Treacherous Chapter 8: AlleyWays
Authors Note:
Hi everyone, I am sorry that this story has taken me over two years to update. I truly, truly apologize. The past two years have been quite busy for me. I moved into a condo and I will be getting married this May. I have been unhappy for awhile but having to deal with a wedding made me feel worse and I felt really sad and depressed. I felt numb and lifeless most of the time and was sick of being tired and sad all of the time. It was not as severe as some people deal with but for a little while I was not myself and have been trying to get myself back. My heart goes out to anyone who is dealing with depression or any mental illness because it is tough no matter what your symptoms are and the length of your symptoms. I have never been clinically diagnosed but I know I have been dealing with it on some level for sometime. It has become bearable now but I did realize that the reason that I have been so sad is that I have not been writing which is what I love to do. I think I was so scared because I had not looked at this story in a long time and was afraid I could not complete or update it. But I realized I had to change my life in someway and had to start to write again. So I am going to incorporate some of my feelings and emotions that I have been feeling over the past year in this story. I know it will help me cope and bring back my passion. I just want to say a big thank you to those of you who have still liked this story and have added it to your favourite list. I also want to say thank you to those of you who have messaged me asking if I will ever update this story. I do apologize for not replying and for just updating now. I hope you like this chapter and I do value your support. It did feel really good to write. Thank you for not forgetting about me and this story. You are amazing.
xoxo

What a mistake, saying the way I felt
I say my name influences myself
And cause I started young, I learned it done, I didn't run
La da da da da da
I was scared as fuck and out of touch, and I was still testing my luck, oh
-The Neighborhood-Alleyways
"I can stay here if you want to talk. But I'm sure I still won't think you are fucked up." I suggested pleading with him to open up so I could help him.
"No Bella! You can't know those things about me! Now please just get out!" He shouted which made me jump out of my seat.
I nodded my head and exited the car. Even though I wanted to comfort him, I knew that's not what he wanted. I knew I was starting to fall for Edward but how could I be with someone if they couldn't trust me to let me in? I knew whatever had happened to him must have been horrible but I just wished I knew what it was. I couldn't get his words out of my head. "I'm fucked up." What would make a man think that about himself, especially when Edward was a magnificent man and who was Edward talking to on the phone?
Even though I was angry at the way Edward had behaved, I had a feeling he was acting this way because he was trying to push me away. Well I wasn't going to be pushed away that easily. I knew someday I would uncover the mysterious of Edward's past.
Bella's POV
As soon as my feet hit the black pavement, I could feel the searing sun scorch my silky skin. But as I glanced back to Edward's BMW which was surprisingly still parked in its same spot, my skin became cold as a chill swept across me, producing goosebumps to appear all across my body.
The window was dark but I knew I could see him staring back at me. My heart wanted me to run right back into his car and tell Edward that everything would be okay, but my mind was telling me to leave, that this man was not a good man to pursue. I shook my head knowing that I wasn't sure if I really wanted to know Edward, and be sucked into his black hole that appeared to be his past. But maybe he needed her? Maybe she could help Edward beat the dirty demons that were threatening to take over his wicked world? But as soon as that optimistic thought entered her mind, the BMW sped off down the ally way like a rocket racing through the sky.
I sighed as I rubbed my face with my hands. I didn't know what to do. I had never been so indecisive about anything in my life. There was something about Edward that had caught my attention and I wanted more. I loved that my heart beat every time I saw him and felt a rush of excitement when I could feel the tightness in my thighs when I thought of him. But I was scared because I didn't know what I was getting myself into. I was scared to really get to know Edward because that meant I had to deal with my own past. My own dirty demons that often danced throughout my own head. I shook my head trying to prevent those negative thoughts from capturing my mind. No I was okay now. I had been okay for awhile. Edward would not need to know my past especially since he had his own to deal with. Yes I would be fine and I would not allow the demons to return again. But would I be able to save Edward? Would I be able to stay with him? These questions lingered in my mind as I started to make my way back to my apartment.
I had been too caught up in my thoughts to realize that there was a man walking in my direction. He had long blonde dreadlocks and was wearing black shorts with a red tank top. He also had a large tattoo on his shoulder, but I couldn't make out what it was. He looked at me with evil eyes and a smirk that sliced through my skin. I looked behind me and realized there was no other way out but the way I was going now. My breathe caught in my throat as I realized I was trapt.
"Wow nice body, I would love to get me some of that" The man said as he started to walk towards me.
My heart started to beat like a drum as my breathe caught in my throat. My body was frozen solid and I couldn't move. I wanted to scream for help but there was no one around. No one would be able to hear my screams of terror.
"I saw you on the beach and knew you would be a good fuck, but I didn't think I would be able to find you this easily." His voice sounded like poison as he walked closer to me.
That was it. I had to do something. So I took off like a bolt of lightening but I knew I wouldn't be able to outrun him as his thick arms wrapped around my stomach.
I screamed as he grabbed me and pushed me against the brick, cement wall. I grimaced as the pain rocked my body.
"Your so fucking sexy, I can't wait to fuck you." The man said as his vile spit landed on my fearful face.
His right hand grabbed my neck so I couldn't move and his left hand started to touch my breast.
"GET OFF OF ME. STOP IT. STOP IT!" I screamed as loud as I could but he slapped me and then put his hand that was on my throat over my mouth so my screams were muffled by his skin.
I tried to move. I tried to scream. But I couldn't move. I was like an animal caught in a cage. I started crying as I felt his hands travel down my stomach and down towards my thighs. I watched as he undid the belt and zipper of his cargo shorts. My eyes went wide in shock as I knew what was happening. I cried harder as my bikini bottoms start to move. I didn't want this. I didn't deserve this.
All of a sudden I heard a car speed into the alleyway. I quickly realized it was a BMW. A figure ran out of the car. It was Edward. His eyes were black with fury and his hands were shaped as fists.
"GET THE FUCK OFF OF HER NOW YOU FUCKING BASTARD!" He yelled as he pulled the man off of me.
I started to cough as the weight was lifted off of my chest. My legs felt like jelly as I fell onto the ground, where I watched Edward fight my attacker.
"DON'T YOU EVER FUCKING TOUCH HER AGAIN. YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE!" Edward yelled as he kept punching the man in the face.
Even though I was glad Edward had saved me, he was scaring me. I knew he was jealous and dominant but this was over the top. I didn't know this man at all. I was afraid he would go too far.
"EDWARD STOP!" I yelled as salty tears started to fall down my face.
Edward's body went still as right arm froze in mid air. I could tell he was shaking and angry.
"GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!" He yelled at the man as he shoved him.
Then he ran over to me.
"Are you okay? Shh Bella it is okay." He said as I burst out crying and wrapped myself in his protective arms. My sobs took over my body as I cried into Edward's shoulder.
Edward rubbed my back up and down as he tried to soothe me but I could tell he was still angry because his own body was shaking like a leaf.
I felt my sobs slowly leave my body as I looked up into his face and unwrapped my arms from his chest. His eyes were dark and deadly but he also looked concerned as grief overcame his body.
"Are you okay? I am so sorry Bella. This is all of my fault. I should not have left you here. Who the fuck leaves a woman in an alley way by herself? Why am I so fucked up?" He stated as he wiped away the tears away from my eyes.
"It's okay Edward, it is not your fault. I don't blame you for this, you could not have known this was going to happen. No one could have known. I am just so glad you were here to save me...I don't know what I would have done if you were not here..." I admitted as my body shook with the realization of what could have happened if I was not rescued.
"You don't blame me? You should Bella. This is all on me. Everything is..." He whispered as he looked down at the ground. It looked like he had drifted somewhere into his mind because next thing I knew his eyes were bright and a smile formed on his lips.
"I would never let anything happen to you Bella. I will always be here for you no matter what. I promise you that Bella. Please know that." He said almost pleading with me as he held onto my arms.
"I know that Edward. Thank you for everything." I said as I kissed his cheek and hugged him tightly.
"C'mon let's take you home." He said.
I grimaced. I didn't really want to see Jake or talk to him about what just happened.
"Can we go back to your place? I don't really want to face Jake right now." I said as he frowned.
"Of course we can. Anything for you, my love." He said as he picked me up and carried me into
his BMW.
It was then I realized I didn't know where my phone was. I didn't remember bringing it to the beach and I knew I had to text Jake where I was or else he would freak out.
"Don't worry Bella, you left your phone at my place remember?" Edward said as though he could read my mind.
I smiled.
"Thanks. I just have to text Jake to let him know I will not be coming home."
I could see Edward's lips go from a smile into a tight line as his brows furrowed.
"Why do you have to tell him where you are going? " He asked as his knuckles tightening on the steering wheel.
Wow what was his problem? Communicating with people was common courtesy.
"He is my friend Edward and you know, you are not the only one who worries about me." I said as we pulled out of the ally way.
"I should be the only one you report to." He said sternly as we drove back to his house
"What are you talking about?" I asked wondering why he had so many mood swings. What was wrong with him? Why was he happy one minute and sad the next? What was really going on inside that head of Edward Cullen?
"Well considering that you were just attacked, I need you to text me if you go out and when you come home. I need to know your well being is safe so that I can rescue you in the future." He said staring out into the road.
Wait a minute? Edward was not a parent, I didn't have to report myself to anyone. Who did he think he was?
"And what if I don't?" I asked.
"Oh you will just have to find out now won't you?" He said as he winked as we pulled into his driveway.
My breathe caught in my throat as I tried to imagine what Edward would do to me.
We entered his house and I found my phone. I checked it and wasn't surprised to see five text messages all from Jake. He was sorry for what he said. Oh crap I had totally forgotten what Jake had said and that he was fallen for me. I gulped thinking of what Edward would do if he ever found out what Jake said.
"I am going to run you a bath." He said he headed upstairs to his master bathroom. There were two sinks with a white granite counter top. There was a large gold framed mirror that stretched across the wall. To the right of the vanity was the toilet and beside the toilet was a stand up shower. But it was the large tub in front of me that grabbed my attention. It was a large tub that rested on gold claw legs. Edward had the tap on already and had put in a bit of bubble bath which smelt like lavender. How did he know I liked lavender?
"Are you going to join me?" I asked as my heart started to beat like a drum. Even though I was still a bit shaken up from my incident, my body started to pulsate as I started to remember how Edward's fingers had made me feel.
"I wish Bella, but I think you have been through a traumatic experience today and I think you need some time to relax."
"I am fine Edward. I am not a little girl. I think I know myself better than you and you should trust me when I say I am fine. Besides I think you can make me feel better." I said as I started to walk towards him.
"No Bella. Do what I say. You need to rest." He said sternly.
I stopped frozen in my tracks at Edward's rejection. He didn't want me? Why didn't he want me?
"You don't want me?" I whispered.
Edward shook his head.
"Oh course I want you. You are so fucking hot and I can't wait to have my way with you, but I don't want to rush into things with you." He explained as he ran his hand through his messy hair.
My heart started to beat quickly again as I realized he wanted me just like how I wanted him.
"Why don't you want to rush into things?" I asked.
Edward sighed as he turned off the tap.
"Because I always do. I rush into things with all the women I date and I fuck things up. I don't want to fuck things up with you. Your different than all the other woman I have dated. There is something about you that is so alluring about you Bella, you are like a drug to me and even though I have only had a bit of you I want more. But I also know I can't lose you because you already mean more to me than I ever thought possible."
"No Edward, you are alluring. Your the one that has captivated me. I haven't met a man like you before so don't worry I am not going to go anywhere." I said as I touched his cheek and crashed my lips onto his. He quickly grabbed onto my hair as our tongues danced deliriously with each other. I could here him moan as he grabbed my hair tighter. I started to touch his arm when he suddenly stopped.
"Bella, have a bath and rest. There is a bath robe for you hanging up on the door. Don't be sad, it will be worth the wait...because it will be the best fuck you have ever had" Edward said sternly as he left me to have my bath alone.
I shook my head trying to figure out what was going on with Edward aka Mr Mood Swings. But I did have to agree with Edward with one thing: the warm bath and soft bubbles did look inviting.
I took off my bikini top and bottoms and stepped in the hot tub. Ahh the water felt so refreshing and the bubbles wrapped around me like a blanket making me feel safe and secure. I sighed thinking about my life. Why did I feel such a strong connection to him? Why did he have giant mood swings and what was with his past? What would have happened if Edward hadn't been there for me today? I shivered at the thought. No don't think like that, he saved me and I am okay. Why couldn't that be his hands all over me? I moaned just thinking of him. Then I saw the small faint lines across my wrist in the water. I cringed as I felt a wave of nausea hit me as a flood of memories washed over me like a tidal wave. I remembered the feeling of hopelessnes and depression. I shook my head, trying to shake the memories from my mind.
Edward wasn't the only one with a past. I had one too that no one knew of. But I couldn't think of that now. All I could think of was the way that vibrator felt on my clit and how his cock would feel inside of me. I moaned as I thought of a way to get what I wanted. Edward wasn't going to tell me when I was ready to have sex with him, I called the shots.
After I felt as though I was well rested, I got out of the bath tub an drained the water. I towel dried my hair and pulled on the white fluffy bathroom that he had left for me.
I imagined a man like Edward would have more than one vibrator so I decided to walk into his bed room and check his night table. His room was light gray with light blue pillows and blue comfortable. My skin flushed just thinking of lying in the sheets with him. I opened the second drawer and gasped when I saw not one but five different types of vibrators. There were boxes of condoms, handcuffs and other sex toys that I did not recognize. I quickly grabbed the first vibrator I saw and placed it in one of the pockets.
I crept slowly out of the room trying to figure where Edward was. I quickly heard his voice coming from downstairs. He was talking on the phone.
"I know.. I know... But I don't want to see him. DON'T YOU FUCKING GET THAT?" I heard his voice echoing throughout the house. Maybe my idea wasn't such a good idea? No I had to this. This would be good for both of us.
I marched down the stairs with a newly found confidence and found Edward in his office. He was sitting in his leather chair and had his fist clenched on the table.
I wondered who he was talking to but realized that I had to focus on my mission. Edward quickly looked up at me as I walked into his office. I stood against the wall and pulled the vibrator out of the pocket. Edward's eyes with wide with shock as I rolled the bath robe up to my waist.
Now I was in control.
