Meeting Innocence

JACOB POV

I pull Verona out as soon as we exit the dinner having a tight grip on her.

"What do you think you are doing?" I ask her whispering.
She manages to pull her arm out of my tight grip.

"I am the one who is supposed to ask you that question. What do you think you are doing?" She asks in a low but raged voice.

"What have I done?" I ask in confusion.

"Do you want to get the poor child killed?" She asks.

So dramatic.

"She is not a child" I say pulling my hair in frustration.

She rolls her eyes before saying "yeah whatever, but you do know that you being with her means her death right?" He asks making prolonging the word death.

"I know okay don't remind me" I say a little bit higher and in a harsh tone than intended.

"Then why are you still with her?" She asks leaning close to be face to face with me.

"I can't help it okay? I just can't, I love her Verona I really do. Believe me, I have tried to stay away from her for her own sake but I just can't, her whole being draws me in. Am in love Vero" I say and she gives me a pitiful look.
I can almost see worry and sorrow in her forest green eyes as that just draws you in.

"I just hope it will work for you." She pauses then gently pats my back like would do to comfort her child.

"Any ways.." She continues " the general as a job for you, he said you should come see him in two days times. There are some people he wants you to clear out and who else better than you can do the job?"

"Am done with that kind of work. I want to be a better man for Bella" I say as I put my hands in my stupidly expensive suit pants.

"That is so sweet, if I had tears I could be crying as we speak"

See?
So dramatic!

"But" she continues her blabbing " this is the general we are talking about here, he can do anything just to have you do whatever his dark soul desires even kidnapping sweet little Bella"

"Then I will have to kill him instead"

"Not before he kills Bella first" she cuts in.
I process the information and I realise that she is quite right.
If I say no to the general, he will do anything in his power to force me to do it.

Verona gives me a gentle huge kissing both my cheeks before saying "good bye Jacob" she says in a whisper.

"Bye" I reply as she turns and swiftly walks away.

CRAP!
My life is so fucked up.
