Proving Her Wrong

She's Bella Wilson

Chapter 23
Derek's POV 😈

I always get things my way.

What I want, I get.

In a mere second, I will get it at my possession.

It has always been as simple as that.

But I guess anything related to Bella has never been remotely easy.

And I don't dislike that. I mean it is infuriating, however she always manages to keep me on my toes.

She is entertaining and one thing I know for sure is that I will never be bored with her.

But she is not a challenge or a source of entertainment. She is a lunatic who puts the well-being of others first; like the time she tried to protect me when we were kidnapped, a girl who is broken yet fearless.

I promised to prove her wrong. I vowed to always be by her side and I plan to do that at whatever cost.

I really do not know what exactly made me come up with this decision.

Maybe it's just because she is Bella Wilson.

Everything about her is so alluring, her cute reactions, her mildly violent behaviors, her perseverance, the love she has for her loved ones and even her insecure side. She doesn't even see how amazing she is. I mean of course that woman is cocky but I know her comments are playful.

It is crazy how a few months ago I had no clue who she was and now all I can think of is her.

I looked down at the angel who leaning on my shoulder asleep. Her lashes were long and touched her cheeks, some baby hairs all over the place and her plump rosy lips which were in a small pout.

I couldn't help but smile at the sight.

Unfortunately, it did not last long before she was pulled into the shoulder of Prince Charming.

"Sorry, about my girlfriend," he emphasized.

His tone was playful but his intentions weren't.

I am very possessive of what belongs to me.
Once something is mine, it is mine and mine alone.

Therefore, Diego's comment irked me to no end.

Hence, I was about to throw him a punch when the car abruptly came to a stop jerking Bella's body into me. She groaned as we collided.

"Ace, " I gritted out murderously.

"We are here." The dirty blond replied sheepishly while shrugging his shoulders innocently.

I look down at Bella who yawned as her eyes fluttered open and looked at me with her big grey eyes.

She shot me a lazy smile as she snuggled closer to me and sighed in satisfaction.

I smirked triumphantly at Diego who shot me a nasty glare.

"Bella, let's go in," Diego said. She turned to him and nodded her head hesitantly before turning to me. She stared right back at me for a few moments and there so many emotions swirling through her eyes. I was unable to translate them into thoughts before she quickly left my embrace and took Diego's hand and hopped out of the car.
