Reborn as Elena Scarlet Chapter 44: Fragile steps
Adrian’s POV“Lucien, can you remember what really happened between Adrian and Bella?” Kade asked as we entered our private lounge.“Bella was trying to kiss you… but you refused. You caught her wrists, told her to pull herself together. That was it.” He breathed the words like they barely mattered. His gaze drifted to the side, as though his mind was elsewhere entirely.I let out a quiet breath of relief and leaned back on the sofa.“What’s up, Lucien? You look like something’s disturbing you,” Kade pressed. I glanced at Lucien, and realized he wasn’t okay.“I’m okay,” Lucien muttered, flashing Kade a brief look.Kade shrugged, unwilling to drag it further. “I’ll be heading home early. See you guys tomorrow.” He rose, swung his sleek designer bag across his shoulder, and walked out.The room fell into silence—until my phone buzzed sharply against the glass table. The screen lit up with my father’s name. My stomach dropped. A familiar dread found its way through my chest. That feeli

Tessa’s POV (as Elena)It was Sports Day—one of Bella’s most exciting days of the week, so I expected to find her buzzing with energy.“Hey, Bella,” I beamed as I stepped into our private lounge, ready to be greeted with her usual bright smile.“Hi,” she responded softly, her face clouded with something that looked like worry.I stood still for a moment. Bella never sounded like this.“What’s wrong? You don’t look yourself,” I asked curiously, tilting my head toward her.“It’s okay, Elena,” she said calmly. It was so unlike her that my suspicion grew even stronger.“And why aren’t you preparing for your ballerina routine? That’s your favorite part of today.”Just then, her phone screen lit up. She immediately stood up, snatched it from the table, and glanced at it quickly. Her expression tightened before she muttered, “See you later,” and hurried out the door without another word.I let out a long sigh, confused by her behavior. I dropped a textbook I had borrowed from the library on
Reborn as Elena Scarlet Chapter 42: Whispers at the Beach
Bella’s POVI had a date that evening with Lucien—he had texted me a few minutes ago, as a reminder.But first, I needed to go with Emris to Elena’s house to check on her.On our way there, I noticed Emris’s mood was somehow strange. Although he was more of an introvert, today he seemed even more withdrawn.“Don’t tell me there’s no poor girl for you to go through this week,” I joked, trying to shake him out of whatever cloud hovered over him.“Please, Bella,” he said firmly, as his eyes darted away.“Hey, what’s wrong?” I pressed. “You don’t look fine, Emris.”“I am fine, Bella,” he responded with a sigh.“You can talk to me, Emris.” I reached over and held his hand. His gaze flashed towards me for a second. “Recently I feel like we’ve not really been talking, you know.” He smiled faintly and pulled his hand away. “It’s okay, Bella.”“Okay,” I shrugged as we both stepped down from the car.***“Hello, Mother,” we greeted as we walked into Elena’s house.“Bella, how are you doing?

Adrian’s POV“Elena,” I called out as she went limp in my arms, and became unconscious.I scooped her up from the floor, as my heart raced, and strode quickly toward the door. My P.A swung it open in haste, already signaling the drivers.“Elena,” I whispered again, holding her face gently as we rushed into the car. Her cheeks felt cold, her skin pale, fragile—like she could shatter at any second.For the first time in what felt like forever, there was no anger, no resentment inside me. Only one wish: that she would be well.We pulled up at their family hospital—one of the best in the city and headed straight to the emergency ward.Few minutes later, I paced restlessly in the hallway, unable to sit, my wrist trembling the way it always did whenever fear got the better of me. I hadn’t felt that kind of raw fear in years.I sat beside her later, still not believing I had actually taken that seat.Her lashes fluttered, her eyes opened slowly. “Are you okay?” I asked, my voice coming softer

Tessa’s POV (as Elena)I smiled, trying not to show my fears. Chloe’s smirk faded instantly, dissolving into quiet sobs.“Elena was cold and strict—very strict. She rarely smiled. And that… that was what I loved about her,” she whispered, her voice trembling.I tilted my head in surprise. “Really?”She nodded quickly.“But these days you smile—at almost every fan,” she wiped her face with the back of her hand. “I don’t like that,” she added, with a childlike stubbornness in her tone.“I’m sorry, okay?” I told her, extending my hands. She grabbed them immediately, holding me with desperate eyes.I softened my voice. “I want you to know something, Chloe. Change happens as we grow. If we stay the same forever, then we aren’t really living. We’d be machines, not human beings.”Her brows furrowed. “Is that why I feel all these… strange emotions lately?”“What emotions?” I asked gently, trying to keep the smile on my face.She leaned forward, whispering as if it were a confession. “I saw
Reborn as Elena Scarlet Chapter 39: Exposed
Tessa’s POV (as Elena)I wiped my face with my hands as I sat upright on the bed.When would all this end?I was just a young girl fighting for her life, and now this?I had gone to the hospital three times, but nothing—no hint about how we were supposed to switch back. And now, I had to wait for some spirit… till heaven knows when?Zane’s call dragged me out of my thoughts.“Hey, Zane.”“Hey,” he said softly, almost in a whisper.“Come outside. I’m right at your door.”I blinked in surprise, “Okay.”I stood up and headed out.Zane was sitting in his car, leaning casually against the window. He wore a black leather jacket, ripped jeans, messy dark hair falling over his forehead, and that careless smirk that said he didn’t care what anyone thought.He signaled for me to hop in, and the moment I did, he sped away.We ended up at a private beach resort, and I couldn’t help wondering what we were doing there.“Hey, El,” he said with a smile, though his eyes were serious. “Back when you tol
