Loving A Ghost Through Him 20
Everyone thought Bella was hopelessly devoted to Alec, shielding him from harm and serving as his humble secretary. In truth, she had only approached him as a substitute for her late lover, Dean, and to fulfill Dean's final wish to care for him for seven years. Over those years, Alec stood by as Emma relentlessly humiliated and hurt her. Bella repeatedly risked her life for him, from death-defying races to skydives. Yet, by the time Alec finally realized his feelings, she had long been worn down by disappointment and was determined to leave.
