He knew it was wrong. Yet somehow he couldn’t help himself, as he stood in the kitchen doorway watching them kiss. He wished that it was his lips that Bella was kissing and not Edward’s. He envied the way she looked at him, with such love and admiration.
Carlisle had no idea how it happened, how he fell for her. It was strange, the impact she had on him, something that no human had ever done. He’d kept his thoughts careful around Edward, he couldn’t know, and either could any of the others.
“Carlisle? Are you alright?” he heard the sweet voice of his wife behind him.
Smiling, he turned. “I’m fine dear,” he said. He would bury these feelings deep within him, for she was Edward’s, not his. And would never be.
