Chapter 189 CHAPTER 189: PRIMAL INSTINCTS

NICO’S POV

Bella was easily one of the most beautiful things I’d ever seen.

But now, as she stormed towards me, it was like she took on a new form—ethereal, borderline otherworldly.

And when she grabbed Clara’s hand and tore it away from my chest, shoving her away, my heart skipped a beat.

She planted herself between us, the warmth of her body seeping into me.

“Get the fuck away from him,” she repeated with a—hold up, growl?

Clara’s eyes widened as she took a step back, her hands up. “I’m sorry, I wasn’t—”

She gasped sharply, and my eyes widened when Bella slapped a hand against her chest, shoving Clara back so hard that she hit the wall behind her.

She glanced at me, a pleading look in her eyes, but Bella snarled.

“Don’t you dare look at him!”

I couldn’t see Bella’s face, but her voice shook with a strange fury, and the fear on Clara’s face was an indicator of just how scary Bella must have looked.

“He’s mine, and if I catch you near him again, I’ll kill you, understand?”
