She burst into laughter. "Oh, husband, it's not like that."
She nudged his shoulder. "while I'm capable of saying something like that, I'm also the same person who would do everything possible to make sure nothing ever happened to you in the first place."
Her smile softened. "So, you see… obtaining that third requirement was always going to be difficult."
They both smiled, the conversation went quiet.
Ethan looked at her for a moment before asking, "So how do you plan on fulfilling that requirement?"
Dark Bella let out a little laugh and shook her head. "Other than waiting until I naturally recover the other half of my power…I honestly don't know."
For a moment, neither of them said anything. Then Ethan smiled and said, "Thank you for telling me."
She nodded, and after a few seconds passed, she suddenly spoke again. "Alright. You can have Isabella back now… she's been yelling in my head all day."
