She's With Me Now Novels & Stories

She looked up when I came in. "You look better," she said. "The plan is moving." I set my jacket over the chair. "Both mechanisms are in place." "Tell me later." She stood and came around the island and did something she hadn't done in days, put her hands on either side of my face and looked at me directly, no agenda in her expression, just the particular clarity of someone who has decided to be fully present for a moment. "Tonight I don't want to hear about mechanisms." I looked at her.

she says, and I feel how vulnerable she is right now. "I promise. I just need today to get everything sorted out, ok? I wish we could just be in our bed right now, but soon baby." I tell her "Okay..." she says before she kisses me. I kiss her back and then get up to lead her to where my sisters are with the beta and gamma females. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

she ended. “Here with me,” I replied, locking eyes with her.

I’m choosing her. Right here. Right now. Even if it kills me.

Finally, she spoke through clenched teeth, “Zayden, a life is at stake. I can’t just stand by.” Without another word, she turned around and left. I watched her walk away before picking up the cold coffee in front of me to pour it onto the floor. It felt like something lost that could never be recovered. Then, I pulled out my phone and called Julian. “Mr. Moore, I’m in the neighboring city. I’ll visit you later.” I went straight to Moore Corp’s branch in that city. Julian was inspecting the office. When he saw me, he did not look surprised.

She sat down, smoothing the folds of her coat before looking directly at him. It couldn't. Silence lingered between them for a moment. Then she spoke. I've been thinking about us. Harry frowned slightly. What about us? She lowered her eyes briefly before meeting his gaze again. You've changed. His expression remained unreadable. I don't know what you mean. I think you do. She gave a quiet laugh, though it lacked its usual warmth. Whenever we're together now, you're somewhere else. Harry leaned back in his chair. I've been busy.

I didn't want to waste my time on false niceties with them. I heard him complaining and grumbling in the background. Chelsea muttered softly, "It seems like I came at the wrong time. Well, I guess I should go then. Why else would she leave right after seeing me?" "No!" Cedric held her back. "Don't go. If she wants to leave, then let her!" Hearing the conversation between them, I felt peace within me as I waited for the elevator. Had it been in the past, I'd have flipped right there and then. But now, I wasn't the least bit affected by what went on between them. It seemed like I'd truly let go of things.

She said with a sweet smile. Who the fuck does the even think she is right now?!

She looked out the window, the sun was already setting and the silence of the night was fast approaching. Taking another deep breath, she rubbed her belly. “Don’t you dare leave us yet, little one. You still have a world to meet, and a whole life to live.”

She sat in front of Leah and Lindsey while Libby nonchalantly leaned against the damp walls. ‘Wait, you’re not mentally unstable and on drugs?’ Lindsey asked Libby. ‘Deranged would be the right word.’ Leah mumbled. Libby rolled her eyes and scrawled. Cami smiled at each one of her teenage daughters. Her heart burst with joy that had she had been deprived of for so many years. They were finally together again. ‘Then everyone thinks you’re the one hooked on drugs.’ Lindsey looked at Leah and cringed. Leah slapped her forehead, ‘I’m so dead.’
