Bella’s Pov “Stop.” I cried as I tried to move my head away from Lucas’s hand that wouldn’t stop rubbing my hair. For some reason after he had kissed me like he needed me to breath he had nudged my head against his chest. His continuous stroke of my hair had me feeling flustered. It didn’t hurt but it made it impossible for me to look around the jet because whenever I tried to lift my head he was pushing it back down and rubbing my hair more. “Relax.” He whispered against my hair. I furrowed my brows as I stared at the window that I could no longer look out. “I want to look outside.” I complained as I tried to wiggle away from him. “Once we get there you can explore, now relax.” He ordered sternly.“Actually once we land you have to go straight to the resort for multiple conference calls.” Janet stated from my side. My eyes narrowed as I looked at Lucas in frustration. A small smirk formed as he licked his lips and causing glanced at Janet. I wanted to reach up and rub the stub
Bella’s Pov A small smile formed as I climbed out of the car. “It’s beautiful.” I whispered as I looked at the huge beach resort that we would be staying at for the next two weeks. The resort was bigger than any building I had ever seen before. It was like 10 times as long as our company. The pearly white and black trimming of the building almost seemed out of place if not for the clouds and the mountain that were in the distance. “How is there snow on that mountain but not here?” I asked. I furrowed my brows and looked at the mountain that clearly had a lot of snow on it. I looked up at the sky and stared at all the blue that should’ve had at least a few clouds blocking it. I didn’t have to look behind me to know that the sky was clear above the ocean. The beach was what I paid attention to as we drove down the curvy road that lead the the resort. My arm was grabbed and Lucas was guiding me forward not answering my question which was okay. I would find out everything I nee
Bella’s Pov I couldn’t help but feel like a pampered prisoner as I gently moved my legs through the water. I held the railing on the side of the indoor pool that was somehow in our suite and allowed my body to float out a little.“This is unfair.” I mumbled as I pushed myself away from the edge. I floated forward as I kicked my feet a little not really remembering how to swim. I was at least lucky that Lucas had taken the time to give me floaties to keep me from sinking to the bottom. He had at first tried to give me a tour but the stubborn part inside of me had refused. If not for him listing off what I could do during my time locked away I would’ve never known about the pool. “I think this is totally fair.” A super sweet voice sang from the side causing me to look behind me. Monica was standing by the pool with her hand on her hip as she stared down at me with a sly smile. “Why are you here?” I couldn’t help but ask as I narrowed my eyes at her. This was our suite and she was w
Bella’s PovA small smile was plastered on my lips as I allowed my feet to wiggle in the sand. The coolness of it as I pushed my feet deeper brought a sense of comfort to my body. The constant swish of the waves brought a sense of peace that had me loving this moment. I looked across the wooden table at Lucas and couldn’t help but blush as he leaned forward a little. “You aren’t eating.” He pointed out as he pointed his fork that had a piece of meat on it towards me. I couldn’t remember for the life of me the name of the meat that he had ordered. “I am not really hungry.” I murmured as I pulled my feet out of the sand with a sigh. “Eat.” He ordered even though I clearly stated I wasn’t hungry. “Now.” He added when I made no move to eat. A scowl formed as I looked down at the fruit salad that he had picked out for me. It had everything from mangos to grapes all covered with Carmel drizzle. Had I not been so memorized by everything around me than maybe I would’ve had a bigger appe
Bella’s Pov The alcohol that was in my body had me relaxing more into Lucas’s hold. “I told you not to drink.” He mumbled as he brought me a little closer. I lazily looked at the fire out the corner of my eyes and smiled as it blazed brightly. “Danny said it was okay.” I sighed as I looked up at him and gave him a kiss on the side of his lip. His stubble had me kissing that spot a few more times. “I like your stub.” I mumbled as I gave him another kiss. “Do you?” He asked with a voice that had me looking at him with lust filled eyes. “Can you guys at least wait until we get home.” Monica’s loud voice had me furrowing my brows and Lazily looking at her.The way she looked like a spitting image of me when the night hit was haunting. Anyone could mistake her for me. Would Lucas mistake her for me? That thought had me mentally shaking my head to rid myself of any negative thoughts. “Everyone here does have eyes.” She continued when we made no indication of saying anything. “He
Bella’s Pov “Baby we have to go soon.” Lucas whispered into my ear as I snuggled more into the blankets. “I took my shower.” I mumbled as I grabbed the pillow and put it over my head. I had taken a shower like he had asked but decided that I would go back to sleep after I got dressed. The grogginess I had woken up with didn’t go completely away when I had taken a shower so I decided I would sleep all day. The pillow that I had put over my head was snatched away swiftly and my arm was grabbed before I could grab another pillow. “Up now.” He demanded as he lifted me up like I was a rag doll. A small whine left me as I looked up at him with a pitiful expression on my face. “I don’t feel good.” I mumbled as I willed myself not to take in how handsome he was this morning or maybe afternoon. “You slept enough now up.” He ordered. I had no time to prepare for him lifting me up and setting me on my feet. His hold on me didn’t loosen as he walked us out of our room. I looked back at t
Bella’s PovThe loud breakfast hall as I would have liked to call it was crowded with people dressed to perfection. You would think that they were here for a business meeting instead of lunch that consisted of breakfast. Most of the woman that were walking around had on the finest cocktail dresses and the men had on everything from suits to ironed dress shirts and pants. My bright yellow sundress kind of seemed out of place with all of the sophisticated outfits that everyone had on. It felt like I was the only one that was here for lunch while everyone else was here to mingle and talk. “Why didn’t you warn me there would be so many people.” I mumbled to Lucas as I leaned more into him. I couldn’t lie and say that I wasn’t horrified. The loud chatter going around and the people that were constantly coming up to us had me feeling flustered. “Mr. Connery what a pleasure to see you again.” A lady purred from the side of us. I looked over towards her and narrowed my eyes that her cl
Bella’s Pov“Don’t move or you will regret it.” Dr. Hickory declared as the man that was in front of me pulled out a needle. I would’ve never thought that Dr. Hickory was this shady. I knew he was not the best brain doctor but I didn’t see him as a thug. Threatening a woman with a big buff guy in a suit seemed below him. The man that had the needle in his hands seemed to be almost emotionless. His eyes seemed to be a black hole and his posture was a little of the rough side. He seemed like he should be a security guard somewhere shady. I looked at all the witnesses that were clearly watching this mess unfold and narrowed my eyes. “Is nobody going to help me with these thugs?” I asked in frustration. Clearly they were thugs and unless everyone in here was a thug someone should’ve already called for help. I knew I couldn’t ask Lucas for help because he had hired these thugs. The man that was holding the needle actually chuckled like being called a thug was the most hilarious thin
Lucas's pov "Is she finally asleep?" Theodore asked as soon as I walked into the pool room. "Yes." I said as I sat down on a chair next to Robert. "It took long enough." Theodore complained in a clipped tone. " She just wanted to watch another movie." I said as I stood up and walked over to the mini fridge that was next to a mini bar. "You could've said no." Theodore muttered. I ignored him and grabbed myself a sprite. "As long as she's without her memories, Lucas will be the perfect husband." Robert said or more like threatened. His deadly tone reminded me that this wasn't a fun vacation. "Get me a coke." Robert said as I sat down. I groaned internally and gave a tight-lipped smile as I stood back up. I was quick to grab a coke and turned towards Theodore. "Did you want something? "Yea, get me a water." He said. "Okay. I mumbled as I grabbed the water. I walked up to Robert and handed him his drink. "Thanks." Robert said, which was surprising. "No problem." I sa
Bella’s Pov My eyes narrowed as I looked at my doctor who had clearly lied about my sister going home. She had told him that she would stop being different for Lucas and me and now she could stay for some reason. “Did you already pick the movie?” He asked when he noticed me staring. “Lucas did.” I murmured as I looked over at Lucas and narrowed my eyes even more because he was suppose to be watching a movie with me but instead he was on his laptop doing work. “Are we not watching a movie?” I asked as my brows furrowed. “After I’m done.” He murmured as he continued to type away on his laptop. “You have been working for hours.” I stated as I glanced at the screen that had all kinds of documents spread around. He clicked on one of the screens and it switched places with another causing me to become confused. I didn’t understand anything he was doing so I could only look back at him in frustration.“Can’t you do that later?” I asked as he stared intently at the screen. “Relax.” H
Lucas’s Pov The irritation I felt as I glanced at Theodore was tangible. We had decided that we would keep it simple and make sure that Monica was pacified along with Bella but for some reason Theodore had seemed to have forgotten. “Don’t you guys have a prenup?” Robert added to the conversion. My brows furrowed as I looked at him with a questioning gaze. If not for Bella and Monica I would’ve asked both of them what they were doing because it seemed like they were trying to sabotage my marriage again. We had clearly agreed to make it seem like Monica didn’t get hardly any inheritance and that’s why she married Theodore but for some reason they were both being reckless. “No we don’t have a prenup.” Theodore stated confidently. I internally chuckled as I forced myself to look at Bella. “Didn’t I say to eat?” I asked as I grabbed one of the deviled egg with the fork and brought it up to her lips. She looked down at the egg and over at me with a meek expression on her face. I
Bella’s Pov “You can sit next to me.” My doctor said nearly instantly. The way my sisters face morphed to one of pure anger had me confused and annoyed. “But I want to sit here.” She said as she looked back at Lucas. “Why do you keep looking at my husband?” I couldn’t help but ask as I narrowed my own eyes. She clearly had her own husband but acted like she didn’t. She didn’t even treat him like he was her husband. Lucas told me it’s because she didn’t remember him but that didn’t matter because I didn’t remember Lucas and I didn’t act like her. Monica looked at me and frowned clearly not liking that I asked her that question. “I can look at him.” She retorted with an attitude that had me pursing my lips together.“I said eat.” Lucas murmured as he leaned in closer to me. I looked at him through my lashes and blushed a little as he stared at me with a stern gaze. “But she keeps looking at you.” I couldn’t help but say. “Is her looking at me hurting you?” He asked lowly. “Yes.”
Bella’s Pov I watched as Lucas put different kinds of food on my plate. “What’s that?” I asked as he grabbed what looked like a boiled age but cut in half. I had had boiled eyes with my soup yesterday and I couldn’t lie and say that it wasn’t delicious. “A deviled egg.” Lucas stated as he put it next to the cut up pieces of steak and bread. “A deviled egg.” I murmured to myself. “Yes.” He murmured as he grabbed some rice. “Is it good?” I couldn’t help but ask as I leaned closer into him. “Yes.” He stated confidently. “What are you guys doing?” A female asked from behind me before I could ask more questions. I looked over my shoulder and narrowed my eyes as Monica and my uncle walked up to us. My uncle Theodore was walking causally next to my sister which had me furrowing my brows. “Why are you here?” I asked in annoyance. My uncle gave a smile while my sister only rolled her eyes. “I decided to take your sister down for something to eat.” My uncle Theodore stated. I gave
Bella’s Pov (3 days later) I tightened my hold on Lucas’s hand and stared at all the people that were walking around in pretty dresses. Lucas had told me that there would be no more than a couple of people but from what I could see there was at least 100 people walking around. I used my free hand to tug on the black dress that Lucas had me wear. He told me that black was my favorite color dress but after looking at all of the colorful dresses that scattered the room I could almost guarantee he was lying. “Next time I want to wear a yellow and purple dress.” I stated as I realized that my two favorite colors were them. “Yellow and purple?” He asked sounding surprised. “Yes. I like them colors and nobody seems to be wearing one of them colors.” I said as I looked around one more time. “That’s because then colors don’t go well together.” He stated in a matter of fact tone. Had I had my memories I would’ve argued with him but since I wasn’t sure if he was lying I could only pur
Bella’s Pov I stared at Lucas in confusion not understanding how even though he could make me blush I didn’t remember him at all. I couldn’t lie and say that he wasn’t handsome. He had a charm to him that I thought was perfect and I could only assume that’s why we married. When he looked up at me from his food a small smirk formed on his lips. He gently wiped his mouth off with his napkin and smirked as he licked his lips. “So do you like your food?” He asked as he looked down at my chicken lettuce wrap and back up at me with a raised brow and a smile. My cheeks brightened as I looked back down at my plate that I had forgotten about. I hadn’t even realized that I was staring at him for so long. He was the definition of perfect and I could only grab my food quickly and take a big bite. Eating was better than talking. Especially since he caused butterflies to attack me every time he talked or looked at me. How had I ended up with someone so perfect? “So I take it that it’s good
Lucas’s Pov I tried not to react as Bella looked at me from across the table. She was suppose to still be sleep but somehow she was awake and now staring at me with a questioning gaze. “Why, why don’t I remember anything again?” She asked as she grabbed her iced tea and slowly drank it. I gave a forced smile as I looked at Robert for the answer because I wanted to know the same thing. She was suppose to know who I was but for some reason she woke up and remembered nothing. Robert who had been silent the whole time bared his teeth as he looked down at the papers that one of his workers brought to him when she had woke up. “It seems like the accident you got into has given you amnesia.” He forced out through the anger that seemed to be brewing slowly. “Amnesia?” She asked in confusion as she set her glass down delicately. “Yes, it seems like you lost all your memories because of the accident.” He ground out. I didn’t have to ask him if he was upset because it was clear as day t
Penelope’s Pov “Enough.” He yelled loudly. The shock that my mother had was quickly replaced by anger. “Don’t tell at our daughter.” She screamed back at him. “Shut up, I am done with Penelope’s obsession over Lucas. Lucas is married and what he does with Bella is his business and if she can’t understand that than I will disown her.” He said with so much aggression that I knew he wasn’t joking. His words had me paling as they slowly settled it. “You’ll disown me because of Lucas?” I couldn’t help but ask as I took a deep breath and grabbed at my chest. My father was suppose to love me but instead he planned on disowning me for Lucas. “No, I’ll disown you because of your obsession that is ruining this family not because of Lucas.” He exclaimed with narrowed eyes. “I am not obsessed.” I stated defensively. Even though I knew that the love I had for Lucas had passed being normal I refused to admit that I was wrong. “Really than why do you care about what he does with his wife?”
