Chapter Twenty-Four
A howl echoed through the night air, greeting me. Looking up from the fresh body I knew that one of the wolves had seen me kill someone. Looks like the cat was out of the bag a lot sooner than I expected.
I thought it'd take them at least five minutes.
Turning I took a step towards the house before noticing someone staring at me.
"Edward," I said, seeing the look on his face.
He appeared to be in pain.
Before I had the chance to understand what the vampire wanted or why he was staring at me with such emotions, I found a pair of cold hands touching my face before a pair of lips were crushed into mine. My hands moved, pulling him closer to me as my heart started to thunder in my chest.
This was what I wanted.
I wanted him to kiss me and love me. I wanted him to return my feelings. I wanted him to realize that I was better than Bella.
While she would die from her fragileness I would be alive.
As his hands moved from my face it dawned on me that this wasn't what I was trying to make it out to be. He was trying to trick me... and I don't get why.
Confused and hurt I pushed him back, tears feeling my eyes.
He was trying to use me again.
"What the hell!" I hissed, giving him no time to react as I slammed my fist into his face. "I know you still love that human, so why the hell are you kissing me!" I demanded.
Pain stabbed my heart.
Edward looks startled. "You killed someone! We can't have you walking around without your humanity," Edward tried, looking behind me.
"He tried to kill me!" I growled. "Why did you kiss me?"
"To bring you back to your senses!" Edward snapped.
"Oh, so kissing someone that isn't your girlfriend is perfectly okay! You bastard!" I once again slammed my hand into his face wishing that he would bruise.
Seeing him turn black and blue would no doubt make me feel better.
"I hate you!" I snarled at him.
"Belle!" He reached out to touch my arm. "I'm sorry."
I flinched, stepping away from him.
"Unless you want the humans to find this you should hurry and clean it up." I disappeared into the woods.
Nothing gave him the right to do that. Nothing gave him the right to continue to use my emotions against me.
I hated that I loved him.
I hated that I almost fall for his trick.
I hated that I couldn't hate the human that was keeping him from me.
Why couldn't I erase my emotions and feelings for him.
Why couldn't I just be free of him.
Why can't he love me?
