Chapter 18

• I have no idea what Alice means by that, but she doesn't seem interested in explaining any further.
• I can't help but shoot one final look in Jasper's direction, but instead my eyes are drawn to a pair of powerful, emerald eyes. Edward is sitting near Jasper and Maria. His eyes are trained on mine while a brunette kisses down his neck. Her hands roam all over his strong body. I feel as though someone has kicked me in my gut. My wolf growls out and snaps in the girl's, or is it Edward's, direction. Unexplainable anger and hurt burns within me. Edward's brow lifts arrogantly in question, almost as if he is daring me to react. The soft smiles he sent me earlier are now gone.
• I grab Alice's hand and turn away from his smoldering gaze quickly. Trying to ignore the unexplainable surge of emotions boiling within me, I pull Alice with me away from Jasper and Edward.
