“Well, I had to wait until your criminal left you alone. Are you really engaged to that…” Alec paused as his face twisted in anger. “…rapist.”
“He was cleared of that charge. He’s not a rapist and yes we are engaged.” She started to rise and he placed his hand on her, pushing her down.
“Why on earth would you lower your standards like that?”
“Fuck you, Alec. Get the hell away from me.”
“Oh Bella, I have missed you. We were so good together. Don’t you remember?” he said as his fingers grazed her cheek.
Bella narrowed her eyes before slapping him. “Don’t. Fucking. Touch. Me”
He grabbed her arms, smiling. “So feisty.”
“Get your hands off of her,” Edward growled out as he tossed Alec away from Bella.
Alec landed on the ground by the bench. He glanced up at Edward, the rage inside him coming to the surface. He rose to his feet, brushing off his coat and slacks. He stared at Edward indifferent, not fazed by the look of hostility on his face. This is what you wanted, he reminded himself.
“This doesn't concern you,” Alec stated coolly.
“To hell it doesn't.” Edward stepped closer to him.
“Everything that relates to Bella concerns me. Now, stay the hell away from us before I’m forced to hurt you.”
“I’ll call the police,” Alec stated angrily but there was an element of fear there as well.
“Go ahead. I’m a free man,” Edward replied with a sly smirk on his face. “I’m sure they’d be interested in knowing that you stalked us here.”
Alec glanced passed Edward and could see the security guard approaching. He smiled, “I’ll take that under consideration, convict.”
Before Edward could respond he heard someone behind him.
“Fuck you, Alec. Get the hell away from me.”
“Oh Bella, I have missed you. We were so good together. Don’t you remember?” he said as his fingers grazed her cheek.
