Edward's POV
Chapter 13
"Are you stupid and blind?" Bella growled. "Of course it bothered me! Once in a while it would have been fine, but every weekend? Really? When the fuck did I ever get your undivided attention? When was the last time we slept in or made love all day? Fuck that...when was the last time you showed me that you loved...needed me. Ravaged me till the point of exhaustion, leaving no room for doubts to cloud my mind."
I honestly could not answer, and that saddened me more than I could admit.
How had we gotten here? To this point where I had to stand here and see my woman crumble – watch her break. She was falling apart at the seams and there was nothing I could do to fix what I had broken.
"And then to top it off," she sniffed, "you accuse me of trying to bribe or manipulate you into loving me and staying home." Her head shook from side to side.
"Enough is enough, Edward, this ends here. Please, for the first time in a long time, do something for me and leave . . . please."
Nothing I could have said would've made a difference so as she walked toward the door and opened it; I did as asked and walked by her, then out.
Leaving on the other side of the now closed door a sobbing hurt woman that I planned to win back.
Just a heads up, the next chapter will not be up by Monday as I am sending out the next batch of pre-written chapter out to my beta today. I'm having the worst case of writers block and cannot put off giving her what I have until it clears up. I'm thinking next week will be just a one chap week...so be patient with me while I work through all this.
In my defense...edits kicked my ass!
Thanks.
