Bella's POVWhat I saw shocked me. His eyes did not have any hatred. He was staring at me with love, care, concern, pity, determination and pride.I did not understand. "I am sorry that you had to go through all this. I wish I was there to protect you, gosh I am such a terrible mate." he said as he started to blame himself."NO! You are not. It's not your fault. Please do not blame yourself please." I tried to tell him. "How is it not? I was not there when you were hurting." he said back."But you are here now. That is what matters." I said trying to stop him from blaming himself. He just let out a sigh. To make him feel better, I hugged him and rubbed his back and said it's not his fault.He hugged me back tightly and hid his face and sniffed me to calm himself down. I slowly rubbed his hair to comfort him. I was feeling happy all of a sudden. Not sad anymore knowing he was there for me.Suddenly he started to kiss my neck that was

Bella's POVI felt something soft underneath me. I cuddled into it more. It was so warm and comforting. I heard a heartbeat coming from the pillow. That is weird.I felt something soft stroking my cheeks and warm air at my forehead. As I slowly opened my eyes, I saw Xavier gazing at me lovingly. I realised that my head was resting at his chest and my legs were tangled with his while we were cuddling each other.Sensing our position, I start to blush. When he saw this he let out a chuckle. He gave me a peck on my forehead and looked at me again.I was looking back at his eyes. His eyes were so beautiful. They were as blue as the sky. I want to keep looking at them and never look away.He slowly starts to lean in. When I realised what he was about to do, I turned my head away. "What happened? Did I do something wrong?" he asked me in worry and sadness.I quickly shook my head. I covered my mouth and said, "

Bella's POVI heard two very familiar voices."Bella?".I turned to the source of the sound. There I saw them. My two best friends. Alec and Avery. I stood up and sprinted towards them and hugged them.We were in a group hug. I was crying. We were smiling at each other. "I missed you guys so much." I said as I smiled like a kid just found her parents after years."You have no idea how much we missed you." Avery said. "Yeah, you have a lot of explaining to do girl." Alec said as he raised his eyebrows.Soon I heard a growl and arms were wrapped around me. I saw behind to see Xavier frowning. "Mine." he snarled out at Alec.When I look back at both of them, they have given me the look which says 'explain now.' I sighed. "Xavier met my friends Alec and Avery, guys meet Xavier." I said.Xavier just nodded at them, while they just nodded their head back awkwardly. Xavier dismissed the two people that

 Bella's POVI was staring at the couple that was standing in front of me in confusion. Not only me but also Xavier. On the other hand, the couple was looking at me with shock faces."Y-You're, you're.." Xavier's mum asked no one in particular, while pointing at me. "Hi" I waved awkwardly, not knowing what to say.Seeing this, Xavier spoke up. "Love meet my parents, Raffaele and Aurora Romano. Father, Mother, meet my mate, Bella knight." As soon as my name left Xavier's lips both of them gasped. I did not understand what was going on. "Dear, if you don't mind may I know your parents name?" Xavier's father asked me. I nodded my head."Diego and Kiara knight." I said as with confusion. When they both heard that, they visibly stiffened. "Oh dear, you have no idea how long we have been searching for you."

Bella's POVWe were eating in comfortable silence, until Xavier's mum spoke. "So son, have you completed the mating process?" and when she said that finish, I heard Xavier cough while I sat there not understanding.Xavier looked up from his plate while his father looked nervous sitting there. "MUM!" Xavier whispered, yelled at his mother and looked at me.I just gave him a questioning look. His mother found this amusing as she just chuckled. "What? I want my grandchildren." she said as she gave an innocent look.My eyes went wide as the saucers. I looked between his mother and him. I blushed and face down. "Darling I think you should calm down." Xavier's father told his wife.She just pouted and continued eating. Well that escalated fast. Soon we were finished. We went to the living room with Xavier's phone.He excused himself and kissed my forehead, and went off to answer. After he went, his parents turned to me. "Thank you for forgiving us
