My Bully’s Love by Stacy Rush

Chapter 20

CHAPTER 20: COMING HOME

Coming Home

Walking into my house, a strong floral scent hit me right away. Looking around, the room is filled with an assortment of colorful flowers. A banner hangs over one of the doorways saying, ‘GET WELL’. My mother gasps behind me, so apparently, she knows nothing about this, but then I see movement out of the corner of my eye as Jace comes into the room holding a single red rose. I hold my breath waiting as he walks towards me.

“I just wanted to do something special for you, you know, to cheer you up.” He holds the rose out for me to take.

Not knowing what else to do, I reach out and take it, automatically bringing it to my nose to smell. This, right here, makes me want to cry. I keep trying to push him away, but he keeps coming back, breaking me a little more each time. I can hear my parents saying something, but I’m not paying any attention. I’m too wrapped up in staring at the guy in front of me, his gorgeous smile, now turning into a smirk. He knows what he’s doing, and even though it irritates me, it also makes me want to submit to him. The urge to drop to my knees and hug his legs is overwhelming, but instead, I clear my throat and smile.

“Thank you, Jace. You didn’t have to go through all this. A simple “Get Well” would have sufficed.” I glance back down to study the flower in my hand because Jace’s gaze is too intense for me. I’m not used to any kind of attention, and definitely none to this magnitude.

My parents leave the room, giving us some privacy, but I’m too nervous to be left in a room alone with him. I try to follow them, but Jace takes hold of my hand to keep me in place.

“I need to talk to you, Ella.”

His face looks tense, but I don’t know if it’s because he has something important to talk to me about or if it’s because I was going to walk away.. Nodding, I walk as fast as my broken ribs allow me to walk and sit down on the couch. Jace shakes his head and without saying anything, he picks me up bridal-style and takes me upstairs to my room. It isn’t until he has me in my bed with my head propped up, and my shoes off, that he talks.

“You need to rest, Ella. I’m not going to touch you, so there is no need to be scared of me.” He sounds stern, but his eyes show something else. He’s a little hurt that I am afraid to be around him, but can he really blame me? I snuggle down under the covers a little more before giving him my attention.

“I’m sorry, Jace. I’m just not sure how to act around you anymore,” I bite my lip to keep a sob back, “For so long, I had to walk on eggshells around you, and I wasn’t allowed to talk to you unless you asked me a question.” I glance down and pick at one of my nails, thinking about what I had just said. I snort, and then focus back on him, “You were training me to be submissive all this time, haven’t you?” I ask.

“I told you that you would learn to submit to me, why do you sound surprised?” He tilts his head as he asks.

“No, I’m talking about the past two years. I mean, in the very beginning you were really mean to me, but now that I think about it, the longer it went on, the more it changed.” I consider him for a moment, “Be honest, Jace, you told me that you trained to be a Dominant – who did you have in mind as a sub when you began?”

“I have nothing to hide from you, Ella. I’ve already told you; it’s always been you.” He never takes his eyes off me as he answers each of my questions.

“Why me?” I whisper.

“I’ve always had an urge to protect you and always make you happy,” he shrugs, “It’s always felt natural to me, I knew that we were meant to be together. I was almost about to give up until a gave you that first punishment, and that’s when I knew I was right about you.”
