Chapter 60

　　Flashback Continues...

　　Niccolo Point of View

　　Huff, why is this so complicated?

　　I was hoping for something and the situation turned to something else completely. And I know who the reason behind it was.

　　Leonardo!

　　If he did not speak to Bella that way in the restaurant and infill her brain with useless feed, then she would've not done what she did.

　　I was angered by her actions, no doubt but I was more hurt than angry. It hurt me to see her put herself through the struggle because of what people said around her. She knew I would never touch her until we have deep feelings for each other still she resorted to allure me into a sexual relation.

　　She is not completely wrong though.

　　Damn, sometimes I curse myself for understanding her predicament as well. I just don't want to care about anything and lash out without turning back but it seems to be a hard task when Bella was involved.
