Lucian and Arabella Revenge Broken
Chapter 13Arabella sat in the window seat of her bedroom, over looking the forest. All was silent this night, even the house did not moan and groan as it settled for the night. This would have been her wedding night. She mulled it over again in her mind as she thought about Evan. The silence played into her dark thoughts. Arabella was grateful Lucas was at Jack’s. She did not want him to feel her thoughts. Lucas was growing into his own gifts one of them being his ability to feel sadness. She did not know if that was a gift or a curse. Only time would tell. Soon, it would be two O’clock and the world slept.As she thought about Evan, a slight frown marred her brow. All in all, Evan had taken the broken engagement, so close to the wedding day, well. He did not care about the money already spent on Boulder’s most lavish wedding. Evan was not so much as hurt as it was that he half way expected it. He grinned boyishly as he spoke to her.“I get it Ari, that is one of the things I love ab

She changed who he was and challenged what he believed in. She brought him out of his complacency and gave him reason to fight for himself. He looked back on the life he lived these last years and was not happy with what he saw. He was not living’ he was just going through the motions. Not anymore.

Chapter 15Arabella stared down at the letter crumbled in her trembling hands. She could feel anger begin to rise up inside of her. How dare he? The arrogance of the man! Arabella could hardly breath as anger threatened to overwhelm her. She slammed her fist into the wall, trying to relieve the pressure before she did something stupid, like ripping Lucian.s head off..“You Alexanders are all alike, aren’t you?” She whispered, a tear shimmering on her lashes, “Always taking what you want and hang the rest of us.”Arabella received the letter in the afternoon post; a Solicitor’s heading on the envelope.

You wanted to know your dad and this is a great opportunity for you.” Arabella smiled as she ruffled Lucas’s hair.“But mom, who will look after you and Thorn and gramps?” Lucas looked at Arabella with worry in his eyes. “I don’t think they have fishing in New York.”Arabella laughed, “Lucas, they have the finest museums there and broadway shows and so much more. Soak up all you can and see it as a learning experience. We will be all right and will be happy when you come home.” She could not let Lucas see how much she would miss him.Lucian had asked for this month with Lucas through Arabella’s Lawyer.

Lucian and Arabella Lost and Alone
Chapter 17“Geez Arabella, its been 3 days already. Time to wake up.” Sybil whispered. She sat crossed legged on a natural stone ledge that ran along one wall of the cave. Sybil was nervous; Arabella hadn’t woken once from the dream state she was in. Sybil tried to be patient, after all, Arabella was suppose to sleep while the memory of love faded. Still, Sybil was nervous. She had the awful feeling that she did something wrong.Sybil worked through the layers in her head. She followed all the steps she seen Mother do. Sybil did not admit to Arabella that this was the first time Sybil ever did anything like this. She was better at giving memories not taking away love. After all, what could go wrong?Arabella groaned as though she was in pain. Sybil started to sweat as she watched Arabella twist on the floor. ‘Now this is something new,’ Sybil thought. ‘Not good, not good at all.’ She didn’t see this happen when Mother did it. Sybil jumped down off the ledge and went to Arabella’s side.
Lucian and Arabella One Year Later
Chapter 18Arabella felt a sense of freedom. She slowly remembered everything but did not feel the pain of remembering. She was finally free of the love that haunted her from the time she was fifteen years old. Arabella no longer felt anything for the pompous Mr Alexander. There was no anger, no love, no hate, nothing at all. For the first time in years, Arabella didn’t know what she wanted. All of her life was centered around her parents and Lucian Alexander. Sybil took all pain from Arabella’s heart. Now she could remember her parents with fondness and not pain. She did not hate Adrian any longer either, but he was still not allowed around her son. The memories of Lucian were there, but that was all, they became faded memories Finally, it was all gone. Arabella did not notice the lone tear that traveled down her pale cheek.“Come on mom, let’s go. I want to put in some time on the ice.” Lucas’s impatience at Arabella only made her laugh. He was old enough to be chosen for the junior
Lucian and Arabella Love So Blind
Chapter 19Lucian stood on the steps outside the ice rink, longing written all over his face. Anyone looking at Lucian would see a man so in love that the world just past him by for those few moments.There, right in front of him, stood Arabella with Lucas. Lucas turned and ran into the building, leaving Arabella on her own until another boy captured her attention. That boy ran into the building too; was this his chance? He cleared his throat thinking about what he wanted to say. At first she stepped aside; then she turned toward him, slowly looking up his chest to his face. At first there was a smile on her face, at least until she saw who it was. The smile faded quickly and she started to turn away.“Arabella! Bella, please just talk to me.” Lucian pleaded with Arabella. She turned and looked at him again. Her eyes were blank, as though she didn’t know him. The cut was deep, but Lucian was determined. He would find a way to bring her back to him. He found it ironic that he now rememb
Lucian and Arabella Heart of Fire
Chapter 20Where time mean’t nothing, Sybil kneeled on the floor. The stone cut into her knees but she dared not complain or the punishment would be a lot worse. This, really, was mild compared to some of the things Mother punished her with. Why, once, that Goddess made her eat with the dragons. Disgusting. They kept breathing fire, eating and pooping and boy could they poop…“SYBIL!!!! Are you listening? Or have you gone off on one of your various trances? Now pay attention.”Sybil jerked when Mother yelled her name. How did she know that she, Sybil, was daydreaming anyway? Oh, yeah, maybe the glassy eyes gave her away. She jerked again when something landed hard on the stone floor.“You will find the spell that you cast over Arabella or I will do worse then dragons.” Mother was very angry and punctuated every single word to make sure the girl did not misunderstand. “Stand.” Mother orderedSybil nimbly jumped to her feet. It disgruntled Mother that Sybil could still be so spry after
