End-Week Sneak Peek - Surviving Bella Chap 15

Yeah, I know. I'm late with a teaser, but I have made progress on the chapter! It's coming along nicely, and as soon as I get the kids out of the room so I can write the smut, I should be about done. I don't know exactly when it will post, but I'll get it up as soon as I can. In the meantime, here's a sneak peak, as well as a couple of nice write ups on Surviving Bella and one on Judging Books!

And now for the sneak peek!

“Do you think anyone’s ever going to find us?” Bella said out of the blue.

“Yeah, eventually,” I said automatically, and then wondered if I believed it. I thought about it for a minute, and decided I did believe it. Considering the fuckers who attacked her had been in a small-sized motorboat, we couldn’t really be that far from civilization. We obviously weren’t in any kind of shipping lane, or we wouldn’t still be here, but eventually someone who wasn’t an asshole would have to come close enough to see us. As long as someone came close enough, we’d eventually be picked up.

Then what?

I could get another ship, and Bella could come live on it with me, but would she even want to? I had spent years on the water, but Bella had just been taking a vacation. Considering how it turned out, she might never want to get on another ship again, and I wouldn’t blame her. So what would we do? Go back to the states, and set up house somewhere? Then what? She could go back to school, but what the fuck would I do?

Buy a fucking huge-ass bottle of vodka, that’s what. Nice.

That’s when it hit me.

I didn’t want to be rescued.

  3. I'm curious as to why Aro hadn't tried to hunt and kill Edward for ratting him out

  4. I think that's what scares me the most. Edward's gonna want to drink when he gets rescued. He's gonna have to make a choice. Even if Bella doesn't insist that he do so, he's gonna have to choose between her and booze.

  5. Nice teaser. And some very valid questions he is asking himself. Edward should just buy an island for them to live on permanently.
