TREVORI sprang up from where I was sitting. I had secured Bella's location using our mate and her scent. I could hear her screams. I could feel her fear from the sound of her voice. I was angry with myself for not thinking of using our mate bond since.I was running out of time. I could feel Bella's energy depleting. Her voice was becoming faint and it scared the hell out of me. I called out to Kasper and he showed up immediately. Together, we went in search of Bella.My heart was thudding heavily against my chest. I had an extreme height of desperation. It caused me to feel uneasy. I ran at a high speed, with my men following behind. The mate bond which I had struggled so hard to use was now in full bloom. I felt Bella's presence more than ever and it spurred me on.My mind was spiraling with different thoughts. Bella's face came into mind. I would never be able to forgive myself if something bad happened to Bella. I thought about all the moments we had shared. The sound of her lau
BELLAI coughed, trying to catch my breath. I was horrified at the thought of Denver marking me. I could not just allow him to sink his evil teeth into me. I was extremely disgusted at Denver for everything he had done. His presence repelled me. I could not believe I had once trusted such a devil.I was losing my strength. It was taking too long for Trevor to arrive and I was tired of fighting. I felt him reaching for me. I felt his presence stronger and stronger but he was yet to show up. When Denver said he was going to mark me, it was as though I should scream Trevor's name.I was also careful not to let Denver know Trevor was coming. If I made it known that I had felt his presence, Denver would know I felt him from our mate bond. He would then ambush and kill him before he could save me. I knew better than to reveal anything to him.From the things he said, I found out he had planned to kill Trevor. The gunshot at the palace was not a mistake, neither was the idea of the rogues. I
TREVORI watched Bella rush towards Denver. I wasn't sure what exactly she had in her mind but when I saw her get close to Denver, I knew something was about to happen. She pushed him. I watched as he turned around and gave Bella a heavy blow. She fell to the ground and became static. I wanted to rush to her side but Denver was coming right at me.I was furious, seeing that Bella did not move at all. The fact that Denver had hit her so bad. It infuriated me that he would put her in that state. I was livid. He was supposed to face me, why Bella?Running to her was not the best decision at that moment. I had to be cautious. I could not let my guard down. I also could not let my emotions control my actions. If I could take out Denver, then I would be able to save Bella afterwards.I had intentionally spent time listening to Denver and engaging him in all that talk. It was very timely, giving me time to gather my strength. I was shocked at the length Denver went just to have his way. I t
TREVORI rushed Bella to the hospital. The weight of everything Bella went through affected her heavily. As soon as we got to the hospital, Bella was put in a coma. I stayed by her side for a bit and rushed back home to see my kids.As soon as I got into the palace, the twins rushed out to me. A flood of emotion filled my heart. I crouched before them and embraced them tightly. I rubbed their heads and nuzzled them, “Where have you been daddy? We waited for you,” Cara said.“I'm so sorry baby. I was busy saving mummy,” I told them calmly.“Where is she?” Craig asked.“Is she in trouble?” Cara asked.“Mummy was in trouble. I saved her already. Now she is in the hospital,” I said, kissing Cara's forehead, “How are my babies doing?” I asked,“Did you miss me?” I asked, looking into their faces.They nodded but their faces turned worried immediately as they looked at me, “What happened to your face?” Craig asked, touching my face.“Here too,” Cara touched my arm.“I got in a very serious fi
BELLAI held my breath as I stepped into the hallway of Empire High, mentally preparing myself for the snickers, murmurs, taunts, and all that. I was used to it, scratch that, I should be used to it by now but I wasn't, it still feels fresh every time I step into Empire High, every time someone mocks me, points at me, or laughs at me, it still hurts like hell. It still made tears pool at the corners of my eyes. "Hey Fat girl," my first abuser, a slim girl with the perfect body, perfect face, and perfect everything snickered at me and I had to force myself to keep walking, had to force myself not to run into the nearest classroom and hide myself there. "Were you able to walk through the doors this morning? With the way you're going, they'd have to tear the walls down for you to be able to do that."The whole hallway snickered at that and the harsh whispers and condemnation grew more venomous. How can anyone allow themself to look like that? Is she not embarrassed? If I were her,
BELLAI blinked, expecting the too-good-to-be-true scenario that I’d imagined in front of me to disappear just as soon as I'd imagined it but it remained there. He remained there, smiling encouragingly at me and gently nodding his head towards his outstretched hand, gesturing for me to take it. I could not believe it. I could not believe my eyes. The students in the hallway were still whispering furtively between themselves, and I could feel the eyes on me, on us. “My hand is starting to hurt, Sweetie,” he murmured in that deep husky voice of his, sending tingles all over my body.And I didn't know when I raised my hand and placed it on his, the feel of his my hand in his making me feel an indescribable feeling that made it feel like my entire being was liquidifying and I was melting into the floor. He pulled me up effortlessly as if I weighed nothing even though I was sure I weighed everything. I don't know what had gone wrong in the universe or why this was suddenly happening
BELLAHis kiss was everything passionate and soulful.His hand remained on my chin as he kissed me as if I was the most exquisite thing he had ever tasted. He was going slow, kissing me reverently as if was an angel, a thing made to be worshipped. Even when the kiss turned outrightly hungry and feral, he still didn't stop kissing me as if he was in awe of my existence, giving me the kind of pleasure I never knew existed until now. I had no experience and I didn't want to do anything for fear of being clumsy and putting him off but Trevor didn't seem to mind as he kissed me more and more intently, passionately stroking his tongue with mine, causing mewls of pleasure to escape from my mouth. The next thing I knew, his hands were on my zippers and undoing them while his mouth still remained fused with mine and that was when I remembered that the lights were still on. I hesitantly tore my mouth away from his and even though he looked like he wanted no distraction with the intense hung
BELLAI ran.I ran as fast as I could, ran as I fell as I could. My vision was so blurry from so much tears that even my wolf’s eyes couldn't save me from stumbling and falling but still, I ran. I needed to get away, from school, from Mara, from the taunts, from everything. From Trevor.Oh, Trevor.My already broken heart shattered completely at the thought of him. I couldn't believe it, couldn't believe this nightmare, couldn't believe what had happened, what was happening. It had all been a cruel joke and as usual, I was at the receiving end of it. It was an elaborate prank, one that was orchestrated by Mara and Trevor had gone right ahead to play along, to play me, to make me feel like I was loved and valued. He had treated me like I was a Queen, like I was worthy and deserving but it had all been a lie. Was he hiding his disgust when he saw my body?When he called me Sunflower? When he told me he knew even the mundane things about me? Thinking about it now, I was sure it was
