Jacob And Bella Novels & Stories

Jake hesitated. She noticed. “Say it.” “They’re going to use me,” he said. That landed hard. Bella’s power flared. Not outward, inward. Tight and furious. “Oh,” she said quietly. “Absolutely not.” “That reaction,” Jake said. “That’s exactly why.” She stepped closer, crossing the line. The room shuddered. Jake’s breath caught. “Listen to me,” Bella said, voice low and dangerous. “I don’t care what bargains you’ve made. I don’t care what role you think you’re playing. If they try to make you a lever”

The oblivious joy with which he engaged with my son suggested an instinctive connection. Mike, usually reserved and cautious around strangers, displayed a remarkable ease with Alpha Jacob. The way he reciprocated the playfulness was nothing short of astonishing as if he had found in Jacob a confidant rather than a stranger. Alpha Peter stood by my side, his demeanor thoughtful and his words carrying a weight that matched the gravity of the situation. “Bella,” he began, breaking the charged silence, “I wanted to let you know about Alpha Jacob. The pack warriors, and even his beta, were struggling mere minutes ago to keep him calm. His wolf is restless especially after finding its mate”

Almost immediately Jake appeared at my side, his smile charming and reassuring. "Hey, Bella, how's it going? I see you're getting a lot of attention today." He placed a possessive hand on my shoulder, and I felt a surge of unease. I knew he was just trying to save face in front of his employees deceiving them into believing we were a loving couple. Fake!

“Look at you, young lady! How much you have grown already.” Bellatrix giggled as she scooted in his arms before she went to Uncle Jake and hugged him as well. “And she’s wearing a dress.” Jace snickered. Bellatrix huffed before rolling her eyes playfully. “You know I won’t if it’s not necessary. But I don’t have a choice tonight.” “You look lovely, sweetheart. Don’t mind Jace’s teasing.” Uncle Jake told her, and she smiled warmly at him. “Thank you! By the way, I was sent here to welcome you as Alpha Caleb and Luna Anya, with Dad, are still in the meeting room with Alpha Grant and the rest of the Council Heads. But they said it will be done soon.” She explained.

It's no other person than Max. What's he doing? Does he want to make life harder than it already is for me? “Come out, come out Bella. You know, I've always known you will never get over the feelings you have for me. Let's just–” A knock interrupted his words and it was Michael, Alpha Draco's beta.

I nudged my lower body a little and realized I had been slick. Afraid to be discovered, I eagerly nodded. "Yeah. A little." Meanwhile, Mrs. Parker was hoisting her bag over her shoulder and passing by the bedroom. "I'm going out to get some groceries for dinner tonight. Any special requests?" Seeing that neither Leo nor Max answered her, I could only speak up. "Baked ribs sound nice." With that, Mrs. Parker headed out. Max looked at me, his gaze gentle, but all I felt in return was an invisible pressure.

Rebecca looked down immediately. "Every time I tried to interfere, Bella defended you." For the first time, saying I don't know sounded absurd even to me. Bella had once told me every detail of her day. Now I couldn't even name the country she was living in. My father pushed his plate away. Then he stood. "The difference between Bella and the rest of you is that she loved this family." He looked at me. "Even when this family didn't love her back." Rebecca was crying openly now.

She looks at me, silent tears falling, she breathes in deeply and nods her head. "I know this isn't ideal Misses Estelle, and honestly I greatly against the idea of leaving a mate behind, but it is the wish of my Beta. And he wants to do what he can to keep you safe. But his word is his law." I hear Jericho say from his seat. He is happy I found my mate, but has also called me a dumbass numerous times from the moment I told him what I was going to do. 'Dumbass.' He says in my head again.

He closed the distance between us, his facade impatient. "It's Bella", I explained, choking on my breath. I saw his eyes darken with unbelief, facial features wrinkling into something I couldn't place. Anger? "You better not play games with me and hit that hammer on the head!", he yelled. "Bella is accused of contracting the rogue that staged Linda's kidnap. And if she did, then she certainly knows who that rogue is". The absurdity hung between us. He sighed loudly, his voice turning calm, but colder now. "And you believe it?"

"Even if he does think that way, he'll get over it. I think he'll be happy for us, baby." "You really think so?" "I do." He says and leans in. Softly pressing his lips against mine. Reassuring me whilst making my worries go away. "Thank you." I whisper against his lips before leaning in again. "Anything for you, Bella." We enjoy each others company before the second alarm of this morning goes off. "We really need to go, Bella. They probably will be waiting for us if we don't hurry and that'll be even more suspicious." Jodhua says, untangling himself from me and getting out of bed.
