by bexie25

Step one you say we need to talk, he walks you say sit down, it's just a talk. He smiles politely back at you. You stare politely right on through. Meeting on a bus, Edward and Bella are immediately attracted to each other but their gloomy, abuse-ridden pasts make them both hesitant to trust anyone. Follow them as Bella learns not only how to save a life, but hers is saved as well.

154. Chapter 153

We watch Edward Masen for his reaction; fuck his wife – Edward's mother – she is not important.

He's overconfident; his right eyebrow quirks, his lips twitch into a twisted smile.

There's a gleam in his eye that shows his true character…

… He's sadistic and he's so very… not impressing in his anger.

Alas, I can see how Edward may be frightened. Hell, I've grown up with this, with much worse.

But then Mr Masen speaks… "And how are you going to achieve that?"

Edward trembles at the menacing undertone and I flush… angrily.

I lean up and drop a kiss on Edward's cheek and he swallows, looking down at me.

Breathe, I mentally chant at him. Please, baby… breathe.

He does… and I'm so proud of him.
