Bella woke up feeling extreme headache and dry eyes. Perhaps it was the effect of yesterday's events that was making her suffer this morning. As she thought about the engagement party, it left a foul taste in her mouth making her feel like she had swallowed something rotten.
After freshening up, she dressed up and walked out of the room. She felt somewhat moved today. Angry, and frustrated, but determined.
As she walked down the hall, she immediately found Damon chatting with his beta on the dining table. The diamond ring shined brightly on his finger.
She came around the table and chose to sit on the chair that was right next to Damon, making his gaze follow her steps before shifting his attention back to Roman.
Halfway through the b
"This one is fine." Bella picked up a Samsung mobile from the table, sliding away the apple one back towards the seller, and looked at Roman, "can we go to the college now? I am getting late."Roman paid for the phone and as soon as the set up of it was done, they walked out of the store."Is it necessary for you to drive Bently to drop me off?" Bella hesitated as she looked at the classy ride, "don't you have something like a Swift or any other normal car?"Roman turned his head to look at her, his eyes behind the black shades glowing under the sun, "what do you think my answer is going to be?"Bella rolled her eyes and slid in the passenger seat. Roman was just as frustrating as Damon. A bit less. But almost on the same level.
Bella was turning around to leave when her gaze fell upon the doorstep of the house,"Renee?"Bella's eyes widened in surprise while her lips spread into a wide smile at seeing her best friend standing there.Seeing her in front of her eyes, her eyes suddenly got filled with tears and she ran towards her, instantly taking her in a deep hug."Do you even know how much worried I was?" Renee scolded with a baby face, "your parents said you have found your mate so you left the pack when I came back home from the vacation. Your phone was not connecting and I was worried sick where you left without even telling me about it at all.""Sorry." Bella whispered, pulling back from the hug and pu
Bella was sitting outside on the swing placed outside her house caressing the finger which was not swollen because of the tight ring. Her eyes were staring at the moon. Her heart in pain because of the devil who had left to sleep in the guest room upstairs. She was no longer as afraid of him as the thought of her family dying by his hands scared her. She knew he was merciless and that was the only reason that brought tears on her cheek that she wiped away almost instantly. Her gaze turned to Renee who sat right beside her. "I know about Damon, Bella." Renee finally spoke up in a low tone, "your parents told me everything, and clearly... you are not happy at all." Bella put her hand on Renee's lap in an attempt to find some kind of assurance, "Where can I go, Renee? What should
Numerous negative thoughts were running in her mind at the same time and that is why she failed to realize when he took her hand in his palm softly. He caressed the injured skin with the tip of his finger and that was enough to wake Bella up from the cloud of her thoughts. She jerked her hand away, pulling it away from his hold. "What the hell do you want now?" she gritted in a strong voice, "aren't you happy seeing me in pain or are you planning to give me more because you are not yet satisfied?" Damon stared at her blankly without saying anything, making her even more irritated. She could not even understand why his stare was not frightening to her, in fact, it just made her more weak in front of him. She tried to walk past him and that is when he grabbed her stomach, holding her
But her words only made him furious. Even though he knew that her words were true, it still made him angry. Even he himself could not understand why. After all, it was not like he was in love with her, right? He was only getting so desperately attracted to her because of her body. He glared at her in anger and that anger shifted in his grip on her. Bella flinched but Damon only smirked at her, hiding the anger that laid under the surface, while Bella continued to speak without understanding the depth of danger lurking beneath, "you don't love me Damon. This is just the lust of your wolf that forces you to come close to me from time to time. You know it, right? You should not be worried about me. I am not going to be your mate for life, after all." He looked down at her, unblinking at her words, "yes, I don't love you and there is no w
It had been two days since their stay at Bella's house. Since day one, it was harder for her to be around Damon as it seemed like Damon was hell bent on showing everyone in the pack that she was his. The only time she had been able to take a breath of relief was when he had gone out yesterday morning due to his work meeting and returned very late at night. To welcome their relation, her parents were having to hold a party at their house to introduce the couple officially. Even though their relationship was fake, it made her feel like shit thinking how better it would have been if she were a werewolf, not a weakening. Maybe then Damon would have accepted her without any objections and this party would have been a happy one for her instead of a sad reminder of her disabilities. She looked down at her family that was busy in prepar
It had been two days since the last encounter with Damon. Bella was happy as well as irritated. Happy for being at home finally, but irritated because she was stuck with Damon who had not left even one chance to grab her alone.Renee had told her that there was a surprise coming for her. The thing she hated the most was surprises. She begged to her so much but the stubborn brat refused to reveal anything.But then Bella was happy as from the past two days she did not have to encounter the devil of her life. He had to go back to his pack to handle some business and Bella felt like a free bird again without his watchful eyes. But somewhere in her heart, she knew he was somewhere near her. Even though he was physically not there, she could still feel his presence. And his scent that he had left around the house and on her did n
Liam saw the tears in Bella's eyes and knew that she was feeling very emotional. Everything that had happened in her life within the past few weeks had made her even more exhausted than she had been while fighting for her life within her own pack for being the weakling. As she finally broke down in sobs in front of him, Liam hugged her immediately. Renee looked at both of them as she took deep breaths to control her tears. She had missed him too much as well. It was so good to finally see him again."Why am I feeling like my fighting champion has turned into a tears machine now?" Liam joked and was immediately hit with Bella's fist in his stomach as she gave him a threatening look."You have become too strong." Liam groaned in pain, "Stop eating so much now at least.""You are the fatt
As he watched her, a burning desire ignited within him. He wanted to be the one to make her smile like that, to be the one to make her happy and content. The thought of her being with someone else filled him with a fierce longing that he couldn't ignore.But he knew he couldn't force her to choose him. He had to let her go and hope that in her next life, she would see him as more than just a friend. He longed for the chance to love her fully, to be with her in every way possible.Hunter opened his eyes and took a deep breath, feeling a sense of calm wash over him. He knew he had to focus on the present and fulfill his duties as a celestial being. But he couldn't help the burning desire within him, the longing for Bella that consumed him.He stood up, feeling the cool night air on his face, and looked out over the pond. The moon goddess' magical aura surrounded him, and he felt a sense of peace wash over him. He closed his eyes again, focusing on his desire for Bella, letting it consum
HUNTERNicolaj walked slowly towards Hunter, taking in the magical surroundings of the moon goddess' place. The pond was surrounded by tall trees that seemed to glow under the moonlight, and the water's surface was so clear that it looked like a mirror. Hunter was sitting at the edge of the pond, staring into the water, lost in thought.As Nicolaj approached, he could smell the alcohol on Hunter's breath even from a distance. He shook his head, disappointed, but he knew that Hunter was going through a tough time."You're drunk," Nicolaj said, as he sat down next to him, “again. Ever since we have come back here, you haven’t been sober.”Hunter shrugged. "I needed something to forget about her. I thought getting drunk would help, but it's just making me talk about her more.""Bella?" Nicolaj asked, trying to keep his voice calm."Yes," Hunter said, looking down at his reflection in the water. "She chose Damon over me, a celestial being. Can you believe that?"Nicolaj raised an eyebrow.
Bella, who had entered the room in that very moment when Damon had snapped at Misha, moved quickly, taking Misha into her arms and soothing her with gentle words and loving touches. She knew that Damon was in a hurry and didn't mean to take it out on Misha, but he had scared Misha. Damon stood there, feeling like the worst father in the world. He tried to take her in his arms several times after that, not giving a damn about being hours late for the meeting but Misha would not let him pick her up at all. She started crying the moment he touched her. His little girl was upset with him. It was the worst feeling he had felt in his chest after Bella had left him. He could feel the tears welling up in his eyes as tried to coax her but she just didn’t allow him to even get near herself. “Don’t worry.” Bella put her palm on his cheek, assuring him softly, “she will get over it, baby. She must have gotten startled.” “She is angry with me.” Damon muttered, his heart aching painfully as he w
One Year After Damon and Bella Got MarriedAs the weeks passed by, Bella's pregnancy progressed smoothly, and Damon was more in love with her than ever before. He couldn't help but stare at her with admiration and desire, even as her belly grew larger with each passing day.One evening, as they were getting ready for bed, Damon pulled Bella close to him and whispered in her ear, "You look absolutely beautiful, my love."Bella blushed, feeling a surge of desire as Damon's hands trailed over her body. "Stop it," she giggled. "I feel like a beached whale."Damon shook his head, "You're glowing, Bella. Absolutely radiant. You make me feel like the luckiest man alive."Bella smiled, feeling her heart swell with love. "I'm so excited to meet our baby," she said, placing her hand on her belly.Damon leaned in and placed a gentle kiss on her stomach. "Me too," he whispered. "But right now, I just want to focus on you. You're so beautiful, Bella. More beautiful than ever before."Bella blushed
I broke off into a blind run after slamming the doors open. I ran straight to the pack house, not even thinking that I was wearing nothing but a t shirt and underwear. I ran straight inside. Since it was noon, some people had already woken up but others were still asleep, tired from the party yesterday. I ran into Roman as I was about to climb up the stairs."What's wrong?" he asked the very second he saw the look on my face."Hunter and Nikolaj. Where are they?" Even though I was breathes from running, I managed to splutter out."Guest rooms. First floor, first two rooms." Roman said with a confused stare.I ran off immediately. I was hoping it was just a joke that Hunter played for which I can kill him with my own
"Hey! I did not even agree to that!" I jumped in."An hour." Damon shot at Hunter."Twenty four hours." Hunter retorted."Three hours.""Twenty four.""Six hours""Eighteen.""Twelve hours! That's the last. You take it or leave it." Damon snapped and wrapped his arms around me tightly with his head on my shoulder, like a kid afraid of giving his toy away to another kid to play.I and the others sitting around were controlling ourselves with very much strength to not burst into laughing fits.
My hand was on Damon's that was wrapped around my chest to keep me close to himself. The moment he said it, my hand dropped lifelessly."She is still the same innocent, saint girl who had left me behind." Damon continued, "she is still the same to me, no matter what she did. So I want her. And I want her every version. I don't fucking give a damn if she kills the entire world."He gripped my shoulders and turned me around to face himself. His eyes were capturing mine with focus and love, "I wanted to torture them for you. They took my everything by ruining you. I wanted my revenge. If I was as soft as you are, I would have killed them the very day that you disappeared, Bella."Believing the words he was saying was hard. Even more hard was the feeling that was tingl
I hesitated. I knew he had a crush on me. He loved me. I knew that. And to hurt his feelings, that was the last thing on earth that I ever want to do. I could not even nod my head in answer but I guess I did not need to. He looked at it and then met my eyes again, "I should be saying that I am happy for you but if you want me to be honest..." he stopped speaking. "It is alright." I cut him off softly, "I know I hurt you." The grimness on his face increased. I don't think he wanted to see me hurt. Even when one day I broke a very beautiful piece of glass showpiece that he always kept on the side table by his bed, the one that he cherished so much that if Nikolaj even tried to touch it Hunter would be up at his throat barking
Bella's POVI think I had never felt my soul leave my body until this very moment. Damon was not just good at sex. He was literally torturously great that it did not even leave a room for me to complain about. I mean, it was not like I could say to him 'you are just too good at making me cum, slow down'? It would just broaden that damn smirk on his face even more.After washing my hands, and tying my hair in a loose bun, I followed Damon out of the washroom hand in hand. He took us back to the seats, but I pulled at my hand. He noticed the slight pull, turned around to face me, "What's wrong?"I arched up on my toes to say the words in his ear, "I am going to go out for a minute. I need to breathe some fresh air."I
