Summary Of If He Had Been With Me Novels & Stories

I was calm. Grounded. Like no matter what happened — whether he changed or didn’t — I’d be okay. I had already survived the worst part: losing myself. Now, I was coming back whole. And if he didn’t see that — if he didn’t meet me where I was now — then it wasn’t mine to carry anymore. He messaged me the night I landed. “Let me see you.” And I said yes.

It's gonna be okay. "How?" I wailed. "We barely escaped with our lives intact." "You need to trust us, trust that we know what we're doing." He soothed me. "I'm sorry you had to go through all that. You didn't deserve it." "No, I'm sorry I even met him, to begin with in the first place. I don't even want to think what might have happened if you guys didn't come along. It was horrible, fuck!" I buried my face in my hands.

“Because you’re with me.” I stared at him, the fear and confusion warring with something else…something I couldn’t name. “What now?” He stood, offering me his hand. “Now, we run.” I stared at his outstretched hand, my chest tightening. His words echoed in my mind: Because you’re with me. It wasn’t an apology, but it felt like one. The faint sounds of shouts and hurried footsteps snapped me back to reality. They were still looking for us. There was no time to dwell on anything but survival.

I cried. I told him everything and the look on his face changed, I instantly regretted it. But he did the opposite of what I thought he would do. He pulled me close, “We will figure it out together, one day at a time, right now we need to find that key” But it wasn't here, “I do not have it anymore Mateo im sorry” He hugged me and assured me it didnt matter, but I know it does, and he won't let it go.

,she answered mysteriously which wasn't helpful at all. It was up to me to choose whether I should just leave or go closer. I slowly walked closer not realizing how much in the future I would look back and constantly regret this exact moment,I should have walked away..if I did, I might have never met him,it all would have never happened..just what ifs but I think as I walked closer,my fate was already sealed and I would have to find out the hard way..

"What do you care anyway? You were the one that said he wasn't that into me anyway. Aren't you happy that I am no longer with him?" There was a long pause on the phone. "Hello?" "Gwen, I'm not the enemy here. I only wanted to check on you because I'm worried sick. I trust that you're smart enough and that you'd make a sound decision. Take your time. But please, come back. You still have your whole life ahead of you. What you're going through is only momentarily setback." and then the call ended.

If he left town, she would be with him. Adam nodded thoughtfully. "I'Il have them check." I let out a sigh and turned to Adam who was watching me intently. Groaning, I laid back on the bed. "What?" He asked. I closed my eyes after letting out a deep breath. "This wouldn't have happened if it weren't for me." "What do you mean?" Adam asked. "If I hadn't gone to the meeting, this wouldn't have happened. If I had just not been there, you would have done your job and caught the rogue and this wouldn't be happening. All would be well---"

That stupid sentence is my undoing. Tears burn at the back of my eyes and I struggle to keep them at bay. I already found that man, but he'd forgotten about me the second he met his mate. After everything that happened between us, he hadn't even bothered to say goodbye when I left. All these years I'd hoped my mate would help me forget him. I'd held on to the fact that our connection would tramp every other feeling. Just as how it was supposed to be. How could I have known that he too had already chosen someone else? If I'd found out earlier, would it have made any difference?

Did he feel the same for me as I had for him? I thought back on the last time I had seen Gabe. he had told me he wanted to be with me but that he didn't want to feel like a second choice. I hoped he didn't think I had run away with Damien, ran away from him. I wondered how he would feel if he had known what had happened between Damien and I. Would he be angry, heartbroken, or would he even care at all. Afterall it had been two weeks and he was insanely hot, it would be crazy for me to think that another girl had not tried to make him her man.

Just watched me like I was a problem he’d already solved. “If you had told me I was going to die,” I continued, pacing in front of him, “maybe I wouldn’t have followed you out here. Maybe I would’ve stayed with Nick. You know. With the person I actually love. Instead of wandering into the woods with a man who thinks starvation is self-improvement.” His jaw tightened slightly at that, but his voice stayed level. “If you stay with him, you kill him.” The words landed harder than I expected. I laughed, but it came out wrong. “That’s dramatic.”
