“Axel, are you moving away?” she asked quietly, the distance between them pronounced since that fateful night.
“Yes,” he confirmed, leaving her heart sinking. He was physically distancing himself, going to the lengths of moving away. The realization hit her hard.
If he didn’t want her, while did be keep acting concerned and sending rides to ensure her safety. She was tired of the push and pull game.
Feeling the weight of his decision, she pleaded, “Axel, stop sending the rides. I don’t need them. I’m fine now; you caught the stalker.” Her voice wavered with a hint of emotion. “So please stop. Thank you for everything and Goodnight.”
With that, she retreated into her own space, collapsing onto her bed, releasing the pent- up emotions In small s obs.
Bella finally returned home instead of the usual silence on the first floor, she met Ethan. Slouched over a stool at the wet bar of their home. She was surprised. Ethan was never home this early. His head was downwards, be didn’t seem to have noticed her.
Her fist tightened.
Hazel his ex-wife was back, he had been meeting with her and her kids. She had found out by herself. The thought made her blood boil.
But she still felt a little optimistic, she might just be imagining it. Hazel’s kids could actually be Ethan’s.
Over five years ago, she could recall, just before Hazel and Ethan’s rejection, she had asked him to promise her be wouldn’t leave her.
Ethan had assured her he would divorce Hazel. But it had come with a condition that had made him really nervous. He wouldn’t be able to divorce Hazel, if she was pregnant. At that time she had become anxious. But then, Hazel’s pregnancy tests had come out negative, that very day she had moved into Ethan’s house. Ethan was thorough, four test strips had been used, Hazel was definitely not pregnant when she Left. There had to be some other reasons as to why he was seeing them.

Bella’s surprise grew as Ethan’s behavior became increasingly erratic.

unsteady movements.
“Ethan are you drunk?” She asked in surprise a frown forming on her face.
In their over five years of being together, Ethan had never been drunk, he barely drank despite his ability to handle alcohol.
The thought crossed Bella’s mind – was he trying to avoid a repetition of the day he claimed her as his mate? On that day, he Had also been drunk.
“I’m not drunk, I only had a little.” Ethan denied with a slur.
That little seemed to be more than enough, Ethan’s tolerance of alcohol was apparently

Her frown deepened. Did it have something to do with the drug? She wondered.
