Chapter 35
**Bella**
It was like I was in a trance or some kind of astral projection.
Had I left my body?
My baby, oh God, my Oliver.
"Bella, we have to go now!" Edward shouted obviously upset. I couldn't move.
Edward shook me violently. "Snap out of it, Bella. We have to get Oliver back!"
I looked up, realization finally dawning on me.
We were going to get by baby?
Was all not lost?
I glanced over at Alice's unmoving form as it was draped across the sofa in an awkward position, and let out a sob.
God Alice - so young and smart. Who did this to you? Who took my baby?
"She's not dead. She was just knocked out," he said comfortingly.
I couldn't take joy in the fact that the babysitter wasn't dead because my Oliver was fucking missing.
Why?
In that moment I knew. Edward. This was his fault.
My chest constricted painfully at the realization, the air didn't come easily, and black spots formed in my field of vision – as a nurse, I knew the symptoms. I was having a panic attack.
Edward was at my side looking over me, worried.
I saw red.
Before I could even think, I felt the palm of my hand connect harshly with his flushed cheek.
He didn't even flinch.
"It's time to go," he replied to my violent act with a sad urgency.
I let him pack a bag for me and then we left – I didn't even fight him.
