Fallen Into Hell: Fallen: Book 2 by Layna Snow (best romance books of all time .TXT) 📕

She couldn’t just avoid her problems. She couldn’t keep running away. Sophie knew that the time had come to face the music.

It had been hours since she had left the guys in the middle of town. Hours that she had spent in the cemetery.

She hadn’t been able to talk to her sister, but hoped that Annie could hear her, nonetheless. After pouring her thoughts and worries to her sister, Sophie had hoped that she’d get some type of sign. But she hadn’t.

The grounds were as still as ever. No one else visited their loved ones. No one was currently tending to the graves. It was just her, alone to weep and beg for her twin to do something to show that she was alright. That Sophie would be alright too.

It wasn’t fair!

She shouldn’t have to lose her twin sister this young! She shouldn’t have to go on without that one being who had always known her, had always been there! She shouldn’t be pregnant and alone, after having her heart ripped from her chest! And she shouldn’t be in love with two wonderful, imperfect, aggravating men!

And it wasn’t like in the movies where she could call up her mother for some words of advice, or crash on her best friend’s couch until the tears dried up and they were full on ice cream. The only person in the world who she could rely on was gone forever!

It was one of the reasons, she had to admit to herself now, that she had left Hell in the first place. She needed to talk to someone, to get her thoughts and feelings straight. She had freaked out when her emotions got too overwhelming.

She knew that she was being unrealistic with her expectations.

But when she came back, expecting to talk to her sister about the issue, to get advice, Annie was gone. She wanted to talk to Brooke, but the woman was ignoring her. The only person who seemed to want to know what was happening in her life was Emily. And Sophie hadn’t felt comfortable revealing everything that happened in Hell.

It was bad enough that she had to go over some of it with Melody, Seth, and Caleb! But she hadn’t mentioned Adrian and Thane!

And now, the boys were in town, wanting to talk. So Sophie went to the only place she could still find peace.

Getting a cab hadn’t been difficult. Getting one who would drive her all the way back to Cold Wood had. But she was here now.

She had to own up to her own thoughts and feelings and hope that the guys would do the same.

Only truth would set things straight.

Sophie sighed as her cab pulled into her driveway. Her house wasn’t right in town, it was a bit secluded, trees standing intimidatingly around the property. It was a joy to grow up there, but now, it looked ominous in the setting sun.

She paid the driver and stepped out into the cool air.

She was reluctant to go into her house. She didn’t really want to be alone anymore, but she didn’t know what other options she had.

The night was abnormally chilly, and Sophie wrapped her arms around herself as she strode to the door.

It wasn’t her house. It was her parent’s house. She knew that she’d need to move soon. She really didn’t have a choice. Just the other day her mother had mentioned the fact that they were putting the house up for sale. They wanted to stay in Barrie and didn’t need to keep this one.

It was just another thing in her life taken away from her.

For one of the last times, Sophie unlocked and opened the door. It was nice to be home, to feel the warmth of the air rushing at her again.

Home was a comforting word, a place full of love. A place where you could be yourself without fearing judgement. It was a place to relax and put your feet up. But this wasn’t going to be her home anymore.

Sophie dropped her purse blindly on the chair beside the door and turned to switch on the light.

She was almost there when a strong arm wrapped around her hips, another coming around her chest. She would have screamed, but nothing came out but air.

Oh gosh! The Alliance! Are they here?

Her mind spun horrible tales of everything that could happen. She knew at the time that she shouldn’t have contacted them! She knew what could happen. Had been a part of it already. Just the memory caused the scar on her chest to throb.

The Alliance wouldn’t stop. They never stopped! They had sent someone to investigate already!

The hard band-like arms around her held her arms to her body, not allowing her to move, and pulled her back against a strong body. A body that she knew well.

“We’ve got to stop meeting like this,” Adrian’s voice came from behind her, a purr of pleasure.

We’d stop meeting like this if you’d stop grabbing me from behind. She thought sarcastically. As if you don’t like it! A sinister part of her responded.

“As long as it has been since I’ve been in you, you’re lucky that I’m not stripping you naked and finger-fucking you on the table. But Thane says that we need to talk, yeah? We’ll sex later. And you better make it worth the wait!” He continued, pulling her closer so that she could feel the ridge against her bum.

A responding ache started up in her body.

“Do you like that idea? I can smell your heat already. You better go sit with Thane before this all gets out of control!

A click brought them around, to Thane sitting on her comfy brown couch, her vintage lamp switched on beside him.

He looked so good sitting
