Twenty Six
“I think that I'm in love with Bella.”
The words echo through the room which is so silent that you could have heard a pin drop from a mile away. Adam looks up as the words spoken drop like a bomb. A small part of him thinks for a moment that maybe he was the one who said the words since she was on his mind at that moment.
“You think that you are in love with Bella, you said? What makes you say that?” Adam asks the boy.
He and Chad are sitting on Bella's bed, waiting for her to get out of the shower. He had tried to get Chad

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.
Beauty and the Alpha Twenty Eight
Bella had everything ready for when Mrs. Potter got to come back home four days later. She had asked Adam where the woman had been and he said that Lumi and Cole took her to a healer a couple of towns over. The woman belonged to a different pack, but Adam and their alpha had been friendly enough before. The other man agreed to help them. For the last few days that Mrs. Potter has been gone, Chad and Adam have slept with her in her bed. Chad has been a nervous wreck without his mother and he has clung to the two of them. He wanted Adam for protection and Bella for comfort. Which she was more than happy to offer him. S

“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

“Are you sure?” “I am one hundred and ten percent sure.” He says, looking serious. “But how do you know?” “Um.. because I know everything... Duh..” “Come on!” Bella playfully shoves Lumi and he laughs. “Tell me how you know!”
Beauty and the Alpha Thirty One
Adam watches the shock and the confused frown mar her beautiful features. She leans back away from him and his arm drops to the couch so he moves it to his lap. “You have a daughter?” “Had.” Adam corrects. “Well, was going to have. She never got the chance to be born.” “Oh, Adam..”
Beauty and the Alpha Thirty Two
Bella feels fireworks exploding all throughout her body at the first touch of his lips against hers. This was not her first kiss, but she was not experienced by any means. She had only ever been kissed twice before. Once by her lab partner Jimmy, when she was fourteen and again the day before they moved here by her best friend's older brother, Bowie. Kissing Adam though is so different from either of those experiences. Her first kiss with Jimmy had been horrible. She'd had no idea that he was going to try to kiss her. They had been standing in the hallway at school, discussing the notes from class when he had just suddenly shot forward and smashed his mouth to hers. He had pushed his tongue out but she was too shocked to even think about opening her mouth, so he just li
Beauty and the Alpha Thirty Three
It has been five nights since Adam asked Bella if he could stay with her. Five nights of him sleeping in the bed beside her, a couple of feet away, but not close enough to satisfy her. Because he does not touch her other than to sling an arm over her waist. Just to let him know that she is still there. Then he is out like a light while she stays up wrestling with all the thoughts and unanswered questions in her mind. Questions that she longs to ask him, but never does. Partly from cowardice and partly because of a lack of opportunity. Because when he leaves her bed of a morning he tends to avoid her throughout the day. When she bumps into him or seeks him out, he is so friendly, like nothing is going on. He hugs her or puts an arm around her shoulders in a platonic way before he moves away to avoid her more. He acts like nothing is going on but Bella knows what it is like to be avoided. She has put up with it for years at school. She is not stupid. But she is c
Beauty and the Alpha Thirty Four
“I can't.” When Adam tells her the words, she moves her finger from his lips. Bella turns her head away from him. She finds a spot on the wall beside the window and stares at it because she can not look at him. Her chest hurts and her eyes burn as if she might cry, but she won't. “Bella-” “Get off of me.” She says the words quietly but with a steel-like authority. He shakes his head but she turns to look into his eyes. He must have seen how serious she was in her eyes because he lifts himself away
