aggressive. From his moves to his body to the shape bloody axe he is holding; it all screams danger and death. My heart immediately starts to race a mile a minute as

"Layla, are you done getting ready?" I ask, stepping out of my room. "Yes and I'm right here," she replies with her cute little voice, peeking out from the corner. I turn to look at her, and my eyes light up with delight at her appearance. "Wow, you look absolutely stunning!" I exclaim, unable to hide my admiration. "Thanks, Bell! I really love this dress. It's definitely the best Christmas gift ever," she says, her face beaming with joy as I wrap my arms around her. As we pull away, I can't help but smile. "Oh, silly girl!" I cup her face "The dress is just a present, not your actual Christmas gift. That's waiting for you under the tree." "Really? Can I open it now?" she asks eagerly, her excitement palpable. "No, sweetheart. We have to wait until after dinner," I reply, trying to contain her impatience. "Okay," she says, though her tone hints at her eagerness to tear into the presents. She's always like this when it comes to Christmas gifts. As we descend the stairs, I feel L

~ BELLA’S POVThose weeks seemed to pass by in a blur, and little by little, I felt my heart and soul healing. The pain and confusion I once felt about why Samaria tried to hurt me started to fade away. It finally clicked in my mind that she did it because she wanted to be with Austin. I can understand her perspective, but I can't help but think that her approach was completely wrong and unacceptable.If she had just talked to me, she would have known that my heart never throbbed for Austin. He's always been just a friend to me, nothing more than that. It's frustrating to think that if she had followed the right path, she could have had Austin without causing all this unnecessary pain. But alas, she didn't realize it.A lot has changed in the past few weeks, and I've noticed some interesting things. Layla has been doing so much better lately. She's not spending all her time sleeping anymore, which is a huge relief. And as for Austin, he seems to be a lot happier overall. But there are

Samaria stood in front of me, her eyes fixed on mine, waiting for a response. I tried to meet her gaze, but something held me back. Was it because I still had feelings for her, or was it just my own anxiety getting in the way?"I don't love you anymore," I say, looking into her eyes. It's hard to believe I actually said it, but strangely, I don't feel as anxious as I thought I would. It's like my heart knows it's the truth and it feels liberating to finally be honest."No!" she shakes her head, refusing to accept it. "You're lying to me. I can't believe this.""You have to leave now. I don't have time for this," I inform her, trying to be firm."No, you can't just tell me to leave, Austin. You need me," she insists."I don't need you," I reply, my tone resolute."Yes, you do. You need me," she repeats, holding on to hope."The door is that way, please," I point towards the exit, choosing to ignore her plea."I can't leave, especially when you need me," she says."For the love of God,

~ AUSTIN’S POVSamaria is definitely behind this. She has to be the one who tried to drug Bella, it only makes sense that way because she was the only one present there and she had the pill bottle with her. I am not so sure of this but I find it very much believable that she can do something of such. She’s done a similar thing in the past so I won’t be that much surprised if she tried to do it again. I have been constantly thinking about this and I want to let it slide but at the same time, I can’t. It’s hard to let go of a matter that is more of a life-and-death situation. Samaria must have been fully aware of the purpose and effects of the medication to intentionally use it on Bella.Leaning against the chair, I try to reason it, all pieces of this situation tell me how badly Samaria is behind this. I mean, first, she gets extremely upset at Bella for no particular reason and then suddenly she tries to get to know her better…. I knew something was off the moment Bella told me that

~ AUSTIN’S POVI have done a lot of thinking and I believe this is best for me. I just have to do it no matter how hard it is or how much it’s going to hurt me. I know this is going to be extremely tough but I believe I can handle it. I have dealt with so many tough things and even though I know that this won’t be easy, I believe I can do it. I have spent years being in constant pain, just trying to strive and be myself. I think that everything will be fine if I just go back to Samaria. She has always been the one my heart desires and maybe, just maybe her words are true and she wants to be back together. I know it's a long shot and I've said in the past that I don't want to be with her, but the truth is, my heart yearns for her. Every part of me is calling out her name, and all I can think about is spending the rest of my life with her.I thought of letting her go and just be with Bella but what if Bella doesn’t want to be with me? What if she wants to be with someone else? I mean B

~ AUSTIN’S POVI'm feeling super overwhelmed with all these thoughts and emotions flooding my brain. It's like my mind is running a marathon, going a mile a minute! And the craziest part is that I can't seem to control my own thoughts. It's like they have a mind of their own, trying to take over the little space in my head.And it only gets more confusing and complicated because, for some reason, Jacob keeps popping into my head, and that's so out of the blue because I usually never think about him. I try my best to keep him out of my mind to avoid getting hurt, but it's like he's on repeat in my thoughts and I can't hit the pause button. It's driving me nuts. I wish I had a magic trick to make those thoughts disappear, but unfortunately, I'm still figuring it out myself.It's been a tough week for me, and I didn't make it to the cemetery to meet Jacob because of all these negative thoughts clouding my mind. It's so strange how my thoughts keep circling back to Jacob, even though I ca

I've got every little detail meticulously planned out. It's going to be absolutely flawless, without a single blunder. I am determined to make sure everything goes smoothly so I can end this once and for all. I really need to put an end to this madness so Bella and I can have the perfect peace we deserve.I am pretty sure that I sound like a bad sister but trust me, I’m not the bad sister, Bella is. She is the one who is trying to take my man away from me. She is the one that trying to impose hateful comments about me on Austin. She is the one that ruined my life and now, I am going to make her feel the same. The only difference is that it won’t hurt as much as it did to me. I've got my plan intact in mind to ensure Bella rests in perfect peace before Austin returns home. After doing some research, I discovered that taking that large amount of pills would lead to death, but it takes time for them to take effect. All I am wishing now is for Austin to not come back before then, as I don
