Eleven
Adam hears her words and feels them as they pierce his heart. This girl, she can get to him like no other. He feels this draw to her like he has never felt with anyone else. Inside of him, he feels this need to please her.
But he also feels this need to keep her.
He is at war deep within himself. A part of him wants to let her go. Let her go home to her father and to her life. Let her travel the world and absolve the guilt that she feels over losing her mother. He wants to give her for her dreams and her freedom.

Beauty and the Alpha Twelve
A few hours later Bella sits on the floor looking through her stack of DVDs. She knows that DVDs have pretty much become a thing of the past, what with media streaming platforms bringing movies right to the TV with just a click of a button. Still, Bella prefers buying the DVDs and stacking them on her shelf. She likes such an odd assortment of films that are sometimes hard to find on certain platforms. At her home, her father told her that she could get a subscription to whatever she wanted, but still, she prefers to buy the movies. She only uses the Roku and channels to watch a few of her favorite television shows. Her friends use to accuse her of living in the stone ages, reading paperback books, and buying movi

Adam calls her name and she reluctantly turns to face him, dreading what he might say if he noticed her odd behavior. “Hmm?” Bella looks at him over her shoulder and he is watching her closely. “Um, this is nice. I enjoyed spending time with you, watching movies and everything.” “Oh, yeah. Me too.” Bella smiles. “It was good.” “Maybe we could do it again sometime,” Adam says, but it sounds like more of a question.

Bella tugs her tiny sleep shorts up her thighs until the waistband rides low on her hips. Pulling down the tank top to cover the elastic band of the shorts, she is ready for bed. The pink fuzzy clock on her bedside table tells her that it is only twenty-two minutes after seven, but she is bored and restless. She can not focus on a movie or a book, so that pretty much limits her forms of entertainment down to nothing. She can't go for a walk or anything to burn off the restless energy that she is brimming with and another bath is out of the question. Seeing nothing else to do, Bella climbs into bed. It has been almost an hour since Adam left and as she suspected

Adam turns to look at Bella, who is sound asleep on the bed beside of him. After the movie Tag, they decided to watch the 2018 Halloween movie, because she swore that she loved Michael Myers. When she heard him say that he had never seen them she had lost her mind. “What? You have never seen a Halloween movie?” She gave him this look as if to ask him which rock had he just crawled out from under. “Uh, I don't watch movies or tv.” Adam had told her and she shook her head, clearly finding that concept unfathomable.

“Who is Jake?” “What?” Bella asks, pulling away from embracing his body. Her relief at him being okay gives way to confusion over his abrupt change of topic. “Jake.” Adam repeats the name like it should mean something to her. Is he talking about Jake Johnson, who she mentioned having a crush on? “The actor from-” “No. With Lumi. You both spoke of a man named Jake that you claimed to be in love with. Was it the actor from last night or a different Jake? Because you claimed to be in love with him as well.”

Apparently, they had seen Bella has encroaching on their territory or something because they had attacked. Brutally. The girls and Bella had physical education that morning and the coach decided that making them run laps in the hot eighty-six-degree sun had been the way to go. So Bella had put on her PE uniform, the black shorts and the white tee shirt. Setting off on her laps, she was soon swarmed by the girls who got behind her and kept stepping on the backs of her shoes, trying to trip her. Spurred on, she ran as hard and fast as she could to get away from them, exerting herself to the point of exhaustion. At one point the girls caught up to her and messed with her some more, which resulted in her tripping and falling, scraping her knees and palms on the asphalt.

Well, that went well. Adam smacks the kitchen counter angrily as he swears. “Damn it!” Adam had not meant to act like an ass and anger her. He had just let his stupid jealousy get the better of him. Then when he had felt such a monumental sense of relief at Jake being a fictional character, he had tried to hide it by making an off-hand comment. He had no way of knowing that it would set her off and he still did not fully understand the blazing anger she had directed at him, but he still felt bad for setting her off.

Bella was dressed and sitting on the bed, waiting for Adam to come in with the food. She had agreed to have supper with him, confused by the question. They had just eaten breakfast together when he had asked, so she was not sure why he was treating that meal differently. She had wanted to ask Lumi earlier when he had come in for just a moment to give her a hug, but he had left quickly, telling her that Adam was sending him and Cole on a mission. Chad had come in and hung out with her for a while, playing Minecraft on the Xbox with her for about an hour, but she knew a seven-year-old was not likely to have the answers she sought.
