Edward's POV

I could not believe Bella had invited Jacob Black over for dinner. I clenched my fists trying to calm myself down but I knew it would be impossible for me to tame the furious fire raging inside me. I was so distraught; I could not even focus on typing my reports for work. I sighed as I heard Bella walking to our room. I leaned back in my chair trying to comprehend what had just occurred earlier that evening. As long as I could remember Bella and I had a great relationship, we never fought and we always trusted each other. But ever since Tanya and Jacob appeared, our relationship was crumbling. It upset me Bella didn't like Tanya because she knew I had to fire numerous employees at my work and it was rare to find a good worker like Tanya. I thought Bella would be happy for me and my business but she wasn't. It actually seemed as though she didn't trust me and that upset me the most. It was like someone had cut me with a knife. We always trusted each other and I hated that Bella could not even trust me with an employee. I wasn't sure why she didn't trust me; it wasn't as though I had ever given her a reason not to trust me. But I knew I couldn't be with someone who couldn't trust me. I hated being mad at Bella, but I had to show her it wasn't okay not to trust me.

I also couldn't understand why Bella was now talking with Jacob. I had heard for months how much Jacob had hurt her and I swore I would protect her for as long as I lived. I knew Bella, and I knew she was a forgiving person I just wasn't prepared for her to forgive Jacob so easily. I sighed again, releasing some tension. I had a really bad feeling about Jacob and I guess I was afraid he would take my love away from me. I knew Jacob was Bella's first love and it scared me. It really did. I knew Bella was over him, but due to the events of this evening, I wasn't quite sure. The idea of losing Bella caused my stomach to rumble as I started to feel a wave of nausea hit. I couldn't lose her, even though I felt as though she was slipping through my hands like sand. I tried to focus on the computer screen for the second time, but all of a sudden I heard heavy sobs coming from down the hall. I placed my head in my hands feeling guilty, sad and angry. For the first time in my life I felt as though my life was falling apart and that I was losing the love of my life. I loved Bella so much but I was also very angry with her. Since when did my life become so complicated? I asked myself as I forced myself to get back to work even though my heart was breaking into tiny, little pieces.

I managed to work until two in the morning and because I didn't want to wake Bella, I slept on the couch until four. Before I left for work I snuck into our room and watched my angel sleep from the doorway. Her brown hair was fanned out across the bed like an angel's halo. Oh how she looked so beautiful. I stared at her, consuming her beauty and prayed that somehow we would find a way to overcome this issue. Then I went into the kitchen and was about to write her a good morning note like I always did, but as soon as I glanced at the table I remembered who was at my house last night and it didn't please me. I growled inside thinking another man was with my woman alone. Then I became angry as I asking myself why would, Bella do such a thing? How could she do that to me? The anger surged inside me like a tidal wave and I left for work without leaving a note for Bella.

For the next couple of hours all I could think about was Bella and the fearful thought of losing her. A thought came to mind as I was talking with a manager from Canada. Then I saw Bella walk past my door, but instead of ignoring her I gestured for to enter my office

"Come here love." I said

"Sit here please." I said as I patted my knees.

I knew what I had to do to make Bella realize that I was the only man that should ever be in her life.

"So I think we need to discuss something's like why you invited Jacob Black, your ex-lover over for dinner last night." I explained as I pulled all her hair away from her neck, so the bare skin was exposed for me to kiss. Oh god, how she smelt and felt amazing. I just wanted to touch her all over. I wanted to feel her warm skin on mine.

"I am very curious Bella why you thought it was appropriate to invite your ex-lover when you have a lover right here." I said again as I put my arm around her and started rubbing her right breast thought her white blouse. I always thought Bella had the perfect breasts because they fit perfectly in my hands, as though they were made just for my hands. For only my hands. Then I moved my hand to her other breast.

"Mmm." I heard her moan slowly.

Then my right hand dove underneath her skirt and I started to rub her wet, smooth clit through her silk panties.

"Oh, Edward…" She cried out.

Then I stopped pleasing Bella and lifted her up from my lap and stood up. I turned her body so her back was leaning against my desk. Then I took of her skirt and panties so she was exposed, like a delicate painting on exhibit in a museum. I knew she was waiting for me to take off my jeans but I just stood there. I wanted to make sure she knew, I was hers and only hers. I had to emphasize to her why she didn't need Jacob in her life.

"My love, you are mine and only mine! So I hope I will never have to see your ex again! I also want to show you that you're present lover, is a hell of a lot better than your old lover!" I announced as I quickly pulled down my pants and pulled open her, sweet thighs. My heart was pounding like a drum as I entered my hard, thick cock inside her wet center and thrusted in and out, in and out.

I groaned as I pulled her hair tight as I moved my cock inside of her.

"Oh my god Edward, you feel so good inside of me! Mmmmm." She said.

"Good, I love it when my cock is inside you." I said groaning in pleasure as I felt myself ready to cum.

I continued to thrust into her harder and faster as she held onto the desk for support. Then she wrapped my thighs around my waist as I grabbed her ass.

"Oh Edward I think I am going to…" She cried out as she finally had her orgasmic relief.

Then I cried out in pleasure as I released my seed into her.

"Now that we know I am the best lover you could ever have, I don't see a reason in you seeing Jacob. Now please get to work." I said as I cleaned myself off and put my pants back on. I was pleased with myself and knew I had gotten through to Bella.

"But Jacob is a friend Edward." She tried to say.

"I don't care." I responded as I started to make a phone call.

Then I watched her leave with my mark and smell imprinted on her. I smiled knowing she had received my message loud and clear.

My day was going well since I had a nice picture of Bella's body to put my mind at ease. However before it was time for me to leave, I heard a knock at the door. I thought it was Bella wanting round two, however it was not Bella, and it was Tanya.

"Good afternoon Tanya, good thing you came into my office, I was just going to see you and let you know that I hope you can join me for a business meeting in Canada." I said .overcoming my shock of seeing her. Then I shifted further in my seat.

"Good afternoon Mr. Cullen, Oh thank you, of course I will be honored to go with you." She said.

"Is there a reason you are in my office Mrs. Denali?" I asked, curious to know why she was here.

" I just wanted to go over some paper work with you." She said as she walked towards me.

But I realized there was nothing in her hands, not even one folder or piece of paper.

"And what paper work would that be?" I asked as I glanced at her empty hands.

Tanya smiled at me as she walked over to me.

"Oh please Mr. Cullen that was just an excuse so I could see you. I can't help but notice how you look at me and I thought I would you let you have a taste." Tanya said as she sat on my lap and straddled me.

"Tanya…What are you doing? I think you have the wrong idea because I love my fiancé very much." I said trying to shove her off, but she wasn't getting the idea. I was so shocked that Tanya was doing this. I was also shocked that Bella was right all this time.

"Maybe that is true Edward, but I know you love me more." Tanya said as she leaned closer to me.

All of a sudden I looked out my window and saw a shocked, sad Bella staring at me. My heart tore into a million of pieces as though someone had shattered it with a hammer. No! I had to see her! I had to let Bella know, it wasn't what she thought it was. I quickly shoved her off of me and ran into the hall way trying to catch her.

"BELLA WAIT, PLEASE STOP, IT IS NOT WHAT YOU THINK!" I yelled, hoping she would stop and realize I would never do anything to hurt her. She was the love of my life, why would I hurt her? Oh how I would give anything for her to stop running away from me. I ran as fast as I could, even down the stairs but I stopped as she left the building. I punched the side of the door in frustration. I knew I should have followed her, but knowing Bella I knew she would need some space. I tried to catch my breath as I saw her car drive off into the distance. Then I went upstairs, hoping to give Tanya a piece of my mind but she wasn't in my office, in fact see wasn't anywhere to be found. I pulled out my phone and called Bella, however it went to her voice mail. I phoned her again and again, but she failed to pick up her phone. Then I texted her number of times telling her I was sorry and that it wasn't what she thought it was.

"Damn it, Bella pick your phone up!" I yelled out loud. I was so angry I pushed all of my paper, folders and pens off of my desk as they quickly fell to the floor. Then I fell onto my chair. I thought we could fix things, but now I wasn't sure if we could. I wasn't even sure Bella would believe me. If she didn't, I knew she would not be mine anymore.

I worked for another hour, but because I was distracted I didn't get much done. I tried to find Tanya again, but I still couldn't find her. So I went home hoping Bella would be there so I could tell her what truly happened. However to my disappointed, her car was not in the drive way and when I entered the house she was not there. My despair turned into worry as I started to think of where Bella had gone to. I tried calling her again, but still there was no answer. Although it was killing me inside, I knew she just needed some space and I had to give it to her. But in the morning I was going to find her and tell her what really happened.

I took a long cold shower and went straight to bed with only one thought in my mind; Bella. Although I tried to fall asleep I couldn't. I felt as though there was a whole in my stomach and all I wanted to do was see Bella. I knew I needed to fix things with her, so I decided I was going to work from home tomorrow so that Bella could come over and we could talk. So at 6:30 am I texted Bella this; Hey Bella, I can't leave things a mess so I'm going to work from home today so I hope you will come around so we can talk things over. I love you so much please believe that Bella, it wasn't my fault. I hoped she would at least look at her phone, because I really wanted to fix things and the only way to do that was to talk to her. I didn't want to lose her because of this. I needed her so bad. She was my life and without her I would die. So I decided I would work from home because I realized my relationship was more important than work. I just really hoped she would come over tomorrow. I turned over in my bed and hoped I would be able to get a few hours of sleep, but I knew that was highly doubtful.

I woke up in the morning feeling tired and hurt, but I managed to take a shower and get dressed into casual clothes. I checked my phone but there was still word from Bella. If she didn't come over today, I was going to find her. I had just opened my hotmail account on my computer and was just checking if I had received any emails from clients in other parts of the world, when I heard a knock at the door. This time I knew it was Bella. My heart pounded loudly as I walked quickly to the door; however I was disappointed again when I saw Tanya standing there.

"What the hell do you want?" I asked as I crossed my arms in front of my chest.

"Oh Edward, I just came by to apologize for today. Can I come in? Maybe I can show you the email I received from a client in Washington, I am sure you would love to read it." Tanya said.

"Fine you can come in but this is just business and I just want to say I do not love you, I love Bella, is that clear?" I asked with a serious tone.

Tanya nodded her head as she walked in the house. Then I led her to my office where she was going to show me an important email from a significant client.

"Again I am sorry for today Edward." Tanya said as she looked through her emails.

"Yeah I am afraid that was inappropriate behaviour Tanya. That can't happen again. I am honored you like me but I am getting married to a beautiful women and I love her very much. I hope we can overcome this issue because you are a very good employee, one of my best, but I want your word this won't happen again." I explained.

"Of course Edward, I don't want this to hinder our business, I really do enjoy working with you and I am very thankful for your help. I am very sorry; Bella is a very lucky woman. Is there anything I can do to help you?" Tanya asked as she began to look around.

"Where is she anyways?"

"Well because of you Tanya, my fiancé now hates me, she is nowhere to be found and I can't get a hold of her." I said trying to make sure Tanya knew this was all her fault.

"I am so sorry Edward, I truly am. I hope you can forgive me. But perhaps Bella is at that guy's house, you know the one she is always with?" She suggested.

Jacob? Why would she be at his house? But then I remembered him at dinner and how she stayed at the restaurant with him playing pool. Maybe Tanya was right. I clenched my fists tightly together. Bella was mine, not Jacob's. Bella was always supposed to be with me. A wave of jealous overwhelmed me like a tidal wave thinking of Bella with Jacob. I hated knowing she could be with another man, when she should be with me.

"Sorry Edward, I didn't mean to make you more upset." Tanya said again.

I nodded my head as I sat in my chair waiting for her to show me the email. Then Tanya looked at me.

"Edward you are one sexy man. Don't you know that?" Tanya said as she sat on the computer desk.

"You have something on your face; let me get it for you." She whispered as she touched my face and then travelled down to my stomach.

I froze. What the hell was she doing? What the hell was wrong with her? Didn't she hear what I said to her before?

"What the hell is wrong with you Tanya? Didn't hear what I said to you?" I yelled pushing her off of me again.

"Nothing is wrong with me Edward; I was just getting something off of your face." She said in an innocent voice.

"No you weren't and you know that Tanya!" I said standing up straight.

"I told you I love Bella and if you can't deal with that then I suggest you leave the business, because I swear the next time this happens, YOU WILL BE FIRED!" I yelled at her, which made her quiver.

Then I kicked Tanya out of my house. As soon as she was out of my house I screamed in frustration! I always had control of my life and now it seemed as though it was spinning out of control. I knew the only way to deal with things right now was to go out and have a drink. Then I would clear my head and find Bella. So I drove off to the Royal Coachman pub, not even realizing a black car was following me.

As soon as I entered the pub, I was ready to sit down and have a nice drink, but as I walked to the bar, I saw someone I recognized. I stopped and stared. It was Jacob and beside him was Bella, my Bella! What the hell was she doing with him? A wave of jealousy hit me hard realizing my woman was with another man. I clenched my fists together and stomped towards their direction.

"Get your hands off of her Jacob Black!" I yelled in an angry tone as I swung my fist and punched Jacob in the face.

"I thought I told you not to see him?" I yelled at Bella.

"You did. But I guess I should have told you not to cheat on me!" She yelled back as she tried to see if Jacob was okay, which cut my heart like a blade cutting skin.

"Bella I didn't cheat on you, let me explain?" I asked, hoping she would at least hear me out before calling me a cheater.

"Fine Edward, finally explain to me why I saw you with her yesterday and this morning." She demanded.

What? She saw me with her this morning? She was our house? She actually came over? Crap, now I knew this would be more difficult to fix than before.

"Why did you bring her here?" She asked disgusted.

What? I was confused who she was talking about, but then I looked behind me and there was Tanya. How did she know I was here?

"Bella… it isn't like that." I said, trying to let her know I didn't invite her here.

"Didn't you tell her Edward?" Tanya chimed in.

"Tell me what?" I asked glaring at both of them.

"Edward and I have to go to Canada for a week for a business meeting, isn't that exciting?" Tanya explained.

What? Why did she have to tell Bella that now? I wanted to sit down and talk to her.

"And you are going with her?" She cried out, my fists clenched tightly.

"Bella its business, if I don't go, I could lose my job." I said.

"But I saw you two, I guess that is why you are excited so you can spend more time with her?" She yelled.

"Bella that wasn't my fault, but I told Tanya that I love you and she accepts that so I think I fixed everything. Do you not trust me anymore?" I asked, really curious as the answer I was going to get.

"So you are going on this trip no matter what?" She asked.

"Of course Bella it's MY job!" I yelled. She knew my job involved travelling. She used to be so supportive and it really seemed she didn't trust me and I hated that.

She glared at me.

"And you are going to go with her?" She asked again.

I shook my head in agreement.

"Bella I fixed things, I promise. I love you." I said, pleading with Bella to listen to me.

"Yeah right." I heard someone mumble. It was Jacob.

"Do you have something to say to me?" I demanded, wanting to punch Jacob in the face again.

"Yeah I do actually. Maybe if you actually loved her you would show it instead of kissing other women. Instead I have had to pick up the pieces." Jacob said.

"What do you mean?" I said eyeing me then Jacob. All of a sudden I realized what Jacob had said. Bella had stayed over at Jacob's last night and knowing Jacob, they had slept together. My heart broke again as I felt as though someone had slapped me in the face. I couldn't believe Bella would do this to me. I couldn't believe the person I loved would do this.

"So while I was calling you all night, you were at Jacob's? So you are getting mad at me for going on a trip with Tanya but you spent the night at your ex's? So you think I cheated so you go ahead and cheat too!" I snarled, as the anger surged inside me. It wasn't okay that she was mad at me spending time with Tanya, when she spent all last night with Jacob. I wasn't going to put up with it, not anymore.

"I didn't cheat Edward! You should know me! Don't you trust me?" She asked.

Before I could answer, Bella spoke.

"We can't do this anymore Edward, I love you so much but I think we need a break."
