Chapter 17 Teaser

:)

“I went on a cruise after my divorce and my son got mono. I was out in the middle of the ocean and didn’t even know about it until I got home. Couldn’t have done a thing even if I wanted to,” Zafrina said. “So you see Bella, it happens to everyone.”

“Yes, hello Mandy. I need to know, when is your next flight out to Seattle from San Jose? Nothing earlier? No, I understand. Can I book through to Port Angeles from there? Okay. And that gets in when? Fuck. Nothing earlier?”

The gang circled around me attempting comfort with war stories and battle wounds but all I could hear was Edward negotiating my return to Forks. A few moments later he hung up and walked towards us.

“I’m sorry, Bluebell. I can’t get you out of here until the morning. Nothing flies in or out of San Jose this late. The first flight is at 7:15 and you’re on it. But you won’t get in to Port Angeles until nearly noon. It’s the best I could do.” He crouched down at me feet and squeezed my knee.

I sucked in a breath and nodded to him as a fresh set of tears pricked my eyes.
