Bella's POV

Chapter 14

A week had passed, and just as I had on the first night he'd left, I couldn't stop the tears from falling. Everywhere I turned were pictures . . . memories haunting my every thought.

I won't deny that while I knew it was for the best, this separation was killing me both physically and emotionally.

My appetite was nil, but I still forced down what I needed for the sake of our child.

Our child.

News that should have been met with excitement from the happiness of knowing we'd created something beautiful together. That the fruit of our love was blooming within me and someday soon, there would be a child in our arms.

A tiny piece of us to love and protect.

My body ached as the days passed. The only news I heard of Edward was that he had become a disaster because of me.

His father told me that I was a disappointment.

His mother hadn't spoken to me, except to make me feel like a horrible wife.

Ben claimed I was selfish just like his Angela, and that I'd never deserved him.

I had no one but my sister to lean on and help me to make sense of the complete disaster my life had become.

God, I miss him...

I wished things could be fixed between us, but our once white-picket fence was now so demolished and moldy that only a complete overhaul could be accepted.

Problem was that I didn't believe him anymore; didn't know how to begin believing the vows he repeated to me during his drunken call of misery each night.

Next week we will be back to regular schedule god willing. The ARC's for Ardor are almost ready to be sent out and I'm positively giddy with excitement since I have less than a month before it's release!
