Bella's POV
Fun fact people: I wrote this chapter twice. I don't know how it happened but the first one got deleted and it took me like three days of lamenting, crying and throwing unnecessary tantrums about it before I could bring myself back to write it again. It might not meet your expectations but I hope it sends the right information across. Thank you.Adonis' POV
Bella's POVMinutes after Adonis left, I kept on asking myself if all that just happened was real or maybe it had been a dream as usual. I pinched myself, slapped my palms against my cheeks to try and wake myself from that dream but nothing works.
Bella's POV"I–– I didn't mean to leave" The hurt was evident in his eyes and I didn't know what to say or reply just to make him feel better."But you did," he concluded."I don't know you, Adonis, I don't even know who you are. You can't expect me to wait for a total stranger""You know who I am, Bella," he replied. His voice was higher this time."I told you everything the first night we met and you agreed""If I did, then why can't I remember anything? All I remember is your name and maybe your handsome face. Nothing more. I want to know what happened" I begged."I want to tell you as well. But
Adonis' POVAs soon as those words left my mouth, Bella sat frozen for a minute, she wasn't saying anything but the next thing she did was get up from her seat and walk out of the restaurant, leaving me shocked and confused."What happened, Adonis?" Marco walked over."Confession went wrong" I replied, trying to cover up the hurt I felt with pride."Then, go after her until she understands, Adonis" He persuaded me and I only shook my head."It's not necessary anymore. She left because she doesn't want to have anything to do with a monster like me""No man. She left because she was probably overwhelmed with the revelation. Imagine being a regular person an
Bella's POV"You don’t look good this morning, Bella," Dede said as I walked into the restaurant first thing the next morning."Blame that on my nightmares" I replied, almost close to tears.I was so exhausted I could barely feel my body due to my lack of slope the previous night. I'd woken up from a nightmare around one in the morning and I wasn't able to sleep back after that."Maybe you should take a break from work today" Dede proposed just as Eva had done and I refused her advice.I was too scared to stay alone at home. I didn't want to be alone to avoid Adonis completely. The fear of him showing up in my house was too much for me to risk. I don't want to see him yet so it'll be better to
Bella's Pov"I still think you should leave town, Adonis" We were back at the cafe shop, sitting at one of the tables, opposite to each other. He'd tried persuading me to forget about him leaving town."This man can come back anytime and the vibes he's giving are deadly. I don't like it" I replied worriedly."Stop worrying about me Bella, I'll be fine. The only person I'm worried about is you," He answered, confusing me."Why? He only asked about you. He wasn't interested in me" I explained."For him to come to you to ask about me, then it means he might target you if he's unable to get a hold of me"That just sends shivers of fear down my spine.
Adonis POVThe rain had started by the time we got back to Bella's apartment and for the first time, I used the door."I think this will be the first time you'll be using the door here," Bella exclaimed."Were you reading my thoughts?" I asked her and she smiled."You should use the door from now on," She demanded."I think that won't be possible" I winked at her and took a seat on their soda.I wouldn't possibly wait outside the door for her to open it when I know she was just inside and I could have access to her in seconds."You're a bad boy," she glared at me before entering her r
Bella's POV "Hey," I smiled widely as I spotted Adonis outside the shop already waiting for me. He was leaning against a Ferrari. Also, he was wearing sunglasses and was also putting on his dark ensemble outfit. Damn! He looked so good. "Hey," he moved closer and kissed my cheek. "Shall we?" I asked. He suddenly walked towards the car and opened the door of the Passenger's seat. "Is that your car?" I asked. "Yes," "I didn't know you own a car" "That's because I don't usually
