Chapter 10

BPOV

As I lay in bed I felt myself getting more and more vexed, what was Edward keeping from me?

"Bella" Jacob called knocking on the door.

"Not now Jake" His trick earlier had wound me up too much.

After hours of tormenting myself over what Edward was planning I nodded off to sleep.

The following morning when I arrived in work there was a bouquet of flowers that brought an immediate smile to my face, I picked up the card that read Dearest Bella, with all my love E xx

Well I can tell you I almost fucking passed out, it was his way of apologising for a few things, first not letting me be his sisters accountant, two being an arse and not telling me his plan and finally just telling me he loves me.

I considered calling his company up and thanking him, but does the society listen in on phone calls? I was not sure on anything, the society was fucking with my life too much. Every little thing I said or done I felt like they were nearby, I somehow think that is the intention that they want to perceive, we watch everything.

I think they thought they were the fucking god father or something!!!

The following evening we were going out drinking Jacob and I, It had been months since we both went for a good drink on a Saturday night and I really wanted to let my hair down.

"So why are we calling into The Eden?" I asked Jacob, because in truth it is not somewhere that we ever stepped foot into......it was a little posh for my liking.

"I thought it would be a nice change"

"For who?" I called out in astonishment; I was just as happy sitting in a scummy club with cheap beer.

"Just come along Bells and move that cute ass of yours" I couldn't very well argue when he called my ass nice, could I?

We took a seat and strangely enough Jacob was adamant I sit facing the door, I wish I knew why!

I pulled out my little mirror to reapply my lipstick and then suddenly realised why I had to face the door, because the striking blond was sitting behind me.....BEHIND ME. Were the fuck was Edward?

I pretended I hadn't noticed and watched Jacobs every eye movement, what has he got planned? Did he just want to see Tanya's face? Did he really not know she was here? Did he really want another beating from the Society? What the hell was he thinking, what if they caught them in the same premises, they would automatically assume they were up to something.

"Get up and move NOW" I called harshly to Jake.

"What? Why?" Jacob called in shock.......fake shock none the less.

"If you for one second believe that they are not somewhere close by keeping an eye on you, you are being immature and look what happened to you last time, do you want a repeat performance, or worse yet, something more....permanent" Saying death felt a little harsh.

Jacob closed his eyes and put his head down "I didn't know Bella, truly I didn't, I had heard a few of the men from the society say it's a nice place to come to, I wanted to spoil you a little" Damn he was good.

"Yeah well I hear a brothels a nice place to take men to, but you don't see me dragging your butt into one do you" That made Jake laugh, I briefly wondered why then I thought of the society and hell I just realised it is in its own way a fucking brothel. I'm a slut, a prostitute, a fucking prostitute who doesn't make a bean, hardly seems fair to me!

Jacob stood up and took my hand and pulled me out and into the street that is when I noticed a black car over the road, with tinted out windows "you do realise they are watching us?" Jacob just nodded.

"Like I said, I would not have taken you in there if I had known that Edward and Tanya were out"

Now dear god I didn't meant to, it was as though my body had a life of its own, but I ran back up the steps to look through the glass door to try and see if I could see Edward, I looked over at Tanya and there was my disarrayed haired man, his face looked well and truly pissed off and more surprisingly so was Tanya's they were sitting with another two couples.

I quickly realised it was Alice his sister and the girl she was with the day at the wedding shop, I really felt obliged to go in and say hello, after all she did ask me to go to lunch with her that day, I mean that sort of classes us as close enough to say hello, especially when Edward was there.

"What the hell you doing Bella?" Jacob snapped.

"Oh Alice is in there, I should have said Hello"

"Just move it" Jacob grabbed my hand and pulled me into the next club.

Four hours later and we were dancing in the nightclub, I say dancing I was sort of swaying, all right, all right I was tripping over my own feet, banging into people and being tossed all over, I was drunk....give me a break it has been a few months.

"Toilet" I called up to Jacob who pulled me through the crowd and took a seat waiting for me.

After fifteen minutes in the toilet – who knew stockings were so hard to get up and down when you were drunk – I headed for Jacob.

I felt a strong hand grab my arm and swing me around, I was about to shout but then my lips were crashing off.....I knew that scent anywhere, the texture of those lips, the feel of those hands.....Edward.

"I've missed you" I breathed into his mouth.

"Mmmmm" Was all Edward mumbled out while continuing to trace his tongue across my upper lip.

After Edward pulled away we stood staring at each other with smiles hitting an all time high.

"I've missed you too baby" Edward called into my ear, sending shivers throughout my body.

"I best go" I called regrettably.

"Hold on" Edward called grabbing my hand again as I was walking away "I don't want you to go yet" His voice sounded sad and that made me feel like I had been punched in the chest.

"Edward they could be watching us, its a little public for their liking" I fucking hated the society.

"Fuck it Bella I've had enough, I want to be with you, I cannot go on pretending that everything is ok between me and Tanya when obviously she is besotted with Jacob and I am.....in love with you"

I was not entirely sure if it was the drink in my system or the fact I just loved this man more than was classed as sane but I threw myself into his arms and crashed my lips off his again.

"I love you" I breathed out while pulling at his hair, it was as though the chemistry was causing electric to spark out from all around us, this man made my body feel like live wire and set my pulse racing like a hare running from a grey hound.

"I really must go" I called I pulled away from Edward to see Jacob standing behind us FUCK, no, no scratch that DOUBLE FUCK.

"I see" Jacob called while standing there with his arms crossed.

"What do you see?" I played on the alcohol a tad bit.

"How long?" Jacob asked glaring over my head to Edward.

"Shut up Jacob" I tried to sound aggressive, but a cute kitten was probably more intimidating.

"HOW LONG" His voice was getting louder, my heart was beating faster and fuck, Edward's grin was getting bigger.

"I could ask you the same thing Jacob Black, so why don't you turn the fuck around and get out of my sight" Edward's voice was most definitely intimidating and I was so turned on it was not even natural.

"Excuse me" Jacob growled.

"Yeah dog, have you seen Bella walk in beaten to crap yet? NO....that would be because nothing has happened outside the society"

Ok that shocked Jake a little, he knew Edward was right.

"Unlike you and my so called fiancé" Edward virtually roared "Well your more than welcome to each other, she is just over there Jacob, go on, say hello, bang her against a wall or whatever else the pair of you like doing"

Was I actually hearing right, or was it just the music was too high and was imagining things? Please be imaging this, please, please, please.

Edward's arms snaked through mine and He pulled me back so my back was against his chest.

"Bella stays with me now....she is mine"

"WHAT....WAIT....NO" I yelled out

"Excuse me?" Edward scolded.

"Edward, I don't know what the hell Tanya looked like when she came in from being beat up but I sure the hell remember what Jake looked like and there is no way I am letting them do that to you, until we find a way out, this stays behind closed doors....Edward I mean it" I turned my body around to look him straight in the eyes "I mean it"

I turned my head around to face Jacob "And Tanya does not hear about this Jacob, leave her out of this for the time being"

"Were going" Jacob called taking a step closer to me, I looked up at Edward and his eyes were pleading with me to stay with him. I took a step back and walked up to Jake I felt like I had just stabbed a knife into Edward's heart; his expression spoke a thousand words.

"And thanks for the flowers" I mouthed to him, Edward smiled slightly and nodded "I love you" I mouthed again, so Jacob could not see, again Edward nodded.

Once we arrived back to the house and I had sobered up considerably Jacob sat us down and held my hand.

"I will not lose you to him Bella" EH?

"Jake, you lost me the moment you signed us up to the society, surely you see that?"

"Then why are you with me?" he had a good point.

"Because believe it or not Jacob I do love you, I have and always will love you, but you broke my heart that day and there is no way to repair that"

"I will try Bella, it is over between me and Tanya, honestly it is, we will not be ever seeing each other again" I didn't care if they did, that was the problem.

"Jacob because of you, I have to sleep with another man every single week, do you not see the problem that causes in a relationship?"

"A little" the dumb ass called.

"A little, are you fucking joking?" Jake just shrugged his shoulders I stormed off to bed, briefly considering throwing the lamp off his head.

Thursday Evening.

You could feel the tension in the room, the four of us were looking between each other the entire time and it had not gone unnoticed that Caius was eyeing Tanya and Jacob, thankfully it seems mine and Edward's kiss in the nightclub had been undetected.

Tanya was third to pick and for the love of god she got Jacob AGAIN, I had prodded and poked those damn keys till my fingers bled and there was nothing strange on them, how the hell did she pick him all the time?

Me and Edward looked at each other with a knowing smile, they had some way of doing it, we were just not aware of how.

Edward had yet to be picked and I there was another girl before me, if she picked his keys so help me god, she was going out the window at a hundred miles an hour and I was not messing, I needed to speak to him, feel him, touch him and not be worried who was watching.

"Edward and Jane Room 7" My heart plummeted Edward turned as white as a sheet, Jane had a fucking grin on her face that was begging to be punched off, so when I accidentally stuck my foot out as she was passing and she went flying on the floor I acted a little more than shocked.

"Are you ok?" I asked leaving her lying on the floor; I was not helping the bitch up.

Edward walked over and acted like the gentleman he always was and helped her up while grazing his hand off my arm; the hairs were standing on end.

I needed him so much.

"I'm sorry" Edward mouthed to me and walked off, it was my turn and I'd be damned I picked Caius, ok Mr V it's on, he was about to get the hardest time of his life.

"Room 6" Claire called, I nearly cried, the man I wanted was next door to us, it was like a personal punishment.

Caius opened the door and I went and sat on the bed, Caius came walking over and placed his hand on my face, I looked up at him, sorrow written all over me.

"Can I ask you something?" Caius nodded.

"Why won't you let us leave?"

"Jacob signed the contract, he got you messed up in this, I did not force him, I did not force anyone to join the society, It was always his choice, he done this to you, do not look at me as though I am the devil here"

"But you are, you get him beat up"

"Who did?" Caius snapped at me.

"So it was not the society who beat Jacob to a pulp for meeting Tanya outside of the society"

Ok that shut him the hell up.

"You knew they were meeting outside the society? Are you ok with that?"

"I am passed caring what Jacob does, the day he got me into this was the day me and him where over in all honesty"

"So why are you still with him?"

"I don't know" I cried out, tipping my eyes to the floor.

"You really should leave him if it makes you so unhappy, I don't like seeing anyone this upset who comes here, is there something I can get for you?"

"You can let me leave the society"

"Something reasonable Bella, I will not stand for being made to feel the bad guy here, Jacob signed use up as a couple, do you understand me, as a couple Bella, I am not in the wrong"

"But you keep us here, against my will"

"As a couple yes....I do, I am sorry about that, but just listen to me Bella, we don't want to lose you, you are a fine asset to the society, but as a couple you are bound by contract"

I lifted my eyes back up facing Caius in the eyes "so beautiful" he whispered and then his lips touched mine, I drifted off into my happy place....Edward, Edward and more Edward.
