My head pounded like a drum, and I felt like I was stuck in quicksand. I tried to move my left hand to massage my temples but couldn't; it was as if someone was holding it.

Groaning, I slowly opened my eyes, slightly hazy. Once they cleared, they started adjusting to the brightness of the room. The first thing I saw was Luca, staring at me, looking worried as if he was concerned about me.

"Hey, are you okay?" He asked, caressing my hand. I smiled weakly, unable to respond to him. I felt too w

  • My Sister’s Ex boyfriend Is My Mate   148: Double Date

    “Was it too late to back out of this?” I kept asking myself the question until I found myself sitting at the same table as Nora and Noah.The two of them were feeding each other, smiling and laughing, while I was trying my hardest not to look like I didn’t belong there.It’s like I’m the third wheel of their relationship. "You know, Noah, Bella also loves to read," Nora said right after Noah mentioned he loves reading. As if being there wasn’t punishment enough, Nora was doing everything she could to make Noah and me have a conversation. It wasn’t like I didn’t want to speak with him. I did. But don’t fancy talking to him about what I liked and didn’t like.I wanted to speak to him about all the nonsense he had said the night before, because at that moment a part of me saw it as reality, and I was scared that everything he mentioned was true."Oh, that’s good," He said, clearly trying to avoid a conversation with me.I didn’t understand why he was acting this way. First, he had don

  • My Sister’s Ex boyfriend Is My Mate   147: The Nightmare

    The forest was foggy, the wind was blowing heavily, and the rain was pouring hard. I didn’t understand how all three were happening at the same time.It was real, but at the same time, it felt very unreal.I stayed where I stood, looking around in confusion. I have no idea how I got here or why I am even here, all I know is that I saw myself here and now I’m trapped. "Hello," I called out, my voice echoing through the place. My knees felt weak as my heart raced faster and faster. "Anyone there?" I asked when I heard whispers sounding all around me. "Bella!" Someone called out from behind me. I quickly turned around, but there was no one.My heart dropped as fear surged through me. I heard my name again and looked around, but still saw no one. This happened over and over again until suddenly the voices stopped, and I found myself rooted in place.Panic surged through my veins. I wanted to step forward and try to find an escape, but I was scared of moving. I didn’t want to fall into

  • My Sister’s Ex boyfriend Is My Mate   146: Jim’s Nightmare

    ~ NOAH’S POVI freaked her out.Why did I fucking do that? I wasn’t supposed to talk to her about them.Weeks of planning, gone. I had thought about this before, gone over it again and again, hoping I’d start by being her friend first, then slowly talk her into listening to me.None of that happened. Now I’m sure she thinks I’m some crazy, weird man.I sighed heavily, hating my own actions, and walked back to the tent. Jim was there, biting his nails intensely. Something has been off about him. Since the day I met him, he’s been acting strange, more restless than he lets on."Hey, what’s wrong?" I asked as I stepped closer.He didn’t respond right away. His eyes stayed on the floor before he finally looked up at me. "You’re Bella’s friend, right?""Not exactly," I said."But you seemed close today. I saw you talking to her.""Yes, I was," I replied, then hesitated. "By the way, I wanted to ask you about the nightmares you mentioned."His eyes snapped open. "It’s not just nightmares. I

    LUCA’S POV The weather felt warm as the trees around me grew. She looked around, smiling at me, her hair waving in the same direction as mine. "Luca." She turned to face me, her radiant smile growing. "Come with me." She held her hand out to me. For some reason, I hesitated. I couldn’t believe she was here. My Bella was here, and she was speaking to me. I reached out to hold her hand, but suddenly she vanished. I looked around, shocked and completely confused. "Bella!" I called out, but there was no response. My eyes moved everywhere. She was here before. I saw her. "Bella!" I called again. Still, she didn’t respond. My heart started racing in my chest as my eyes began welling up. I can’t lose her again. I can’t. "Bella, please, if you’re hearing me, please come back. Say something," I cried out. Silence was all that met me. "Bella." I fell to the ground. "Please come back. Please," I begged. "I can’t lose you. Please." Suddenly, I heard a ruffle from behind me. I snapped my

  • My Sister’s Ex boyfriend Is My Mate   144: Remember

    BELLA’S POVThis feels like the worst time to be alive. Nora is all over that creepy guy, Jim has been bugging me to listen to him, and now here I am, standing in front of my tent, watching everyone have the best night ever while I’m feeling hopeless and empty, like I don’t belong anywhere.I crossed my arms over my chest as I kept looking at them, my fingers digging into my sleeves. Nora seems happy, and I like that for her, I really do, but I just can’t bring myself to trust Noah around her. He’s a creep, and I feel like he’s only with Nora to get close to me, like I’m the real reason he’s here.There’s just something about him that makes me not want to trust him, something I can’t explain no matter how hard I try.As they kept dancing, Nora glanced at me, smiled, and waved. I waved back, forcing a smile of my own. She turned to Noah, whispered something to him, then turned back to face me.She started walking toward me. For a second, I thought she was going to sit with me, but then

  • My Sister’s Ex boyfriend Is My Mate   143: In My Head

    LUCA’S POVI drove back to the cabin like a madman, my heart pounding against my rib cage and my mind blasting with thoughts I can’t handle. Madrid was about to leave, and I couldn’t let her.She was the only one who could help me right now.I sped through the trees, swerving around them, nearly killing myself more than once. I had never driven this fast in my life, not even when I’d needed to be rushed to the hospital.When I reached the cabin, I slammed the brakes, jumped out of the car, and burst inside. Madrid flinched in horror as she pushed her suitcase towards me in defense but I quickly dodged it. "What the fuck Luca!" She growled "You can’t leave," I said, breathless."Why? What happened?" She asked, worry creeping into her voice.I stepped closer. I was in such a hurry that I hadn’t thought about what I would say or how I would convince her. "I need your help.""For what?""This is going to sound crazy," I said, gesturing for her to sit, "but I promise you it’s not.""Wh
