Meanwhile, Two Hours After Leaving The Party: Damon
"We searched through the history of all the packs and even the government system, there is nothing about all three of them." Aron, Damon's personal assistant and one of his close employees after Roman confirmed over the call. His voice wobbled a little, "we tried everything, but the tracker informed us that all three of them are staying inside a villa and have plans to board a flight back as soon as possible."
Hanging up the call, Damon punched the mirror in anger. The broken mirror showed his agitated reflection.
"Damn it, Bella! Why are you so hard to get?! I can not wait anymore. I have had enough, not anymore. You have to come back." he covered his face with his bloody palm and slowly slid dow
Damon was confused for a few moments, not understanding what Roman meant and when the realization dawned, his anger doublefolded, "Who the hell are you to interfere in what I do with my life?! I can do whatever I want and it is none of your god damn business.""I am your right hand. Half of your life belongs to me and the remaining half of your life belongs to the pack of the people who put their lives in your hands. Who joined you with a blind trust that you will always be there for them, that you will fight for them when everyone has left them." Roman's fists were clenched tight as he tried to breathe through the fury running through his veins, "many people have lost so much more in their lives but they don't resort to taking short cuts like you. You may not care about anyone, but those people that are living in Golden Lining Pack? Each person in that pack is bound to you. Alpha
Present...Unexpectedly, getting out of the villa and coming to Golden Lining Pack had been pretty easy for Bella. But after reaching the entrance, the car she was in had been stopped and she had to get out. The driver said that the car broke down so she will have to go alone from this point forward.The strong wall she had built around her heart had already started shaking remembering the day when she had stepped inside the territory of this pack. Even though her heart had been hurt severely, for a moment she had expected to see him here, standing right there and running madly to hug her as tight as possible in his arms. The dream shattered soon after and reality was in front of her eyes, but again, a familiar feeling was creeping inside her chest as she took first step to cross the main entrance and enter t
Her heart pounded in her chest. It can not be true, right? Her suspicion can not be true. She never imagined meeting him again, and this soon? Yeah, she knew something will happen when she comes back to this territory, but this was so unexpected that it was horrifying to her. The abrupt turn of events made her shiver. She wanted to ask the driver to stop the car but nothing came out of her mouth as the pounding heart seemed to just ready to come out of her chest. She was just deeply hoping that her suspicion was not going to be proven true.The car stopped in front of a familiar house. She was so lost in her thoughts that she did not notice the place nor hear when the driver called out to her to inform her that they had reached the place. She came out of her thoughts when the driver opened the car door.Bella looked at him, a
As she followed him, she realized that even though the house had changed from outside, it was still the same, familiar place where she had lived three years ago. She did not even want to enter the house which could make her so much weak that she feels suffocated.As she stepped up the stairs and entered the hall, the past came rushing through like a flood in her mind. Each and every corner of this house carried a different time altogether reminding her of the love and passion they both had lived through. She looked at the couch in the middle where they both had made love numerous times a day, the covers on it were still the same ones and the scent was of them both. As she averted her gaze, it fell on the kitchen counter and the dining table. She still remembered that when she had not known how to cook, Damon had made her favorite dishes and then taught her how to cook later
Her eyes went to the two glasses he held in his hands filled with wine. She remembered how he used to bring white wine for her to drink as it was the only alcohol she could drink without making a yucky face. And then her mind automatically slipped back to that day as well when she had gotten drunk on this same white wine when he had gotten engaged to someone else in front of her without any remorse and then refused to separate from her, all in the name of protecting Bella. A hint of a cunning smile came on her lips as she remembered all those painful moments and the consequences she had to face for them.She jerked back to present as he came to stand in front of her mere few inches away. Her eyes met with his dark ones. The unsaid words buried in her heart were bursting deeply to come out but she pushed them back. Her eyes were searching for something by looking in his, but he hid everything very cunningly."You are still as pretty as you were when I last saw you." he said with a smil
Bella shut her eyes tightly as her body stiffened in his hold and her jaw tightened. Her face showed that she was battling with her emotions like fighting for her life.When we decide to move on, vowing to never see the person who had hurt us the most, we forget that it is always us who give them the strength to come in front of us, to feel the same emotions that we had decided to seal for whole life."I had died myself, how could I come to see you?" she muttered.Her words pricked at him like needles, but she did not flinch even once. Seeing her expressionless face, Damon left her arm and took a step back.The look at her face clearly showed to what extent he had pushed her away from himself. His mistakes, an
His gaze softened slowly as he pressed her body against his hard one. his thumb which did not have any blood on it pressed her chin and traced the outline of her jaw. She took a deep, shuddering breath but he did not stop his advances. His hand slid down until he reached her stomach. His eyes lingered on her face but she remained expressionless. He caressed her stomach gently while he pressed his forehead on hers."I am sorry we lost your family." his voice cracked and she could see the vulnerable Damon in front of her again. Although she had closed all paths that made her feel pain for this man, still somewhere he was stirring the emotions to rush back inside her. She held her breath, she did not want to show her emotions to him anymore. She had already had enough of him, not anymore. He was not going to fool her ever again. Neither with his so called love, not with his pretentio
"We will see all that later. For now, I need your answer, Bella."Tightening her fingers in a fist, she gritted out, "FINE. I am staying here but you will not do anything to Hunter and Nikolai, and give back my passport.""I will, when it's time." he smiled innocently.She always knew that he was wicked, but she had never expected him to use all these dirty tricks on her."Your room is upstairs." he murmured and motioned towards the bedroom.Her stomach dropped. It was the room that she used to stay in with him. She was not going to live with him in the same room, but it still brought back a lot of memories that she had forgotten long ago.
