Beautiful Tyrant

**..**..**..**..**

A/N:

In this story the character names belong to Stephenie Meyer but the inspiration and chapter titles come from William Shakespeare's epic tale, Romeo & Juliet.

Chapter 52. How now, who calls?

Bella groaned aloud on hearing Mrs. Cope's voice calling her name from the doorway, pulling her away from the nineteenth century and the delicious Mr. Darcy. With a sigh, she pulled the curtain aside and poked her head out reluctantly.

"I'm right here, Mrs. Cope. Who is it looking for me this time? Is it my father being ridiculously protective, or my mother being ridiculously shallow?

"Bella! Hush now. You're a lucky young lady to have a mama and papa who love you enough to worry about you and want you to do well."

Bella felt immediately contrite. "I'm sorry."
