Chapter 2

BPOV

Hell, that is where I am. My entire body hurt. I groaned. Who would have thought that the dive team would be a useful skill in everyday life? From all those years, I know how to fall into the water. It's a miracle I didn't hit the propellers though.

"I'm going to kill that son of a bitch." When I get back on shore, I am going to track him down and… Wait, I'm not in the water anymore. I open my eyes to a white ceiling. This is not the dress I was wearing when that asshole threw me overboard. "Where the hell am I?"

"On an island off the coast of South Florida." Who would have thought comas would hurt so much, because there is no way that that voice belongs to human. It sounds like velvet. I looked at the room I was in and saw the most god-like creature; he had a chiseled jaw, deep green eyes and unruly bronze hair that just screams sex. I know for a fact that I am in a coma.

"God, why are you doing this to me. First, Mike throws me overboard, and now I am stuck in this limbo people call a coma. Just let me die already."

"Let me assure you, you are not in a coma. You are on a small private island in the Florida Keys. I saw you floating in the water. Naked, I might add." I blushed at the thought of this beautiful man seeing me naked. Only two men had ever seen me naked. Well now three. He seemed tense as he continued, "now can you please explain what you just said. Particularly the part where you mentioned a Mike throwing you overboard."

"How about not until you tell me your name, I think I deserve at least that, seeing as how you saw me naked." Great, I'm getting defensive. Why does that always seem to happen when I'm uncomfortable?

"Of course, my name is Edward Cullen. What's yours? I would like to know seeing as how I saw you naked." This crooked little smirk appeared on his face as he said this. I made me forget that I wanted to slap him for throwing my words back at me. Hell, it made me forget my name.

"Um, I'll tell you, but its because you saved my life, not because you saw me naked. Thanks for the clothes by the way."

"Your welcome. Your name please?"

"Yeah sorry, Bella Newton. Soon to be Bella Swan."

"Care to explain why I pulled you out of the ocean? I assume it is connected with the upcoming name change."

"It does indeed. I was on a cruise with my husband, Mike. We have been having some problems lately; he has been distant. I thought that a romantic vacation would solve things. I thought he felt the same, since he is the one that booked the damn cruise. I was obviously wrong, because he threw me overboard." If it was even possible I saw Edward tense up even more. His jaw was clenched and his hands were balled up into fists, knuckles white.

" What is wrong, with just a plain old divorce, why did he have to resort to murder?"

I just shrugged. I was relatively sure I knew the reason he tried to kill me, and not just file for divorce, but I didn't feel comfortable sharing the reason with a man that I just met.

"Anyway, let focus on other things. Such as getting back up on your feet again, then I will call my brother in Miami to deal with the scumbag."

I nodded. That sounded really good. Right now I want something to eat and then sleep for a week. Edward seemed to know just what I was thinking.

"Ok, well, you have had a long day, you must he hungry. I made you some soup while you were asleep. It was hot, probably not anymore though. No solid food quite yet, it'll be too rough on your system."

I barely heard what he was saying. Cold or not, this soup was fantastic. Not sure if it was because of what I had been through and was starving, or it was just that good. I chose not to think about it and just eat it. I was done in a matter of minutes when I heard Edward chuckle from beside me.

"I take it the soup was good then?"

I nodded in response.

"You need to sleep now, I'll take this." He said picking up the bowl. "Good night Bella."

"Wait!" I said as he turned. "Where are you going to sleep?"

"On the couch."

"What! No. You come sleep in your bed and I will take the couch. I am not going to put you out in your own home." I started to get up, hiding the whimpers of pain that were threatening to escape.

"Don't be absurd Bella. After everything that you have been through, you need a good night sleep on a proper bed. There is no changing my mind on this. I can be quite stubborn according to my ex-wives. Also, my mother would kill me if she found out there was a woman sleeping on my couch if I was sleeping in my bed. So once again, good night Bella." He smiled and left the room.

"Good night Edward" I called out. It hurt to move and that is the only reason he is getting away with this. I can be just a stubborn. I snuggled farther into the bed. I was in desperate need of a shower but I didn't care, I just wanted sleep. The pillow had a musky scent to it, manly, but not overly so. I smiled at the smell that obviously belonged to Edward and thought back to the little prefix that he said during his little rant. 'Ex-', Edward was single. With that I fell into a comfortable sleep.
