BELLAI stared at her for what felt like hours before a laugh tore through my lips. Elaine had to be really stupid, standing here, threatening me? Yeah, really stupid.“And this isn't a warning, it's a threat. Today's embarrassment is just the tip of the iceberg to what I'm capable of.“What more truck do you have up your sleeves?” I feigned intriguement, watching her with false enthusiasm. Her face now was scrunched up with her breaths coming out loud and mayme angry, but I loved that I was getting under her skin.“What do you think you are?” Elaine sounded like a mean high school girl and boy, was it hilarious. “Trying to take Mabel's place in Kai's life?”She knew Kai's ex mate?She scoffed, staring at me in the eye as she said the next words that registered in my soul like a carving on stone. “You could never measure up to her even if you tried. All you are is a pathetic loser, pining for someone else left overs.”“Elaine, that's enough.” Kai spoke as he approached us.“You don't

KAII sat in my office, staring blankly at the papers scattered across my desk. My mind was a thousand miles away, consumed by thoughts of Bella and the argument we'd had. I couldn't shake the feeling that I'd blown it, that I'd somehow managed to sabotage my own chances with her.The thought of losing her was like a knife to the gut. I couldn't bear the idea of living without her, of never getting to hold her in my arms again. And yet, that's exactly what I might have done. By not being fully honest with her about my past, by not being open about my feelings, I might have pushed her away for good.The worst part was, she thought I was using her as a rebound. Me, using Bella as a rebound? The idea was absurd. I loved her, truly and deeply. She was the one person who had managed to break through the walls I'd built around myself, the one person who had made me feel alive again.But there was a part of me that still held onto Mabel, a part of me that still grieved for what we'd had. I k

BELLAI ran my hand over my face, feeling a new wave of frustration. I felt uneasy even after I had chided myself to stop thinking about Kai.“May I have a seat?” Cash asked, I had almost totally forgotten that he was in the room.Still not looking up, I said. “Oh, I'm sorry. Please have a seat.” As he shuffled as he sat, I looked up.Cash had not changed a teensy weensy bit since that last time I saw him.I squinted my face in recognition as he smiled – clearly he knew– I smiled back as I asked.“Oh my God, Cash? How are you? It's been so long, what? Like a million years?” I laughed.“Yes, I've been good. And yes, it's been so long.” He said the last part with a hint of sarcasm in his tone. It's only been months since I graduated. “How've you been?” He asked me as he smiled, his eyes twinkling with different emotions.“I've been good, I'm just curious as to why you've decided to come to New York. And most especially as the guise of an intern.” I told him.He laughed, deep and throaty

BELLA“What the hell are you doing here? And drunk?” I was appalled.He took a step towards me with his hand reaching out, but like he contemplated it, he dropped his hand and took a step back. “Are you even real? Or are you just a figment of my imagination?”He asked, and I felt my chest dip.He was drunk to stupor, barely able to stand on his own two feet.“What are you doing here, Kai?” I repeated. He placed his right hand on the door frame to steady himself, his droopy eyes peering into mine. “I threw a party to celebrate your success, you refused my invitation.”“I’m busy here at the hospital, Kai. I don’t have time to party.” I said, holding his gaze.“It’s past your working hours.” He was right. I wanted to stay by Cora’s side tonight, but I really can’t leave Kai to go home by himself in this state.“Did you drive?” I asked, bobbing my head to the side.He shook his head no. “I think I came with the driver.”“You think?” I almost laughed out loud at the absurdity. I turned aro

BELLAI stood in the car park, my eyes fixed on Cora as I hugged her tightly. "I'm going to miss you so much," I whispered, my voice shaking with emotion.Cora’s arms wrapped around me, holding me close. "I'll miss you too, Bella. But you need to take care of yourself, okay? And don’t forget what I told you."I nodded, feeling a lump form in my throat. Cora was returning back to Moonlight pack, and it hurt me to see her leave after everything she’s had to endure from Grey. But she needed to go to finalize the rejection.“Take care of yourself too,” I replied as we pulled away from each other, tears blurring my vision. I looked up at Xavier and Lennon. They were taking Cora back to make sure she got there safely. I couldn’t be more grateful. I smiled, muttering a small thank you. Xavier smiled back, and Lennon nodded.Xavier took a few steps towards me, and I saw a flicker of concern in his eyes. "What's wrong?" I
