Novel & Cerita Summary Of If He Had Been With Me

How can he be hugging me in bed right now with my parents outside if he doesn’t regret the bet? “No, look at me”, Henry says, cradling my face forcing me to look him in the eyes. “If it wasn’t for that bet, I wouldn’t have met you, and I wouldn’t have gone after you and fell head over heels, I wouldn’t have become the man I am right now, I wouldn’t have put all my life choices in perspective, I wouldn’t have found the love of my life, so no I don’t regret that bet because it got me you, it got us together, as one, as a couple”, Henry says and I feel the butterflies awake again. No one has ever said anything like that to me before, and I honestly hope that Henry is the last one. I can’t even

He was right when he said I had no idea what it means to bear a curse. He is a strong man. One I developed feelings for along the way. I’d not known anything about my identity but when I first saw him, I’d been drawn to him on the spot. From the minute I set my eyes on him, I knew things will never be the way it was before him. I had no idea what a mate bond meant at that time, but I’d known I was attracted to him in a way I’d never been attracted to anyone. I’d thought it was just his looks, but it grew beyond that. I look at him now and I wonder what my life would have been if he wasn’t in it. It he hadn’t showed up at the time we were at our lowest, I’d probably be warming Pablo’s bed now

What would happen to me now? What a great mistake I had made. My life would have been better, if only I hadn't fallen for him. ***

Entirely mine. He was not my fated mate, but with him, I felt a connection that transcended anything I had ever experienced. The bond between us was not a fragile string that could be manipulated or broken, it was a powerful, unspoken understanding that felt more real than any of my past matings. Being with anyone else was now unthinkable for me. He had given me a purpose and a reason to fight for a future I had long thought was out of my reach. The promise of his return, the whispered words from the night before, filled me with a sense of hope I hadn't felt in years.

Then I saw those boarding passes—all of them headed to her—and every sacrifice I'd made felt like a sick joke. On the way to the place where we were supposed to have our mate-bonding ceremony, I kept telling myself maybe he'd gone to the Darkmoon pack for family reasons. But after what I saw today, I finally understood why he never came to see me, even when we were just a mile apart. He knew Vivian was the worst part of my childhood. He knew how much this mate-bonding ceremony meant to me. He knew that public rejection was the most brutal humiliation for a fated mate. And still, he said yes to her.

He followed me, he set up our first meeting. I could tell how badly he wanted this to work, but he was literally willing to give up his life so I would be happy. So I didn't have to give up my life… So I wouldn't have to give up everything I've ever known. Suddenly his thoughts changed. He had opened his eyes and he was wondering why I hadn't done it yet. His mind briefly went to the fact that he still had a chance, and then his eyes found my pouty lips. Before he could even think his next thought, he pulled me to him causing my knife, which I had a very loose grip on to begin with, to slip from my hand and clatter between the door and seat.

His selflessness and love overwhelmed me. "You're always here for me," I whispered, my voice cracking. "Thank you for staying with me." Who knows how it would have been if I had no one with me? Jonathan had always been the one standing by my side. With him lying lifeless on the bed, who would have done this for me? I might have gone down into the pit before anyone would know I had gotten lost.

She had been in that alley after meeting him. In the end, two things that I had regretted the most were not manning up to Santiano and not telling Luke about the whole ordeal. If I had told Luke, he would have helped, he could have prevented me from being a tradeoff considering Santiano treated him like his own flesh and blood, yet I had spent the time sulking and blaming him for getting me involved in this business.

He was my first ever true friend. He cupped my cheek in his warm hand as his eyes danced with raw emotions. "I was in my worst condition when I met you then. You not only saved my life but also my mental health at that time, you were so cute and jolly. After meeting you I realized there's a lot more to life. I was on the brink of giving up on my life and going to my mother. When my father took me back home I was grounded. I wanted to meet you but I couldn't so I studied hard and focused on myself. So I could get on my feet and find you again." He said.

And he called me estranged by my mate. It was difficult to comprehend what he had just said with his hands heavily on my shoulders, pinning me back to the chair. This time, I prayed that Diana would barge through the doors and save me from this jerk. The smile that created his eyes became more dark, and it made his eyes more hollow. Instantly, I began to regret ever wandering off with a man I just met at a flimsy party. "Who are you? What do you want with me?"
