Edward

I knew that Bella was going to be a pain in my ass since the day she touched my face. I knew the humans would consider her drop-dead gorgeous. She was no comparison to my Ara. Her beauty isn't what spared her that day. It was the fire mixed with tenderness that I saw in her eyes. She had Ara’s tender grace but possessed an intensity that Ara lacked.

As I was reliving that moment my dream plagued me and was confusing as it didn't conform to all of them before. This dream transported me back to them selecting Bella and how she reacted as the spell was performed. She almost welcomed my presence. That made me curious about her. I chuckled to myself. Hell, it made me claim her and bind her soul to mine. Suddenly the dream shifted. Nights had always been restless even before I became The Beast. Dreams were never just dreams for me. They served as glimpses of a past I could never escape, fragments of a life stolen too soon.

    BellaMonths pass…It had been several months since that fateful night, and the world had transformed in ways that seemed almost unbelievable. Edward and I had not only regained our rightful place on the throne, but we had also restored peace to the Fae kingdoms. After years of conflict, rebellion, and violence, we had finally brought about order, compelling even the most resistant factions to recognize the importance of unity.Edward had stayed true to his word, showering those he had wronged with opulence and luxury. In those rare moments of tranquility, when I wasn't haunted by the past or grieving for the fallen, I discovered a sense of peace that I never thought possible. I found myself caught in a whirlwind of emotions, trying to navigate the complexities of loving three very different men. Yet, amidst the chaos, I had never felt happier. I had found my true home in the hearts of these remarkable men.I had finally found my place in the world, surrounded by love and acceptance.

  • Shadows Of Goodbye   Chapter 33: A New World

    BellaKing Edward's arms enveloped me tightly as he stood before the court, his voice unwavering and powerful despite the weariness etched into his features. "Aunt, it is a relief to be back home," he declared, his words laced with both affection and authority. "Release my family from their imprisonment. Father's reign of terror has come to an end. The Darkness has been vanquished. I am restored to myself, with two remarkable new brothers who have faithfully served our queen. Bella must be given time to heal and recuperate. We can address the remaining matters tomorrow."His aunt's expression softened, a glimmer of pride breaking through her stoic facade. With a deep curtsy that brushed the floor, she replied, "As you wish, my King."With a swift movement, Edward spun on his heel, effortlessly carrying me as if I were weightless. His steps were purposeful and unwavering, leading us through the palace with determination. My head rested against his chest, his heartbeat a calming rhythm

  • Shadows Of Goodbye   Chapter 32: Bring The Light

    EdwardI lifted Bella into my arms as her legs buckled, struggling slightly under her increased weight. She felt like a solid block of marble, her new form exuding a faint aura of power. Disgust filled me as I surveyed the unnecessary destruction left in my father's path. Stepping out of the room, I observed the servants gathered outside, then gestured back towards the chaos within. My other selves followed closely behind, poised to aid me at a moment's notice."Gather the fallen. They followed my commands until their last breaths, true warriors deserving of honor," I declared, my voice filled with reverence. Pausing for a moment, I let out a deep sigh before continuing, "And as for the rest of you, your loyalty and service, though coerced, will be rewarded with a life of opulence and luxury."A wave of surprise washed over their faces as a few of them hurried into the room to retrieve the bodies of my fallen guards. As they lifted the fallen, I gazed at the faces of those who remaine

  • Shadows Of Goodbye   Chapter 31: Dark Power

    Bella“Bella!” Edward’s voice broke through the haze, panic laced in his tone. The fire in my veins erupted, and I screamed as the room filled with blinding light. The pain struck like a lightning bolt, sharp and unforgiving, coursing through every vein and bone in my body. I screamed, clutching my chest as the heat inside me burned hotter and brighter. The first change came with a searing sensation across my back. I arched in agony as my skin tore, giving way to something new. Wings burst forth in a fiery inferno, massive and powerful, their cerulean with purple edges shimmering with iridescent hues of gold patterns throughout. I fell to my knees, gasping for breath, only to realize that the transformation was far from over. A searing heat enveloped my head...a halo? Its weight was both chilling and electrifying. My hands shook as I witnessed my nails elongate and sharpen, gleaming like obsidian tinged with a fiery red in the dim light. They had become claws, sinister and retractab

  • Shadows Of Goodbye   Chapter 30: Confronting Darkness

    BellaI paced back and forth in Edward's chambers, my heart pounding in my chest as I heard the commotion outside the door. The muffled shouts of the guards barely reached my ears over the deafening storm raging outside. The rain hammered against the windows, each drop a frantic warning."Stay calm," I whispered to myself, my hands gripping the edges of the wooden chair.The knot of unease in my stomach tightened as Edward's words echoed in my mind. He had told me to trust the guards he had assigned to protect me, but something felt off. The shouts grew louder, accompanied by the sound of something heavy crashing to the ground. Someone was out there, and they were getting closer. Suddenly, the door burst open as if it were made of paper. Two guards stumbled into the room, their weapons falling to the floor. I stood frozen, my eyes widening as a figure stepped into the doorway.He stood before me, towering over me with a terrifying presence that sent shivers down my spine. His regal de

  • Shadows Of Goodbye   Chapter 29: Darkness Returns

    EdwardA deafening crash reverberated through the room, causing me to snap awake, my heart pounding in my chest. Bella had been restless in my embrace all night, her restless movements a silent omen. It wasn't just her agitation that had me on edge. This was something greater, something I had feared. A tempest was approaching, one that demanded my attention.I bolted upright, torn between my promise to stay by Bella's side and the undeniable pull toward the source of the sound. The castle loomed large, but my legs moved with purpose, guided by instinct. I knew exactly where I needed to go - the dining hall.As I entered, my heart turned to stone. There sat my father, on my throne, radiating his usual air of smug superiority. His presence seemed to cast a shadow over the entire room, chillin it to its core. The torchlight flickered, casting an eerie glow on his pale face, twisted into a condescending smirk."Father!" I roared, my voice shaking the very foundations of the castle.He rem
