All Chapters of Beauty and the Alpha: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Adam woke her up and told her to get dressed, so Bella is now tugging on a pair of black yoga pants and an old faded t-shirt that she has. It is one of her favorites. It depicts Michael Myers holding a knife and beneath it, in a bloody text it says “A real man will chase you”. Adam's lips crook up at the corners when she opens the door and finds him on the other side. “Nice shirt.”Bella rolls her eyes and laughs. “So, I am dressed. What's up?”“Well, Mrs. Potter had to go out for the morning, so I am watching Chad for her. He wants you, of course. You have charmed him beyond measure, you know.”“I am just as smitten with him,” Bella confesses and Adam smiles.“Well, I hope you love him enough to make this cake that he has been talking about all morning,” Adam says and Bella laughs again.“My chocolate cake?” “That would be the one,” Adam confirms.

He might not know everything about her, but he does know that if she loves a person, there is not anything that she would not do for them.

  Bella stands there in the bathroom, with her shirt half on her head as she listens to the talk in the bedroom. She did not hear all of the conversation, just bits and pieces of it as she was brushing the tangles out of her hair. She heard Chad saying that he wanted to marry her and Adam saying that he could not. She had also heard the whole exchange when Chad said that he did not want to lose her and Adam had said those words. The words that had sent the butterflies in her belly to dancing a jig. Me neither.

    “Adam.” He looks up from where he sits at his desk, flipping pages in a book without even looking at the words. Adam just needed a moment away from everyone out there. “Yeah, Cole?” “Got a minute to talk?” His childhood best friend asks and Adam nods. “Sure. Come on in.&rd
